Potential Injury by Anatomic Region: (Most commonly injured organs in red) Intrathoracic Abdomen Diaphragm, liver, spleen, stomach. Cannot be palpated as it lies behind the ribs. Pelvic Abdomen: Urinary bladder, urethra, rectum, small intestine, Ovaries, fallopian tubes, and uterus in women Consider extra-peritoneal injuries in this region. Retroperitoneal abdomen Contains the kidneys, ureters, pancreas, aorta, and vena cava Usually require advanced imaging to identify and diagnose these injuries. Abdomen (proper) Contains the small and large intestines, gravid uterus, and the distended urinary bladder. Physical exam, x-rays and DPL are useful and reliable in this area.

Slide 7-

Diagnostic Evaluation of Penetrating Trauma: Stab Wounds Unstable patients or those with peritonitis should be considered emergently for laparotomy. Stable patients can undergo local wound exploration. If no peritoneal violation is detected, serial examinations are performed. Ghana Emergency Medicine Collaborative Advanced Emergency Trauma Course
Slide 8-

Stab Wound Diagnosis Diagnostic Peritoneal Lavage (DPL) or Focused Abdominal Sonography for Trauma (FAST) FAST scan is preferred due to higher positive predictive value, but both are acceptable. Further discussion of DPL and FAST follows Perform AP/Lateral Chest x-ray for diaphragmatic, mediastinal or lung injury. CT scan can be considered, but is not always mandatory in anterior abdominal stab wounds Ghana Emergency Medicine Collaborative Advanced Emergency Trauma Course Ghana Emergency Medicine Collaborative Advanced Emergency Trauma Course

Unstable patients suffering projectile wounds to the abdomen should proceed emergently to the operating theater. The specific location of projectile fragments can be investigated after stabilization is achieved. Stable patients suffering projectile wounds to the abdomen should undergo CT scanning and serial examinations.

Physical examination: Pelvis Compress the Anterior Superior Iliac Crests to assess for pain or movement on PA compression. Compress the Anterior Superior Iliac Crests laterally for pain or movement. Palpate at the pubic symphisis for tenderness, step-off or crepitance. Pelvic fracture are painful and usually demonstrate tenderness. Ghana Emergency Medicine Collaborative Advanced Emergency Trauma Course

Diagnostic Procedures Diagnostic peritoneal lavage Bedside test for expeditious discovery of free peritoneal blood. Used in multiply injured, altered mentation or to more closely investigate those whose exam is confounded by pelvic or thoracic injuries. Semi-open technique is preferable to percutaneous technique Performed at infraumbilical site unless the patient is pregnant or a large pelvic hematoma is suspected. Ghana Emergency Medicine Collaborative Advanced Emergency Trauma Course
Slide 33-

Diagnostic Peritoneal Lavage DPL must not delay transport to the operating theater when emergent laparotomy is needed regardless of DPL findings. Complications of DPL include: Bleeding, Infection Intra-abdominal injuries False-positive leading to unnecessary exploratory laparotomy. Ghana Emergency Medicine Collaborative Advanced Emergency Trauma Course
Slide 34-

DPL: Findings Mandating Surgery Greater than 10mL gross blood on catheter insertion, or greater than 15-20mL on aspiration Following peritoneal lavage with one liter (1L) crystalloid: Greater than 100,000 RBC/mm3, or Greater than 500 WBC/mm3, or Bile, food matter, high amylase, bacteria Ghana Emergency Medicine Collaborative Advanced Emergency Trauma Course
Slide 35-

Pelvic Fractures Can be stable or unstable. If unstable, they must be repaired by orthopedics. May have significant bleeding from vessels on pelvic floor. Pelvic fractures should be stabilized with a sheet wrapped tightly around the pelvis. Ghana Emergency Medicine Collaborative Advanced Emergency Trauma Course

Management Algorithm ABC, IV , O2, monitor Primary and secondary survey while 2L of crystalloid infuses If remains unstable after bolus, transfuse blood Start with 2 Units of packed red blood cells FAST Scan for intraperitoneal, pericardiac hemorrhage If FAST is negative and patient is unstable consider DPL If FAST is negative and patient is stable, consider serial exams and/or CT scan If FAST is positive and patient is unstable, proceed to emergent exploratory laparotomy If FAST is positive and patient is stable, perform CT scan If CT scan is negative and patient is hypotensive, consider arteriography or laparotomy Ghana Emergency Medicine Collaborative Advanced Emergency Trauma Course
Slide 41-

When to Consult Surgery Following Abdominal Trauma Clinically unstable Abnormal vital signs or poor general appearance without external hemorrhage to account for instability Peritoneal findings on exam Severe tenderness, rebound or guarding High risk of associated signs and injuries Pelvic fractures, lumbar spine fractures, lower rib fractures, “Grey-Turner” or “Cullen” Sign, Seat-Belt Sign Patient cannot be adequately evaluated: Altered mental status, language barrier, age (young or advanced), significant head or neck injury. Positive DPL, FAST scan or free-air on plain radiographs Ghana Emergency Medicine Collaborative Advanced Emergency Trauma Course
Slide 42-

Penetrating Abdominal Trauma Miscellaneous Points Evisceration Proceed to the operating theater or reduce the omentum with emergent surgical consultation. Penetrating objects should not be removed except in proximity to definitive care. Pre-maturely removing the object may lead to exsanguination if it is tamponading a potential vascular disaster.

Genitourinary Trauma General Anatomy Review Upper GU: kidneys, pelvocaliceal system, and ureters Lower GU: bladder, urethra, external genitalia Pathophysiology of Traumatic Injury Blunt Traumatic Injury Rapid Deceleration Consideration Pediatric Considerations Penetrating Injury Ghana Emergency Medicine Collaborative Advanced Emergency Trauma Course
Slide 44-

GU Trauma Physical Examination Examine for blood at the urethral meatus. Blood present should raise concern for pelvic fracture. Foley should not be placed until a retrograde urethrogram has been performed. A retrograde urethrogram or cystogram in a stable patient who has blood at the urethral meatus or evidence of urethral or bladder injury from penetration. Ghana Emergency Medicine Collaborative Advanced Emergency Trauma Course
Slide 45-

Evaluation for Traumatic GU Injury Physical exam for GU injuries is of limited value in obtaining detailed or operative-planning information Urine dip and microscopy Rectal Exam for bony protrusion, tenderness, high-riding prostate, boggy prostate Examine for blood at the urethral meatus, scrotal hematoma and perineal ecchymosis Indications for imaging Gross hematuria Microscopic hematuria with hemodynamic instability Persistent microscopic hematuria (serial urine analysis) Hemodynamic instability with history of significant deceleration mechanism However, microscopic hematuria in a clinically stable patient is rarely associated with findings on imaging. Ghana Emergency Medicine Collaborative Advanced Emergency Trauma Course
Slide 46-

CT Scanning in GU Trauma CT scan of the abdomen and pelvis with IV contrast CT scan is preferred over intravenous pyelogram (IVP) in renal injuries Imaging is more detailed, sensitive and may detect other intraabdominal injuries or urine collections In the presence of penetrating flank trauma IV/PO/PR, “triple contrast” CT scan is the preferred modality Ghana Emergency Medicine Collaborative Advanced Emergency Trauma Course Ghana Emergency Medicine Collaborative Advanced Emergency Trauma Course
Slide 47-

Further GU Trauma Imaging Intravenous pyelogram (IVP) Contrast dye cleared via the kidneys provides a good indication of bilateral renal function if ureteral injury is considered. Can be used when renal injury is suspected and CT scan is not available, but test characteristics are inferior to CT scanning. Abnormal IVP is an indication for CT scan, angiography or surgery. Ultrasonography Ultrasonography is often readily available but does not offer the sensitivity of CT scanning Renal imaging is performed roughly by the FAST examination but might detect renal lacerations with hematoma formation or urinomas. Radionuclide imaging is not indicated in the initial evaluation for renal damage. Retrograde ureterogram is not performed in the emergency setting.

Slide 49-

Genitourinary Injuries Urethral Injuries Almost exclusively in males Anterior urethra injury usually caused by straddle injury Posterior urethra injury usually caused by pelvic fracture Urology consultation, bladder drainage with suprapubic catheter and delayed repair Testicular and Scrotal Injuries – radionuclide study for testicular viability. Consider surgical exploration Penile Injuries – associated with urethral injuries, caused by ruptured Bucks’ fascia and corpus callosum from trauma during erection 90% resolve spontaneously 10% require surgery for hematoma evacuation Ghana Emergency Medicine Collaborative Advanced Emergency Trauma Course
Slide 50-

Genitourinary injuries Renal Injuries – frequently diagnosed by CT and likely not an isolated injury Management involves surgery, urology and angiography Renal Contusion Renal Laceration Pedicle Injury Renal Rupture Renal Pelvic Rupture Ureteral Injuries – rare due to well-protected location Ghana Emergency Medicine Collaborative Advanced Emergency Trauma Course
Slide 51-

Bladder Injuries If imaging is unavailable, can be suspected by inability to aspirate after bladder irrigation CT cystoscopy is replacing traditional cystoscopy as the imaging modality of choice Usually the result of blunt abdominal trauma Bladder contusion – conservative management as hematuria resolves Ghana Emergency Medicine Collaborative Advanced Emergency Trauma Course
Slide 52-

Bladder Rupture Intraperitoneal Less common Not usually associated with pelvic fractures Requires surgical repair Extraperitoneal More common Associated with pelvic fractures Initial conservative management is acceptable Delayed cystogram in 7-10 days as long as patient is able to void with or without foley catheter Unless hematuria continues or pelvic hematoma forms Ghana Emergency Medicine Collaborative Advanced Emergency Trauma Course
Slide 53-

Key Points of GU Trauma GU injuries are highly associated with additional abdominal/pelvic injuries Look for lower abdominal/flank/genital/back ecchymosis or edema Elicit a history of inability to void following injury Explore for hematuria Consider advanced imaging Involve general and specialist surgeons for definitive management and to guide the diagnostic evaluation Ghana Emergency Medicine Collaborative Advanced Emergency Trauma Course
Slide 54-

Special Cases Penetrating Trauma to the Flank Scapular tip to iliac crest, between anterior and posterior Axillary lines Pathophysiology – can violate retro- and intra-peritoneal spaces Clinical Features – Flank ecchymosis, hematuria, abdominal tenderness, CVA tenderness, or UNDIFFERENTIATED HYPOTENSION Diagnosis – triple contrast CT (IV/PO/PR contrast) Treatment – Surgery, angiography or conservative measure are all possible. Ghana Emergency Medicine Collaborative Advanced Emergency Trauma Course
Slide 55-

Special Cases Penetrating Trauma to the Buttocks Pathophysiology Can violate retro-, intra- and extra-peritoneal spaces and structures GI/GU, vascular, neurological and musculoskeletal structures are all at risk Diagnosis – Negative rectal exam does not exclude the diagnosis CT scan should be strongly considered Endoscopy should be avoided due to possible hollow viscus injury worsening in the face of insufflation Management – Surgical consultation Angiography may also be required.
