Objective: Rapid sequence intubation (RSI) involves the administration of induction agents and neuromuscular blockers before endotracheal intubation (ETI). However, RSI seems to be underutilized outside emergency departments (ED). We compared RSI adoption rates and ETI outcomes outside and within EDs and investigated whether RSI adoption affected ETI outcomes outside EDs.

Introduction: EUS-guided fine-needle organoid creation (EUS-FNO) from pancreatic cancer (PC) has been increasingly important for precision medicine. The cost for pancreatic organoid creation is substantial and close to 2000 USD/specimen in our institution, and the specimen has to be processed immediately after tissue acquisition so the more passes and specimens, the higher cost of organoid creation will incur. To date, no prospective comparison trial has answered how many needle passes of EUS-FNO needed for a successful organoid creation.

Study Objective: This study analyzes emergency medicine airway management trends and outcomes among community emergency departments.

Methods: A multicenter, retrospective chart review was conducted on 11,475 intubations from 15 different community emergency departments between January 1, 2015, and December 31, 2022. Data collected included patient's age, sex, rapid sequence intubation medications, use of cricoid pressure, method of intubation, number of attempts, admission diagnosis, and all-cause mortality rates.

Objectives: Prehospital endotracheal intubation (ETI) is a lifesaving procedure with known complications. To reduce ETI-associated morbidity and mortality, organizations prioritize first-pass success (FPS). However, there are few data evaluating the association of FPS with clinician licensure.

Introduction: The venous outflow profile (VOP) is a crucial yet often overlooked aspect affecting stroke outcomes. It plays a major role in the physiopathology of acute cerebral ischemia, as it accounts for both the upstream arterial collaterals and cerebral microperfusion. This enables it to circumvent the limitations of various arterial collateral evaluation systems, which often fail to consider impaired autoregulation and its impact on cerebral blood flow at the microcirculatory levels.
