Résumé
It has been estimated that around 31% of children will experience a traumatic event during childhood, most commonly serious accidents that lead to hospitalisation. Around 15% of children who experience such events go onto develop post-traumatic stress disorder. Emergency department (ED) clinicians have a unique opportunity to intervene during the early peri-trauma period, which can involve incorporating a trauma-informed approach within their care. The available evidence indicates that clinicians internationally need further education and training to enhance their knowledge and confidence in providing trauma-informed psychosocial care. However, UK/Ireland specific knowledge is limited. The current study analysed the UK and Irish subset of data ( Clinicians reported moderate levels of confidence in providing psychosocial care to injured children and families ( The findings highlight the need for further training in psychosocial care for ED clinicians. Future research must identify nationally relevant pathways to implement training programmes for clinicians, in order to improve their skills in relation to paediatric traumatic stress and to reduce the perception of barriers identified in the present study.

It has been estimated that around 31% of children will experience a traumatic event during childhood, most commonly serious accidents that lead to hospitalisation. Around 15% of children who experience such events go onto develop post-traumatic stress disorder. Emergency department (ED) clinicians have a unique opportunity to intervene during the early peri-trauma period, which can involve incorporating a trauma-informed approach within their care. The available evidence indicates that clinicians internationally need further education and training to enhance their knowledge and confidence in providing trauma-informed psychosocial care. However, UK/Ireland specific knowledge is limited.

Conclusions
UNASSIGNED
The findings highlight the need for further training in psychosocial care for ED clinicians. Future research must identify nationally relevant pathways to implement training programmes for clinicians, in order to improve their skills in relation to paediatric traumatic stress and to reduce the perception of barriers identified in the present study.
