The goal of this observational study is to identify blood biomarkers that could help in the management of paediatric patients with mild TBI. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. How can blood biomarkers reduce unnecessary CT scan and reduce the length of stay at the emergency department? 2. How can blood biomarker predict post-concussion symptoms? Participants will have a blood sample taken when they are admitted at emergency department and will receive a questionnaire describing their symptoms 14 days and 3 months after their trauma.
