Focalsymptoms may exist from pressure by bone or blood-clot, apartfrom loss of consciousness. Extradural Hemorrhage (see Figs. 1,2).—The most impor-tant symptom of intracranial hemorrhage is the interval of con-sciousness that exists from the time of the injury to the onset ofunconsciousness. Unconsciousness incases of intracranial hem-orrhage is clue to an increase of the intracranial pressure causedby the presence of free blood. An interval of consciousness.
