EMERGENCY

A sudden onset of neurological incidence might indicate a neurological emergency. Therefore we strongly recommend visiting the emergency room of the nearest hospital.

Phone number: 144

Only in a hospital the neccessary diagnostics – especially concerning imaging – are available.

Do not lose time, because: „Time is brain!“

Another recommendation: Always take a list with yourself with essential medical information:
–  Previous diseases
–  Medication
–  Allergies

It helps saving time!

Epidural hematoma

An epidural hematoma is a hemorrhage between the two dural blades and typically presents as smooth-bordered and biconvex on head imaging. It is usually caused by violence and bursting of the A. meningea media (= “middle meningeal artery”), which runs inside the two dura leaves. Whether surgical relief is beneficial or necessary depends on clinical symptoms and the extent of bleeding on imaging.
