Summary
This study looked at 126 children and young adults (up to age 25) with serious, non-progressive neurological diseases like cerebral palsy or brain injury. Researchers wanted to understand the best time to introduce a pediatric palliative care team. They reviewed medical records from the first year of care to see what kind of support was given first, such as symptom management or care coordination.
