Diagnostic exploratory celiotomy as the primary procedure in the trauma patient is rarely indicated since the validation of peritoneal lavage as a diagnostic technic. The accuracy of diagnostic peritoneal lavage is clearly superior to that of initial or repetitive clinical evaluation of trauma patients, and its cost is miniscule compared with unnecessary diagnostic celiotomy.
自从腹腔灌洗作为一种诊断技术得到认可后，诊断性剖腹探查术作为创伤患者的主要手术方式已很少被采用。诊断性腹腔灌洗的准确性明显优于对创伤患者进行的初次或重复临床评估，而且与不必要的诊断性剖腹探查术相比，其费用微不足道。
