Subdural hematoma

Today’s (QUICK) lesson, we cover subdural hematoma! So basically, its a collection of blood on top of the brain. As for the nice little GIF above, that entire jello-like goo is one huge blood clot! Which interestingly enough was caused by a needle sized leak. Generally a patient will show Cushing Reflex who is in the deep terminal stage of trauma. Generally it will show as a huge number in your BP, a reduction of the heart rate, and irregular respirations.
