Detailed description

The investigators plan to do serial sonographic examinations of the gastric antrum (quantity, quality) in patients suffering from a relevant traumatic injury. Patients which are admitted to the emergency department with a corresponding history are considered for inclusion. Patient with life-threatening injuries are excluded.
