Abstract

This paper describes an alternative approach to emergency burr hole evacuation of epidural hematoma using the intraosseous (IO) vascular access system. The IO vascular access system is commonly available in the Emergency Department. We demonstrate that it can be used in rare situations where immediate neurosurgical intervention and the standard cranial drill and brace are not available for burr hole craniostomy.
