Gender- And Sex-Specific Sports-Related Injury Research In Emergency Medicine: A Consensus On Future Research Direction And Focused Application., Neha P Raukar, Mark R Zonfrillo, Kathleen Kane, Moira Davenport, Tamara R Espinoza, Jessica Weiland, Vanessa Franco, Federico E Vaca

Kathleen E Kane MD

Title IX, the commercialization of sports, the social change in sports participation, and the response to the obesity epidemic have contributed to the rapid proliferation of participation in both competitive organized sports and nontraditional athletic events. As a consequence, emergency physicians are regularly involved in the acute diagnosis, management, disposition, and counseling of a broad range of sports-related pathology. Three important and highly publicized mechanisms of injury in sports relevant to emergency medicine (EM) include concussion, heat illness, and sudden cardiac death. In conjunction with the 2014 Academic Emergency Medicine consensus conference "Gender-specific Research in Emergency Care: Investigate, Understand, and …

Emergency Medicine Gender-Specific Education., John Ashurst, Alyson J Mcgregor, Basmah Safdar, Kevin Weaver, Shawn M Quinn, Alexander Rosenau, Terrence Goyke, Kevin Roth, Marna Greenberg

Marna R Greenberg DO, MPH, FACEP

The 2014 Academic Emergency Medicine consensus conference has taken the first step in identifying gender-specific care as an area of importance to both emergency medicine (EM) and research. To improve patient care, we need to address educational gaps in this area concurrent with research gaps. In this article, the authors highlight the need for sex- and gender-specific education in EM and propose guidelines for medical student, resident, and faculty education. Specific examples of incorporating this content into grand rounds, simulation, bedside teaching, and journal club sessions are reviewed. Future challenges and strategies to fill the gaps in the current education …

Sex Differences In Cardiac Arrest Survivors Who Receive Therapeutic Hypothermia, Marna Greenberg, Amy Ahnert, Nainesh Patel, Courtney Bennett, Nicole Elliott, Mark Lundquist, Andrew Miller, Ellina Feiner, Anita Kurt, Bernadette Gl-Porter, Mercedes Rios-Scott, David Burmeister

Nainesh C Patel MD

OBJECTIVE: Sex differences have not been well defined for patients undergoing therapeutic hypothermia (TH). We aimed to determine sex differences in mortality and Cerebral Performance Category (CPC) scores at discharge among those receiving TH. METHODS: This retrospective cohort study used data abstracted from an "ICE alert" database, an institutional protocol expediting mild TH for postarrest patients. Quality assurance variables (such as age, time to TH, CPC scores, and mortality) were reviewed and compared by sex. χ(2) Test and Wilcoxon rank sum test were used. Stepwise logistic regression was used to assess the association between mortality and sex, while controlling for …

The ‘‘Ice’’ Study: Feasibility Of Inexpensive Commercial Coolers On Mobile Ems Units, Kathleen E. Kane Md, Robert J. Tomsho Do, Ms, Karen Pheasant Do, Thomas Stauffer Do, Brent R. Schoenfeldt Do, Scott Hamilton Do, Travis Kain Do, Bryan G. Kane Md

Kathleen E Kane MD, FACEP

Introduction: Prehospital postresuscitation induced hypothermia (IH) has been shown to reduce neurological complications in comatose cardiac-arrest survivors. Retrofitting ambulances to include equipment appropriate to initiate hypothermia, such as refrigeration units for cooled saline, is expensive. The objective of this nonhuman subject research study was to determine if inexpensive, commercially available coolers could, in conjunction with five reusable ice packs, keep two 1 L bags of precooled 0.9% normal saline solution (NSS) at or below 48C for an average shift of eight to 12 hours in a real-world environment, on board in-service Emergency Medical Service (EMS) units, over varying weather conditions …

Patient Attitudes Regarding Consent For Emergency Department Computed Tomographies, Michael Weigner Md, Kate M. Dewar Do, Hilary F. Basham Do, Valerie Rupp Rn, Bsn, Marna R. Greenberg Do, Mph, Facep

Marna R Greenberg DO, MPH, FACEP

INTRODUCTION: Little is known about patient attitudes towards informed consent for computed tomography (CT) in the emergency department (ED). We set out to determine ED patient attitudes about providing informed consent for CTs.

METHODS: In this cross-sectional questionnaire-based survey study, we evaluated a convenience sample of patients' attitudes about providing informed consent for having a CT at 2 institutional sites. Historically, at our institutional network, patients received a CT at approximately 25% of their ED visits. The survey consisted of 17 "yes/no" or multiple-choice questions. The primary outcome question was "which type of informed consent do you feel is appropriate …

Ethical Considerations In Education Research In Emergency Medicine, Chadd Kraus, Todd Guth, Derek Richardson, Bryan Kane, Catherine Marco

Bryan G Kane MD

The 2012 Academic Emergency Medicine consensus conference on education research in emergency medicine (EM) addressed various issues, including that of ethics in medical education research for EM. Education research in EM is essential to patient care and safety, and with recent advances in simulation and the advent of the Milestones project, it will become even more vital. Education research in EM is guided by the same principles that guide the ethical conduct of all human subjects' research: respect for persons, beneficence, and justice. Regulatory provisions and widely accepted ethical standards provide a framework for research in EM education; however, special …
