Overview
Epidemiology and Demographics
Incidence
- Epidural hematoma occurs in approximately 2000 per 100,000 of patients with head injury.[1]
- Epidural hematoma is the cause of 5% to 15% of fatal head injuries.[1]
- Approximately 85% to 95% of epidural hematoma have an overlying skull fracture.[1]
Case-fatality rate/Mortality rate
- The in-hospital mortality rate of epidural hematoma in young patients with epidural hematoma is approximately 4800 per 100,000 individuals with a case-mortality rate of 4.8%.[2]
Age
- Patients of all age groups may develop [disease name].
- The incidence of [disease name] increases with age; the median age at diagnosis is [#] years.
- [Disease name] commonly affects individuals younger than/older than [number of years] years of age.
- [Chronic disease name] is usually first diagnosed among [age group].
- [Acute disease name] commonly affects [age group].
Race
- There is no racial predilection to [disease name].
- [Disease name] usually affects individuals of the [race 1] race. [Race 2] individuals are less likely to develop [disease name].
Gender
- [Disease name] affects men and women equally.
- [Gender 1] are more commonly affected by [disease name] than [gender 2]. The [gender 1] to [gender 2] ratio is approximately [number > 1] to 1.
Region
- The majority of [disease name] cases are reported in [geographical region].
- [Disease name] is a common/rare disease that tends to affect [patient population 1] and [patient population 2].
