Adherence to the guidelines of paediatric cervical spine clearance in a level i trauma centre: A single centre experience
2016, European Journal of RadiologyCitation Excerpt :In total in 37 children under the age of 8 only a lateral view was obtained. Previous literature debated whether the AP-view has additive value [22,23]. However, international guidelines still suggest a lateral and AP-view in all children under the age of 8 year [4–7].

2007, Journal of the American College of RadiologyCitation Excerpt :Conservative estimates in the literature indicate that more than 1 million blunt trauma patients, who have the potential for sustaining cervical spine injuries, are seen in emergency departments in the United States each year. The original literature reviewed for the cervical portion of this ACR Appropriateness Criteria® topic included the initial investigations of 5,719 patients with cervical trauma [1-13]. The literature review for this revision includes data on more than 55,000 patients [14-32], including findings of the National Emergency X-Radiography Utilization Study (NEXUS) on 34,069 patients [23] and from the Canadian C-Spine Rule (CCR) group on 8,924 patients [29].
