Backgrounds: Head injury is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in trauma cases and remains a major public health concern worldwide. In Indonesia, head injuries most commonly occur as a result of traffic accidents, particularly among productive age groups. Profiling head injury patients is essential for evaluating healthcare services, management strategies, and prevention programs. Methods: This descriptive study used a retrospective approach based on medical records of patients diagnosed with head injury (S09.0) from January 1 to December 31, 2024. A total of 60 patients met the inclusion criteria. The variables analyzed included age, sex, incident location, cause of injury, associated trauma, intracranial hemorrhage types, severity based on Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS), treatment status, and clinical outcomes. Results: Most patients were younger than 18 years (43.3%) and male (70%). Head injuries occurred mostly in public areas (73.3%) and were primarily caused by two-wheeled motor vehicle accidents (61.7%). The majority of patients had no associated trauma (58.3%) and no intracranial hemorrhage was identified (71.7%). The most common severity level was mild head injury (75%). Most patients required hospitalization (81.7%). The majority of patients showed improvement at discharge (98.3%). Conclusion: Head injuries in this study occurred predominantly in patients younger than 18 years and male, with most incidents taking place in public areas and largely caused by two-wheeled motor vehicle accidents. The majority of patients had no associated trauma and no intracranial hemorrhage, and most cases were classified as mild head injury. Most patients required hospitalization and showed improved clinical condition at discharge. Keywords: Head injury, patient characteristics, Glasgow Coma Scale, intracranial hemorrhage, clinical outcome.
