Sponsored by Methodist Health System · Observational
This retrospective data repository will serve as a means to aggregate and analyze standard surgical interventions and Middle Meningeal Arteryembolization as suitable treatment options for Acute Subdural Hematoma.
The primary objective of this study is to establish a data repository permissive of quality improvement studies/observations specific to patients with Acute Subdural Hematoma and evaluate impact of surgical interventions like burr hole trephination, Craniotomy, Decompressive Craniectomy, and Middle Meningeal Arteryembolization embolization on survival outcomes.
Acute subdural hematoma, a consequential manifestation within 72 hours post-trauma, is a major cause of morbidity and mortality following severe traumatic brain injury. In patients where Acute subdural hematoma is accompanied by progressive neurologic deficits or substantial mass effect, prompt surgical intervention via craniotomy or decompressive craniectomy serves as the standard approach to mitigate the risk of further morbidity and mortality.
Exclusion Criteria:
This study will include all trauma patients who meet registry inclusion and arrive at the Methodist Dallas Medical Center trauma bay with Acute subdural hematoma . Enrollment will terminate once adequate number of interventions have been observed for clinical significance to be established.
Other: Medical/Phenotype Data Collection Procedures & Data to be Collected
TheMethodist Dallas Medical Center Trauma Registry will be queried for demographic information, diagnosis codes, admission dates, traumatic injury characteristics, surgical procedures, comorbidities, inpatient outcomes, complications, consultations, discharge location, and mortality. Additional laboratory values will be abstracted from Epic through retrospective chart review.
