This chapter in the Oxford Handbook of Emergency Medicine discusses infectious diseases in the emergency department (ED). It starts by examining the general subjects of incubation periods, notifiable infectious diseases, and childhood diseases. It goes on to explore specific diseases, including meningitis, acute encephalitis, herpes simplex virus, herpes varicella-zoster, Zika virus, gastroenteritis/food poisoning, fish poisoning, infestations, tuberculosis, anthrax, streptococcal infections, staphylococcal infections, tetanus, gas gangrene, botulism, sexually transmitted infections, hepatitis, leptospirosis (Weil’s disease), and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). It discusses imported infectious diseases, such as malaria, typhoid and paratyphoid (enteric fever), dengue, poliomyelitis, rabies, viral haemorrhagic fevers, and severe acute respiratory syndrome, before looking at influenza pandemics, avian flu, and swine flu.

This chapter in the Oxford Handbook of Emergency Medicine investigates psychiatry in the emergency department (ED). It provides a glossary of psychiatric terms and reviews the psychiatric interview and mental state examination. It explores dealing with the aggressive patient and safe consultations with potentially violent patients, managing aggression, and emergency tranquillization. It discusses self-harm, assessment of suicide risk, mental health assessment issues, depression, mania, schizophrenia, and complications of psychiatric drugs, as well as Munchausen’s syndrome and medically unexplained symptoms. It investigates how to deal with alcohol abuse, acute alcohol intoxication, alcohol withdrawal, alcohol-related brain injury, and help for alcoholics, as well as drug and substance abuse, compulsory hospitalization, and the Mental Capacity Act.

This chapter in the Oxford Handbook of Emergency Medicine investigates analgesia and anaesthesia in the emergency department (ED). It looks at options for relieving pain, such as the analgesics aspirin, paracetamol, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), morphine and other opioids, Entonox®, and ketamine, and explores analgesia for trauma and other specific situations. It discusses local anaesthesia (LA) and local anaesthetic toxicity, including use of adrenaline (epinephrine) and general principles of local anaesthesia. It explores blocks such as Bier’s block, local anaesthetic nerve blocks, intercostal nerve block, digital nerve block, median and ulnar nerve blocks, radial nerve block at the wrist, dental anaesthesia, nerve blocks of the forehead and ear, fascia iliaca compartment block, femoral nerve block, and nerve blocks at the ankle. It examines sedation, including drugs for intravenous sedation and sedation in children, and discusses general anaesthesia in the emergency department, emergency anaesthesia and rapid sequence induction, difficult intubation, and general anaesthetic drugs.

This chapter in the Oxford Handbook of Emergency Medicine investigates obstetrics and gynaecology in the emergency department (ED). It reviews gynaecological problems, vaginal discharge, contraceptive problems, genital injury, assault and female genital mutilation, gynaecological pain, and vaginal bleeding. It discusses the pregnant patient and explores prescribing, hyperemesis gravidarum, vaginal bleeding, miscarriage, ectopic pregnancy, vaginal bleeding in later pregnancy, abdominal pain, and medical complications of pregnancy. It also reviews emergency normal delivery, obstetric emergencies, trauma and cardiac arrest in pregnancy, and post-partum problems.
