Giris: Renal Sendromlu Hemorajik Ates (RSHA), Hantavirus cinsine bagli viruslerce olusan akut bir viral hastaliktir. Hantavirusler; ates, dolasim bozuklugu, kanama ve renal yetmezlik ile karekterize bir hastalik spektrumuna neden olurlar. Hipopitutiarizmin bilinen nedenleri pituiter iskemi/infarkt ve nekroz olup klinik ozelliklerinin belirsiz olmasindan dolayi genellikle farkedilemezler. Bu yazida, acil servise (AS) aciklanamayan hipoglisemi nedeni ile sevkedilen RSHA sonrasi panhipopituitarizm gelisen 60 yasina erkek olgusunu sunduk. Olgu Sunumu: Biz acil servise RSHA sonrasi gelisen panhipopitutuarizm beraber AS’ye aciklanamayan hipoglisemi ile basvuran 60 yasinda bir erkek hasta sunduk. Hastanin kan tetkiklerinde panhipopituitarizm ve anti-Hantavirus IgG ve IgM pozitifligi tespit edildi. Hormon replasman tedavisi baslandi ve hasta ayaktan takibe alinarak tam iyilesme ile taburcu edildi. Sonuc: Panhipopituitarizm RSHA sonrasi cok nadir gorulen bir komplikasyondur. Morbidite ve mortaliteyi azaltmak icin; acil tip, dahili tip ve enfeksiyon hastaliklari uzmanlari bu komplikasyona karsi uyanik olmalidirlar

In patients admitted to accident and emergency departments for anticoagulant use-related major hemorrhage and requiring urgent surgery or life-saving invasive intervention, the international normalized ration (INR) value should be rapidly corrected and bleeding should be controlled. With prothrombin complex concentrate (PCC), when used at optimal dose levels, target INR values are achieved within 15 min. In this study, we aimed to discuss the efficacy of the used four-factor PCC in 10 patients who were admitted to the accident and emergency department because of oral anticoagulant use-related major bleeding. Of all the patients to whom PCC treatment was administered, targeted INR levels could not be attained in 2 patients (20%). For our cases with gastrointestinal bleeding, the average baseline INR value was 7.3, while the average INR value after PCC administration was 1.9. For our subdural hematoma cases, the median baseline INR value was 2.5, while the median INR value after PCC administration was 1.3. We believe that PCCs used in eligible patient groups, as in this case series, may provide the desired results at lower doses and that they may be safer with regard to complications.

Medical simulation-based training offers a risk-free clinical environment and also promotes learner investment in active participation and allows for structured feedback for individual performance improvement. Adult learning needs specific methodologies for knowledge acquisition and skill improvement, which can be met by simulation sessions. Nowadays, integration of medical simulation into curriculum is the main concern of faculties. Patient safety, malpractice, and increased mortality rates caused by human errors increases the importance of medical simulation sessions for both undergraduate and postgraduate training programs (1). Many patient profiles that can be encountered in the emergency department (ED) can be simulated. High-fidelity patient simulators allow medical students to gain experience in contemporary educational practices before practicing on patients. For internship programs before they meet with real patients, boot camp courses in medical simulation centers are widely organized by universities. In Turkey, our university is pioneering this kind of educational programs. After preclinical conditions, interns feel fear and anxiety to take part in the real ED and work with the staff and equipment. Also, it is diffucult to manage that kind of situations for the instructors. This type of learner presents a challenge to the ED staff and physicians in teaching setings while still maintaining ED flow and the same level of patient care (1, 2). Center of Advanced Simulation and Education (CASE) is a multidisciplinary medical simulation center under the supervision of the university. The center has been running since 21 October 2013. CASE aims to give high-quality education with new training methodologies by using state-of-art simulation modalities and medical equipment. The center consists of two departments, medical simulation training center and advanced endoscopic/robotic surgery training center. CASE offers three types of simulation-based experiential learning via standardized patients, virtual reality task trainers, and high-fidelity manikins in a real hospital environment (Figure 1).

The history of airway management has become an issue of concern for clinicians because of the remarkable advances that have occurred in airway management in recent years. Endotracheal intubation became a routine medical practice in the second half of the 20 th century. Thereafter, progress was made in modern anesthesia and thoracic surgery. As the number of intubated patients increased, the need for a more effective placement of the tube also increased. (JAEM 2015; 14: 35-6)

A 20-year-old woman presented to the emergency department (ED) with progressive weakness, paresthesia, and back pain lasting for 8 days. She was conscious and her vital signs were normal. Her past medical history was unremarkable. No abnormality was found on radiography and computed tomography (CT). However, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed an intramedullary mass at the dorsal cord at approximately the T8-T9 level, accompanied by mild perilesional edema. Consequently, the patient was diagnosed with hemangioma. The patient underwent preoperative embolization, with minimal bleeding during surgery. (JAEM 2015; 14: 47-8)
