We studied acute migraine prescribing in our rural hospital cf urban research. Opioid & imaging rates were lower (-19.4+-5.9%), similar NSAIDs/IV hydration. Contextual differences impact prescribing patterns. Training/medications/investigations/wait times pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40170326/
Children with non-accidental ED injuries have increased risk of future death. Our study triangulates data from 1,469 px to confirm if injury, poisoning or burns were true physical abuse. Screening lowered hospitalisations, improved safety & documentation. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/17…

Lots of what we learnt about mastitis management has changed. Heat, pumping & massage are out, antibiotics equivocal. Updated @aafp guidelines emphasise ice, hydration, nsaids, feeding technique, behavioural interventions to minimise breast pumps. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39172675/
Low acuity paediatric ed presentations can strain resources. 2 yr study of 6881 infants shows factors associated & parental perceptions of child vulnerability. We should reduce barriers to community care Mon-Tues 10am-2pm as 82% present on weekdays & 70% during office hours.
How many opioid tablets do patients utilise upon discharge from the ED? Study of 2240 patients with acute pain condition consumed median of 5 tabs of 5 mg MEq during 2 subsequent weeks. 8 tabs for renal colic/abdo pain, 24 tabs for fractures.2/3rds unused cmaj.ca/content/196/25…
On evening shifts we should prioritise geriatric patient admissions. Study of adults> 75yrs in French EDs higher in-hospital mortality, longer admission & more adverse events in ED overnight v ward tf before midnight. jamanetwork.com/journals/jamai…
Our new paper in @CMAJ highlights five things to know about exercise as a treatment for depression. cmaj.ca/content/196/17…
Dry eye update! Drs should advise use of OTC artificial tears > 6x a day as exposure to preservatives can cause toxic conjunctivitis and make things worse! Ointment at bed is best, increases contact time. Assess for evaporative v tear deficiency subtypes jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/…
UK study demonstrates non-antibiotic preventative treatment for recurrent UTI not inferior to guideline daily low dose prophylaxis. Abx group had higher resistance. These meds work by being metabolised to bactericidal formaldehyde in distal renal tubules. bmj.com/content/376/bm…
Happy to read this NZ retrospective study of 347 subarachnoid haemorrhages suggesting possible extension of CT timing to to 24hr from headache. Rule out aneurysmal SAH, sensitivity 100%. @sineadtaylor emj.bmj.com/content/39/11/…
Heartbreaking news
What are the cancer risks of CT scans in children? Taiwanese study from @CMAJ of 7807 cases of tumour, leukaemia, lymphoma matched with controls concludes exposure to a single CT scan was not associated with increased risk. 4 or more = significant risk. cmaj.ca/content/195/16…
NEW: we need to talk about NHS staff retention. At a time when Britain’s healthcare system is acutely short of workers, *1 in 7* UK-trained doctors are practising overseas. No other developed country is like this, which immediately tells you there’s a problem. Let’s dig deeper:
Spot on.. 'significantly increasing medium density housing and existing suburbs that are well served by public infrastructure'. Need to make sure infrastructure sheet public services in these areas are maintained and developed in line with population growth.
