 I wouldn't tell her until she is back. If you tell her now, she will be upset and want to come home to you.
But it depends how you feel - I am giving you this advice, but if it was me in your situation, I would tell my husband straight away what had happened, and want him to come home and look after me ; )

my husband drove 600 miles away to visit his family and while he was gone i fainted and hit the top of my head on a sharp rock. i know this is not the same thing that happened to you but i didnt tell my husband right away. when he got home i told him and he got upset that i didnt tell him sooner. he said he doesnt care how trivial it was he had a right to know if the person he loves is hurt in anyway. go with ur gut but either way you r risking a big reaction.

 i think you should tell her, what if someone tell her before you do, i think she will feel to bad. I do believe that she will still concentrate. You know it is not nice to keep such as secrete even she is far.

Yes, tell her. A girl wants to be the first to know if anything happens to her partner. She'll probably worry/be upset, but just reassure her that you're okay.

 Yes, it will upset her, but I think you should tell her. It is better she knows and can deal with this her way, than you "protecting her" from it. She's a big girl, she should be able to handle it. If you don't tell her you will be giving off a singal that she's not important enough to get to know.

 Yes, she should be told, and yes, she will be concerned, but imagine her feelings if you dont tell her and she finds out from somebody else ...

 Aw poor love!
I think you should tell her what happened and reassure her that you are ok.
Keeping important things like this from your other half isn't very honest, although I know you are just trying to protect her.
If I was her I would want to know, and If I knew that you were OK Im pretty sure I woulden't let it effect my work!
