ABSTRACTBackgroundNon-operative management (NOM) for blunt solid organ injuries has become the standard of care for patients who are hemodynamically stable, without other indications for explorative laparotomy. Our aims were to develop evidence-based guidelines to correctly identify the indications for NOM in adult blunt trauma patient, the best and most appropriate modality for follow-up, and the best techniques to manage complications.MethodsThe literature since 2000 to 2016 was systematically screened according to PRISMA [Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and meta-analyses] protocol. Sixty-three articles were reviewed by a panel of experts to assign grade of recommendation (GoR) and level of evidence (LoE) using the GRADE [Grading of recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation] system, and an international consensus conference was held.ResultsIn stable patients, without other indications for surgery, NOM is the initial treatment of choice for splenic, hepatic and renal injuries, regardless of grade. NOM is indicated in grade I-II pancreatic trauma, without ductal injury. Contrast enhanced computed tomography is mandatory to correctly plan NOM. Angioembolization has proven to be an effective adjunct in NOM to control bleeding, thereby reducing the need for surgery. Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangio Pancreatography is useful to control biliary and pancreatic complications of NOM.ConclusionNOM is feasible even in high grade parenchymal injuries, but logistic and technical resources must be available 24/7 to safely manage the patients.
