چکیده انگلیسی
After including neurological deficit, our scoring system had a sensitivity of 97% (95% CI 88-99%) and specificity of 56% (95% CI 49-64%) for significant injury. We propose this is used to stratify the use of trauma radiographs, focused CT and WBCT for major trauma patients. Although not intended to replace clinical judgement, our scoring system adds an objective component to decision-making. We believe this will safely reduce the number of unnecessary CT scans performed on a relatively young cohort of patients.
