"Anterior convergent" chest probing in rapid ultrasound transducer positioning versus formal chest ultrasonography to detect pneumothorax during the primary survey of hospital trauma patients: a diagnostic accuracy study.

Journal of trauma management & outcomes

Ziapour B, Haji HS.
PMID: 26697105
J Trauma Manag Outcomes. 2015 Dec 21;9:9. doi: 10.1186/s13032-015-0030-5. eCollection 2015.

BACKGROUND: Occult pneumothorax represents a diagnostic pitfall during the primary survey of trauma patients, particularly if these patients require early positive pressure ventilation. This study investigated the accuracy of our proposed rapid model of ultrasound transducer positioning during the...
