Brief Summary: At the emergencies rooms patients with head trauma meeting one of the NICE criteria which include antiplatelet inhibitors treatment are considered as patients with a risk of cerebral haemorrage and are taken systematically for a CT-scanner

However there are more and more antiplatelet inhibitors patient with minor head injury traumas seen at the emergencies room and the efficiency of this NICE criteria is controversial on litterature

This study aims to determine that the absence of no other NICE criteria than antiplatelet inhibitors is a sufficient condition to eliminate a cerebral haemorrhage for patients with head injury traumas and conversely that antiplatelet inhibitors treatment would not be by itself an indication for a CT-scanner
Detailed Description: Head injuries are a frequent reason for emergency services and according to studies they represent between 5 and 10 of patients treated in emergencies Among them 90 are minor head injury traumas NICE criteria has been defined to establish patients who need a CT-scanner because of a risk of cerebral haemorrhage

NICE criteria include several conditions including taking antiplatelet inhibitors However the real risk of cerebral haemorrhage for theses cases is controversial in litterature In parallel more and more patients undergoing antiplatelet inhibitors treatment are seen in emergencies after a head injury trauma

In routine protocol at the emergency rooms these patients are seen for a clinical exam and next submitted to a CT-scanner If the clinician cant detect a cerebral haemorrage the patient will return at home

This study aims to determine that the absence of no other NICE criteria than antiplatelet inhibitors treatment is a sufficient condition to eliminate a cerebral haemorrhage for patients with head injury traumas and conversely that antiplatelet inhibitors treatment would not be by itself an indication for a CT-scanner

This is a diagnostic case-only prospective multicenter study with a blinded primary outcome measure assessment

As described in routine protocol in this study antiplatelet inhibitors patients with head injury trauma will be seen for a clinical exam and next submitted to a CT-scanner After a month patient will be called by the clinical center to ask about morbidity and mortality Especially clinicans will report on the emergence of a cerebral haemorrhage during this month
