Lung sonography has rapidly emerged as a reliable technique in the evaluation of various thoracic diseases. One important, well-established application is diagnosis pneumothorax. Prompt and accurate pneumothorax management critical patient can prevent progression into life-threatening situation. Sonographic signs, including 'lung sliding', 'B-lines' or 'comet tail artifacts', 'A-lines', 'the lung point sign' help Ultrasound higher sensitivity than traditional upright anteroposterior chest...
Supporting an "ultrasound-first" approach to evaluating renal colic in the emergency department (ED) remains important for improving patient care and decreasing healthcare costs. Our primary objective was compare physician (EP) ultrasound computed tomography (CT) detection of hydronephrosis severity patients with suspected colic. We calculated test characteristics on EP-performed detecting ureteral stones or stone size >5mm. then analyzed association ultrasound, >5mm, proximal location...
Objectives Gamification is a powerful tool in medical education. SonoGames competitive games‐based event designed to educate and inspire emergency medicine (EM) residents about point‐of‐care ultrasound. We sought describe: (1) the perceived effectiveness of on both immediate learning long‐term education; (2) resultant attitudes participants program directors regarding ultrasound training. Methods The Organizational Committee 2 surveys: 1 for V EM resident second directors. Survey questions...
<b>Background:</b> Increase in lactate (LAC) within the central nervous system after head trauma is an established marker of traumatic brain injury (TBI). <b>Objective:</b> To investigate utility arterial base deficit (BD) and LAC identifying TBI patients with isolated (IHI). <b>Materials methods:</b> was defined as Glasgow Coma Scale ⩽8, Abbreviated Injury Severity Score >2 or haematoma on CT scan. Patients were divided into two groups: IHI without TBI. Data reported means (SDs). 131...
Academic medicine continues to struggle in its efforts compensate scholarly productivity. achievements receive less recognition compared clinical work, evidenced by a lack of reduced hours or financial incentive. Core departmental education responsibilities are often distributed inequitably across academic departments. An approach using an incentive program, which emphasizes transparency, equity, and consensus may help departments share core reward activity.We launched two-stage confront the...
Providing feedback is a fundamental principle in medical education; however, as educators, our community lacks the necessary skills to give meaningful, impactful those under supervision. By improving feedback-giving skills, we provide concrete ways for trainees optimize their performance, ultimately leading better patient care.In this faculty development workshop, groups used six video vignettes scripted, enacted, and produced by residents arrive at shared mental model of feedback. During...
ABSTRACT Purpose Our primary aim was to evaluate the use of ultrasound (US) as an initial screening test for diagnosing appendicitis in young adult men. Secondary exploratory analyses included effects using US these patients, compared with CT, on radiation exposure, length stay (LOS), and cost imaging. Methods We retrospectively gathered data from records male patients 18–39 years old who had been admitted between June 2006 September 2011. investigated diagnostic tests performed, patients'...
As point-of-care ultrasound units become more compact and portable, clinicians in over 20 different medical surgical specialties have begun using the technology diverse clinical applications. However, a knowledge gap still exists between what students are learning their undergraduate education curriculum skills required for practice. Over last 10 years, content has been slowly incorporated into education, yet only handful of schools developed curricula. This module was at our institution...
Prior literature has demonstrated incongruities among faculty evaluation of male and female residents' procedural competency during residency training. There are no known studies investigating gender differences in the assessment skills emergency medicine (EM) residents, such as those required by ultrasound. The objective this study was to determine if there significant ultrasound milestone evaluations EM
