Pemeriksaan Computed Tomography Scan (CT-Scan) dapat mengevaluasi tingkat keparahan cedera kepala sehingga mampu menilai dengan cepat dan tepat kelainan yang terjadi di otak dan tengkorak. Kelainan yang dinilai seperti gambaran fraktur, perdarahan, epidural hematoma (EDH), subdural hematoma (SDH), intrakranial hematoma (ICH), intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH), dan subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengidentifikasi karakteristik hasil CT-Scan kepala pada pasien cedera kepala di RSUD dr. Zainoel Abidin Banda Aceh. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian deskriptif dengan desain retrospective study. Sampel pada penelitian ini adalah catatan rekam medis pasien cedera kepala di RSUD dr. Zainoel Abidin periode Januari - Oktober 2023. Teknik pengambilan sampel menggunakan purposive sampling dengan jumlah sampel sebanyak 193 responden. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan tingkat keparahan pasien cedera kepala di RSUD dr. Zainoel Abidin Banda Aceh berdasarkan nilai GCS adalah 143 (74,1%) cedera kepala ringan, 39 (20,2%) cedera kepala sedang dan 11 (5,7%) cedera kepala berat. Hasil gambaran CT-Scan pasien cedera kepala di RSUD dr.Zainoel Abidin Banda Aceh adalah tidak tampak kelainan yaitu 91 (47,2%) responden dan berdasarkan lesi intrakranial paling banyak adalah lesi multipel yaitu 33 (17,1%) responden. Disarankan kepada pihak RSUD dr.Zainoel Abidin untuk lebih memperhatikan dalam melakukan skrining pasien cedera kepala yang memerlukan pemeriksaan CT-Scan sesuai dengan kriteria indikasi, sehingga mengurangi pemeriksaan CT-Scan yang tidak diperlukan.

A Computed Tomography Scan (CT-Scan) examination can evaluate the severity of a head injury to quickly and precisely assess abnormalities that occur in the brain and skull. Abnormalities assessed include fracture features, bleeding, epidural hematoma (EDH), subdural hematoma (SDH), intracranial hematoma (ICH), intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH), and subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). The aim of this study was to identify the characteristics of head CT-Scan results in head injury patients at dr. Zainoel Abidin Regional General Hospital, Banda Aceh. This descriptive study was conducted by means of a retrospective study design. The sample in this study was the medical records of head injury patients at the hospital for the period of January – October 2023. The sampling technique used was a purposive sampling technique with a total sample of 193 respondents. The results of the study showed that the severity of head injury patients at dr. Zainoel Abidin Regional General Hospital, based on the GCS, consisted of mild head injuries (143 respondents; 74.1%), moderate head injuries (39 respondents; 20.2%), and severe head injuries (11 respondents; 5.7%). Additionally, the results of the CT-Scan images of head injury patients at the hospital showed that there were no visible abnormalities found in 91 (47.2%) respondents, and based on intracranial lesions, the most common were multiple lesions, which were found in 33 (17.1%) respondents. Recommendation for dr. Zainoel Abidin Regional General Hospital of Banda Aceh to enhances its focus on screening head injury patients who meet the criteria for a CT-Scan examination. This approach will effectively decrease the incidence of unnecessary CT-Scan procedures.
