In brief
This prospective cohort study examines health literacy levels among caregivers of injured children at a Level One pediatric trauma center. The research identifies factors associated with low health literacy that may impact a child's recovery, given that effective post-injury care requires caregiver understanding of complex medical and rehabilitative instructions.
Written by the GCMD Library team from the article.
Low health literacy (HL) has been associated with poor health outcomes in children. Optimal recovery after pediatric injury requires caregiver participation in complicated rehabilitative and medical aftercare. We aimed to quantify HL among guardians of injured children and identify factors associated with low HL of guardians.
