Inclusion Criteria

Data on trauma patients who visited our center during the study period were obtained through electronic medical record review. The inclusion criteria for the present study were adult patients aged over 18 years who suffered blunt abdominal trauma and hemodynamically stable patients with clear consciousness.

Exclusion Criteria

The exclusion criteria were patients who did not undergo a CT scan due to unstable vital signs, patients who were lost to follow-up owing to transfer to other hospitals, patients in whom free air was observed on CT, patients in whom no damage was observed on CT, and those in whom the cause of intra-abdominal fluid collection was indistinguishable from medical causes (e.g., liver cirrhosis).
