Implication

Retrospective cohort study evaluates CT markers predicting discharge functional status after CSDH drainage, suggesting implications for risk stratification.

Key Points

Evaluate the association of preoperative CT markers with poor functional status after burr-hole drainage for chronic subdural hematoma.
Retrospective analysis of 260 patients undergoing burr-hole drainage for CSDH
Assessment of midline shift and hematoma thickness using CT
Multivariable logistic regression to identify independent predictors of discharge functional status.
25.4% of patients had poor discharge functional status
Midline shift (aOR 1.11, 95% CI 1.01–1.22, p=0.036) and pre-hospital mRS (aOR 1.39, 95% CI 1.05–1.85, p=0.022) were independent predictors
Age was also a significant factor (aOR 1.08, 95% CI 1.04–1.12, p<0.001).
