What is the next step after subdural hematoma surgery?
Patient's Query
My father suffered right subdural hematoma, and underwent surgery on 11/12/24 but on the repeat scan of 16/12/24, there was still residual hematoma, so what should be the further management. His bp stays high, in the range of 170-180 systolic, but diastolic is in normal range. Now he has left sided loss of power but he can move all limbs, gcs is 15/15, no vomiting or headache.
Answered by Dr. Gurneet Sawhney
Nice to know that your father is fully awake and GCS is intact at 15. A remaining hematoma can sometimes need extra checkups. His high blood pressure is dangerous and the doctors should address it as it has an impact on the recovery. The weakness in the left side of the body is probably due to the intermitted functioning of the hematoma in the brain. You must get advice from his neurologist for personalized management, which will cover such measures as controlling blood pressure, monitoring his symptoms carefully, or seeking additional intervention for a hematoma.
