The application development of bedside ultrasound in trauma patients / 中国小儿急救医学

ABSTRACT

The patients with trauma have a high mortality and disability rate, and the incidence of trauma is increasing year by year.Rapid and accurate diagnosis is the key to improve the prognosis of patients with trauma.The traditional diagnostic imaging techniques are X-ray and CT examination.Although X-ray examination can be completed at the bedside, its sensitivity is not high.The diagnostic sensitivity of CT examination is high, but it can not be completed by bedside.Moreover, the process of repeated transportation of patients will delay the best treatment time, even cause secondary injury.Bedside ultrasound has the advantages of fast, real-time, noninvasive and repeatable operation.With the continuous development of bedside ultrasound technology, it has been widely used in the diagnosis of trauma.This review summarized the clinical applications of bedside ultrasound in trauma patients.
