Prior indirect evidence reported higher recurrence with passive drainage than active subperiosteal drainage. The control intervention places a soft silicone Spiral Drain through the burr hole into the subdural cavity. The passive subdural drain is connected to a soft collection bag fixed above the collar bone.
