Daily Question
|
Relative to the general population, what is the incidence of epidural hematomas in the elderly truama patient?
|
|
Answer
|
|
Elderly persons suffer a much lower incidence of epidural hematomas because of the relatively more dense fibrous bond between the dura mater and the inner table of the skull.
