Determinants of Medical Care-Seeking Behavior for Musculoskeletal Conditions During US Marine Corps Training: A Thematic Analysis.

Context: Musculoskeletal injuries (MSK-I) are a well-documented problem in military populations and a leading contributor to disability across military services. However, only a portion of Service members who sustain an MSK-I report it to medical providers. Although several studies have identified barriers to seeking medical care in military populations, less is known about what motivates Service members to seek care for MSK-I.

Barriers and facilitators to implementation of musculoskeletal injury mitigation programmes for military service members around the world: a scoping review.

Introduction: Musculoskeletal injury (MSK-I) mitigation and prevention programmes (MSK-IMPPs) have been developed and implemented across militaries worldwide. Although programme efficacy is often reported, development and implementation details are often overlooked, limiting their scalability, sustainability and effectiveness. This scoping review aimed to identify the following in military populations: (1) barriers and facilitators to implementing and scaling MSK-IMPPs; (2) gaps in MSK-IMPP research and (3) future research priorities.

Drastic Decontamination in a Patient With Anaphylaxis.

Background: Allergic reactions are common symptoms in the emergency department (ED), with anaphylaxis comprising 1-3% of ED visits. Anaphylaxis is a clinical diagnosis. Treatment of anaphylaxis starts with airway, oxygenation, and decontamination, followed by medication administration.
