Objectives: To determine the perspective of final-year medical students on the use of computed tomography (CT) in patients with sepsis.
Methods: A total of 207 questionnaires were distributed to final-year medical students at a large university medical center, and 113 returned questionnaires met the criteria for inclusion in the analysis. Questions referred to sepsis guidelines, CT indications, and the use of contrast agents.
Objectives: This study aims to describe physicians' perspectives on the use of computed tomography (CT) in patients with sepsis.
Methods: In January 2022, physicians of a large European university medical center were surveyed using a web-based questionnaire asking about their views on the role of CT in sepsis. A total of 371 questionnaires met the inclusion criteria and were analyzed using work experience, workplace, and medical specialty of physicians as variables.
Objective: Patients with severe infection or sepsis require fast identification of the focus and prompt eradication. This study aims at investigating the role of body computed tomography (CT) and identifying outcome predictors in a general ward setting of patients with obscure infection.
Methods: We retrospectively identified 196 consecutive body CTs acquired in 179 patients with obscure infection, i.
