Background: Procedural competency is a vital component of emergency medicine (EM) residency. Chest tube thoracostomy can be an emergent lifesaving procedure that all graduating EM residents should competent in performing. Simulated task trainers for are commercially available and described the literature, however, financial constraints anatomical inconsistencies represent drawbacks these devices. Methods: TITUS (Thoracic Intervention Training Unit Simulator) was developed to create chest...
Compartment syndrome is a serious condition that requires prompt diagnosis, specialty consultation, and definitive management to prevent significant morbidity. Traditionally, compartment identified by physical exam findings including the presence of pain, pallor, paresthesia, pulselessness, paralysis involving affected limb. Identifying prior onset signs portend poor outcome (i.e. paralysis) can be challenging since many other less traumatic conditions lead paresthesia pain in Bedside...
Follow-up case presentation (FCP), a staple of emergency medicine residency conference curricula nationwide, has traditionally been delivered using PowerPoint(TM) (PP). The sole use the PP lecture format may limit audience participation. In light existing literature supporting chalkboard and morning report formats, we changed FCP to an interactive with limited slides. We hypothesised that this change will enhance perceived educational impact on learners.To examine learners' perceptions...
Methods: This planned secondary analysis of an IRB approved database enrolled EM residents from a PGY 1-4 residency.Both sims were toxic ingestions: adult ACLS case conducted in the sim lab and PALS in-situ pediatric ED.MSF feedback was generated using Queens Simulation Assessment Tool (QSAT) specific to self-evaluation, junior resident, EMS provider (adult), nurse (2 peds) two faculty.In both communication consulting toxicologist admitting intensivist measured 5C's model.The summed QSAT 5C...
Introduction Procedural competency is a vital component of emergency medicine (EM) and general surgery residency training dedicated focus in the ACGME Milestone Project. Chest tube thoracostomy can be an emergent lifesaving procedure that all graduating EM residents should competent performing. Practicing procedures through use simulation affords learner opportunity to learn perform these crucial actions prior performing invasive on live patient. Simulation manikins devices for chest are...
An adult male with a history of caecal adenocarcinoma and subsequent right hemicolectomy presented to the emergency department abdominal pain, nausea non-bilious emesis. He was diffusely tender palpation across abdomen marked distention. His vital signs laboratory tests were unremarkable. pain improved intravenous opioid medication. urinalysis negative. A point-of-care ultrasound (figure 1) performed by …
It is important for physicians to be mindful of the possibility a foreign body in context extremity trauma. Patients with bodies may not suspect their presence, and significant proportion are missed by initial treating physician. Trauma injuries peripheral vasculature can divided into blunt penetrating trauma, also classified as occlusive or nonocclusive injuries. This review details assessment stabilization, diagnosis, treatment disposition, outcomes patients vascular Figures show beside...
Orthopedic extremity injuries may require emergent orthopedic consultation, but are typically managed by the acute care provider. Initial management for all fractures should focus on providing immediate analgesia and ensuring adequate blood flow distal to fracture. This review summarizes assessment stabilization, diagnosis, treatment disposition, outcomes fractures, dislocations, sprains. Figures include illustrations of fracture types, carpal bones their articlulation in wrist, hand,...
