Acute renal failure is frequently diagnosed in the emergency room during a biological assessment. Its discovery requires determining the cause, which may be either functional, or obstructive. The obstructive cause is responsible for 10% of acute renal failure. It is recommended to start the exploration of this pathology with an ultrasound in search of an obstructive cause. However, ultrasound from the radiologist is not always available. The realization of this ultrasound by the emergency physician would reduce the time to obtain the diagnosis and therefore the time of passage to the emergency room. No study has yet been carried out to validate the performance of this ultrasound by the emergency physician in the case of acute renal failure. This study would validate the diagnostic performance of this ultrasound technique in order to identify as quickly as possible patients with acute renal failure whose cause is obstructive.
This study addresses the growing issue of violence against healthcare professionals, particularly in emergency departments. It highlights the increasing prevalence of violence in healthcare settings worldwide, affecting over 50% of workers, with rates higher in developing countries. The text reviews factors contributing to violence, including poor communication, substandard care, and the stress experienced by patients' families. It notes that nearly 100% of emergency nurses face verbal or physical assaults. The research emphasizes the need to understand violence from the perspective of patients' families, a relatively unexplored area. By identifying the factors influencing their violent intentions, effective prevention measures can be developed, improving safety and working conditions for healthcare professionals.
Interappointment pain is a universal concern for clinician and patients alike which remain a significant challenge for dentalprofessional.The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of calcium hydroxide, and triple antibiotic paste as intra-canal medicaments in emergency pain reduction in patients undergoing endodontic treatment .
Aim is to to demonstrate that the ResAppDx v2.0 algorithms provide an accurate diagnosis of respiratory disease in the study's clinical setting compared to a clinical adjudication committee's (CAC) diagnosis; and to establish a baseline for the resource use and cost of current care pathways for respiratory disease diagnosis in an emergency department. Eligible subjects will be consented/enrolled and their subject reported signs/symptoms of respiratory disease will be recorded in the study electronic case report form (eCRF). The enrolled subject's cough sounds will be captured (5 cough sounds are required) using the ResAppDx v2.0 Investigational Device (ID) software installed on a study smartphone; cough sounds may be voluntary and/or involuntary/spontaneous. As this is an observational study the treating team will be blinded to the ResAppDx v2.0 diagnoses. Additional medical information will be collected from the treating team, from the subject and from the subject's medical record. No follow-up/subsequent visits with the subject will be required by the study. As an efficacy comparator, a clinical adjudication committee (CAC) will determine the final clinical diagnosis using the disease case definitions, eCRF data and the subject's medical record. Information on time and scope of tests and consults ordered by the treating team will be recorded to set a baseline for resource use and cost of current standard of care treatment/assessment procedures. This data will allow future health economics analyses to be performed. The blinded ResAppDx v2.0 diagnoses will be unblinded after database lock and sensitivity and specificity will be calculated for the ResAppDx v2.0 diagnoses compared to agreement with the CAC's final clinical diagnoses.
Aim of study is to demonstrate that the ResAppDx v2.0 algorithms provide an accurate diagnosis of paediatric respiratory disease in the study's clinical setting compared to a Clinical Adjudication Committee's (CAC) diagnosis; and to establish a baseline for the resource use and cost of current care pathways for paediatric respiratory disease diagnosis in an emergency department. Eligible subjects/parents will be assented/consented, enrolled and their subject reported signs/symptoms of respiratory disease will be recorded in the study electronic case report form (eCRF).The enrolled subject's cough sounds will be captured (5 cough sounds are required) using the ResAppDx v2.0 Investigational Device (ID) software installed on a study smartphone; cough sounds may be voluntary and/or involuntary/spontaneous. As this is an observational study the treating team will be blinded to the ResAppDx v2.0diagnoses. Additional medical information will be collected from the treating team, from the subject/parent and from the subject's medical record. No follow-up/subsequent visits with the subject will be required by the study. As an efficacy comparator, a CAC will determine the final clinical diagnosis for each enrolled subject using the disease case definitions, eCRF data, the subject's medical record and cough sound recordings.Information on time and scope of tests and consults ordered by the treating team will be recorded to set a baseline for resource use and cost and time of current standard of care treatment/assessment procedures. This data will allow future health economics analyses to be performed.The blinded ResAppDx v2.0diagnoses will be unblinded after database lock and sensitivity and specificity will be calculated for the ResAppDx v2.0diagnoses compared to agreement with the CAC's final clinical diagnoses for this cohort.
Many strategies have been developed for the prevention of to prevent procedural pain in pediatric emergency units where nurses play a vital role in patient comfort.Easy-to-use and inexpensive nonpharmacologic analgesic methods are important in emergency units.This study was conducted to determine the effect of cold spray and ice applied during venipuncture on the level of fear and pain in children ages 7-15. This randomized, controlled experimental study was conducted in the Pediatric Emergency Clinic of Istanbul Gaziosmanpaşa Training and Research Hospital between November 2021 7 and April 2022. The study was conducted with 96 children between the ages of 7 and 15 (cold spray group, ice group, and control group) who were scheduled to have venous access in the pediatric emergency clinic and met the sampling criteria. The Pediatric Emergency Clinic consists of 10 beds. Patients with complaints such as fever, vomiting, diarrhea, and seizures comprise the majority of those admitted to the clinic. In the Pediatric Emergency Clinic, intravenous interventions were performed in the injection room.
The aim of this study is to determine the effect of SIMULATION-BASED EMERGENCY BREX BIRTH MANAGEMENT TRAINING IMPACT ON STUDENTS' SELF-CONFIDENCE AND COMPETENCE.
Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor ACEi induced angioedema ACEi-AE is defined as physical swelling of the deep skin layers or mucous membranes due to increased vascular permeability and leakage of fluid into the interstitial space caused while taking an ACEi
This study is part of a research domain focusing on the acute care chain, which includes the patient journey from symptoms to treatment on the Emergency Medical Department (ED). Within hospitals there is much attention for triage and the amount of time patients spent within the chain, especially for the ED. However, there is less information available on what occurs before patients visit the ED. Gaining more insight in the patient journey in the acute care chain as a whole, might provide important information to further optimize care at the ED. In the current study, 750 patients will be included at multiple ED's in the Netherlands. The primary goal is to gain insight in the patient journey of adult ED patients.
