Filter by:The aim of this study is to assess emergency medicine physician knowledge and technical skill in performance of ultrasound-guided serratus anterior nerve block in a low-fidelity simulation model workshop and to determine the feasibility, acceptability, and usability of the training program. By performing this study, the investigators hope to create a standardized training model which could potentially facilitate POCUS and critical procedural performance and thereby improve patient care.
This study aims to collect the post-cardiac arrest patients with ICU admission.
To learn about the effects of the length of the catheter on the failure and success rate of USIV placement.

Non-invasive ventilation is a mechanical ventilation who provides ventilatory support through a facemask, and without the need for tracheal intubation. In the emergency department, non-invasive ventilation is commonly used for the management of acute respiratory failure related with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or with cardiogenic pulmonary oedema. Non-invasive ventilation is associated with an improvement in the outcomes, such as a decreasing in the intubation rate and in the mortality rate. Non-invasive ventilation failure is defined by a requirement to tracheal intubation in a patient managed by non-invasive ventilation. In the intensive care unit, non-invasive ventilation failure is reported from 15 to 50% of patients according to the ARF aetiologies. Due to delayed intubation, non-invasive ventilation failure is associated with poor outcomes and an increasing in the mortality rate. Due to the emergency department's patients (older and/or not to be intubate patients) the actual definition of non-invasive ventilation failure could not be applied as non-invasive ventilation may have been stopped not because it was unsuccessful but because it was unsuccessful in a patient with a do not intubate decision. Consequently, the prevalence of the absence of non-invasive ventilation success in the emergency department is unclear, and its predictive factor are unknown. The aim is to measure the prevalence of the absence of non-invasive ventilation success in the emergency department. The secondary objective is to measure the association between an absence of non-invasive ventilation success and outcomes and to identify risk factor of an absence of non-invasive ventilation success in the emergency department. It's a prospective observationnal multicenter study in department of Initiative Recherche Urgences Study Groups from January 2024, 15th to January 2024, 20th. The Initiative Recherche Urgences is a research network set up on the initiative of the Société Française de Médecine d'Urgence, with the aim of promoting and coordinating multicentre research projects in the field of emergency medicine, during short inclusion periods. The primary outcome is the proportion of patients who do not have an early success of non-invasive ventilation. The investigators measure the absence of success instead of failure because failure is defined by intubation and most of patients managed with non-invasive ventilation in an emergency department will not be intubated because of their age. The absence of success is defined by at least one of the following criteria measured at 1-hour: death, cardiorespiratory arrest, tracheal intubation, respiratory rate over 30 breaths/min, neurological impairment defined by a Glasgow coma scale < 14, signs of increased work of breathing, haemodynamic failure (defined by mean arterial pressure < 65 mmHg despite volumetric expansion and/or catecholamines), early stop of non-invasive ventilation due to intolerance. The investigators choose to measure at one hour because non-invasive ventilation is provided from one to two hours in the emergency department.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test if treatment with prehospital Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) for patients with acute respiratory failure (ARF), due to acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) based on in-hospital criteria, should be used in the prehospital setting. This is performed with the introduction of prehospital arterial blood gas analyzation. The primary objective is: • To determine if early prehospital applied NIV together with standard medical treatment will affect arterial pH at hospital arrival in patients with ARF due to AECOPD. Participants in the intervention will receive Non-invasive ventilation together with standard medical treatment. The intervention will be compared to standard medical treatment alone, that may include inhaled bronchodilators, intravenous corticosteroids, and titrated oxygen supplementation.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the difference of the gastric volume by quantitative measurements of gastric antrum preoperatively and postoperatively by using 5mg famotidine versus placebo as a risk factor of PONV.
This project is a randomized controlled clinical research design, The hypothesis P-I-C-O of the study is: For adult patients in the Taipei City and New Taipei City communities who have suffered sudden non-traumatic death and have been resuscitated by advanced paramedics, the intervention group that receives combined drug treatment (epinephrine, vasopressin, methylprednisolone) has a better rate of sustained recovery of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) (primary outcome) and long-term survival status (secondary outcomes) compared to the control group that receives single drug treatment (epinephrine).
The aim of the present study is to determine the prevalence of anxiety in adult patients attending the ED of the Medical Centre Leeuwarden.
TOI was used to measure heart rate, respiration, blood pressure, heart rate variability and psychological stress. At the same time, the patient's urine protein, creatinine, urea nitrogen and other indicators were detected. According to different renal function, they were divided into observation group and control group, and 100 general inpatients with renal insufficiency were selected as positive control group. The relationship between TOI composite index and renal function in hypertensive emergency patients was compared.
