Deploying artificial intelligence in the detection of adult appendicular and pelvic fractures in the Singapore emergency department after hours: efficacy, cost savings and non-monetary benefits.

Introduction: Radiology plays an integral role in fracture detection in the emergency department (ED). After hours, when there are fewer reporting radiologists, most radiographs are interpreted by ED physicians. A minority of these interpretations may miss diagnoses, which later require the callback of patients for further management.

Improved outcomes for index cholecystectomy for acute cholecystitis following a dedicated emergency surgery and trauma service (ESAT).

Introduction: Early laparoscopic cholecystectomy (ELC) has shown to reduce length of stay and improve patients' satisfaction as compared to delayed laparoscopic cholecystectomy (DLC). However, logistics and manpower limitations often preclude ELC.

Methods: A retrospective study was conducted in a single institute to compare outcomes of AC before (August 2013-2014) and after (August 2017-2018) establishment of emergency surgery and trauma (ESAT).
