Über die Unsicherheit mit der „Treffsicherheit“

Abstract: A diagnostic "striking accuracy" causes more inaccuracy than accuracy. Undefined terms like this are nearly worthless because they are used differently in the literature and cannot be compared. To compare the results of diagnostic studies scientifically it is necessary to use defined terms.

In a prospective study, real-time ultrasonography was applied as the initial imaging procedure in 103 consecutive patients with blunt abdominal or thoracic trauma. Additional peritoneal lavage was not performed. Pathological findings were present in 22 patients (21%). Sensitivity of the examination was 95.5%, with two false positive results, specificity was 97.5% with one false negative result. Lesions of intraabdominal or thoracic organs were demonstrated directly by ultrasonography in 14 patients. In the remaining patients free fluid was discovered in the abdominal cavity. Splenic and hepatic lesions occurred most frequently followed by hematothorax. Ultrasonography can be recommended as the initial imaging procedure, giving a high amount of information in the primary diagnosis of blunt abdominal thoracic trauma.
