Introduction: Despite the demonstrated efficacy of cardiovascular (CV) preventive measures, data from international literature indicate that control of CV risk factors (RF) remains insufficient in very high-risk patients.

Aim: This study aimed to assess prevalence of achievement of recommended therapeutic targets for the major and modifiable CVRF 12 months after myocardial infarction (MI).

Methods: From 1st January to 30th April 2023, we collected consecutive patients with type 1 MI who had completed 12 months follow-up.

[Infective endocarditis : In-hospital mortality predictive factors].

Introduction: Infective endocarditis (IE) remains a serious disease with significant morbidity and mortality despite therapeutic advancements. The aim of our study was to determine the predictive factors of in-hospital mortality.

Patients And Methods: A prospective comparative study over a period of 54 months was conducted, including all patients admitted for definite infective endocarditis, diagnosed according to the modified Duke criteria published in 2015 by the European Society of Cardiology.

Evaluation of stress induced by high-fidelity simulation among anesthesiology and emergency residents: impact of oral debriefing versus video assisted.

Aim: To describe the level of stress in emergency medicine and anesthesia residents during high fidelity simulation sessions and to evaluate the effect of video-assisted debriefing versus no-video assisted debriefing on stress level.

Methods: Prospective randomized study.

Inclusion: emergency medicine and anesthesia residents consenting.

Delayed presentation of spinal cord injury without radiographic abnormality (SCIWORA): a case report.

Spinal Cord Injury without Radiographic Abnormality (SCIWORA) is an unprecedented event to occur in adults but may lead to serious complications including permanent neurological impairments and death. In this article, we report a case of a 60-year-old male presenting to the emergency for a head and neck trauma after a motorbike accident, who reported only a neck ache and a normal primary neurological exam. The evolution was marked by the occurrence of paraplegia with a diminished sphincter tone and hypoesthesia beneath the T12 dermatome level after six hours, confirmed by the Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI).

Efficacy and safety of two protocols of intravenous insulin therapy in the management of diabetic ketoacidosis.

Introduction: The correction of insulin deficiency in ketoacidosis DKA is recommended by intravenous (IV) route. Despite abundant literature, the place of the initial bolus of insulin has remained controversial.

Aims: This study was designed to compare the safety and the efficacy of two protocols of intravenous (IV) insulin therapy in the management of DKA admitted in the emergency department.

Drug related adverse events due to cardiotropic agents : Epidemiology and prognosis in the emergency department.

Introduction: The severity of cardiotropic agents overuse is related to the risk of cardiac and hemodynamic life-threatening situations. Toxicity is attributed to their narrow therapeutic spectrum and pharmacodynamic properties. The clinical presentation, however, remains polymorphic and represents a challenge for the emergency physician to relate accountability to the exact agent.
