Study examines surgery on elderly patients with brain injuries

On behalf of Purvis Gray Thomson, LLP posted in Brain Injury on Wednesday, December 2, 2015.

As Colorado citizens grow older, the increased risk of falls brings with it an increased risk of brain injury. Brain injury is often treated with surgery, but this is generally not recommended for elderly patients due to a low chance of survival. A 2015 study, however, indicates that the success of surgical treatment for subdural hematoma on patients over the age of 75 depends largely on the condition of the patient prior to the injury.
