Summary

Abstract Purpose Patients with anticoagulation therapy has a higher risk of developing traumatic Intracranial Hemorrhage (tICH). Delayed Intracranial Hemorrhage (d-ICH) is a rarer clinical manifestation; however, the incidence varies from 0-9,6 % in other studies. Some studies have also questioned the clinical relevance of d-ICH, since the mortality and the need of neurosurgical intervention is reported to be very low. The aim of this study is to determine the incidence of d-ICH at Sundsvall Regional Hospital.

Methods A retrospective observational study of patients with mTBI and oral anticoagulation therapy. Data from medical records and radiology registry in Sundsvall hospital for 29 months during 2018-2020 in Sundsvall identified 249 patients with an initial negative CT scan who performed a follow-up CT scan. Outcome measure was incidence of d-ICH.
