Predictors of long-term sibling behavioral outcome and self-esteem following pediatric traumatic brain injury.

Objectives: To determine predictors of self-esteem and behavioral outcome among siblings of children with traumatic brain injury (TBI).

Design: Cross-sectional.

Participants: Thirty-nine siblings closest in age to a child who sustained moderate to severe TBI.

Paediatric traumatic brain injury: a review of siblings' outcome.

Primary Objective: This review aimed to identify main findings and critically evaluate literature that considered sibling outcomes following paediatric traumatic brain injury (TBI) sustained by a brother or sister.

Methods: Qualitative and quantitative papers on the topic of TBI from PubMed and PsychINFO were reviewed. Identified literature was manually cross-referenced and all papers that identified siblings as the main subject of research or as secondary to research aims were included.
