Abstract
- Background: Head trauma are a widespread problem. The concept of a head injury includes fracture of the cranial and facial bones, and injury to specific sensory and brain regions. The outcome in terms of surviving in such traumatic brain injury circumstances depends on the kind of weapons utilized, the kind and position of the skull fracture, and cerebral haemorrhage. Material and Methods: 176 head injuries were studied prospectively. The investigation was conducted at Department of Forensic Medicine and Toxicology, Kakatiya Medical College, Warangal, Telangana, India where 13 to 75-year-olds were affected. The study beginning with June 2021 to May 2022. Cases divided into non-fatal head injuries (Group A) and Fatal head injuries (Group B). Every case was assessed for age, sex, residency, trauma, effect, treatment, fate, and complications. The Chi Square test was used to compare categorical variables, while the ANOVA test was used to examine the age variable across the two research groups. Both tests required a P value of 0.05 or less. SPSS Software version 16 was used. Results: Group A had 44.4% men, Group B 55.6% and 56.3% women in Group A and B with 43.7%. Group A blunt trauma was 65.8% while group B was 34.2%. Rural areas have more blunt trauma cases. 80 blunt trauma patients in Group A and 91 cases in Group B had lacerated wounds. Temporal bone fractures occurred in 42 non-fatal Group A and 10 fatal group B patients. Group A had 43 depressed fractures (95.6%), while group B had 2 (4.4%). 39 group A (62.9%) and 23 group B (37.1%) instances have subdural haemorrhage. Complications is seen in 17 cases after conservative treatment and 27 cases after trephine. Conclusion: Light weapons are insufficient to cause fatal head injuries, there is a significant difference between the sexes in head injury fatality and outcome, getting older is linked to a poor outcome. Head injuries are more common in rural areas than in urban areas, and there is a very high mortality rate in rural areas due to a lack of facilities. The new investigation supports these and other conclusions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
