My thesis is based on a retrospective study on patients entering the Emergency Department with a diagnosis of mild traumatic head injury. The patients taken into account entered the ED with a diagnosis of mild traumatic head injury between September 2015 and April 2016. From this group of patients, we selected those with a clear diagnosis of intracranial hemorrhagic injury, highlighted by the first or the control CT; the patients variable take into account were: age, sex, therapy, INR, cause of trauma, outcome, risk factors, neurodeficits. The features of these patients have been compared to a homogeneous pool of control patients without intracranial lesions, with the aim to determine in which measure the risk factors can influence the outcome of the examined patients.
Il mio elaborato consiste in una ricerca retrospettiva di pazienti gestiti in Pronto Soccorso con diagnosi di Trauma Cranico minore. Sono stati presi in considerazione i pazienti registrati in PS con diagnosi di Trauma Cranico minore da Settembre 2015 ad Aprile 2016. Di questi pazienti, si sono analizzati quelli con diagnosi di lesione emorragiche cerebrale alla prima o alla seconda TC eseguita; di questi pazienti si sono prese in considerazione le seguenti variabili: età, sesso, terapia anticoagulante/antiaggregante, INR, esito, causa del trauma, neurodeficit e fattori di rischio. Le caratteristiche di questi pazienti e l'incidenza di lesioni emorragiche cerebrali sono poi state confrontate con un pool omogeneo di pazienti controllo senza lesioni intracraniche, con lo scopo di determinare in che misura i fattori di rischio incidono sull'outcome dei pazienti esaminati.

Abstract
My thesis is based on a retrospective study on patients entering the Emergency Department with a diagnosis of mild traumatic head injury. The patients taken into account entered the ED with a diagnosis of mild traumatic head injury between September 2015 and April 2016. From this group of patients, we selected those with a clear diagnosis of intracranial hemorrhagic injury, highlighted by the first or the control CT; the patients variable take into account were: age, sex, therapy, INR, cause of trauma, outcome, risk factors, neurodeficits. The features of these patients have been compared to a homogeneous pool of control patients without intracranial lesions, with the aim to determine in which measure the risk factors can influence the outcome of the examined patients.È consentito all'utente scaricare e condividere i documenti disponibili a testo pieno in UNITESI UNIPV nel rispetto della licenza Creative Commons del tipo CC BY NC ND.
