Mashup Score: 4Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio on admission to predict the severity and mortality of COVID-19 patients: A meta-analysis - 3 year(s) ago
The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), an inflammatory marker, was suggested to be predictive of severity and mortality in COVID-19 patients. Here, we investigated whether NLR levels on admission could predict the severity and mortality of COVID-19 patients.

Mashup Score: 0Intravenous acetaminophen does not have an opioid sparing effect in Emergency Department patients with painful conditions - 3 year(s) ago
Pain in the Emergency Department is common and is frequently treated with opioids. Due to the opioid epidemic, it is clinically helpful to decrease opioid usage. The purpose of this study was to evaluate opioid requirement in Emergency Department patients with painful conditions who receive intravenous acetaminophen.

Mashup Score: 0Time to first defibrillation and survival outcomes of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest with refractory ventricular fibrillation - 3 year(s) ago
Timely defibrillation is associated with increased survival in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) cases. This study aimed to determine whether the time to first defibrillation was associated with good neurological outcomes in OHCA patients with refractory ventricular fibrillation.

Mashup Score: 1“Bring 'em all”: The ED in a tradition of refuge - 3 year(s) ago
The rapid deployment of advanced emergency medical care is a celebrated function of the modern emergency department. However, as anyone who has worked in an ED can attest, a wide array of conditions and situations are cared for which defy straightforward medical categorization. It is not uncommon for victims of human trafficking; the cold, hungry, and homeless; the estranged elderly; those in…

Mashup Score: 2
Proning has been shown to improve oxygenation and mortality in certain populations of intubated patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome. Small observational analyses of COVID-19 patients suggest awake proning may lead to clinical improvement. Data on safety and efficacy is lacking. We sought to describe the effect of proning on oxygenation in nonintubated COVID-19 patients. We also…

Mashup Score: 0Decreased hospital admissions through the emergency department during the COVID-19 pandemic - 4 year(s) ago
Emergency Department (ED) visits decreased significantly in the United States during the COVID-19 pandemic. A troubling proportion of this decrease was among patients who typically would have been admitted to the hospital, suggesting substantial deferment of care. We sought to describe and characterize the impact of COVID-19 on admissions, with a specific focus on diagnosis group, age, gender,…

Mashup Score: 4National analysis of COVID-19 and older emergency physicians - 4 year(s) ago
Emergency physicians (EPs) have played a critical role in the response to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). While public health efforts (e.g., statewide stay-at-home orders) had initially flattened the curve [1], COVID-19 spread in the U.S. has once again begun to accelerate. On October 23, 2020, the U.S. reached a new pandemic record of 83,010 daily cases [1], and all signs point toward an…

Mashup Score: 0Language preference does not influence stroke patients' symptom recognition or emergency care time metrics - 4 year(s) ago
Our objective was to determine whether acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients’ language preference is associated with differences in time from symptom discovery to hospital arrival, activation of emergency medical services, door-to-imaging time (DTI), and door-to-needle (DTN) time.
