Data Registry for Acute Subdural Hematoma Treatments Including Surgical and Middle Meningeal Artery Embolization Outcomes

What this Trial Is About

Researchers are collecting and analyzing data on patients with Acute Subdural Hematoma to better understand the effects of different surgical treatments on survival. This observational study focuses on standard surgical methods like burr hole trephination, craniotomy, decompressive craniectomy, and a newer technique called Middle Meningeal Artery embolization. The goal is to improve quality of care by examining outcomes related to these interventions. The study gathers detailed information retrospectively from the Methodist Dallas Medical Center Trauma Registry. This includes patient demographics, diagnosis details, injury characteristics, surgical procedures performed, complications, laboratory results, and outcomes such as discharge location and mortality. Data is collected through review of medical records and imaging reports within 72 hours of the traumatic event. Participants are trauma patients with Acute Subdural Hematoma who have been admitted to the trauma bay and recorded in the registry. Researchers will monitor survival and other inpatient outcomes based on the type of surgical intervention received. The study spans several years to collect enough cases to assess the impact of treatments. Participation involves no active intervention but data review from existing medical records.
