From the Wake Forest School of Medicine (K.S.H., R.A., C.S.O., N.P.P., C.P.G., S.Q.W., M.E.Z.). Winston-Salem, North Carolina.
Background And Purpose: Screening patients with trauma for blunt cerebrovascular injury with neck CTA is a common practice, but there remains disagreement regarding which patients should be screened. We reviewed adult blunt cerebrovascular injury data from a level 1 trauma center to investigate whether screening is warranted in low-mechanism trauma.
Materials And Methods: We reviewed all neck CTAs performed on adult trauma patients in the emergency department during the 2019 calendar year.
