What is The Use of Whole-Body Trauma CT Should Be Based On Mechanism of Injury - A Risk Analysis of 3920 Patients at A Tertiary Trauma Centre 2023 about?

This study analyzed 3920 trauma patients who received whole-body CT scans to determine which mechanisms of injury and clinical factors were associated with internal injuries being detected on CT. It found that higher energy mechanisms like motor vehicle accidents over 60 km/h and falls from heights were associated with positive CT scans, while lower energy mechanisms like falls from standing were less likely to yield positive results, especially in patients under 65 years old.
