Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The classic feature of an epidural hematoma is a brief loss of consciousness after the injury, followed by a brief "lucid" moment, and then a momentary unconsciousness minutes after the injury. This is known as the "lucid interval" and is not typically seen in other types of skull hematomas. Unilateral hemiparesis, loss of speech, and temporary hearing loss may occur with any type of skull hematoma.
