BACKGROUND: Acute abdominal pain is often caused by intestinal obstruction, with high morbidity, and mortality, so that the early diagnosis is particularly important. Currently, both spiral CT and ultrasound are common imaging diagnostic methods. However, the accuracy and practicality of the diagnosis are controversial. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to systematically evaluate the accuracy and practicality of spiral CT and ultrasound in the diagnosis of intestinal obstruction. METHODS: Retrieval of English database (PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, the Cochrane Library) and Chinese database (CNKI, WAN FANG, VIP, CBMDISC) by computers. From the establishment of the database to October 2020, a diagnostic experimental study on the diagnosis of intestinal obstruction by ultrasound and spiral CT was conducted. Two researchers independently conducted data extraction and quality evaluation of literature on the included studies, and Meta Disc1.4 and RevMan5.3 were used for meta-analysis on the included literature. RESULTS: Sensitivity, specificity, po-sitive Likelihood ratio, NE-Gative likelihood ratio, diagnostic odds ratio and other indicators were used to determine the diagnostic efficacy of ultrasound and helical CT. CONCLUSION: This study is aimed at providing an evidence-based basis for clinicians to choose an appropriate or optimal diagnostic method by comparison of the accuracy and practicality between spiral CT and ultrasound in the diagnosis of intestinal obstruction. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: The private information from individuals will not be published. This systematic review also will not involve endangering participant rights. Ethical approval is not required. The results may be published in a peer-reviewed journal or disseminated in relevant conferences. OSF REGISTRATION NUMBER: DOI 10.17605/ OSF.IO / Q5RNS.
