For various reasons this ordnance can misfire resulting in failure to detonate and become impaled or embedded in those near an intended target. The management of the patient with an impaled or embedded unexploded ordnance (eUXO) is a high impact event with the potential to cause death of those in proximity and destruction of the health care facility. The probability of this event is low with less than 50 cases reported in the literature. The objective of this study is to use a modified Delphi approach to produce statements to develop treatment guidelines of the eUXO patient in low-resource settings without explosive ordnance disposal team (EOD) assets.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Materials and Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Fifty-three statements were derived from authoritative texts and a PRISMA-Scoping review through an iterative process by the authors. Included experts rated their agreement with each statement on a 7-point linear numeric scale. Consensus amongst experts was defined as a standard deviation \u22641. Statements attaining consensus after the first and subsequent rounds moved to the final report. Statements that did not attain consensus moved to the next round and this process repeated for 3 rounds. The remaining statements did not attain consensus. The University of South Florida Institutional Review Board determined that this study met the criteria for exemption.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n
