Hello,
Head injury with clot at the brain stem is not a normal issue, we need to continuously monitor the vitals. If such a patient comes to me, I suggest her to get admitted under intensive care unit (ICU) because one need to be closely monitors the vitals.
We need to repeat the scan after 24 to 48 hours to see for the clot condition whether it is progressing or it is being the same, or getting dissolved.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Mohammed Abdullah
