Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and quality of a pre-hospital holistic multifunctional teleconsultation system. This system consists of on-line transmissions of vital parameters, audio- and video-signals from the scene to a telemedicine centre, where a trained emergency physician (tele-EMS physician) uses software-based guideline conform algorithms for diagnosis and treatment. At the prehospital emergency scene half of the patients will receive this telemedicine-based approach and the other half the conventional emergency physician-based care.
The aim of this study was to explore participants´ subjective experiences and perspectives on pain and other factors of importance after an early nursing intervention consisting of "caring touch" (tactile massage and healing touch) for participants subjected to a motor vehicle accident with minor or no physical injuries.

All patients undergoing emergent endotracheal intubation (RSI) at the Emergency Department will be screened for inclusion in this clinical study. The indication of endotracheal intubation is an exclusively clinical decision and is not affected by this study protocol in any aspect. If fulfilling the In- and exclusion criteria's, patient will be randomly assigned to one of two groups 1. C-MAC Videolaryngoscope in appropriate size 2. conventional endotracheal intubation using Macintosh Blade in appropriate size Randomization (1:1) will be based on computer-generated codes maintained in sequentially numbered opaque envelopes that will be opened immediately before randomization.
The primary objectives are: 1. To investigate which healthcare workers and other individuals contribute to the decision to order computed tomography (CT) scans for emergency department (ED) patients. 2. To investigate the specific reasons healthcare workers and other individuals order or request CT scans for ED patients. 3. To determine the frequency of clinically important actions following CT scan results. Once the drivers of ED CT utilization are identified, interventions including education, incentives for compliance with evidence-based best practices, and interventions for noncompliance could be targeted appropriately.
New York-Presbyterian Hospital has created a system that notifies its primary care providers whenever their patients are admitted to the hospital.
