NCT ID NCT05261477
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a bilingual program called 1stBIEN for Hispanic children (ages 3-17) recovering from traumatic brain injury. The program provides in-person education, mobile videos, and a navigator to help families access outpatient care and school support. Researchers will measure whether it improves treatment attendance and quality of life compared to standard care.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

- Bilingual brain injury education and outpatient navigation program
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this program could improve recovery and quality of life for Hispanic children after traumatic brain injury by helping families access and stick with rehabilitation.
- What could go wrong
- This is a behavioral intervention, not a drug or device, so benefits may be modest. The trial is still recruiting, and results may not apply to all families or regions.
