Whole-Body CT in Haemodynamically Unstable Severely Injured Patients – A Retrospective, Multicentre Study

Abstract

WBCT during trauma resuscitation significantly increased the survival in haemodynamically stable as well as in haemodynamically unstable major trauma patients. Thus, the application of WBCT in haemodynamically unstable severely injured patients seems to be safe, feasible and justified if performed quickly within a well-structured environment and by a well-organized trauma team.
