Article Synopsis
- Pulmonology is often consulted in emergency departments for respiratory issues and was the focus of a study involving 32 centers in Turkiye to analyze consultation patterns.
- The study examined data from 1712 patients, revealing that many presented with dyspnea and had pre-existing conditions, with common diagnoses being chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and pneumonia.
- The findings suggest that enhancing outpatient pulmonology services could reduce emergency department visits by addressing cases earlier in outpatient settings.

Tractor accidents and related injuries are significant problems particularly in rural areas. However, major trauma classification systems do not include tractor accidents as a criterion for trauma team activation or transportation of the patients to a trauma center.
