[Clinical features of COVID-19 infection among patients consulting at an emergency service].

Background: COVID-19 is a serious public health problem worldwide.

Aim: To describe the clinical features of COVID-19 infection in adult patients consulting at an Emergency Service.

Material And Methods: Descriptive prospective study of adult patients with suspected COVID-19 consulting between April 1 and July 31, 2020, at the Emergency Service of a clinical hospital.

[Clinical features and predictors of severity in 1022 adults with COVID-19].

Background: In December 2019, coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) emerged in Wuhan city and spread rapidly throughout China and the world.

Aim: To describe the clinical features, risk factors, and predictors of hospitalization in adult patients treated for acute respiratory infections associated with coronavirus SARS-CoV-2.

Material And Methods: Descriptive prospective study of ambulatory and hospitalized adult patients with confirmed COVID-19 attended between April 1 and May 31, 2020.

Impact of perceived inappropiate cardiopulmonary resuscitation on emergency clinicians' intention to leave the job: Results from a cross-sectional survey in 288 centres across 24 countries.

Introduction: Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in patients with a poor prognosis increases the risk of perception of inappropriate care leading to moral distress in clinicians. We evaluated whether perception of inappropriate CPR is associated with intention to leave the job among emergency clinicians.

Methods: A cross-sectional multi-centre survey was conducted in 24 countries.

Effectiveness of medical expulsive therapy with the ɲ-adrenergic blocker tamsulosin for distal ureterolithiasis in adults attended in an emergency department in Chile.

Objectives: To assess the effectiveness of medical expulsive therapy with tamsulosin.

Material And Methods: Randomized double-blind controlled trial in an emergency department. We enrolled adults with uncomplicated distal ureterolithiasis and no other complaint.

Perception of inappropriate cardiopulmonary resuscitation by clinicians working in emergency departments and ambulance services: The REAPPROPRIATE international, multi-centre, cross sectional survey.

Introduction: Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is often started irrespective of comorbidity or cause of arrest. We aimed to determine the prevalence of perception of inappropriate CPR of the last cardiac arrest encountered by clinicians working in emergency departments and out-of-hospital, factors associated with perception, and its relation to patient outcome.

Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted in 288 centres in 24 countries.
