Implication

Retrospective analysis identifies clinical factors affecting 3-month outcomes in surgically treated patients, suggesting improved prognostic assessment.

Key Points

This study aims to identify predictors of early functional recovery three months after surgical treatment for acute extra-axial hematomas.
Retrospective analysis of 181 patients undergoing surgical treatment for acute extra-axial hematomas at two neurosurgical centers.
Assessment of demographic, physiological, laboratory, and radiological variables on admission.
Functional outcomes evaluated with the Glasgow Outcome Scale three months post-surgery.
Unfavorable outcome observed in 105 patients (58%).
Higher admission GCS score predicted favorable 3-month outcome (OR = 1.45, 95% CI: 1.27–1.65; p < 0.001).
Epidural hematoma presence correlated with favorable outcomes (OR = 5.77, 95% CI: 1.36–24.47; p = 0.018).
