Survey: Rapid Evaluation with SCrotal Ultrasound Prior to Exploration (RESCUE) Study
British Urology Researchers in Surgical Training are conducting a study on Rapid Evaluation with Scrotal Ultrasound Prior to Exploration (RESCUE).
The RESCUE Study will assess the diagnostic accuracy of point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) in patients with suspected testicular torsion.
To support this project, please complete the survey and provide a retrospective number of scrotal explorations that have taken place in your hospital.
The data collection form is available online.
The data collection is short and won't take more than a few minutes to complete once you have access to the necessary data.
Data required:
- Contact details
- Name of hospital
- Data collection date range (12 months is the preferred duration)
- Number of scrotal explorations
- Frequency of middle grade on call e.g. 1 in 6
- Patient age range served by your centre
The final date for data entry is Sunday 9 July 2023.
If you have any questions, please contact the RESCUE team and Arjun Nathan via email.
