First responders’ experiences with major earthquakes in Türkiye: a qualitative study of innovation needs and challenges
The response phase is a phase of disaster management that begins when a disaster occurs. The experience of the First Responders who responded in the first days to the 2023 earthquake in Turkey, which killed more than fifty thousand people, is…
Does heart rate variability predict and improve performance in pediatric CPR?—a simulation study
Out-of-hospital pediatric resuscitation is a severe medical condition with a low survival rate. Providing pediatric resuscitation is a significant stressor for medical teams that may impair performance. The vagal nerve is a crucial moderator of…
Factors associated with delayed order-to-administration time in the emergency department: a retrospective analysis
Timely medication administration in the emergency department (ED) is critical for improving patient outcomes. This study aimed to identify predictors of delayed order-to-administration (OTA) time, defined as exceeding 30 min for stat medications.
AI-assisted decision-making in mild traumatic brain injury
This study evaluates the potential use of ChatGPT in aiding clinical decision-making for patients with mild traumatic brain injury (TBI) by assessing the quality of responses it generates for clinical care.
Improving prediction accuracy of hospital arrival vital signs using a multi-output machine learning model: a retrospective study of JSAS-registry data
The study included 10,478 patients (median age 70 years; 69% male). The model achieved mean absolute errors of 7.1 bpm for heart rate, 15.7 mmHg for systolic blood pressure, 10.8 mmHg for diastolic blood pressure, 2.9 breaths/min for respiratory…
Construction and evaluation of a triage assessment model for patients with acute non-traumatic chest pain: mixed retrospective and prospective observational study
Acute non-traumatic chest pain is one of the common complaints in the emergency department and is closely associated with fatal disease. Triage assessment urgently requires the use of simple, rapid tools to screen patients with chest pain for…
Effectiveness of extended reality technologies in cardiopulmonary resuscitation training: a bayesian network meta-analysis
High-quality cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is critical to cardiac arrest patients. Extended Reality (XR) technologies, including Augmented Reality (AR), Virtual Reality (VR), and Mixed Reality (MR), provide immersive and interactive training,…
Comparison of Standardized Mortality Ratios in seven Dutch EDs based on presenting complaints
Comparison of emergency departments (EDs) becomes more important, but differences are difficult to interpret because of the heterogeneity of the ED population regarding reason for ED presentation. The aim of this study was two-fold: First to compare…
Performance of machine learning models in predicting difficult laryngoscopy in the emergency department: a single-centre retrospective study comparing with conventional regression method
Emergency endotracheal intubation is a critical skill for managing airway emergencies in the emergency department (ED). Accurate prediction of difficult laryngoscopy is essential for improving first-attempt success, minimizing complications,…
Navigating emotions, communication, and pain during prehospital labour: a mixed-methods survey with emergency ambulance services
Despite their crucial role in prehospital obstetric emergencies, there is little research exploring emergency medical service (EMS) personnel’s perspectives and attitudes on out-of-hospital births, including balancing the numerous needs of the…
