Title A name given to the resource Jurnal Internasional Afrika vol. 13 issue 2 2023 African Journal of Emergency Medicine Comparative study of National Emergency X-Radiography Utilization Study (NEXUS) chest algorithm and extended focused assessment with sonography for trauma (E-FAST) in the early detection of blunt chest injuries in polytrauma patients Subject The topic of the resource Pneumothorax Hemothorax E-FAST NEXUS Blunt chest trauma Description An account of the resource Introduction: Chest imaging plays a prominent role in the assessment of patients with blunt trauma. Selection of the right approach at the right time is fundamental in the management of patients with blunt chest trauma . [1] A reliable, economic, bedside, and rapidly accomplished screening test can be pivotal. [2] Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the accuracy of extended- focused assessment with sonography for trauma (E-FAST) to that of the National Emergency X-Radiography Utilisation Study (NEXUS) chest algorithm in detecting blunt chest injuries. Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study included 50 polytrauma patients with blunt chest trauma from the emergency centre of Suez Canal University Hospital. E-FAST and computed tomography (CT) were conducted, followed by reporting of NEXUS criteria for all patients. Blinding of the E-FAST performer and CT reporter were confirmed. The results of both the NEXUS algorithm and E-FAST were compared with CT chest results. Results: The NEXUS algorithm had 100% sensitivity and 15.3% specificity, and E-FAST had 70% sensitivity and 96.7% specificity, in the detection of pneumothorax. In the detection of hemothorax, the sensitivity and specificity of the NEXUS algorithm were 90% and 7.5%, respectively, whereas E-FAST had a lower sensitivity of 80% and a higher specificity of 97.5%. Conclusion: E-FAST is highly specific for the detection of hemothorax, pneumothorax, and chest injuries compared with the NEXUS chest algorithm, which demonstrated the lowest specificity. However, the NEXUS chest algorithm showed a higher sensitivity than E-FAST and hence can be used effectively to rule out thoracic injury.

Title A name given to the resource Jurnal Internasional Afrika vol. 13 issue 2 2023 African Journal of Emergency Medicine An evaluation of basic life support training among medical students in Southwest Nigeria: A web-based study Subject The topic of the resource Lifesaving skills Medical proficiency Emergency medicine BLS training Medical students Description An account of the resource Background: Basic Life Support (BLS) is considered a lifesaving measure and sound knowledge is expected among health professionals. Studies conducted among medical doctors and students in many developing countries show deficiencies in knowledge and practice of essential BLS skills. This study assessed the awareness, knowledge, perception, practice, accessibility and barriers to BLS training amongst medical students in South-Western Nigeria, exposing skill gaps and training challenges to inform appropriate solutions. Methods: This was a cross-sectional descriptive e-survey involving 2 nd –6 th year medical students enrolled in 12 regional medical schools. Overall, 553 responses were received over a 3-month period from November 2020 to January 2021 and analyzed using IBM-SPSS 26. Results: Of the 553 respondents, 79.2% were aware of BLS however only 160 (29%) respondents had good knowledge of BLS principles. Increasing age, higher level of study, prior BLS training and being enrolled in College of Medicine, University of Lagos (CMUL) were significantly associated with a higher knowledge score ( p < 0.05). Majority (99.5%) considered BLS training necessary however, only 51.3% had prior training. Increased level of study correlated with prior BLS training ( p < 0.05) alongside higher BLS uptake by respondents from CMUL (26.7%) and College of Medicine, University of Ibadan (20.9%) compared to respondents from other schools ( p < 0.05). Only 35.4% had ever done Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation. Most respondents reported no confidence in performing BLS (67.1%) or in using an Automated External Defibrillator (85.7%). Unavailability of training opportunities in state (35%), town (42%) and cost (27%) were major barriers to BLS training identified. Conclusion: Despite a high level of awareness of BLS training, knowledge of BLS principles and its practice is poor among Nigerian medical students, reflecting a need to integrate stand-alone/structured BLS trainings into the medical curriculum to increase participation and accessibility by medical students Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Simileoluwa O.

Title A name given to the resource Jurnal Internasional Afrika vol. 13 issue 2 2023 African Journal of Emergency Medicine Acute organophosphorus toxicity in a regional hospital in Johannesburg, South Africa: A retrospective chart review Subject The topic of the resource Organophosphorus toxicity Atropinisation dose Atropine toxicity Emergency department Cholinesterase levels Description An account of the resource Introduction: Intentional and accidental organophosphorus exposures pose a significant healthcare-related bur- den on South African communities. This study will review the demographics, characteristics and clinical course of patients presenting with features of acute organophosphorus toxicity to a regional Emergency Centre in Jo- hannesburg, South Africa. Methods: This was a retrospective chart review of all patients treated for possible acute organophosphorus toxicity from January 2020 to August 2021. Results: A total of 205 patients were identified of which 134 patients were included in the study. The median age was 26 years with a male predominance (male = 56%, female = 44%). 109 patients (81.3%) survived, 18 pa- tients (13.4%) demised and the outcome of 7 patients (5.2%) was unknown. The median hospital length of stay was 8 days, (IQR = 5-13 days), and the longest hospital stay was 37 days in ICU. Atropinisation dose was signif- icantly higher for intubated patients (median = 140.0mg; IQR = 90mg-219.5mg) compared to patients who were not intubated (median = 60mg; IQR = 20.5mg-120mg, p < 0.05). The length of stay was significantly higher for intubated patients (median = 11 days; IQR = 7-15 days) compared to patients who were not intubated (median = 5 days; IQR = 3-8 days, p < 0.00). There was a moderate positive correlation between atropinisation dose and length of stay (Correlation coefficient = 0.37, p < 0.00). There was a moderate negative correlation between atropinisa- tion dose and cholinesterase level (Correlation coefficient = - 0.39, p < 0.00). Of those reported to have adverse effects 78.6%, were related to atropine toxicity. Conclusion: Our study shows a high mortality rate secondary to organophosphorus toxicity. Significant exposures and thus higher doses of atropine were associated with increased length of stay and need for intubation. We found a high incidence of atropine-related adverse effects. More studies are needed to further establish the balance between the therapeutic and adverse effects of high-dose atropine as a treatment modality for organophosphorus toxicity.
