We examined diagnostic procedures in mild traumatic brain injury by a systematic literature search. After screening 38,806 abstracts, we critically reviewed 228 diagnostic studies and accepted 73 (32%). The estimated prevalence of intracranial CT scan abnormalities is 5 % in patients presenting to hospital with a Glasgow Coma Scale score of 15 and 30 % or higher in patients presenting with a score of 13. About 1 % of all treated patients with mild traumatic brain injury require neurosurgical intervention. There is strong evidence that clinical factors can predict computerized tomography scan abnormalities and the need for interven-tion in adults, but no such evidence for mild traumatic brain injury in children. We found evidence that skull ...
