This study aimed to compare the prognostic value of lactate level and clearance at 6 hours after septic shock recognition. And, we performed it determine kinetics in Sepsis-3 defined shock.This retrospective was from a prospective registry.This single urban tertiary center. all patients were treated with protocol-driven resuscitation bundle therapy between 2010 2016.We included who met definition, which involves levels greater than or equal 2 mmol/L vasopressor use.Serum measured initial...
Of the 27 healthcare workers (HCWs) who had contact with a fatally ill patient severe thrombocytopenia syndrome in Korea (SFTS), 4 were involved cardiopulmonary resuscitation complained of fever and diagnosed SFTS via seroconversion. Exposure to respiratory secretions, blood, or gowns soiled by body fluids was significantly associated infection HCWs.
Preventing delayed neurological sequelae is a major goal of treating acute carbon monoxide poisoning, but to our knowledge there are no reliable tools for assessing the probability these sequelae.To determine whether brain lesions on diffusion-weighted imaging related subsequent development after poisoning.This registry-based observational study was conducted at university hospital in Seoul, Korea, between April 1, 2011, and December 31, 2015. Of 700 patients (aged ≥18 years) with 433...
Emergency tracheal intubation has achieved high success and low complication rates in the emergency department (ED). The objective of this study was to evaluate incidence post-intubation CA determine clinical factors associated with complication.A matched case-control a case control ratio 1:3 conducted at an urban tertiary care center between January 2007 December 2011. Critically ill adult patients requiring airway management ED were included. primary endpoint CA, defined as within 10...
The aim of this study was to determine whether initial shock index (SI) independently associated with the requirement for massive transfusion (MT) in emergency department (ED) patients primary postpartum hemorrhage (PPH). A retrospective cohort ED PPH performed at a university-affiliated, tertiary referral center between January 2004 and May 2012. Patients were classified two groups: MT group (patients who received ≥10 U packed red blood cells within 24 h admission) non-MT <10 U). Variables...
Sodium bicarbonate administration during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is controversial. Current guidelines recommend sodium injection in patients with existing metabolic acidosis, but clinical trials, particularly, those involving are limited. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) severe acidosis prolonged CPR.Prospective, double-blind, randomized placebo-controlled pilot trial was conducted between January 2015 and December 2015, at a single...
To determine the relationship between acid-base findings, such as pH, pCO2, and serum lactate levels, obtained immediately after starting cardiopulmonary resuscitation return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC).A prospective observational study adult, nontraumatic out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients was conducted at an urban academic teaching institution April 1, 2013 March 31, 2015. Arterial blood sample for data taken from all OHCA on arrival to emergency department. Of 224...
The aim of this study was to identify risk factors for recurrent intussusception after a successful reduction by fluoroscopy-guided air enema, the time required recurrence, and association between delayed recurrence.Medical records 479 consecutive children with who underwent enema January 2004 September 2014 were reviewed. Recurrent defined as recurrence within 48 hours reduction. Symptom-to-door from symptom onset emergency department arrival. Door-to-reduction arrival Time-to-recurrence...
Background: Internet search queries have become an important data source in syndromic surveillance system. However, there is currently no system using query South Korea. Objectives: The objective of this study was to examine correlations between our cumulative method and national influenza data. Methods: Our based on the local engine, Daum (approximately 25% market share), influenza-like illness (ILI) from Korea Centers for Disease Control Prevention. A quota sampling survey conducted with...
Hippocampal lesions on diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) are commonly described in transient global amnesia (TGA). We evaluated the utility of DWI and presence hippocampal diagnosis TGA.A total 203 TGA episodes were diagnosed at our emergency department from January 2003 to May 2010. (5-mm slice thickness) was performed using a 1.5 T scanner. Patients divided into 2 groups based DWI: DWI- DWI+. The clinical characteristics time interval development magnetic resonance (MRI) compared.16...
Background The duration of viral shedding is an important determinant infectivity and transmissibility provides vital information for effective infection prevention control. However, few studies have evaluated in patients admitted to hospital with 2009 H1N1 influenza treated oseltamivir. Objective To determine the incidence prolonged 5 days oseltamivir identify factors that promote shedding. Methods This was a prospective, observational cohort study 173 infected (confirmed by RT ‐ PCR ) who...
(1) Background: Sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (AKI) can lead to permanent damage, although the long-term prognosis in patients with septic shock remains unclear. This study aimed identify risk factors for development of chronic disease (CKD) AKI. (2) Methods: A single-site, retrospective cohort was conducted using a registry adult patients. Data from who had developed AKI between January 2011 and April 2017 were extracted, 1-year follow-up data analysed CKD. (3) Results: Among 2208...
Objective This study was aimed at a serial evaluation and comparison of the prognostic values Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) Acute Physiology Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) II scores for neurologic outcomes in comatose, out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) survivors, treated with targeted temperature management (TTM). Methods We analysed prospective cohort comatose OHCA patients, TTM, admitted to an emergency intensive care unit (ICU), between January 2010 December 2015....
Objectives: It is difficult to assess risk in normotensive patients with upper gastrointestinal bleeding. The aim of this study was evaluate whether the initial lactate value can predict in-hospital occurrence hypotension stable acute nonvariceal Design: Retrospective, observational, single-center study. Setting: Emergency department a tertiary-care, university-affiliated hospital during 5-year period. Patients: Medical records 3,489 bleeding who were at presentation emergency department. We...
Digital surveillance using internet search queries can improve both the sensitivity and timeliness of detection a health event, such as an influenza outbreak. While it has recently been estimated that mobile volume surpasses desktop patterns differ from patterns, previous digital systems did not distinguish queries. The purpose this study was to compare performance in terms surveillance.The period September 6, 2010 through August 30, 2014, which consisted four epidemiological years....
Construction workers are exposed to a wide variety of health hazards such as poisoning at the construction sites. Various forms incidents in have been reported. However, studies on methemoglobinemia caused by unintentional ingestion antifreeze admixtures containing sodium nitrite sites not reported yet.The aim this study was evaluate life-threatening after and describe similar involving Korea.Retrospective observational case series patients with admitted emergency department (ED) from...
