Abstract

Although uncommon in the infant population, epidural hematoma is a life-threatening condition that can be treated with timely intervention. The advent of CT scanning has significantly improved outcomes. The Pediatric Emergency Care Applied Research Network guidelines should be used to guide the need for imaging in the setting of pediatric head trauma. If the clinical guidelines are met, a non-contrast head CT should be performed.
