In 1977 the Department of Anesthesiology of the Medical College of Virginia coordinated a compulsory 72-hour course for first-year medical students fulfilling all requirements of the Department of Transportation and leading to eligibility for certification of the medical student as an Emergency Medical Technician (EMT-A). We describe the methodology and content of this course, as well as problems encountered and lessons learned. This sound foundation in emergency care concepts will enable the medical student to develop greater competence in critical skills during the clinical years.

We used the external rotation method for reducing anterior shoulder dislocations on 85 consecutive patients seen in our emergency department during a one-year period. In relatively inexperienced hands, the external rotation method was successful on first attempt in 80% of cases. There were no complications attributable to the technique itself. We feel that it is a successful, easy, and atraumatic method of achieving reduction in both first occurrence and recurrent anterior shoulder dislocations.

Although emergency department observation-holding units have been shown to be effective in limiting hospitalizations and improving the accuracy of disposition, the possibility of adverse outcome following discharge from such units has not been addressed. To establish the safety of the unit, a five-month prospective study of all patients admitted to this area was carried out and included long-term follow-up. There were 442 patients admitted. Of these, 78% were discharged improved. Complications in the unit were minimal and there were no deaths. Long-term follow-up revealed four deaths (1%) and four patients (1%) who had complicated hospitalizations. Diagnosis, age, patient condition, and time of admission to the unit were predictive of the need for inpatient hospitalization. We conclude that the observation-holding unit, with appropriate supervision, represents a safe alternative disposition for selected emergency patients.
