head injury and novel anticoagulants
The NICE guideline writing committee on head injury have repsonded to a recent letter in the BMJ regarding whether to recommend head CT following a head injury in patient's who are taking a novel oral anticoagulant. The comment is that there is not enough data as it is too soon in the lifetime of these drugs. Has anyone seen a head injury in a patient taking one of the newer drugs?
