Journal ArticleDOI

Noninvasive Ventilation in Acute Cardiogenic Pulmonary Edema

TL;DR: In patients with acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema, noninvasive ventilation induces a more rapid improvement in respiratory distress and metabolic disturbance than does standard oxygen therapy but has no effect on short-term mortality.
Journal ArticleDOI

The health care burden of acute chest pain

TL;DR: The clinical epidemiology of acute chest pain, the incidence of emergency department presentation and hospital admission, the proportion with ECG evidence of acute coronary syndrome (ACS), clinically diagnosed ACS, non-ACS, or undifferentiated chestPain, and variations in these parameters by hour of day and day of week are described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Systematic review and meta-analysis of the diagnostic accuracy of ultrasonography for deep vein thrombosis

TL;DR: Combined colour-doppler US techniques have optimal sensitivity, while compression US has optimal specificity for DVT, however, all estimates are subject to substantial unexplained heterogeneity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Randomised controlled trial and economic evaluation of a chest pain observation unit compared with routine care

TL;DR: Care in a chest pain observation unit seems to be more effective and more cost effective than routine care for patients with acute, undifferentiated chest pain.
Journal ArticleDOI

The relationship between distance to hospital and patient mortality in emergencies: an observational study.

TL;DR: The data suggest that a 10-km increase in straight-line distance is associated with around a 1% absolute increase in mortality, and patients with respiratory emergencies showed the greatest association between distance and mortality.
