External validation of the Haemorrhage Estimate Risk in Oral anticoagulation for Mild head trauma nomogram in Hong Kong

Hong Kong Journal of Emergency Medicine, Volume 32, Issue 2, April 2025.
Abstract Objective Currently, there is no consensus among international guidelines on the management of patients with mild traumatic brain injuries (MTBIs) who are on direct oral anti‐coagulants (DOACs). Overuse of computed tomography (CT) scan of the brain results in unnecessary radiation exposure, longer waits and higher costs.
