Study objective We describe the operators, techniques, success, and adverse event rates of
adult emergency department (ED) intubation through multicenter prospective surveillance. …

Objectives: This article explores the potential of discrete event simulation (DES) methods to
advance system‐level investigation of emergency department (ED) operations. To this end, …

Objective: Emergency department (ED) intubation personnel and practices have changed
dramatically in recent decades, but have been described only in single-center studies. We …

The aims of this study were: To describe the prevalence of Emergency Department (ED)
airway management failures requiring rescue maneuvers, to describe successful rescue …

OBJECTIVE: We hypothesize that the number of patients who leave without being seen is
correlated with the simple-to-use National Emergency Department Overcrowding Scale (…

We describe the prevalence, primary indications and immediate complications of emergency
cricothyrotomy (cric) techniques, in a single institution’s Emergency Department (ED) and …

This report describes a novel sonographic protocol for the evaluation of the undifferentiated
hypotensive patient. This protocol combines components of 3 sonographic applications: free …

In this study, a discrete-event simulation approach was used to model Emergency Department’s
(ED) patient flow to investigate the effect of inpatient boarding on the ED efficiency in …

STUDY OBJECTIVE: Glottic visualization with video is superior to direct laryngoscopy in
controlled operating room studies. However, glottic exposure with video laryngoscopy has not …

Background High-fidelity patient simulation has been praised for its ability to recreate lifelike
training conditions. The degree to which high fidelity simulation elicits acute emotional and …
