Objectives: This study tests the accuracy of Injury Severity Score (ISS), New (NISS), Revised Trauma (RTS) and (TRISS) in prediction mortality cases geriatric trauma.Design: Prospective observational Materials methods: was a prospective on two hundred elderly trauma patients who were admitted to JSS Hospital, Mysuru over consecutive period 18 months between December 2016 May 2018.On day admission, data collected from each patient compute ISS, NISS, RTS, TRISS.Results: Mean age 66.35...
Despite advances in diagnosis, management and critical care of patients with peritonitis due to hollow viscus perforation, prognosis remains poor. Early assessment by scoring systems will influence the prognosis.Evaluation Mannheim Peritonitis Index (MPI) score for predicting outcome peritonitis.Prospective study 50 admitted operated JSS Medical College Hospital. The structured system i.e. MPI was applied along other clinical biochemical parameters recorded pre-structured proforma. Data...
Nontraumatic undifferentiated hypotension is one of the common and challenging critical presentations in emergency department (ED) due to difficulty diagnosing etiology shock. In present study, an attempt was made test point-of-care ultrasound (PoCUS) as early approach improve accuracy diagnosis narrow differentials cases nontraumatic hypotension.This a prospective explorative study conducted ED tertiary care hospital over period 18 months. A total 100 patients were included study. All >18...
Airway management in the emergency department is challenging because conventional screening tools cannot be applied. Therefore, a rapid noninvasive means of identifying difficult airway will advantageous for physicians.The aim this study to examine association between ultrasound measurements anterior neck soft tissue and as judged by Cormack Lehane grading.A prospective was done 18 months on patients requiring intubation presenting medicine department.Ultrasound were obtained 60 cases at...
Background: The study delves into the pressing issue of Road Traffic Accidents, a significant public health concern worldwide, particularly in low- and middle-income nations. With backdrop 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, road safety has gained paramount importance. This research aims to comprehensively examine multitude factors influencing RTAs by analyzing data sourced from individual interviews, case summaries, medico-legal records tertiary care hospital's Emergency Medicine...
Introduction:Alleviating pain and anxiety of patients during procedures is an essential skill for Emergency Physician (EP).Several sedatives dissociative agents are used PSA (Procedural Sedation Analgesia).In this study, we aimed to compare two drugs that is, ketamine fentanyl procedural sedation in adults with isolated limb injuries the Department (ED).Materials methods: In prospective, randomised controlled interventional trial, aged between 18 65 years extremity injury requiring ED were...
Background: Majority of the patients presenting to emergency department (ED) have pain. ED oligoanalgesia remains a challenge. Aims: This study aims effect implementing protocol-based pain management in on (1) time analgesia and (2) adequacy obtained. Settings Design: Cross-sectional ED. Methods: Patients aged 18–65 years age with numeric rating scale (NRS) ≥4 were included. A series 100 before introduction grouped "pre-protocol," managed as per existing practice. Following this, protocol...
IntroductIonWorldwide, trauma is a leading cause of mortality and morbidity. [1]India features amongst the countries with highest age-standardized rates due to injuries (116 per 100,000 population). [2]The golden hour care after injury characterized by rapid assessment resuscitation.It aimed at early recognition hemorrhagic shock intervention, which forms centerpiece ATLS. [3] present, we rely on traditional vital signs such as blood pressure (BP) heart rate (HR) guide initial workup injured...
Introduction: Rapid Sequence Intubation (RSI) is the definitive modality of airway management when resuscitating trauma patients in Emergency Department (ED). This study was done to evaluate utility POCUS RSI and its efficacy confirming tube placement as compared conventional methods. Aims & Objectives: Primary Objectives - Time taken for evaluation identifying potentially fatal conditions using guided Algorithm (PA) during RSI. Proper endotracheal confirmation same also assessed with...
Self-harm registers (SHRs) are an essential means of monitoring rates self-harm and evaluating preventative interventions, but few SHRs exist in countries with the highest burden suicides self-harm. Current international guidance on establishing recommends data collection from emergency departments, this does not adequately consider differences provision care globally. We aim to demonstrate that process mapping can be used prior implementation SHR understand differing hospital systems. This...
Background: Early identification of patients with an emergent large vessel occlusion (ELVO) ischemic stroke is crucial in the Emergency Department (ED), as they are ideal candidates for endovascular therapy.With this study, we have attempted to use Vision, Aphasia, Neglect (VAN) screening tool ED rapid ELVO and compared its performance National Institute Health Stroke Severity (NIHSS) scale. Materials methods:A prospective observational study was conducted a tertiary care hospital over 18...
Context: Alleviating significant pain and enhancing lung function in patients with multiple rib fractures presents a formidable challenge to all emergency physicians (EPs). Conventional pharmacological measures traditional thoracic regional analgesia techniques are not always feasible or safe the department (ED). Therefore, an effective, feasible, method for providing such will be extremely advantageous EPs alike. Here, we describe utility of block technique that can applied suffering from...
