In Western countries, traumas represent one of the main causes of morbidity and mortality in pediatric age. There are few studies on the effectiveness of early rehabilitation in pediatric intensive care. The aim of this prospective observational study was to measure the effectiveness of early rehabilitation treatment in children affected by multiple trauma through the application of a multi-dimensional and interdisciplinary protocol.
