Aim: The Cunningham method allows for the reduction of anterior shoulder dislocations (ASD) without procedural sedation and analgesia (PSA) in some patients. This pilot study evaluates the feasibility of investigating whether the administration of inhaled methoxyflurane (I-MEOF) increases the success rate of Cunningham reduction of ASD. Materials and Methods: Twenty patients with uncomplicated ASD underwent reduction attempts using the Cunningham method supported by I-MEOF analgesia (Cunningham/I-MEOF). Outcomes included the success rate without the requirement for PSA, emergency department length of stay (LOS), and operator and patient satisfaction. Results: Of the patients enrolled. 80% were male, median age was 38.6 years (range 18-71) and 55% were the first dislocations. 35% (8/20 patients) were successfully reduced using Cunningham/I-MEOF. The remainder of patients proceeded to successful closed reduction under PSA. 60% of operators reported good to excellent satisfaction with the process. Operators identified the primary cause of failed initial reduction attempts as inadequate muscle relaxation. 80% of patients reported good to excellent satisfaction. Patients whose initial reduction attempt with Cunningham/I-MEOF was successful had an average LOS of 149 min, compared with 216 min for those who proceeded to reduction under PSA. Conclusion: Success with ASD reduction by the Cunningham technique was marginally increased with the use of I-MEOF, although 65% of patients still required PSA to facilitate reduction. Both providers and patients found the process generally satisfactory, suggesting that early administration of analgesia is appreciated.

Mesenteric cysts are rare benign intra-abdominal pediatric lesions. It has a variable clinical presentation from an asymptomatic mass to an acute abdomen that appears in the omentum or mesentery of the gastrointestinal tract. Abdominal ultrasound and complete surgical resection are the modality of choice for diagnosis and treatment. Here, we present 15 months old boy who presented to the emergency department with constipation and abdominal pain and was found to have a huge mesenteric cyst that was excised surgically

Aim: We investigated the characteristics of patients involved in bicycle accidents, along with the mechanisms of accidents and clinical outcomes in children. Our secondary aim was to assess the characteristics of patients with serious clinical consequences, such as traumatic brain injury (TBI) and permanent neurological sequelae. Materials and Methods: Children admitted to the pediatric emergency department of a tertiary referral hospital during a four-year period due to bicycle accidents were included. The mechanism of the accident was classified into two groups; high-energy trauma and low-energy trauma. Statistical analyses were performed to recognize injury patterns and clinical outcomes associated with the mechanism of the accident. Results: Three hundred-sixty children were included. Two of the injured patients were using a bicycle helmet. Twenty-nine patients (8.1%) required surgery. Fourteen patients had clinically important TBI. Eighteen patients had handlebar trauma to the abdomen. Eight patients had permanent neurological sequelae (vision loss in three, hearing loss in three, spasticity and hemiparesis in two patients) and two patients had finger amputations. Abrasions/soft tissue injuries, scalp fractures, maxillofacial fractures and TBI were also significantly more common types of injury in high-energy trauma. Conclusion: Although the recommendation of using helmets while riding was made two decades ago, the rate of helmet use is still very low in our country. In this retrospective cohort with low rate and no obligatory regulation of helmet use, high-energy bicycle accidents have caused significant clinical outcomes, including maxillofacial-scalp fractures, TBI, permanent sensory (visual and hearing) or motor (spasticity and hemiparesis) disability.

A 55-year-old male patient presented to our outpatient clinic with complaints of dark urine and fatigue. The laboratory parameters were as follows: alanine aminotransferase 821 IU/L, aspartate aminotransferase 1042 IU/L, alkaline phosphatase 412 IU/L gamma-glutamyl transferase 268 IU/L and the complete urinalysis revealed hematuria, while other laboratory parameters were normal. The patient's abdominal ultrasonography (USG) and Doppler USG showed no pathological finding. Hepatitis and the other serologies were negative. The patient, who did not exhibit any symptoms of Coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) initially, exhibited bilateral opacities in the middle zones on chest X-ray taken after the development of fever and dyspnea on the third day of hospitalization. The computed tomography scan revealed segmental consolidation across the subpleural regions, mostly in the middle zones, and was evaluated to be consistent with COVID-19. COVID-19 treatment was planned for the patient whose nasopharyngeal swab tested positive for severe acute respiratory syndrome-Coronavirus-2.

Aim: Inconsistent results were reported in studies on the relationship between pneumothorax and meteorological condition. We investigated whether meteorological variables increase the incidence of pneumothorax application in a region of Turkey with intense southwestern winds. Materials and Methods: The study was conducted retrospectively using the hospital records of patients diagnosed with spontaneous pneumothorax (SP) at the emergency department or thoracic surgery outpatient clinics between January 2016 and December 2018. The admissions were grouped according to the month and seasons. Meteorological data, including daily mean temperatures (°C), atmospheric pressure (millibars), moisture (%), and wind (m/s), were obtained from the local meteorological directorate. The meteorological data on the days with and without SP were compared. Results: Total 264 patients diagnosed as pneumothorax included to this study. Of the patients, 27 (10.2%) were female, and 237 (89.8%) were male. The mean age was 36.71±17.95 years (between 18-92). Of these patients, 185 (70.0%) had primary SP, while 79 (29.9%) had secondary SP (SSP). During the study period, lower atmospheric pressure, humidity and higher °C were detected in July, August and September (<0.05). SSP was significantly higher in August and September (p<0.05). While southwestern winds were recorded on 703 days (74.5%), there were 214 days (22.7%) without such winds. Regarding the daily number of pneumothorax patient admissions, there was no statistically significant relationship between southwestern winds and SP. Conclusion: SSP was significantly higher in August and September because of lower atmospheric pressure, humidity and higher °C.

Aim: To compare the diagnostic accuracy of HACOR score in predicting non-invasive ventilation (NIV) failure among acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive airway disease and acute decompensated heart failure patients, and study the correlation of HACOR score with a length of stay and hospital mortality rate. Materials and Methods: A prospective observational study was conducted in the Emergency Department of Hospital Melaka. We enrolled patients who presented with acute respiratory distress and started them with NIV. The efficacy of the HACOR score is evaluated at several interval time points, before NIV initiation, 1 h, 2 h post NIV initiation. Results: HACOR score is much lower in NIV success subgroups and 100% NIV failure rate for the HACOR score more than 7 at 1 h and 2 h of NIV. With a cut-off value of more than 5 in 1 h of NIV, the diagnostic power is 86.27% with a sensitivity of 62.50% and specificity of 90.70%. While at 2 h of NIV the HACOR score of more than 5, its diagnostic power is 87.50% a sensitivity of 50% and specificity of 95%. In 0-2 hours of NIV, area under the curve for predicting NIV failure was 0.788, 0.868 and 0.925, respectively. Conclusion: The HACOR has good diagnostic accuracy when it is assessed at 1-2 h of NIV. It is convenient to use it to assess the efficacy of NIV especially for heart failure patients. However, HACOR score was a weak predictor of mortality in our study. The length of hospital stay was also found to be longer for those who failed to respond to NIV in our study.
