It is a matter of time before the next widespread pandemic or natural disaster hits the United States (U.S.). The international response to the 2009 H1N1 influenza stands as a cautionary tale about how prepared the world is for such an emergency. Although the pandemic fortunately proved to be less severe than initially anticipated, it nevertheless resulted in shortages of medical equipment, overburdened hospitals, and preventable patient deaths, particularly among young people.
A pandemic will inevitably lead to difficult decisions about the allocation of medical resources, such as who will have priority access to ventilators and critical care beds when …

Catastrophic Incident Search And Rescue Lessons From The 2013 Colorado Floods, Thomas Miner, Richard N. Bradley
Richard N Bradley
The response to the Colorado floods is a textbook example of how to respond to catastrophic disasters Responders from hundreds of different organizations came together to form a single coordinated, unified command structure that resulted in the rapid and effective evacuation and rescue of hundreds of people in just three days. Local responders performed hundreds of highly dangerous rescues during the height of the storm. They established incident command at the county level using type 3 incident command teams. When they realized they were facing an unprecedented storm with catastrophic damage they asked for help and state and federal responders …

Introduction: The need for efficient access to academic resources in the Emergency Department is crucial to the Emergency physician. Many academic medical libraries have a large volume of information that makes it difficult to find answers in a time-sensitive clinical setting. We designed an Emergency Medicine library guide, tested its efficiency and surveyed users about their preference of an EM library website compared to the general library website.Methods: We created an EM library guide using the Libguide software by Springshare. We then created two tests of similar clinical questions simulating cases in the Emergency Department where researching an answer would …

The Quest For Full Text: An In-Depth Examination Of Pubget For Medical Searchers, Robin Featherstone, Denise Hersey

This article examines Pubget, a free Web-based search engine for life sciences researchers for conducting searches of the medical literature and retrieving full-text PDFs. Its search functionality and add-on features are evaluated to determine potential for library instruction and promotion. With many libraries relying on OpenURL link resolvers to connect searchers with institutional subscriptions, Pubget offers an alternative by combining search, article-level link resolving, and authentication in a single platform. The authors determine advantages and disadvantages for using Pubget based on product testing and make recommendations for institutions interested in “activating” subscriptions in Pubget.

Analysis United Kingdom And United States Healthcare, Joyce K. Kutin
Joyce K Kutin RN, MSN, MOL
United Kingdom and the United States are two dissimilar health systems each having uniquely differing focuses, where the primary differences are a parliamentary verses a republic government application toward the socioeconomic requirements of the populace. The United Kingdom’s National Health Service interprets health care as a public service rather than the commodity. The United States healthcare system is riddled with disparities regarding quality, access and cost. The socioeconomic poor and or homeless are less likely to utilize the healthcare system when compared to others who are more fortunate. Health care systems are facing the same challenges around the world with …

The Impact Of Health Care Reform On Emergency Medical Services, Richard N. Bradley, Sabina A. Braithwaite
Richard N Bradley
On March 23, 2010, President Obama signed the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) into law. The reforms introduced through PPACA present a paradigm shift in the future delivery model of all health care, including Emergency Medical Services (EMS). Changes embodied in this law offer a variety of opportunities to improve the delivery of care in urgent and emergent medical situations in the out-of-hospital setting. PPACA offers a number of avenues for EMS to engage at a much higher level as professional members of the health care team going forward. Certain components of the law stand to facilitate and …
