Investigating the use of physical restraint of children in emergency departments: A Scandinavian survey.

Aim: The aim of the study is to describe the current frequency of physical restraint and the use of analgesics and sedatives for treating pediatric pain in emergency departments (EDs) in Scandinavia.

Methods: We performed a nation-wide electronic survey asking nurses in the emergency departments in Denmark, Norway, and Sweden about their experience treating children in pain.

Results: Responses from 103 Danish, Norwegian and Swedish nurses were included (79% response rate).

Association between prehospital physician involvement and survival after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest: A Danish nationwide observational study.

Aim: Sudden out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is an important public health problem. While several interventions are known to improve survival, the impact of physician-delivered advanced cardiac life support for OHCA is unclear. We aimed to assess the association between prehospital physician involvement and 30-day survival.
