To investigate the potential impact of implementing alternatives to opioids (ALTOs) protocol in a community emergency department (ED) North Texas. We hypothesize that ALTO is associated with decreased opioid utilization without affecting patient satisfaction pain control and ED flow. A retrospective, single-center, cohort study. An urban ED. Adult patients (age >18 years old) who received medications during study timeframe were included. total 34,251 included for final analysis. Patients...
Introduction: Stroke is the fifth leading cause of death and long-term disability in United States. The current guideline for stroke management includes a 25 min timeframe from door-to-computed tomography time (DTCT). However, sociodemographic backgrounds may impact DTCT acute patients. Methods: This was retrospective, multicenter, cohort study between January 2018 August 2022 throughout North Texas. primary endpoint ≤ upon arrival to hospital all patients suspected ischemic stroke. Results:...
There is no existing adequate blood transfusion needs determination tool that Emergency Medical Services (EMS) personnel can use for prehospital initiation. In this study, a simple and pragmatic scoring system was derived validated.Local trauma registry data were reviewed retrospectively from 2004 through 2013. Patients randomly assigned to derivation validation cohorts. Multivariate logistic regression used identify the independent approachable risks associated with early in cohort which...
Early recognition of sepsis and the prediction mortality in patients with infection are important. This multi-center, ED-based study aimed to develop validate a 28-day model for using various machine learning (ML) algorithms.Patients acute requiring intravenous antibiotic treatment during first 24 h admission were prospectively recruited. Patient demographics, comorbidities, clinical signs symptoms, laboratory test data, selected sepsis-related novel biomarkers, collected divided into...
There are only a few models developed for risk-stratifying COVID-19 patients with suspected pneumonia in the emergency department (ED). We aimed to develop and validate model, ED mortality index (CoV-ED-PMI), predicting this population. retrospectively included adult who visited EDs of five study hospitals Texas were diagnosed between March November 2020. The primary outcome was 1-month after visit. In derivation cohort, multivariable logistic regression used CoV-ED-PMI model....
A 50-year-old woman with a history of mild atopic dermatitis presented to the emergency department (ED) for evaluation new rash slowly worsening over 3–4 weeks. She had erythematous patches and plaques desquamating scale that together involved 80% her body surface area (Figure 1). It spared palms, soles, mucosa (Figures 2 3). reported no medications or exposures. Shortly after started, topical ketoconazole permethrin were prescribed without benefit. Basic lab tests unremarkable except...
Diverse coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) mortalities have been reported but focused on identifying susceptible patients at risk of more severe or death. This study aims to investigate the mortality variations COVID-19 from different hospital settings during pandemic phases.We retrospectively included adult (≥18 years) who visited emergency departments (ED) five hospitals in state Texas and were diagnosed with between March-November 2020. The dichotomized into urban suburban based their...
Acute vertigo represents a common chief complaint in the emergency department (ED).Its etiology is broad and warrants special consideration as it may represent more benign causes originating from peripheral cause or be indicative of central such posterior circulation infarct.Due to limitations neuroimaging during acute phase stroke presentation, rate misdiagnosis among these patients remains high, with some studies showing evidence rates up 59% [1].Despite high sensitivity specificity Head...
