This study aims to investigate the attitudes of European emergency physicians towards prescribing antibiotics in blunt thoracic trauma for infection prophylaxis.

This e-survey will help us better understand how we currently manage blunt thoracic trauma in emergency departments across Europe, and to inform the scientific community about the need for future randomised controlled trials.

For further information please read the synopsis of the study protocol.
