Drainage Volume, Drainage Time, and Irrigation Volume in Chronic Subdural Hematoma
Based on our findings, patients with larger drainage volume and shorter drainage time were associated with an increased risk for hematoma recurrence. Optimal drainage after chronic subdural hematoma surgery might be more complex than just defining a standard drain time for all patients, and factors such as drainage volume might need to be considered.
