The aim of this prospective clinical study was to evaluate the potential of bedside transcranial color-coded duplex sonography (TDS) in the assessment of patients with acute intracranial hemorrhage and respective complications. 74 patients (35 with spontaneous and 27 with traumatic hemorrhage, 12 excluded due to insufficient insonability) underwent 152 TDS examinations. The results were compared to computer-tomography (CT) as well as conventional transcranial Doppler sonography (TcD). The size and localisation of intracerebral hemorrhages as detected in TDS coincided in 39/42 examinations with CT findings; in cases of traumatic intracranial extracerebral hematoma TDS correlated in all but one case (18/19). The TDS findings for the diameter of third and lateral ventricles (n = 126) as for midline-shift (n = 26) showed a good correlation (p < 0.0005) to CT-measurements. TDS appears to be a useful bedside, non-invasive tool in order to detect and exclude intracranial complications in patients with intracranial hemorrhages.

D006407 Hematoma, Epidural, Cranial Accumulation of blood in the EPIDURAL SPACE between the SKULL and the DURA MATER, often as a result of bleeding from the MENINGEAL ARTERIES associated with a temporal or parietal bone fracture. Epidural hematoma tends to expand rapidly, compressing the dura and underlying brain. Clinical features may include HEADACHE; VOMITING; HEMIPARESIS; and impaired mental function.

D006408 Hematoma, Subdural Accumulation of blood in the SUBDURAL SPACE between the DURA MATER and the arachnoidal layer of the MENINGES. This condition primarily occurs over the surface of a CEREBRAL HEMISPHERE, but may develop in the spinal canal (HEMATOMA, SUBDURAL, SPINAL). Subdural hematoma can be classified as the acute or the chronic form, with immediate or delayed symptom onset, respectively. Symptoms may include loss of consciousness, severe HEADACHE, and deteriorating mental status.

D012680 Sensitivity and Specificity Binary classification measures to assess test results. Sensitivity or recall rate is the proportion of true positives. Specificity is the probability of correctly determining the absence of a condition. (From Last, Dictionary of Epidemiology, 2d ed) Specificity,Sensitivity,Specificity and Sensitivity
