Background: Despite research linking chemical and physical restraints to negative outcomes including unplanned intubations and psychological distress, there is little guidance for their use in the care of trauma patients. We used institutional data to describe recent trends in chemical and physical restraint in the emergency department evaluation and treatment of trauma patients and to identify characteristics associated with their use.
Methods: This study includes adult trauma activations at a United States urban level I trauma center from January 2016 to July 2022.
Objective: To evaluate the levels of inflammatory cytokines and symptom survey scores in patients diagnosed with Menière's disease or vestibular migraine from a single center by a single neurotologist compared to control subjects with no history of dizziness or migraine.
Study Design: Cross-sectional pilot study.
Setting: Single-center tertiary referral center in Charleston, SC.
Aim: The aim of this study was to explore experiences of internationally educated nurses' first 2 years working and living in England in an age of contemporary migration.
Design: Exploratory mixed method design.
Methods: An online survey collected responses from August 2022 to October 2022.
Article Synopsis
- Hereditary angioedema (HAE) is a rare condition that causes swelling and can lead to serious issues like breathing problems and blood clots.
- A 34-year-old woman who had HAE was pregnant and had pain and swelling in her arm after getting a special IV line for treatment, which was found to have caused a blood clot.
- The doctors successfully treated her by removing the IV line and using a different method for her medication, showing that it's safer to use regular IVs instead of special ones for pregnant women with HAE.
