Study type | Interventional |
An Emergency Department Targeted Ultrasound (EDTU) is an ultrasound examination performed by
an emergency department physician, instead of a radiologist or ultrasound technician. EDTU
is intended to be a readily assessable test performed at the bedside, to quickly and safely
determine the presence of a disease state; it answers a binary question, as compared to
formal ultrasound imaging which seeks to determine the cause of a patient's symptoms.
The objective of this study is to determine the accuracy of EDTU in patients suspected of
renal colic. By demonstrating excellent test characteristics, these investigators hope that
this research will be used to incorporate EDTU for hydronephrosis into standard emergency
care in Canada.
