The Impact Of Demographic Factors And Language On Stroke Metrics Within The Hca Healthcare System, Henry Yelkin, Glenn Goodwin, Jonghoon Chang, Mchenry Mauger, Erin Marra

East Florida Division GME Research Day 2023

Background: Effective evaluation of stroke symptoms necessitates a comprehensive clinical assessment, influencing the timely administration of tissue plasminogen activator (tPA). This study examines the relationship between patients’ preferred language as well demographic factors and stroke care metrics within the framework of the HCA Healthcare System.

Methods: A retrospective study design was used to examine the national HCA database for all patients admitted to an HCA hospital with a diagnosis of stroke and with a recorded NIH stroke scale (NIHSS) between the years of 2017 and 2022. 37,956 patient visits from 170 HCA hospitals were analyzed to compare stroke metrics including …

From Pest Control To Poison Control: A Novel Case Report Of Delayed Carbamate Poisoning., Kashan Mahmood, Erin Marra, Taylor Craig, Gaurav Patel

East Florida Division GME Research Day 2023

Introduction: Carbamates are a class of insecticides structurally and mechanistically similar to organophosphate (OP) insecticides. Carbamates are N-methyl carbamates derived from a carbamic acid and cause carbamylation of acetylcholinesterase at neuronal synapses and neuromuscular junctions. While they possess a similar mechanism of action to the irreversible phosphorylation of acetylcholinesterase by organophosphates, carbamates bind to acetylcholinesterase reversibly. Subsequently, carbamates typically have a similar toxicological presentation to OP poisonings with a duration of toxicity that is typically less than 24 hours.

Case Presentation: We present a case of a 51-year-old male who was complaining of diarrhea, lacrimation, salivation, headache, photophobia, diaphoresis, and …

A Case Of Hyperkalemia Secondary To Table Salt Alternative In A Patient With Normal Renal Function, Souhil M. Jaafil, Laura Tortora, Erin Marra, Steven Shapiro

East Florida Division GME Research Day 2023

Introduction: Hyperkalemia is a commonly presenting electrolyte derangement, usually secondary to chronic kidney disease or medication use. In one retrospective study by Singer et al of 100,260 Emergency Department (ED) patient visits it was found that 1 in 11 ED patients presented with a potassium derangement (1). Patients can present in various ways, from asymptomatic to life threatening arrhythmias. A less commonly recognized cause of hyperkalemia is dietary substitutions for everyday table salt. Ayach et al reported a patient with potassium of 9.8 mmol/L secondar to dietary substitutions but with acute kidney injury and ACE inhibitor use (2). Through a …

BACKGROUND: The risk of mortality is relatively high among patients who visit the emergency department (ED), and stratifying patients at high risk can help improve medical care. This study aimed to create a machine-learning model that utilizes the standard 12-lead ECG to forecast acute mortality risk in ED patients.

METHODS: The database included patients who visited the EDs and underwent standard 12-lead ECG between October 2007 and December 2017. A convolutional neural network (CNN) ECG model was developed to classify survival and mortality using 12-lead ECG tracings acquired from 345,593 ED patients. For machine learning model development, the patients were …
