In this episode, we delve into the critical role of neuroprotection in pre-hospital care, particularly in pediatric head injuries. Through a real-life case study of a 13-year-old boy who suffered a traumatic brain injury after being hit by a car, we explore the steps taken by paramedics and critical care teams to stabilize him and prevent further neurological damage. From airway management to advanced interventions, this episode highlights the challenges of pre-hospital neuroprotection and the incredible teamwork that led to the patient’s remarkable recovery.
