Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
It is the first clinical biological evaluation of severity of head injury based on dosing of copeptin alone or associated with protein S100B.
Furthermore, the evaluation of the biomarkers GFAP, NFL, Tau and UCH-L1 is today necessary from a scientific point of view and to optimize the diagnostic and prognostic value of these biomarkers which can be combined. Indeed, these protein biomarkers are biologically linked to the protein S100B and copeptin, and will allow a more specific and more thorough evaluation of the presence of brain damage at the cellular level. More specifically, the measurement of the S-100B and GFAP proteins will allow evaluation of gliovascular damage while those of copeptin, NFL, Tau and UCH-L1 proteins will allow evaluation of neuronal damage. The assay of these different biomarkers will also be carried out on a control population, without head injury or neurological or inflammatory pathologies, in order to establish the standards of these biomarkers on a pediatric population of similar age.

Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Each patient will attend a visit of inclusion and a blood sample. Just patients with a suspicion of head injury have a visit at 96 hours +/- 24 hours after the inclusion: this visit is made by phone. The patient and his parents will have to answer to a phone questionnaire
