  • Every 90 seconds someone in the UK is admitted to hospital with a head injury.
  • In the last year 20882 people in Scotland were admitted to hospital with a head injury. (includes all causes e.g. head injuries, strokes, tumors, menengitis etc...)
  • Men are 1.5x more likely than females to be admitted for a head injury.
  • The number of women admitted to hospital with a head injury has increased by circa 14.1% (in 2023/24), although this fluctuates both up and down somewhat and currently represents a fall from the  peak rise of  21.2% (as observed in 2018/19), noting that both percentages stated above are compared to a base year record made in 2005/06.
