Utilization of chest CT for injured patients during visits to U.S. Emergency Departments: 2012–2015

The American Journal of Emergency Medicine Aug 16, 2018

Yun BJ, et al. - In order to investigate national trends in the use of chest computed tomography (CT) during injury-related Emergency Department (ED) visits between 2012 and 2015, researchers analyzed injury-related ED visits from the 2012–2015 United States (U.S.) National Hospital Ambulatory Medical Care Survey (NHAMCS).

Findings revealed an overall increasing trend in chest CT utilization from 2012 to 2015, however, the results were not identified to be statistically significant.
