Extradural Hemorrhage Prevention
Epidural hemorrhage may not be preventable once a head injury has occurred.
Minimize the risk of head injury:
- Use appropriate safety equipment (such as hard hats, bicycle or motorcycle helmets, and seat belts) when involved in activities that carry a significant risk of brain injury.
- Use appropriate safety behaviors. For example, do not dive into water if the water depth is unknown or if rocks may be present. Use appropriate safety precautions in sports, recreation, and work. Drive safely.
