Title A name given to the resource Outcomes and drug-related admissions of cardiovascular patients in the emergency department at Tikur Anbessa Specialized Hospital, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia Subject The topic of the resource Cardiovascular disease, Survival, Drug-related emergency admission, Drug-related problems Description An account of the resource Abstract Introduction Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of death globally, with a rising prevalence. The increase in medications, recognized conditions, and polypharmacy has led to more drug-related problems and emergency admissions among patients with CVD, negatively affecting healthcare outcomes and increasing morbidity and mortality. Objective This study aimed to assess outcomes of patients with CVD in the Emergency Department (ED) of Tikur Anbessa Specialized Hospital (TASH), the frequency of drug-related admissions, and factors associated with admissions and outcomes. Methods This prospective observational study included all patients with cardiovascular disease who presented to the Adult ED of TASH between September and December 2022, provided informed consent, and were taking at least one medication for their cardiovascular condition. Admission outcomes and prevalence of drug-related emergency admissions were calculated as percentages. Kaplan-Meier survival, Cox regression, and logistic regression analyses were used to estimate ED survival, factors associated with survival, and factors related to drug-related emergency admissions, respectively. Results Among 401 patients with CVD admitted to the ED, 23% had drug-related emergency admissions (DREAs), with non-adherence accounting for 58.4% of these cases. The overall ED mortality rate was 9.5%, with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) being the leading cause of death. Smoking history, dilated cardiomyopathy, gastrointestinal comorbidities, atrial fibrillation, and polypharmacy were significant predictors of early mortality. The most common ED admission diagnoses were congestive heart failure/ADHF (37.4%) and hypertension (26.2%), and diuretics, especially furosemide, were the most frequently prescribed medications. Additionally, polypharmacy, smoking, younger age (<18 years), longer disease duration, and marital status were significantly associated with a higher risk of DREAs.

Title A name given to the resource Emergency department point of care ultrasound utility in diagnosing infective endocarditis presenting as abdominal pain with bilateral iliac occlusion Subject The topic of the resource Infective Endocarditis (IE) is a life threatening disease Description An account of the resource Abstract Background Infective Endocarditis (IE) is a life threatening disease which is relatively rare especially in young healthy adults, and patients can rapidly deteriorate due to valvular insufficiency; however diagnosis can be challenging in the Emergency Department (ED). Case presentation We present a case of a 37 year old male who attended the ED with fever, diarrhoea and abdominal pain for one week. On arrival, he was febrile and tachycardic with right iliac fossa tenderness. Computed Tomography scan of the Abdomen and Pelvis revealed splenic and left kidney infarcts with bilateral iliac artery thrombi. Bedside Point Of Care Ultrasound (POCUS) showed a large Mitral Valve vegetation which supported the diagnosis of infective endocarditis with septic emboli. The patient was given intravenous antibiotics, crystalloids and antipyretics. He was urgently referred to Cardiology and Cardiothoracic surgeons for definitive surgical management, and was subsequently intubated due to worsening hypoxia from acute valvular insufficiency complicated by heart failure. The same night, he underwent emergency mitral valve replacement and embolectomy of bilateral iliac arteries. Blood cultures grew Group B Streptococcus. During his stay, he developed multiple mycotic pseudoaneurysms and a left insular cortex infarct as complications from the septic emboli. Conclusions This patient had an atypical presentation of infective endocarditis in the ED, and bedside POCUS was one of the keys to the diagnosis. Although infective endocarditis is rare, emergency physicians should be aware of the diagnosis and its potential complications, and consider it in prolonged fever without a clear source. Bedside POCUS can be a valuable first-line imaging tool in the ED to rule in the diagnosis of IE, and to look for complications as well as indications for surgical intervention. Further research needs to be done to look at the sensitivity and specificity of POCUS compared to routine Transthoracic Echocardiogram/ Transoesophageal Echocardiogram.

Title A name given to the resource Developing a conceptual framework to facilitate inter-organizational partnership in disasters and public health emergencies Subject The topic of the resource Collaboration, Disaster, Emergency, Integration, Multiagency Description An account of the resource Abstract Introduction Disasters and public health emergencies can overwhelm healthcare systems, requiring rapid increase in capacity, inter-agency collaboration, and the quick deployment of emergency medical teams. An effective response to these crises requires a structured approach that integrates multiple entities, including healthcare, military, and community organizations. Current frameworks often lack structured methods for optimizing collaboration, which can lead to redundancy and inefficiency. This study aims to address this gap by developing a conceptual framework combining collaboration and integration theories to improve inter-organizational partnerships in emergency management. Methods To develop this framework, a comprehensive literature review was conducted identifying gaps in existing theoretical models of integration and collaboration. We examined integration theory at five distinct levels: structural, functional, normative, interpersonal, and process. Simultaneously, we explored collaboration theory, focusing on socio-cognitive, intersubjectivity, and distributed cognition frameworks. The study then synthesized these theories into a new, combined framework. This framework aligns integration components with key collaborative principles such as shared decision-making, effective communication, and adaptability. To make this framework a practical tool, we incorporated the CSCATTT model (Command and Control, Safety, Communication, Assessment, Triage, Treatment, Transport). This model typically used in collaborative exercises, serves as a practical guide for implementing and evaluating collaboration in real-world scenarios. Results The proposed framework provides a structured approach for responding to disasters and public health emergencies by identifying key points where integration and collaboration can effectively be combined. It demonstrates that integration theory ensures system cohesion and operational efficiency, while collaboration theory fosters adaptability and stakeholder engagement. By aligning these two theories, the framework facilitates more effective multi-agency partnerships. The inclusion of the CSCATTT model enhances structured decision-making, enabling coordinated and efficient action during emergencies. Conclusion By integrating collaboration and integration theories, this study offers a robust model for enhancing partnerships during disasters and public health emergencies. The proposed framework improves resource utilization, inter-agency coordination, cooperation, and overall effectiveness of collaborative responses, all while maintaining Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Jonas Zimmerman1,2*, Amir Khorram-Manesh1,2,3, Eric Carlström1,2,3, Yohan Robinson1,2 and Joakim Björås1,2 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://doi.org/10.1186/s12245-025-01027-7 Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2025 Contributor An entity responsible for making contributions to the resource Peri Irawan Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource pdf Language A language of the resource english Type The nature or genre of the resource text Collaboration, Disaster, Emergency, Integration, Multiagency https://repository.horizon.ac.id/files/original/efb3fdc3137857803e962d70c67275d4.pdf f593b129a45c0ccb53215e3eb728b420 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Aniline-induced refractory methemoglobinemia in polytrauma: successful management with erythrocytapheresis Subject The topic of the resource Methemoglobinemia, Tissue hypoxia, Erythrocytapheresis, Methylene blue, Aniline dyes, Polytrauma Description An account of the resource Abstract Background Methemoglobinemia is a life-threatening condition characterized by the inability of hemoglobin to transport oxygen efficiently. This case report describes acquired methemoglobinemia caused by exposure to aniline dye, which was successfully treated with erythrocytapheresis following the insufficient effect of methylene blue. Case presentation A 39-year-old male suffered multiple injuries, including burns and fractures, after falling into a barrel containing aniline. On site, emergency medical services (EMS) intubated the patient, performed chest decompression for pneumothorax, and decontaminated him before transferring him to a trauma centre. In the emergency unit, imaging revealed multiple rib, scapula, and pelvic fractures, retroperitoneal bleeding, and 15% total body surface area (TBS) burns. He was hemodynamically unstable, with metabolic acidosis, an oxygen saturation gap, and an initial methemoglobin level (MetHb) of 19%. Despite methylene blue treatment, the MetHb levels rose to undetectable levels (>20%), and severe hemodynamic instability, refractory hypoxia, and metabolic derangement required the use of erythrocytapheresis. Conclusion Aniline exposure leads to the oxidation of ferrous iron (Fe2+) in hemoglobin to ferric iron (Fe3+), resulting in methemoglobinemia and impaired oxygen delivery. While methylene blue remains the first-line treatment, erythrocytapheresis proved effective in restoring tissue oxygenation in refractory methemoglobinemia complicated by hemorrhagic and traumatic shock.

Title A name given to the resource An unusual triad: tuberculomas, tubercular meningitis, and hydrosyringomyelia in a child from a suburban region Subject The topic of the resource Tuberculomas, Tubercular meningitis, Hydrosyringomyelia, Magnetic resonance imaging, Suburban region Description An account of the resource Abstract Central nervous system (CNS) tuberculosis is a rare but serious manifestation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection, especially in the paediatric population. We report a rare case of an eight year old male child from a suburban region presenting with intracranial tuberculomas, tubercular meningitis, and spinal hydrosyringomyelia (HSM). Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) revealed multiple brain tuberculomas, basal exudates, abnormal meningeal enhancement, spinal HSM with features of arachnoiditis. The patient was operated for removal of tuberculomas and placement of ventriculo-peritoneal (V- P) shunt and responded well to antitubercular therapy and corticosteroids. Tuberculosis should be considered in the differential diagnosis in children presenting with unexplained neurological symptoms in endemic regions. Early neuroimaging is critical in avoiding morbidity and permanent neurological damage.

Title A name given to the resource Factors contributing to bleeding and perforated peptic ulcers in Syria: findings from a multicenter cohort study Subject The topic of the resource Keywords Peptic‐ulcer, Bleeding, Perforation, Syria, Conflict‐zone, Epidemiology, Gastric, Duodenal Description An account of the resource Abstract Background Peptic ulcer disease (PUD) is a common gastrointestinal disorder characterized by the formation of open lesions in the stomach or duodenum, leading to potentially life-threatening complications such as bleeding, perforation, and obstruction. Despite advances in understanding its pathophysiology and management, PUD continues to present significant health challenges, particularly in conflict-affected regions like Syria. This study investigates clinical presentation, demographic factors, and risk profiles associated with bleeding and perforated ulcers, aiming to contribute to evidence-based strategies for improving diagnosis and management in resource- limited settings. Methods A multicenter cohort study was conducted across five major hospitals in Syria from 2018 to 2023, enrolling 242 patients diagnosed with bleeding or perforated ulcers. Demographic data, clinical histories, lifestyle factors, and medical interventions were collected from hospital records. Statistical analyses, including Chi-square tests, t-tests, and logistic regression, were performed to identify associations between ulcer types, demographic variables, and clinical outcomes. Results Significant demographic differences were found between patients with bleeding and perforated ulcers. The bleeding group was older (mean age=60.4±18.7 years) compared to the perforation group (mean age=49.4±16.9 years), with rural residents more likely to experience bleeding ulcers (57.3%). Patients with a past history of peptic ulcer disease, gastritis, or other upper‐GI disorders were more likely to develop perforated ulcers, while those with multiple comorbidities were predisposed to bleeding ulcers. Lifestyle factors, such as occupation and smoking status, also influence ulcer type, with retired individuals more likely to develop bleeding ulcers and heavy smokers more often diagnosed with perforation. Clinical outcomes varied, with interventions predominantly consisting of open surgeries for perforated ulcers and laparoscopic approaches for bleeding ulcers.

Title A name given to the resource Two simultaneous cases of exertional heat stroke during a trail run in Guadeloupe (French West Indies): exceptional presentations or emerging trend? Subject The topic of the resource Heat stroke, Exercise, Tropical climate, Emergency, Multivisceral Description An account of the resource Abstract Background Exertional heat stroke is a potentially fatal condition that can affect individuals performing intensive physical activity, particularly in hot environments. We report two simultaneous cases of EHS that occurred during the same outdoor sporting event in Guadeloupe (French West Indies) in April, in two unrelated young athletes with similar profiles but different clinical pictures. At the time of the event, the apparent temperature was 29.6 °C with a relative humidity of 85%. Cases presentation Patient 1: A 22-year-old man with no known medical history collapsed during an endurance test after running for one hour and 40 minutes. Pre-hospital medical care was immediately initiated and the onsite clinical assessment revealed deep coma and major hyperthermia (41.7°C). The patient was rehydrated, cooled using ice packs, and intubated onsite before being medically transferred to an intensive care unit. On admission, he presented with multi-organ dysfunction syndrome affecting neurological, hemodynamic, renal, and hepatic functions. Intensive care management included external cooling, vasopressor support with noradrenaline, extrarenal purification, antibiotic therapy and continuous administration of N-acetylcysteine. After more than 16 days in intensive care, the patient was discharged home without sequelae. Patient 2: A 19-year-old man with no known medical history collapsed in the same morning, at almost the same time, during that endurance test after running for one hour and 35 minutes. Unlike the first case, no pre-hospital medical care was provided. The patient was evacuated to an emergency department. On admission, clinical examination revealed confusion and hyperthermia (39.2°C). Blood tests revealed rhabdomyolysis associated with acute renal failure yet was treated with intravenous fluid therapy. He eventually recovered and was discharged on the same day. Conclusions The tropical climate is an extrinsic risk factor for exertional heat stroke, which can lead to diverse clinical presentations of varying severity when combined with other factors such as intrinsic factors.

Title A name given to the resource Clinical presentation and management outcome of abdominal stab wounds in a low-resource setting: experience of a central hospital in Sudan Subject The topic of the resource Abdominal stab wounds, Abdominal trauma, Exploratory laparotomy, Bowel injury, Solid organ injury Description An account of the resource Abstract Background Abdominal stab injuries are a major public health concern worldwide, especially in African countries. This study aimed to examine the presentation patterns and management outcomes of abdominal stab wounds. Methods This descriptive, prospective, cross-sectional, hospital-based study was conducted at Wad Medani Teaching Hospital, including all patients with abdominal stab wounds from January 2022 to December 2022. Patient characteristics and clinical presentations were documented. Factors influencing management outcomes were analyzed and correlated. Result The total number of patients admitted to the hospital with abdominal stab wounds is 47. The most common age group is between 20 and 29 years (38.3%), with the majority being male (97.9%). They are mainly from Gezira State (61.7%) and live in rural areas (38.3%). The most common occupation among them is labor, making up 51.1%. Patients were admitted within the first two hours in 57.5% of cases. The organs most often involved in this study include the small bowel, large bowel, and mesentery, affecting 27.7%, 23.4%, and 17.0% of patients, respectively. Additionally, 25.4% of patients sustained associated injuries. Of the 40 patients treated, 30 (60.8%) underwent a laparotomy. From a total of 30 laparotomies, 14 patients (46.6%) underwent resection and anastomosis, while 7 patients (23.3%) had their small bowel injuries repaired. Most patients recovered, while four (8.5%) developed complications. Conclusion In our setting, abdominal stab wounds predominantly affect young males in their productive years. The small intestine is the most frequently injured organ, and most patients require an exploratory laparotomy as part of their treatment.

Title A name given to the resource Inserting a venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation drainage cannula into the inferior vena cava through the internal jugular vein in a patient with an inferior vena cava filter Subject The topic of the resource Inferior vena cava filter, VA-ECMO, Obstructive shock, VTE Description An account of the resource Venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) is a critical treatment for patients with massive pulmonary embolism (PE) complicated by refractory cardiogenic shock. In this case, an inferior vena cava (IVC) filter and iliac vein thrombosis posed a risk of filter migration with conventional femoral venous access, necessitating an alternative drainage approach. We treated an 18-year-old male with hereditary thrombophilia due to a prothrombin gene (F2) mutation who presented with acute massive PE and cardiogenic shock. Following emergency pulmonary artery thrombectomy and IVC filter placement, VA-ECMO was initiated using right internal jugular vein cannulation for venous drainage and femoral artery cannulation for arterial return. Hemodynamic stability was rapidly achieved, allowing successful weaning and decannulation within 96 h. The patient was discharged on postoperative day 11 without neurological complications. This case demonstrates that jugular-to-IVC cannulation is a feasible and effective VA-ECMO drainage strategy for patients with existing IVC filters, avoiding mechanical complications associated with filter traversal.

Title A name given to the resource Bioelectrical impedance analysis for evaluation of adverse cardiovascular events in patients with acute coronary syndromes: a prospective cohort study Subject The topic of the resource Bioelectrical impedance analysis, Acute coronary syndromes, Major adverse cardiac event, Troponin, Left ventricular ejection fraction Description An account of the resource Abstract Background Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is a noninvasive method for assessing body fluid composition and may offer prognostic value in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Materials In this longitudinal cohort study, we enrolled 467 patients with ACS to investigate the association between BIA-derived parameters and 1-year major adverse cardiac events (MACE), including all-cause mortality, reinfarction, or heart failure (HF) requiring rehospitalization. BIA focused on measuring the electrodynamic properties of intracellular and extracellular fluids. Results Patients who developed MACE had significantly higher impedance (Z, calculated as the vector sum of resistance [R] and reactance [Xc]) compared to those without MACE. A Z value of 417.5 was identified as the optimal cutoff for predicting MACE risk (log-rank test, p<0.001). Using this cutoff, the sensitivity and specificity for predicting MACE were 24.8% and 91.5%, respectively, with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.60. Elevated Z remained an independent predictor of MACE after adjustment for baseline confounders in both univariate (HR 2.93, 95% CI 1.98– 4.35, p<0.001) and multivariate cox regression analyses (HR 3.95, 95% CI 2.55–6.10, p<0.001). Incorporating BIA with conventional measures such as LVEF significantly enhanced prognostic accuracy (p<0.05). Moreover, the Z threshold allowed for refined risk stratification. Conclusion In ACS patients with elevated troponin, Z showed potential prognostic value for MACE. Combining BIA with LVEF improved prognostic discrimination, suggesting Z may complement LVEF for more comprehensive risk stratification.
