Background: Disorders of the coagulation pathway are triggered in patients with severe burn and inhalation injuries in the early stages. There are multiple early coagulation indices identified to correlate with adverse outcomes.
Method: A retrospective analysis of patients with severe burn and inhalation injuries from 12 centers in mainland China was performed to identify early changed coagulation indices with predictive value associated with four major 28-day adverse outcomes (death, anticoagulation, mechanical ventilation, continuous renal replacement therapy) by logistic regression.

Aim: To assess the clinical outcomes of patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest attended by prehospital critical care teams compared to non-critical care teams.
Methods: This review was prospectively registered with PROSPERO and the eligibility criteria followed a PICOST framework for ILCOR systematic reviews. Prehospital critical care was defined as any provider with enhanced clinical competencies beyond standard advanced life support algorithms and dedicated dispatch to critically ill patients.

Cervical spine injuries are one of the most common injuries of the spine that are encountered in the emergency department (ED). More than half of all spinal injuries presenting to the ED involve the cervical spine, with nearly half of them resulting from road traffic accidents. The majority of spinal cord injuries are found to occur in males of younger age groups, with almost half of them resulting in incomplete spinal cord injuries.

Aim: This study aimed to investigate the associations between hypothermia and mortality or poor neurological outcome in a nationwide cohort of drowning patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA).
Methods: This nationwide, registry-based cohort study reported in-hospital data on drowning patients with OHCA following the Utstein Style For Drowning. Drowning patients with OHCA were identified in the Danish Cardiac Arrest Registry from 2016 to 2021.

Background: Strokes are common neurological emergencies that require rapid diagnosis to minimize long-term damage. Prehospital detection and triage play a critical role in patient outcomes.
Objective: How effective are different prehospital diagnostic tools for stroke detection, and which triage strategies optimize patient care?
Methods: The article compares prehospital diagnostic tools for stroke detection and evaluates different transport strategies.
