View clinical trials related to Acute Subdural Hematoma.
Filter by:Acute subdural hematoma (ASDH) is the most common intracranial traumatic lesion that requires surgical intervention. Although there is extensive published research on acute subdural, there remains uncertainty regarding mortality risk and functional outcomes for patients. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of contemporary scoring systems in different age groups of ASDH patients to predict functional outcomes.
In a multi-national population-based cohort, the investigators want to compare the clinical course and clinical outcome of elderly patients (≥70 y/o) compared with younger patients (< 70 y/o) with acute subdural hematoma treated surgically. An improved understanding of the clinical outcome and the prognostic factors of acute subdural hematomas would allow physicians to make better decisions about treatment options in traumatic ASDH in the elderly population.
