Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This observational study aims to calculate the prevalence of conditions or diseases requiring immediate medical attention in CTC scans with an indication of bleeding post trauma performed in the ED at Odense University Hospital. Secondary, we aim to evaluate the Scandinavian Neurotrauma Committee clinical guideline 2013 for minor head injury.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

In this retrospective study, our primary objectives are threefold: first, to calculate the prevalence of conditions or diseases requiring immediate medical attention and to subdivide them to explore potential correlations with biochemical, clinical, and patient baseline variables using multiple regression analysis. Secondly, we wanted to analyze our use of SNC CPG and evaluate if a more stringent application could reduce the potentially unnecessary overuse of CTC. Lastly, we aim to evaluate the 30-day mortality and readmission rates to a hospital following CTC performed in the ED.
