A member asked:

81 year old father fell & hit his head on concrete, 12 hours ago. his brain was bleeding. he's in icu. he can talk just fine. is he at risk of dying?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

It depends on the in: Being in ICU means they are monitoring him for any complication from hitting his head. he is at risk of bleeding in his brain. That can be a serious problem. But it can be checked easily with a CT scan of his brain. Ask his doctor about this and you will have your question answered in the process.
