Abstract
► We tested erythropoietin (EPO) neuroprotection after acute subdural hematoma in rats. ► We compared intravenous (i.v.) and direct cortical application after removal of subdural blood. ► 200 and 2000 IU (i.v.) and 0.02 IU (direct cortical) EPO/rat were neuroprotective. ► 20.000 (i.v.) and 2 IU (direct cortical) EPO/rat induced adverse effects on injury. ► Enhanced neuroprotection by blood evacuation and cortical EPO application.
