“…Children ≤ 5 years are at a particularly high risk for exposure to potentially traumatic events due to their dependence on caregivers. Negligence of the guardian and some behavioural conditions like attention defi cit hyperactivity disorder are added risk factors (Bayar et al, 2015). In children, apart from the clinical signs and symptoms being diff erent from that in adults, they also do not complain of pain or visual problems and hence risk delay in seeing a doctor.…”

Purpose: To study the clinico-microbiological profile and evaluate the functional and anatomical outcomes of pediatric post-traumatic endophthalmitis (PPTE). Methods: This was a retrospective interventional case series. All medical case records of patients diagnosed with PPTE over a 5-year period from January 2011 to December2015 were reviewed. Data recorded was: age, sex, type of trauma, mode of injury, interval between trauma and presentation, treatment, follow-up duration and final functional and anatomical outcomes. Results: Forty-one eyes of 41 patients diagnosed with PPTE met the inclusion criteria. There were 26 boys and 15 girls. The mean age at the time of presentation was 7.34 years (1month -16years). The median interval between trauma and presentation was 3 days (mean = 13.71 days; 1-240 days). The average follow-up period was 292.24 days (median 150 days; 30 1440 days). Injury with wooden stick (20,50%) was the most common mode of injury. Culture positivity was noted in 25(61%) cases. Staphylococcusaureus was the most common organisms identified on culture. Univariate analysis of in dependent variables was done using the Chi-square test showed patients with positive culture for gram-positive organisms had better anatomical (p=0.038) and functional outcomes (p=0.043). 35(85%) patients underwent vitrectomy along with intraocular antibiotics. Optimal anatomical and functional outcomes were noted in 23(56.1%) and12(29.3%) respectively. Conclusion: PPTE carries a significantly poor prognosis in terms of ocular integrity and visual function. PPTE is common in boys and often caused by vegetative matter. Staphylococcus aureus is the most common organism seen in PPTE. Early presentation following trauma and identification of gram-positive organisms have a better prognosis.

“…In addition, previous studies have shown an association with ADHD symptoms in various injury types including poisonings, extremity fractures, traumatic dental injuries, eye injuries, burn injuries and ear and nose foreign body insertions. The findings of those studies have concluded that children and adolescents with ADHD are more prone to injury and trauma compared to healthy peers [17][18][19][20][21][22][23]. Many studies have reported that ADHD can develop after head trauma [24][25][26][27].…”

The findings of this study suggest that preschool children with MHI have more pre-injury ADHD symptoms and oppositional and emotional-behavioural symptoms than healthy children without trauma. Clinicians should screen children with MHI for ADHD symptoms and refer them for treatment when necessary. Evaluation of children presenting with MHI by a child psychiatrist may prevent repetition of injuries.

“…In the literature review, only two studies carried out on the relationship between penetrating eye traumas and ADHD in children can be found. [ 15 22 ] The significant association found in their studies gives rise to consider the negative impact of ADHD on the ocular traumas in pediatric patients. [ 15 22 ] This study intends to investigate the role of ADHD-related clinical findings in ocular traumas in adult population, which to the best of our knowledge has not yet been studied.…”

Purpose: To investigate the potential relationship between ocular trauma and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)-related clinical outcomes in adults. Methods: This prospective case-control study included 108 ocular trauma patients and 90 age-sex-matched healthy control. The ocular trauma group was separated into the subgroups home accident, outdoor activity, and work related in terms of the reasons for ocular trauma, and as ocular surface problems, blunt trauma-related, and open globe injury in terms of the clinical findings. The ADHD-related clinical outcomes were evaluated using the Wender-Utah Rating Scale (WURS). The outcomes were compared between ocular trauma and control groups, and ocular trauma subgroups. Results: The demographic characteristics of ocular trauma groups and controls were similar ( P > 0.05, for all). In comparison to the control group, the ocular trauma group had higher total WURS score and WURS subscale scores, but not significantly ( P > 0.05, for all). According to comparisons of the subgroups separated by the reasons, there was significant difference in the mean behavioral problems/impulsivity scores in favor of outdoor activities ( P = 0.015). On the other hand, the mean scores for WURS subscales of the subgroups separated by the clinical findings were similar ( P > 0.05, for all) Conclusion: WURS scores in ocular trauma patients are similar to control; however, the score in behavioral problems/impulsivity subscales is higher for ocular trauma caused by outdoor activities.
