2024年10月13日 · Focused Assessment with Sonography for Trauma (FAST) scan is a point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) examination performed at the time of presentation of a trauma patient. It is invariably performed by a clinician, who should be formally trained, and is considered as an 'extension' of the trauma clinical assessment process, to aid rapid decision making.

2021年10月19日 · The FAST exam, per ATLS protocol, is performed immediately after the primary survey of the ATLS protocol. Ultrasound is the ideal initial imaging modality because it can be performed simultaneously with evaluation and resuscitation, providing vital information without the time delay caused by radiographs or computed tomography (CT).

A bedside EFAST ultrasound was conducted to assess for free fluid with clinical indication of trauma. Cardiac, RUQ, pelvic, LUQ, and pulmonary views were adequately obtained.

Conclusion Surgeon performed trauma room extended FAST is simple and has higher sensitivity compared to the chest X-ray and clinical examination in detecting pneumothorax. EFAST has a promising role in the management of polytrauma patients and may be …

2024年11月7日 · 扩展的创伤超声重点评估法（extended Focused Assessment with Sonography in Trauma，eFAST)是快速评估创伤患者的宝贵诊断工具。 它有助于识别危及生命的情况，例如 气胸 、 心包填塞 和 腹腔内游离液体，这些情况在钝性或穿透性创伤后很常见。

Extended focused assessment with sonography for trauma (eFAST) is a non-invasive point-of-care test, which can guide clinical decision making. Clinicians should be mindful of the strengths and limitations of eFAST, and interpret results in the context of the mechanism of injury and the evolving clinical situation.

2024年10月11日 · The EFAST technique is a rapid ultrasound method introduced into ATLS guidelines since 2006 for the evaluation of trauma patients. It allows for the detection of free fluid in the abdomen, pericardial tamponade, and pneumothorax within 2 to 3 minutes without impacting management times in pre-hospital settings.

2020年12月29日 · O FAST (Focused Assessment with Sonography for Trauma) é um método ultrassonográfico utilizado, principalmente, para detectar a presença de líquido livre em pacientes traumatizados.

What is the FAST Exam? Pericardium – is there a pericardial effusion? Peritoneum – is there fluid in the peritoneal cavity? Evaluating thorax – hemothorax or pneumothorax? 1. Right upper quadrant (Morison’s pouch) 2. Left upper quadrant (Splenorenal recess) 3. Sub-xiphoid cardiac window (Subcostal view) 4. Suprapubic window (Pelvic view) 5.

E-FAST (Extended Focused Assessment with Sonography in Trauma) is a bedside ultrasonographic protocol designed to detect peritoneal fluid, pericardial fluid, pneumothorax, and/or hemothorax in a trauma patient.
