“…The result reveals that when adolescents experience a higher number of ACEs, they may have lower well‐being and higher health complaints and healthcare utilization. The finding aligns with the literature, which shows that ACEs yield a substantial difference in children's and adolescents' subjective well‐being (Leiva et al, 2022). Poor subjective well‐being may expose adolescents to risks of emotional disorders (Diener, Pressman, et al, 2017; Leiva et al, 2022).…”

Poor subjective well-being may expose adolescents to risks of emotional disorders (Diener, Pressman, et al, 2017;Leiva et al, 2022). Thus, preventing the occurrence of ACEs might contribute to enhancing adolescents' positive moods, interests, and vitality and all of these positive aspects are important for healthy and productive development (Wiium et al, 2023).…”

Scant studies have investigated adverse childhood experience (ACE) outcomes and mastery during adolescence in different cultural contexts. This cross‐sectional study examines the impact of ACEs on subjective well‐being, health complaints, and healthcare utilization during late adolescence, including the mediating role of the sense of mastery in the Saudi context. Adolescents (N = 396) aged 17–21 years were recruited via convenience sampling from colleges and local communities from two regions in Saudi Arabia. Data were collected using a paper‐pencil anonymous survey and analyzed using path analysis. Of the sample, 85.5% experienced at least one ACE. ACEs had a direct effect on subjective well‐being (p = 0.034), health complaints (p < 0.001), healthcare utilization (p < 0.001), and sense of mastery (p < 0.001). Sense of mastery had an effect on subjective well‐being (p < 0.001) and health complaints (p < 0.001), but not on healthcare utilization (p = 0.436). Sense of mastery partially mediated the relationship between ACEs and subjective well‐being (p = 0.034) and health complaints (p < 0.001), but not healthcare utilization (p = 0.438). ACEs have detrimental effects on adolescent health. Attention should be paid to primary prevention and early detection to avoid further harm, and interventions that address the role of the sense of mastery should be developed for adolescents.

“…Stress may be especially detrimental during early rapid brain development, skewing ongoing formation of brain pathways and structure towards vulnerability. Studies on adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) have informed how toxic stress can impact child development and health and wellbeing into adulthood, including chronic physical, mental and social health problems [ 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 ]. Despite being less researched, exposure to counter-ACEs—positive childhood experiences—seems to protect against ill health and to foster improved health and wellbeing throughout adulthood [ 17 ].…”

Brain-Directed Care: Why Neuroscience Principles Direct PICU Management beyond the ABCs

et al. 2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Major advances in pediatric intensive care (PICU) have led to increased child survival. However, the long-term outcomes among these children following PICU discharge are a concern. Most children admitted to PICU are under five years of age, and the stressors of critical illness and necessary interventions can affect their ability to meet crucial developmental milestones. Understanding the neuroscience of brain development and vulnerability can inform PICU clinicians of new ways to enhance and support the care of these most vulnerable children and families. This review paper first explores the evidence-based neuroscience principles of brain development and vulnerability and the impact of illness and care on children’s brains and ultimately wellbeing. Implications for clinical practice and training are further discussed to help optimize brain health in children who are experiencing and surviving a critical illness or injury.
