A large multicenter study found that emergency department triage mismatches were linked to small delays in care and longer stays, especially for overtriaged patients. Better use of patient history may improve triage accuracy.
A large multisite cohort found delirium in 16% of older adults in the emergency department, including nearly 8% of those discharged, with strong links to dementia, acuity, hospitalization, and 30-day readmission.
A large multi-site cohort found delirium in 16% of older ED patients, including many discharged home, and linked it to higher admission and 30-day readmission, underscoring the need for standardized screening and supportive care.
A Japanese multicenter registry study suggests ECPR may improve 1-month survival and neurologic outcomes in selected children with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, although estimates were imprecise and residual confounding remains a major li
In selected children with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, extracorporeal CPR was associated with higher one-month survival and better neurologic outcomes than continued conventional CPR, though the study was observational and estimates were
A clinical care guideline improved emergency use of nebulized tranexamic acid for post-tonsillectomy bleeding and was associated with fewer returns to the operating room.
A quality-improvement clinical care guideline for nebulized tranexamic acid in post-tonsillectomy hemorrhage achieved high protocol adherence and was associated with a marked reduction in operative intervention.
A clinical care guideline for nebulized tranexamic acid in post-tonsillectomy hemorrhage was rapidly adopted in the Emergency Department and was associated with fewer returns to the operating room.
A structured emergency department guideline for nebulized tranexamic acid in post-tonsillectomy hemorrhage achieved rapid protocol uptake and was associated with a marked reduction in operative hemorrhage control.
A hospital clinical care guideline enabled rapid uptake of nebulized tranexamic acid for eligible post-tonsillectomy hemorrhage and was associated with a marked reduction in operative control of bleeding.
A quality-improvement guideline standardizing nebulized tranexamic acid for post-tonsillectomy hemorrhage achieved high protocol adherence and was associated with a marked reduction in operative hemorrhage control.
In a randomized controlled trial, the STIckER smartphone-based decision aid increased gonorrhea/chlamydia and pharyngeal STI testing in emergency department patients aged 14 to 24 years, while improving decisional clarity, satisfaction, and
A multicomponent emergency department workflow using screening, electronic prompts, and discharge decision support significantly increased naltrexone prescribing for patients with alcohol-related diagnoses.
Intravenous magnesium sulfate added to paracetamol increased early headache-treatment success in the emergency department, but the pain relief was modest and below usual clinical importance thresholds. It also reduced rescue analgesia needs
A large U.S. study found major geographic and socioeconomic differences in how critically injured patients are transported to verified trauma centers, with outcomes varying by region, rurality, and neighborhood deprivation.
A multicenter emergency department study found that CPES performed similarly to sPESI and ESC for short-term PE outcomes, but it better predicted the need for advanced intervention.
The DISTAL trial found no 12-month disability or survival benefit from adding endovascular treatment to best medical therapy in mild-to-moderate medium or distal vessel occlusion stroke.
In the IAT-TOP randomized trial, intra-arterial alteplase after successful EVT for acute basilar artery occlusion did not improve 90-day functional independence, while symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage and mortality were similar between g
In suspected myocardial infarction, hs-cTnT-gen6 showed diagnostic accuracy comparable to gen5, produced fewer myocardial injury classifications, and supported highly sensitive ESC 0/1-hour and 0/2-hour rule-out and rule-in pathways using a
In EXECT-CPR, transesophageal echocardiography-guided adjustment of compression site during emergency department CPR did not significantly improve ROSC or survival, despite signals of improved hemodynamics and no excess safety concerns.
