Abstract

Acute subdural hematoma (ASDH) is a common form of severe head injury and is characterized by a high mortality rate. Studies in a laboratory have shown that ASDH can be produced in the primate by subjecting the head to short duration, sagittal plane loading. The objective of this study was to measure the response of an inanimate model of the head subjected to a range of short duration, sagittal plane loading conditions.
