Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) is a rapidly developing technology that has the potential to revolutionize emergency and critical care medicine. The use of POCUS can improve patient by providing real-time clinical information. However, appropriate usage proper training are crucial ensure safety reliability. This article discusses various applications in medicine, importance education, future
Abstract Rationale: Sodium nitrite intoxication reportedly causes severe methemoglobinemia. Recent studies reported that most clinically significant cases resulted from intentional exposure in suicidal attempts. We describe 2 of methemoglobinemia secondary to sodium Patients concerns: A 26-year-old man and 20-year-old woman attempted suicide by taking nitrite, were brought the emergency department. Diagnosis: The male patient collapsed at scene. He ingested approximately 18 g nitrate, his...
Abstract Emergency department (ED) crowding is a public health burden that impedes the provision of high-quality emergency care and related to poor outcomes. Frequent ED visits are known contribute crowding. This study aimed identify frequent users’ characteristics risk factors visits. A retrospective observational was conducted using ED-based data derived from adult patients at university hospital. The main exposure variable visits, which were defined as ≥4 within 12 months (January...
Despite recent improvements in advanced life support, the overall survival rate after cardiac arrest remains low. We aimed to examine association of a multidisciplinary team approach with clinical outcomes patients undergoing extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) emergency department (ED).This retrospective, single-center, observational study included 125 who underwent ECPR ED between May 2004-December 2018. In January 2014, our institution implemented membrane oxygenation...
Background Suicide among the elderly is a public health concern, as life expectancy increasing rapidly and suicide rates increase with age. In Korea, self-poisoning most common method of attempted suicide. This study aimed to evaluate characteristics by identify risk factors related attempts. Methods A cross-sectional observational was conducted using Emergency Department-based Injury In-depth Surveillance database in Korea. We included all adult patients visiting emergency department (ED)...
This study evaluated automated machine learning (AutoML) in classifying the presence or absence of hemoperitoneum ultrasonography (USG) images Morrison's pouch. In this multicenter, retrospective study, 864 trauma patients from and emergency medical centers South Korea were included. all, 2200 USG (1100 1100 normal) collected. Of these, 1800 used for training 200 internal validation AutoML. External was performed using 100 normal collected separately a center that not included sets. Google's...
Perihepatic capsulitis is associated with various diseases, such as Fitz-Hugh-Curtis syndrome, systemic lupus erythematosus, perforated cholecystitis, hepatic abscess, and tuberculous peritonitis. Miliary tuberculosis present in about 2% of all reported cases characterized by the widespread millet-like hematogenous dissemination Mycobacterium tuberculosis. We describe a 24-year-old virgin patient presenting right upper quadrant costovertebral angle pain. Diffuse perihepatic capsular...
Introduction: Acute pulmonary embolism is a confirmed cause of up to 5% out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest and 5%–13% unexplained in patients. However, the true incidence may be much higher, as often clinically underdiagnosed. Thrombolytic therapy recognized for embolism–associated but not routinely recommended during cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Therefore, clinicians should attempt identify patients with suspected embolism. Many point‐of care ultrasound protocols suggest diagnosis Case...
Objectives: Vascular access is an important procedure for drug administration during the resuscitation of a patient with cardiac arrest; however, it can be challenging under emergent conditions. This study aimed to investigate efficiency ultrasound-guided internal jugular venous using midline catheter versus peripheral intravenous cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Methods: was prospective single-center observational among patients who received The primary outcomes were success rate first...
Abstract Objective Obtaining an optimal knee skyline view is challenging due to inaccuracies in beam projection angles (BPAs) and soft tissue obscuring bony landmarks. This study aimed assess the impact of BPA deviations on patellofemoral index measurements assessed anterior border proximal tibia as anatomic landmark for guiding BPAs. Materials methods retrospective consisted three parts. The first was a simulation using 52 CT scans knees with 20° flexion contracture replicate (Laurin) view....
We would report a recent experience where the use of malleable stylet was critical to successful tracheal intubation during an ICU emergency. The patient in condition, characterized by multiple unsuccessful attempts and worrying drop oxygen saturation 80%. attending physician had made several attempts. patient, who Modified Cormack–Lehane grade 2a on video-laryngoscopy, also short neck limited extension, which complicated procedure.1 Although partial view vocal cords obtained using two...
The apolipoprotein E (APOE) epsilon 4 gene has been considered to be the major genetic risk factor for Alzheimer's disease (AD). effect of APOE polymorphism on brain white matter integrity still remains unclear in late-onset depression (LOD). aim study is investigate relationship between alteration and APO E4 patients with LOD elucidate as a AD. A total 60 normal controls were investigated tract based spatial statistics (TBSS) which newer voxel diffusion tensor imaging analysis method. We...
Purpose: Acute carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning is one of the most common types and a major health problem worldwide. Treatment options are limited to normobaric oxygen therapy, administered using non-rebreather face mask or hyperbaric oxygen. Compared conventional high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) creates positive pressure effect through rates. The purpose this human pilot study determine effects HFNC on rate CO clearance from blood, in patients with mild moderate poisoning. Methods: CO-poisoned...
As the efficacy of chemotherapy and adjuvant endocrine therapy for breast cancer increase, quality-of-life to survivors could be more important issue in strategies treatment. Bone health has become compelling care survivor than ever before. This retrospective study was aimed evaluate factors relating change BMD ascertain correlation between changes EMT women with follow-up. Records 164 who underwent surgery were reviewed this study. The basal characteristics included parity, menopausal...
Objectives Given that cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is an aerosol-generating procedure, it necessary to use a mechanical ventilator and reduce the number of providers involved in for in-hospital cardiac arrest coronavirus disease (COVID-19) patients or suspected COVID-19 patients. However, no study assessed effect changes inspiratory time on flowrate airway pressure during CPR. We herein aimed determine these parameters CPR identify appropriate management adults Methods measured tidal...
