Overview
Laboratory Findings
- Laboratory studies should also be considered in all patients with epidural hematoma, including:
- A complete blood count to check for thrombocytopenia[1]
- Coagulation studies (PTT, PT/INR) to check for coagulopathy[2][3]
- Basic metabolic panel to check for electrolyte abnormalities[4]
