Identification of major hemorrhage in trauma patients in the prehospital setting: diagnostic accuracy and impact on outcome by Nigel R M Tai, Evangelia Kyrimi, Jared M Wohlgemut, Zane B Perkins, William Marsh, Michael Christian, Erhan Pisirir, Rebecca S Stoner, Thomas Hurst

“…Factors associated with overdiagnosis were hypotension (OR 0.99; 95% CI 0.98 to 0.99), polytrauma (OR 1.3, 95% CI 1.1 to 1.6), and diagnostic uncertainty (OR 3.7, 95% CI 1.8 to 7.3). When MH was missed in the prehospital setting, the risk of mortality increased threefold, despite being admitted to an MTC.Conclusion Clinical assessment has only a moderate ability to identify MH in the prehospital setting. …”
