Author: Don Stader, M.D.

Educational Pearls

  • Types of traumatic bleeds include subdural, epidural, and subarachnoid.
  • Treatment for a traumatic bleed includes maintenance of systolic BP above 120 and seizure prophylaxis with phenytoin.
  • In atraumatic bleeds, treatment should focus on lowering blood pressure to reduce bleeding.
