An Evaluation Of The Use Of Tranexamic Acid In The Treatment Of Bradykinin-Mediated Angioedema In The Emergency Department, Sarah Yb Kim, Carol Keller

Background
Bradykinin mediated angioedema is an overarching term that includes idiopathic angioedema, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEi) induced angioedema and hereditary angioedema (HAE). •This is an emergent condition that must be treated with the utmost urgency due to the fatal outcomes associated with the rapid constriction of the throat. •Bradykinin mediated angioedema is treated differently from histamine associated angioedema due to its resistance to corticosteroids and antihistamines. •HAE and ACEi induced angioedema are treated similarly but there is a lack of unanimity in the first line pharmacologic treatment. •Current treatment options include fresh frozen plasma, bradykinin-2 receptor antagonists, plasma-kallikrein inhibitors …

Evaluation And Implementation Of A New Phenobarbital Protocol For Alcohol Withdrawal Management In The Emergency Department, Sarah J. Kim, Sara Clark, Joshua L. Floyd

Background
• Alcohol withdrawal syndrome can lead to substantial health care costs and mortality. • Although historically benzodiazepines (BZDs) are considered the mainstay treatment for alcohol withdrawal, some studies have shown that phenobarbital may be the safer and preferred alternative option. • Advantages of phenobarbital are its mechanism of action, more predictable pharmacokinetics, and greater therapeutic index. • A prospective study by Rosenson et al. 2012 found that a single 10 mg/kg IV dose of phenobarbital versus standardized lorazepam protocol resulted in decreased ICU admissions (8% vs. 25%). • A retrospective study by Tidewell et al. 2018 demonstrated shorter hospital …
