An assessment of long-term complications following prehospital intraosseous access: A nationwide study.

Background: The guidelines for Advanced Life Support issued by the European Resuscitation Council recommend considering drug delivery through intraosseous access if intravenous access to the vascular bed is not feasible or unsuccessful. Emergency prehospital intraosseous cannulation may theoretically lead to an increased risk of long-term complications such as osteomyelitis, osteonecrosis, or compartment syndrome. Such complications have previously been reported in case reports or small sample case series.

Thromboelastography or rotational thromboelastometry guided algorithms in bleeding patients: An updated systematic review with meta-analysis and trial sequential analysis.

Background: Bleeding patients face significant morbidity and mortality due to impaired haemostasis. Haemostatic resuscitation has evolved, yet the optimal approach remains unclear. The primary objective was to assess the benefits and risks of transfusion guided by TEG/ROTEM versus standard of care in bleeding patients in an updated review.

Head injuries related to bicycle collisions and helmet use - an observational study.

Objectives: In Denmark, the use of bicycles is widespread, and head injuries are often seen in cyclists involved in collisions. Despite the well-known effects of using a helmet to reduce head injuries, using helmets is not mandatory in Denmark. The primary objective of this study was to provide data regarding injury outcomes and helmet usage.

Treat and release: an observational study of non-conveyed high-acuity dispatches in a Danish emergency medical system.

Non-conveyance refers to the practice of treating a patient on-site without transporting them to a medical facility. It may decrease unnecessary hospital transfers and improve patient satisfaction. Nonetheless, ensuring patient safety remains paramount.
