OBJECTIVES: Helmets use has proved effective in reducing head trauma (HT) severity in children riding non-motorised recreational vehicles. Scant data are available on their role in reducing concussive symptoms in children with HT while riding non-motorised recreational vehicles such as bicycles, push scooters and skateboards (BSS). We aimed to investigate whether helmet use is associated with a reduction in acute concussive symptoms in children with BSS-related-HT.
METHODS: Prospective study of children <18 years who presented with a BSS related-HT between April 2011 and January 2014 at a tertiary Paediatric Emergency Department (ED).
RESULTS: We included 190 patients. Median age 9.4 years (IQR 4.8-13.8). 66% were riding a bicycle, 23% a push scooter, and 11% a skateboard. 62% were wearing a helmet and 62% had at least one concussive symptom. Multivariate logistic regression analysis adjusting for age, gender, and type of vehicle showed that patients without a helmet presented more likely with headache (adjusted odds-ratio (aOR) 2.54, 95% CI 1.27-5.06), vomiting (aOR 2.16, 95% CI 1.00-4.66), abnormal behaviour (aOR 2.34, 95% CI 1.08-5.06), or the presence of at least one concussive symptom (aOR 2.39, 95% CI 1.20-4.80).
CONCLUSIONS: In children presenting to the ED following a wheeled BSS-related HT helmet use was associated with less acute concussive symptoms.
