Prospective case series of patients testing an ED OU protocol including a repeat CT at 24h if initial head CT normal in patients on warfarin with minor head injury (N=97)
%ofpatientsw/ intracranial lesions after 24h of observation following normal CT (N=87) was 6% (N=5), with an additional 2 patients who had normal 2nd CT developed bleed (both had INR >3)

Case series of patients with minor head injury and variable access to an OU, depending on the day of the week (N=405)
23.5% of patients who met high-risk criteria for further observation were sent home when the unit was unavailable compared with only
9.9% when it was an option
Study antedates the most widely used current decision rules for minor head trauma (e.g., Canadian, New Orleans criteria)
