Clinical statements and guidelines dynamically regenerate with rapidly growing new evidence and regulate our daily clinical practice. On the other hand, our obedience on traditional experiences might lead us to manage patients inappropriately. Recently published guidelines on ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) by the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) and American College of Cardiology (ACC) have altered and changed many previously accurate managements. The aim of this review is to evaluate the recommendations of the new STEMI guidelines and the inappropriate management practices we perform in our daily practice. (JAEM 2014; 13: 199-203)

Takotsubo syndrome (TS) has been described as an acute cardiac condition precipitated by a stressful mental or physical condition. A majority of patients are presented with acute substernal chest pain. It is often difficult to differentiate TS from acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) on initial presentation. The electrocardiograph classically mimics STEMI and is generally accompanied by elevation of myocardial enzymes that warrants immediate cardiac catheterization. The present article reports a patient with TS referred to the emergency department because of symptoms suggestive of acute coronary syndrome. (JAEM 2015; 14: 41-3)

Aim: The aim of this retrospective study was to investigate the prognostic value of red cell distribution width (RDW) and other hematological parameters measured on admission to the emergency department in patients with organophosphate poisoning. Materials and Methods: All patients aged ≥15 years who were admitted to the emergency department from 2008 to 2013 on account of organophosphate poisoning were included in the study. The written and electronic medical charts of the patients were reviewed. Hematological parameters were recorded. Mechanical ventilation requirement was used as the primary endpoint. Results: A total of 72 patients were included in the study for evaluation. Mechanically ventilated patients had significantly higher leukocyte counts and RDW levels than non-ventilated patients (p=0.004 and p<0.001, respectively). The area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve of RDW levels for predicting mechanical ventilation requirement was 0.716 (95% CI: 0.581-0.852, p=0.010). RDW had a sensitivity of 73%, specificity of 70%, and negative predictive value of 91% with a cut-off value of 14.5% in predicting mechanical ventilation requirement in patients with organophosphate poisoning. Conclusion: RDW can be a valuable and easy-to-use parameter in estimating prognosis in the follow-up of patients with organophosphate poisoning. (JAEM 2015; 14: 65-9)

Introduction: Electrical injuries are important environmental emergencies, ranging from simple skin burns to death. In this case, thalamic infarction, as a rare effect of electrical injury, will be discussed. Case Report: A 38-year-old male patient being multiplied 380 volt industrial electricity was admitted to the emergency department with complaints of numbness and loss of strength on the right side 1 day after the event. In the first examination, the vital signs were stable and the patient was conscious. The lung, heart, and abdominal examination was normal. Whole blood count and blood chemistry were normal. The ECG was normal sinus rhythm. An acute infarct in the left thalamic level was detected in the captured brain CT and diffusion MR. All tests conducted for the etiology were considered normal. The patient was followed and treated for 15 days in the neurology department and then discharged from there. Conclusion: Electrical injuries are common and major environmental emergencies that can be fatal. They can cause a lot of early and late neurologic syndromes. Cerebral infarction within this syndrome is a very rare statement. Although paresthesia due to electrical injuries is transient, imaging methods, such as CT and MR, should be used.

Giris: Şupheli pnomotoraksin ultrasonografi ile degerlendirilmesi acil servis bolumlerinde yapilan rutin bir islemdir. Ultrasonografi pnomotoraksin tespit edilmesinde oldukca duyarlidir, ancak bazi yanlis-pozitif sonuclar vermektedir.
