Current advanced trauma life support guidelines recommend that a digital rectal examination (DRE) should be performed as part of the initial evaluation of all trauma patients. Our primary goal was to estimate the test characteristics of the DRE in pediatric patients for the following injuries: (1) spinal cord injuries, (2) bowel injuries, (3) rectal injuries, (4) pelvic fractures, and (5) urethral disruptions.
