First10EM Journal Club: January 2023

Jan 31, 2023

This month we try to answer some of the big questions in ED practice... we do not necessarily succeed...

• How much electricity should we use in refractory VF?
• Should we suck clots out of legs?
• Should you put Tegaderm on eyeballs?
• Is the HEART score valid? Are any clinical decision tools really what we think?
• What happens if you discharge patients with low troponin rise?
• Should you evert the edges of the wounds?
• Can we send kids home with abnormal vital signs?
• Does kissing minor toddler boo-boos help?
• Do men with smaller penises drive fast cars?
