METHODS: EDs throughout Scotland were asked to supply a copy of their head injury advice pamphlet for analysis. Each pamphlet was assessed against a template and an Excel spreadsheet was created. RESULTS: All 30 (100%) Scottish EDs responded. The frequency with which specific features appeared varied widely, with most pamphlets concentrating on emergency features, with less emphasis on postconcussion symptoms. CONCLUSIONS: Head injury discharge advice should be standardised throughout EDs, with more emphasis given to postconcussion features.},
