Title A name given to the resource The association between anion gap and prognosis in patients myocardial infarction with congestive heart failure: a retrospective analysis of the MIMIC-IV database Subject The topic of the resource Anion gap, Heart failure post myocardial infarction, Prognosis Description An account of the resource Abstract Background Elevated serum anion gap at hospital admission is often linked to a poor prognosis in critically ill patients, but there is insufficient data on this correlation in patients with acute myocardial infarction accompanied by heart failure. In this study, we aimed to determine the relationship between serum admission AG and all-cause mortality in patients with acute myocardial infarction accompanied by heart failure. Methods We conducted a retrospective analysis of data within the MIMIC-IV database. Serum AG was collected at ICU admission, and all-cause mortality after discharge was analyzed. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression models and Kaplan-Meier survival curve analyses were used to assess the relationship between serum AG and myocardial infarction accompanied by heart failure as well as all-cause mortality. Results A total of 943 patients with acute myocardial infarction complicated by heart failure were included in the study. The all-cause mortality rate after discharge was 24.7% and 18.9%. Multivariable analysis, adjusted for potential confounders, indicated that compared to low serum AG levels (<12 mmol/L), high serum AG levels (>17 mmol/L) were associated with an increased risk of all-cause mortality. Similarly, Kaplan-Meier survival curves also indicated that patients with higher serum AG levels had lower survival rates. Stratified analysis further showed that the association between higher serum AG levels and in-hospital all-cause mortality was observed across different subgroups based on stratification variables. Conclusions In patients with acute myocardial infarction complicated by heart failure, elevated serum AG levels at ICU admission are associated with an increased risk of all-cause mortality.

Title A name given to the resource Primary diagnosis of atrioventricular pseudo‐block in a neonate with definitive diagnosis of long QT syndrome: diagnostic considerations and therapeutic approaches Subject The topic of the resource Atrioventricular block, Arrhythmias, Case report, Long QT syndrome, Sudden cardiac death Description An account of the resource Abstract Introduction Long QT syndrome (LQTS) is a potentially lethal medical condition that might never be diagnosed and cause sudden cardiac death. It is mainly caused by mutation in electrolyte transporter genes. Due to the sig- nificant difference in the treatment approach of heart block and other rhythm disorders that mimic this condition, it is necessary to discriminate these conditions. The occurrence of pseudo-block in electrocardiography features but without disturbance in the function of the conduction system can mask the definite diagnosis of the real underly- ing disorder, and this issue leads to the selection of an unfavorable treatment protocol and sometimes the sudden death of the patient. Case presentation We described an infant who showed evidence of atrioventricular (AV) block in initial electrocar- diography (ECG) on his first day, but in further evaluations, the final diagnosis of LQTS was raised. The patient recov- ered after performing the treatment protocol, which included Mexiletine and beta-blockers. After the genetic test of the parents and the patient, it was determined that a defective allele of the gene had caused the condition. Conclusion Our report shows the importance of timely differentiation between heart block and LQTS in neonates and choosing the correct treatment approach to faster patient recovery and prevent sudden death. Clinical key message Primary diagnosis of LQTS in neonates might not be a straightforward process due to resem- bling AV pseudo-block and can cause misleading diagnosis and treatment. Long QT syndrome has several nonspecific presentations. They might be asymptomatic until adulthood and be diagnosed after sudden cardiac death. Preventive measures such as timely initiation of medications, ICD or PPM implantation, and continuous observation by caregivers are the mainstay of survival and quality of life improvement.

Title A name given to the resource Characteristics, outcomes, and prognostic factors in patients with penetrating and blunt traumatic diaphragmatic injury: a nationwide retrospective cohort study in Japan Subject The topic of the resource Traumatic diaphragmatic injury (TDI), Penetrating TDI (PTDI), Blunt TDI (BTDI), Japan Trauma Data Bank (JTDB), Associated injury, Severe concomitant injury, Independent predictor of mortality, Epidemiology Description An account of the resource Abstract Background Traumatic diaphragmatic injury (TDI) is well-known worldwide as rare and life-threatening. However, because no nationwide cohort study of penetrating and blunt TDI has been conducted in Japan and other coun- tries where penetrating trauma is relatively uncommon, the clinical characteristics of all TDI are unknown. We aimed to describe the characteristics of TDI patients, compare penetrating TDI with blunt TDI, and identify mortality risk factors in Japan. Methods We retrospectively identified TDI patients between 2004 and 2019 using data from the Japan Trauma Data Bank. We extracted data on patient demographics, type of trauma, cause of trauma, physiological parameters, region of concomitant injury, associated injury, and management. We compared penetrating and blunt TDI for each variable. The primary outcome was mortality. Multivariable logistic regression was performed to identify mortality risk factors. Results Of the 338,744 patients, 1,147 (0.3%) had TDI, of which 771 were eligible for analysis (excluding 308 in cardiac arrest on arrival). Penetrating TDI represented 29.8% and blunt TDI 70.2%, and comparing penetrating and blunt TDI, the most common cause was self-inflicted (48.7%) vs. accident (85.6%), males were 68.7% vs. 66.0% of the patients (P=0.50), and the mortality rate was 8.3% vs. 26.4% (P<0.001). Multivariable analysis found that age (odds ratio [OR] 1.03, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.01–1.04), Injury Severity Score (OR 1.03, 95%CI 1.006–1.06), Revised Trauma Score (OR 0.55, 95%CI 0.45–0.67), severe concomitant abdominal injury (OR 2.45, 95%CI 1.32–4.56), severe concomitant upper extremity injury (OR 3.38, 95%CI 1.24–9.17) were independent predictors of mortality, and computed tomogra- phy (CT) (OR 0.32, 95%CI 0.15–0.69) and diaphragm repair (OR 0.44, 95%CI 0.25–0.78) were protective factors. Conclusions In Japan, we found that penetrating TDI was mainly caused by self-injury and the male–female ratio was the same as for blunt TDI, although blunt TDI was much more frequent. TDI was considered highly lethal, with over 25% of patients in cardiac arrest on arrival. Our unique independent predictors were CT, severe concomitant abdominal injury, and severe concomitant upper extremity injury. These findings may help in the management of TDI in countries with less common penetrating trauma.

Title A name given to the resource Development of an emergency department triage tool to predict admission or discharge for older adults Subject The topic of the resource Hospitalization, Emergency department, Risk score, Older adults Description An account of the resource Abstract Background Older adults present to Emergency Departments (ED) with complex conditions, requiring triage models that support effective disposition decisions. While existing models perform well in the general population, they often fall short for older patients. This study introduces a triage model aimed at improving early risk stratification and disposition planning in this population. Methods We analyzed the National Hospital Ambulatory Medical Care Survey data (2015–2019) for ED patients aged≥60 years, excluding those who died in the ED or left against medical advice. Key predictors were identified using a two-step process combining LASSO and backward stepwise selection. Model performance was evaluated using AUC and calibration plots, while clinical utility was assessed through decision curve analysis. Risk thresholds (<0.1, 0.1–0.5, >0.5) stratified patients into low, moderate, and high-risk groups, optimizing the balance between sensitivity and specificity. Results Of 13,431 patients, 3,180 (23.7%) were admitted. Key predictors for admission included ambulance arrival, chronic conditions, gastrointestinal bleeding, and abnormal vital signs. The model showed strong discrimination (AUC 0.73) and good calibration, validated by 10-fold cross-validation (mean AUC 0.73, SD 0.02). Decision curve analysis highlighted net benefit across clinically relevant thresholds. At thresholds of 0.1 and 0.5, the model identified 18.9% as low-risk (91.2% accuracy) and 7.9% as high-risk (57.7%). Adjusting thresholds to 0.2 and 0.4 expanded low-risk (55.4%, 87.9% accuracy) and high-risk (14.1%, 53.7% accuracy) groups. Conclusions This older adult–focused risk score uses readily available data to enhance early discharge, prioritize admissions for high-risk patients, and enhance ED care delivery. Highlights • Readily available triage data predict hospital admission in older adult ED patients. • Key predictors include chief complaint, ambulance arrival, comorbidities, and vital signs. • The Hospital Admission Model effectively stratifies patients into low- and high-risk groups. • At a 0.2 threshold, 55% of patients were classified as low risk with 88% accuracy. • At a 0.5 threshold, 8% of patients were classified as high risk with 58% accuracy.

Title A name given to the resource Point of care ultrasound in rapid diagnosis of acute cholangitis and emphysematous cholecystitis: a case report Subject The topic of the resource Emphysematous cholecystitis, Champagne sign, Point of care ultrasound, Cholangitis, Gas Description An account of the resource Abstract Background Emphysematous cholecystitis is a rare and rapidly progressive disease that requires prompt diagnosis and intervention. Point of care ultrasound (POCUS) is a useful diagnostic imaging tool in the emergency department that can help expedite diagnosis and management of biliary etiology. Case presentation In our case, we describe an 85 year old female with a history of diabetes mellitus with a presentation consistent with undifferentiated cholecystitis. Point of care ultrasound performed in the emergency department showed a characteristic “champagne sign”, along with other findings including dilated common bile duct and pericholecystic fluid. These findings ultimately led to the diagnosis of emphysematous cholecystitis and acute cholangitis. The use of ultrasound expedited the patient’s cholecystostomy tube placement and subsequent endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, proving to be a life-saving tool in the management of this patient. Conclusion POCUS can be an important tool for the diagnosis of undifferentiated biliary etiology, expediting the management of these patients.

Title A name given to the resource Impact of physician group practice in the operations, quality of care, and service satisfaction in the non-urgent section of an emergency department in a tertiary hospital in the Philippines: a mixed methods study Subject The topic of the resource Emergency department, Group practice, Independent consultancy, Non-urgent, Quality of care, Service satisfaction Description An account of the resource Abstract Background The Emergency Department (ED) is a primary source of healthcare services for patients with non- urgent conditions in the Philippines. The adaptation of physician group practice (GP) in the ED has gained popularity in the country due to its potential advantage to patient management and physicians compared to independent consultancy (IC). This study aimed to determine the impacts of GP in a non-urgent ED setting in terms of operations, quality of care, and service satisfaction compared to IC. Methods Historical data collection focusing on operations, service costs, patient outcomes, and satisfaction was performed between 2021 and 2022 at a tertiary for-profit private hospital in Metro Manila, Philippines. In addition, patient surveys on demographics, perception, ED accessibility, and descriptive satisfaction ratings were also administered in 2023 (n=310). These aspects were compared between patients managed by GP and IC quantitatively using univariate descriptive statistics, Mann-Whitney U tests, and ANCOVA to compare operational metrics, financial data, and patient outcomes. Qualitative data from patient surveys were analyzed using a sequential-explanatory approach. Results Our analysis of the historical data showed high rates of positive outcomes for non-urgent ED patients in both GP and IC. Total (PhP587,812 vs. PhP379,699; p<0.001) and per patient (PhP1,801 vs. PhP554; p<0.001) operational costs were higher for the GPs. However, GPs incurred shorter mean length of stay (165.5 vs. 214.2 min; p<0.001). There appears to be no difference in service satisfaction and overall patient outcomes between patients managed by GP or IC, although patients of GP physicians assessed the level of care of the ED to be higher (5 vs. 4; p-value=0.019). In the quantitative and qualitative ratings, most patients provided positive citations on ED service quality, staff, structure, system, physician competency and compassion.

Title A name given to the resource Artificial intelligence in gynecologic and obstetric emergencies Subject The topic of the resource Artificial intelligence, Gynecology, Obstetrics, Emergency Description An account of the resource Abstract Background Artificial intelligence (AI) uses a process by which machines perform human-like functions such as automated clinical decisions. This may operate efficiently in gynecologic and obstetric emergencies. We aimed to review the role and applications of AI in gynecologic and obstetric emergencies. Methods A literature search was carried out in November 2023 in PubMed, Cochrane Library and Google Scholar using the keywords combination of “artificial intelligence, gynecology and obstetrics”. Relevant articles were selected and read. Reference lists of the selected articles were also searched. Results The literature demonstrated the role of AI to improve healthcare in emergency settings in several aspects such as diagnostic imaging, improving predictions in emergencies, and improving planning and resource allocation for emergency services. AI works objectively, overcoming human biases in decision-making. Creating interconnected data registries for AI will likely enhance its performance. Validation research in emergency settings has shown that AI-prediction tools perform more accurately compared with the estimation of risk and outcomes by gynecologists and obstetricians in emergency situations including endometriosis and acute abdominal pain. There was acceptance of AI and its potential benefits. Ethical dilemmas of using AI include data governance, responsibility for errors, and security issues. Providing training on AI to healthcare professionals working in emergency departments is needed. Conclusions Healthcare professionals should educate themselves about the anticipated role of AI in gynecologic and obstetric emergencies, its indications, limitations, and ethical considerations so that they can take steps towards its application in their future practice using defined guidelines. Key message Why is this review is important? The use of AI in healthcare has created polarized thoughts among emergency medicine professionals. This review is an effort to compare the pros and cons of using AI in gynecologic and obstetric emergencies so that AI can be properly applied in these specialities. What does this review show? This review shows that there are several research studies in gynecology and obstetrics emergencies with positive points in favor of using AI in emergencies like acute abdominal and pelvic pain, and endometriosis. There are some reservations from the practitioners to use it due to lack of understanding of its nature, advantages and limitations. By narrating the findings of AI-related publications in gynecology and obstetrics emergency, we propose their applications and their limitations.

Title A name given to the resource The impact of a targeted Arab Board of Emergency Medicine examination preparation course on resident success rates Subject The topic of the resource Emergency medicine residents (EMRs), Examination preparation, Board certification, Arab board emergency medicine (ABEM), Objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) Description An account of the resource Abstract Background The Arab Board of Emergency Medicine (ABEM) examination is a critical milestone for emergency medicine residents (EMRs) aiming to transition to independent practice. Prior to this study, no structured course had been administered to prepare EMRs for the ABEM examination. To address this gap, a five-day evening preparatory course was developed, designed to align with ABEM requirements and deliver updated, essential knowledge. This study aims to evaluate the impact of this newly introduced preparatory course on EMRs’ success rates on the ABEM examination from 2017 to 2021. Methods The five-day in-person course was conducted annually in the evenings to accommodate both EMRs and faculty, scheduled approximately six weeks before the ABEM examination. The course content was specifically aligned with ABEM standards, focusing on relevant and contemporary knowledge. EMRs participated in assessments modeled after the ABEM examination, using standardized rubrics. Pass rates were compared to historical data, and demographic variables were thoroughly analyzed. Feedback was collected from both EMRs and faculty after each course to continuously refine and improve course content and delivery. Results Data were collected over a five-year period (2017–2021), with 49 emergency medicine residents (EMRs) (100%) participating in the course. The majority of participants were male (69.4%), and the cohort included graduates from diverse regions, including Sudan (22.4%) and Pakistan (18.4%). The overall pass rate for the Arab Board of Emergency Medicine (ABEM) examination significantly increased to 91.8%, compared to a pre-course pass rate of 60%. No significant impact on outcomes was observed based on factors such as gender, country of graduation, year of participation, or initial confidence levels. Feedback from both participants and faculty indicated high levels of satisfaction with the course, with recommendations for further content refinement and the inclusion of additional Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) stations. Conclusion The findings demonstrate the significant impact of the newly introduced, face-to-face, five-day ABEM preparatory course on EMR pass rates, potentially serving as a model for similar programs in other specialties. The results highlight the importance of targeted, up-to-date instruction in improving the confidence and success of EMRs on the ABEM examination. Furthermore, the course’s development and the incorporation of ongoing feedback played key roles in further enhancing the quality and effectiveness of the training program.
