What this trial studies

This observational study collects retrospective data on adults who have experienced cervical and/or skull base fractures or subdural hematomas at Methodist Dallas Medical Center since January 2016. The registry aims to gather a statistically significant number of cases to analyze outcomes and treatment patterns. Data will be sourced from electronic health records without any additional tests or procedures for participants. The study does not involve direct patient contact, ensuring that treatment decisions remain unaffected.

Good fit: Ideal candidates are adults aged 18 and older who have presented with cervical and/or skull base fractures or subdural hematomas at the medical center.

Not a fit: Patients who do not meet the inclusion criteria or belong to vulnerable populations may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this registry could enhance understanding of head and neck trauma outcomes, potentially leading to improved treatment protocols.

How similar studies have performed: While this approach is observational and retrospective, similar registries have successfully contributed to understanding trauma outcomes in other settings.
