چکیده انگلیسی
The objective of the current study was to evaluate the accuracy of the clinical examination of the spine following blunt trauma in intoxicated patients. Methods included a retrospective review of all cases of blunt trauma presenting to an urban level I trauma centre over 1 year. Data was analysed separately for the clinical examination of the cervical spine (CS) and for the thoracic and lumbar spine (T + LS). Two hundred and sixteen cases of blunt trauma secondary to MVC (n = 143) or falls (n = 73) were retained for analysis. In intoxicated patients, sensitivities and specificities for CS tenderness were 60.0 and 64.3% (radiological abnormality) and 100 and 68.6% (operative stabilization), respectively. With respect to the T + LS in intoxicated patients; sensitivities and specificities for T + LS tenderness and radiological abnormality were 80.0 and 71.4% and for the ability of the clinical examination to pick up unstable T + LS fractures requiring operative stabilization 100 and 72.0%, respectively. Intoxicated blunt trauma patients may be able to have spine fractures requiring operative stabilization excluded using physical examination of the spine at presentation to the trauma center.
