当超声波上无法看到尾时,急性尾炎 (AA) 诊断,低白细胞计数和阿尔瓦拉多得分低于6表明它不太可能. 这一发现可以帮助避免不必要的高级成像,如CT扫描.
科学领域:
- 放射学 放射学是一门学科.
- 紧急医疗 紧急医疗
- 手术诊断手术诊断的使用方法
背景情况:
- 超声波 (USG) 是诊断急性尾炎 (AA) 的主要成像方法.
- 然而,在许多情况下,USG可能无法可视化附件.
- 这就需要评估替代诊断途径和成像策略.
研究的目的:
- 追溯分析患者的临床,成像和病理学数据,这些患者的尾在USG上没有可视化.
- 指导临床医生在初始超声波图无法确定时,在诊断急性尾炎时采取适当的下一步.
- 在这些具有挑战性的病例中,确定可以帮助区分尾炎和其他疾病的因素.
主要方法:
- 对176名疑似急性尾炎 (AA) 的患者 (2021年1月至2021年12月) 的回顾性分析,在初始超声波 (USG) 上没有可视化尾炎.
- 审查了临床,成像 (包括计算机断层扫描 - - CT) 和病理学结果.
- 根据CT是否进行和最终诊断 (AA或其他) 的情况,患者进行了比较.
主要成果:
- 在176名患者中,15名 (8.5%) 被病理诊断为AA. 两名没有CT出院的患者后来被诊断为AA.
- 被诊断为AA的患者的白细胞 (WBC) 计数显着更高 (13.4 vs 10.3 × 10^3/mL,p=0.009) 和阿尔瓦拉多分数≥6的比例更高 (80% vs 4.3%,p<0.001).
- 44.9%的患者进行了计算机断层扫描 (CT),而55.1%的患者没有接受CT.
结论:
- 在USG上没有可视化尾的情况下,白细胞不存在 (白细胞数增加) 和阿尔瓦拉多分数低于6可能表明急性尾炎 (AA) 的可能性较低.
- 这些临床和实验室发现可能有助于临床医生避免进一步的CT或MRI等调查.
- 这种方法可以优化资源利用,并减少患者暴露于辐射.

Ultrasound I: Abdominal Ultrasonography
Abdominal ultrasonography, commonly known as abdominal ultrasound, is a vital, non-invasive medical imaging technique widely used in healthcare.
Procedure:
This diagnostic tool allows the clinician to visually inspect internal structures within the abdomen, including vital organs such as the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, kidneys, and spleen.
The abdominal ultrasound process begins with applying a special gel to the patient's skin over the abdomen. This gel enhances the...
Assessment of the Abdomen I: Inspection and Auscultation
The abdominal examination is a cornerstone of clinical medicine, serving as a critical tool in diagnosing various gastrointestinal (GI) diseases. It involves a systematic approach that includes inspection and auscultation, each with distinct yet complementary roles in assessing the abdomen. This article will delve into these two primary methods healthcare professionals use to examine the abdomen.
Inspection of the Abdomen
The first step in any abdominal examination is inspection....
