Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Brain hemorrhage volume. Timepoint: diameter and volume of traumatic intracerebral hemorrhage before intervention and 6, 24 , 48 hours after intervention. Method of measurement: Volume in ml of blood in the brain CT scan on the hospital's network. It calculate by multiplying the maximum length in maximum width in number of cuts of hemorrhage in centimeter divided by the 2,and registering on designed form.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Level of consciousness. Timepoint: upon admission and discharge. Method of measurement: Glasgow coma scale.;Midline shift. Timepoint: before intervention and 6, 24 , 48 hours after intervention. Method of measurement: spiral brain CT scan.
