Superior Hypogastric Nerve Blockade for Uterine Artery Embolization: A Systematic Review.

Superior hypogastric nerve block (SHNB) has potential to reduce pain following uterine artery embolization (UAE). However, existing studies are limited by design, sample size, or conflicting results. A systematic review of the literature was performed.

Dispatcher Stroke Recognition Using a Stroke Screening Tool: A Systematic Review.

Background: Emergency dispatchers represent the first point of contact for patients activating an acute stroke response. Accurate dispatcher stroke recognition is associated with faster emergency medical services response time; however, stroke is often unrecognized during initial emergency calls. Stroke screening tools such as the Cincinnati Prehospital Stroke Scale have been shown to improve on-scene stroke recognition and thus have been proposed as a means to improve dispatcher accuracy.
