Instruction: Read and understand carefully the case scenario and answer briefly the following questions. (10 marks) CASE SCENARIO: K.B. is a 21-year-old man with a past medical history of seizure disorder controlled with carbamazepine (Tegretol). He was accidentally struck in the head by a pitched baseball while batting in a baseball game. He was unconscious momentarily, for about 5 seconds, then awakened and was alert and responsive. After a few hours, K.B. returned home with complaints of a “splitting” headache, drowsiness, slight confusion, and some nausea. K.B. was taken to the local hospital emergency department (ED), where a CT scan revealed a left subdural hematoma. He has been transferred to your medical center, which has a neurosurgeon on call. 1. Because you have not taken care of a patient with a head injury recently, you reviewed subdural hematoma before K.B. arrives. How would you describe subdural hematoma? (2 marks) ILO # 3.2 2. Where exactly does subdural hematoma occur? Draw a picture (1 mark) ILO # 3.2 3. What are the common signs and symptoms (S/S) of an acute subdural hematoma? List 3 (3 marks) ILO # 3.2 1. 2. 3. 4. What signs for increased Intracranial Pressure (ICP) will you monitor from K.B.? List (2 marks) ILO # 3.2 1. 2. 5. Why is it important to make sure K.B. is taking his carbamazepine (Tegretol) List 2.
