OBJECTIVE: To examine the occurrence of traumatic intracranial hemorrhage (tICH) and outcome in patients with minor head injury and assess the probable risk factors. METHODS: Patients with minor head injury who visited our hospital from January 2015 to July 2017 were registered consecutively, and enrolled patients were aged ≥18 years, visited within 24 hours of the injury, and had a Glasgow Coma Scale score of 15 at outpatient clinic or before the injury. RESULTS: Of the 1122 enrolled patients, 55 (4.9%) had tICH. An antiplatelet agent was administered in 114 patients, an anticoagulant agent was administered in 49 patients, and none of them were administered in 948 patients. A multivariate analysis of tICH identified it as a risk factor, showing significant difference between antiplatelet medication (P = 0.0312), fall from stairs (P = 0.0057), traffic accident (P = 0.0117), neurologic symptoms (P = 0.0091), and modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score before trauma (P < 0.0001). We also analyzed association of enlargement of tICH with different parameters and only anticoagulant medication indicated an increased risk (P = 0.0005). Thirty patients (2.6%) were dependent or died at discharge (mRS 3-6). The mRS score before trauma (P < 0.0001), tICH (P < 0.0001), spinal injury (P < 0.0001), and enlargement of intracranial hemorrhage (P = 0.0008) indicated an increased probability of morbidity (mRS 3-6) in multivariate analysis. CONCLUSIONS: Antiplatelet and anticoagulant medications were risk factor for tICH and enlargement of tICH in patients with minor head injury, respectively. A pretrauma condition of disability/dependence is an important risk factor for tICH and outcome.
