Summary

The New Orleans Criteria (NOC) and the Canadian CT Head Rules (CCHR) have been developed to decrease the number of normal computed tomography (CT) in mild head injury (MHI). The aim is to compare the clinical performance of these 2 decision rules for indentifying patients with intracranial traumatic lesions and those who required an emergent neurosurgical intervention following MHI.
