TL;DR: It is concluded that lung perfusion SPECT is readily performed and reproducible and a negative study eliminates the need for a combined V/Q study and most of the ‘non-diagnostic’V/Q probabilities can be solved with a perfusion image obtained by using tomography.
Journal ArticleDOI
Emergency Department Visits Due to Alcohol Intoxication: Characteristics of Patients and Impact on the Emergency Room
TL;DR: Close surveillance of trends in alcohol abuse is warranted, and the ED should consider implementing a questionnaire method of screening for alcohol abuse, as alcohol intoxication leads to a financial burden on the community.
CLINICAL ASPECTS Emergency Department Visits Due to Alcohol Intoxication: Characteristics of Patients and Impact on the Emergency Room
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the epidemiology, management and cost of emergency department (ED) visits due to alcohol intoxication in patients older than 16 years, who presented to the ED of a large university hospital in Belgium.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of temperature exposure on stability of drugs in a real-world out-of-hospital setting.

TL;DR: When stored at room temperature or in the emergency physician transport vehicle, lorazepam became unstable within weeks, whereas succinylcholine chloride and cisatracurium besylate became unstableWithin months.
Journal ArticleDOI
Admission hyperglycaemia is associated with higher mortality in patients with hip fracture.
TL;DR: This is the first report of hyperglycaemia-associated mortality in less severely traumatised patients, who generally are not admitted to an ICU, and it might serve as a prognostic indicator in hip-fracture patients.
