Brief Summary:
The objective of this prospective study is to evaluate the reliability of plain x-rays vscranial computed tomography as a screening method for skull fractures and its prognostic value for intracranial bleeding ICB
Detailed Description:
In a consecutive patients series of about 12500 blunt head injuries were observed during a 16 month period in a prospective analysis
Based on a retrospective study we created a checklist of individual patients data which was completed for each patient
In accordance with the institutions guidelines all patients with blunt head injury received plain skull x-ray in 2 plains and additional cranial CT-scan CCT in case of fracture or neurological symptoms We developed also an diagnostic algorithm consisting of anamnestical data and clinical signs and symptoms to define these risk factors and to catch all patients with minor head injury who are at risk to develop intracranial bleeding
