Description:

The headInjury data frame has 3121 rows and 11 columns. The data were simulated according to a simple logistic regression model to match roughly the clinical characteristics of a sample of individuals who suffered minor head injuries.

Variables:

This data frame contains the following columns:

age.65

age factor (0 = under 65, 1 = over 65).

amnesia.before

amnesia before impact (less than 30 minutes = 0, more than 30 minutes =1).

basal.skull.fracture

(0 = no fracture, 1 = fracture).

GCS.decrease

Glasgow Coma Scale decrease (0 = no deterioration, 1 = deterioration).

GCS.13

initial Glasgow Coma Scale (0 = not ‘13’, 1 = ‘13’).

GCS.15.2hours

Glasgow Coma Scale after 2 hours (0 = not ‘15’, 1 = '15').

high.risk

assessed by clinician as high risk for neurological intervention (0 = not high risk, 1 = high risk).

loss.of.consciousness

(0 = conscious, 1 = loss of consciousness).

open.skull.fracture

(0 = no fracture, 1 = fracture)

vomiting

(0 = no vomiting, 1 = vomiting)

clinically.important.brain.injury
