Our bosses insist on at least 2 sonars at least 12 hours apart... hopefully
will lower the miss rate... We hardly CT abdomens... resource limitations
etc...

If negative on 2 ultrasounds and clinically benign - we feel pretty safe.

Don't forget retroperitoneal injury missed by FAST.

bowel injury - the only thing FAST may "miss" (due to minimal intial fluid)
that CT may also miss.
