Abstract

This critique evaluates the systematic review and meta-analysis titled “Local anesthesia with sedation and general anesthesia for the treatment of chronic subdural hematoma.” The study provides valuable insights into anesthesia techniques’ effectiveness in managing this condition but has limitations, including selection bias, heterogeneity among cases, lack of standardized protocols, and retrospective design. Despite these limitations, the review contributes to understanding chronic subdural hematoma management but underscores the need for future research to address these shortcomings.
