Airway management is a fundamental and complex process that involves a sequence of integrated tasks. Situations requiring emergency airway management may occur in the emergency department, intensive care units, and various other clinical spaces. A variety of challenges can arise...
Uncontrolled hemorrhage and trauma-induced coagulopathy (TIC) are the two predominant causes of preventable death after trauma. Early control of bleeding sources and rapid detection, characterization and management of TIC have been associated with improved outcomes. However, rec...
Objective: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is associated with exacerbations and high risk of serious outcomes. Our goal was to determine the appropriateness of the emergency department (ED) management of COPD exacerbations.
Methods: This observational cohort study ...
Objective: The Korean National Fire Agency conducted a pilot project examining Advanced Life Support (ALS) protocols, including epinephrine administration, to improve survival among patients suffering out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). In this study, we aimed to evaluate the...
Objective: Effective triage of febrile patients in the emergency department is crucial during times of overcrowding to prioritize care and allocate resources, especially during pandemics. However, available triage tools often require laboratory data and lack accuracy. We aimed t...
Objective Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a vascular disease that is most frequently diagnosed using the radiological imaging technique computed tomography pulmonary angiography (CTPA). In this study, we aimed to demonstrate the diagnostic accuracy of the Hounsfield unit (HU) for PE ...
In a prehospital setting, the narrow therapeutic window of epinephrine necessitates its cautious administration to avoid anaphylaxis. In this case, a 46-year-old man presented severe anaphylactic symptoms. Following the standard protocol, the emergency medical technician (EMT) a...
Administering lifesaving fluids and medications during pediatric emergency resuscitation inevitably requires rapid vascular access. Traditional intravenous access often requires multiple attempts; therefore, securing vascular access can be time-consuming [1]. Particularly in ped...
