Pain-related somatosensory evoked potentials and functional brain magnetic resonance in the evaluation of neurologic recovery after cardiac arrest: a case study of three patients.

Scandinavian journal of trauma, resuscitation and emergency medicine

Zanatta P, Messerotti Benvenuti S, Baldanzi F, Bendini M, Saccavini M, Tamari W, Palomba D, Bosco E.
PMID: 22463985
Scand J Trauma Resusc Emerg Med. 2012 Mar 31;20:22. doi: 10.1186/1757-7241-20-22.

This case series investigates whether painful electrical stimulation increases the early prognostic value of both somatosensory-evoked potentials and functional magnetic resonance imaging in comatose patients after cardiac arrest. Three single cases with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy were considered. A neurophysiological evaluation...

Evaluation of performance of two different chest tubes with either a sharp or a blunt tip for thoracostomy in 100 human cadavers.

Scandinavian journal of trauma, resuscitation and emergency medicine

Ortner CM, Ruetzler K, Schaumann N, Lorenz V, Schellongowski P, Schuster E, Salem RM, Frass M.

Scand J Trauma Resusc Emerg Med. 2012 Feb 02;20:10. doi: 10.1186/1757-7241-20-10.

BACKGROUND: Emergent placement of a chest tube is a potentially life-saving procedure, but rate of misplacement and organ injury is up to 30%. In principle, chest tube insertion can be performed by using Trocar or Non-trocar techniques. If using...

Digital video recording in trauma surgery using commercially available equipment.

Scandinavian journal of trauma, resuscitation and emergency medicine

Matsumoto S, Sekine K, Yamazaki M, Funabiki T, Orita T, Shimizu M, Kitano M.
PMID: 23578301
Scand J Trauma Resusc Emerg Med. 2013 Apr 11;21:27. doi: 10.1186/1757-7241-21-27.

INTRODUCTION: Although videos of surgical procedures are useful as an educational tool, the recording of trauma surgeries in emergency situations is difficult. We describe an inexpensive and practical shooting method using a commercially available head-mounted video camera.METHODS: We used...

BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to assess nurses' self-reported confidence in their professional skills before and after an extensive Emergency Department (ED) reform in Kanta-Häme Central Hospital.METHODS: Emergency nurses participated in transitional training commencing two years before...

Hospital out-lying through lack of beds and its impact on care and patient outcome.

Scandinavian journal of trauma, resuscitation and emergency medicine

Stowell A, Claret PG, Sebbane M, Bobbia X, Boyard C, Genre Grandpierre R, Moreau A, de La Coussaye JE.
PMID: 23497699
Scand J Trauma Resusc Emerg Med. 2013 Mar 14;21:17. doi: 10.1186/1757-7241-21-17.

BACKGROUND: When medical wards become saturated, the common practice is to resort to outlying patients in another ward until a bed becomes free.OBJECTIVES: Compare the quality of care provided for inpatients who are outlying (O) in inappropriate wards because...

The measurement of tissue interface pressures and changes in jugular venous parameters associated with cervical immobilisation devices: a systematic review.

Scandinavian journal of trauma, resuscitation and emergency medicine

Sparke A, Voss S, Benger J.
PMID: 24299024
Scand J Trauma Resusc Emerg Med. 2013 Dec 03;21:81. doi: 10.1186/1757-7241-21-81.

Cervical immobilisation is commonly applied following trauma, particularly blunt head injury, but current methods of immobilisation are associated with significant complications. Semi-rigid disposable cervical collars are known to cause pressure ulcers, and impede effective airway management. These collars may...

Prehospital administered fascia iliaca compartment block by emergency medical service nurses, a feasibility study.

Scandinavian journal of trauma, resuscitation and emergency medicine

Dochez E, van Geffen GJ, Bruhn J, Hoogerwerf N, van de Pas H, Scheffer G.
PMID: 24957807
Scand J Trauma Resusc Emerg Med. 2014 Jun 23;22:38. doi: 10.1186/1757-7241-22-38.

INTRODUCTION: Patients with a proximal femur fracture are often difficult to evacuate from the accident scene. Prehospital pain management for this vulnerable group of patients may be challenging. Multiple co-morbidities, polypharmacy and increased age may limit the choice of...

Increasing bystander CPR: potential of a one question telecommunicator identification algorithm.

Scandinavian journal of trauma, resuscitation and emergency medicine

Orpet R, Riesenberg R, Shin J, Subido C, Markul E, Rea T.
PMID: 25963635
Scand J Trauma Resusc Emerg Med. 2015 May 13;23:39. doi: 10.1186/s13049-015-0115-1.

OBJECTIVES: Telecommunicators use a two-question algorithm to identify cardiac arrest: Is the individual conscious? Is the individual breathing normally? Although this approach increases arrest identification and consequently bystander CPR, the strategy does not identify all arrests and requires time...

Situational awareness and information flow in prehospital emergency medical care from the perspective of paramedic field supervisors: a scenario-based study.

Scandinavian journal of trauma, resuscitation and emergency medicine

Norri-Sederholm T, Paakkonen H, Kurola J, Saranto K.
PMID: 25591664
Scand J Trauma Resusc Emerg Med. 2015 Jan 16;23:4. doi: 10.1186/s13049-014-0083-x.

BACKGROUND: In prehospital emergency medical services, one of the key factors in the successful delivery of appropriate care is the efficient management and supervision of the area's emergency medical services units. Paramedic field supervisors have an important role in...

Incidence of depression, anxiety and stress following traumatic injury: a longitudinal study.

Scandinavian journal of trauma, resuscitation and emergency medicine

Wiseman TA, Curtis K, Lam M, Foster K.
PMID: 25882818

BACKGROUND: Traumatic injury and mental health disorders are co-associated. Early identification of depression, anxiety and stress following injury, and subsequent preventive intervention, may reduce the long-term symptoms and negative impacts associated with depression and anxiety. The purpose of the...

Is the supine position associated with loss of airway patency in unconscious trauma patients? A systematic review and meta-analysis.
