Factors Influencing General Surgeons To Involve Urologists In Bladder Trauma Management, Joseph Schultz, Paul Chung, Md
Phase 1
Introduction: Bladder trauma injuries, which are graded by severity, often require immediate care and surgical management by General Surgeons (GS) or Urologists. This study seeks to understand the inconsistencies that exist in collaboration between GS and Urologists in bladder trauma management. We hypothesize that the decision for GS to involve Urologists in bladder trauma management is a multifactorial decision with severity of bladder trauma being the primary determining factor as opposed to other factors like provider experience or hospital setting.
