Summary

In this retrospective observational case study, the investigators review the clinical experience with pressure-pain algometry in children with suspected appendicitis. The investigators hypothesized that algometry can discriminate children with appendicitis from children without appendicitis and aimed to determine the diagnostic accuracy of algometry, compared to ultrasound imaging and clinical assessment.
