Accuracy of Physician Gestalt in Prediction of Significant Abdominal and Pelvic Injury in Adult Blunt Trauma Patients.

Physician gestalt for the prediction of CSI adult abdominal and pelvic is moderately accurate and calibrated. However, the potential missed CSI rate and low sensitivity of the low perceived risk of injury cutoffs indicate that gestalt by itself is insufficient to direct selective abdominal/pelvic CT use in adult blunt trauma patient evaluation.
