They represent 23% of admissions to the Yaounde emergency center (CURY), which is a center exclusively dedicated, since 2014, to emergency care in Yaounde. In the management of trauma brain injuries at CURY, several are operated on. However, to date, no evaluation of these operated patients has yet been made. Goals: The objective of this study was to highlight the prognostic factors in patients operated for TBI at CURY. Methodology: We conducted a descriptive study whose data collection was done retrospectively over 2 years (01 January 2021 to 31 December 2022) at CURY. Data was collected from the registers of operative reports. Results: We enrolled 105 medical reports of patients who were victims of TBI operated on. The male gender predominated with a sex ratio of 3/1. The average age of the patients was 37.5 ± 18.83 years. Public road accidents were the leading cause of TBI in 75.2% of cases. The means of transport of the victims were mostly non-medical 97.1%. 45.7% of patients were admitted in less than 6 hours following injury. The initial clinical evaluation found 45.8% of patients with a Glasgow Coma Score (GCS) between [14, 15], and 13.2% of patients had a GCS 8. The indications for surgery were extradural hematoma (30%), followed by acute subdural hematoma (24%). The major complication was postoperative infection (25%). The mortality rate of the series was 7.9%. Poor prognostic factors were the depth of the coma on admission, advanced age and postoperative complications. Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that most patients operated on for TBI at CURY had a favorable outcome. The poor prognostic factors were the depth of the coma on admission, advanced age, postoperative complications and comorbidities.展开更多

Indeed, the World Health Organization launched the international “High 5S” project to implement medication reconciliation in healthcare facilities to reduce them and ensure patients a safe, high-quality healthcare pathway. Objective: This study aimed to detect medication errors by reconciling drug treatments and assess the relevance and feasibility of this standardized practice within the Medical Emergency Unit of the Teaching Pediatric Hospital of Ouagadougou (Burkina Faso). Methods: Patients whose parents gave their consent at their entrance were enrolled. For each patient, the pharmacy team completed a reconciliation form that included the patient’s usual treatment, which was taken and in progress and received upon admission to the medical emergency unit. Patients’ treatments were reviewed to detect and characterize discrepancies. The data of each form were reported and analyzed using KoboCollect, an Android application. Results: 135 records and 412 medication lines were captured over six weeks. The average time of treatment reconciliation per patient was 57 minutes. One thousand one hundred ninety-eight (1198) intentional discrepancies were detected, of which 6.09% were documented. Seventy-one (71) unintentional discrepancies were collected, including 39 omissions, 24 regimen dosing errors, and 8 pharmaceutical form dosage errors. Forty-nine (49) unintentional discrepancies, or 69.01%, were corrected by formulated pharmaceutical interventions toward physicians. Conclusion: Medical treatment reconciliation during hospital admission is critical because discrepancies can compromise the efficacy and/or safety of the patient’s hospital medication.展开更多

文摘Knowledge graphs,which combine structured representation with semantic modeling,have shown great potential in knowledge expression,causal inference,and automated reasoning,and are widely used in fields such as intelligent question answering,decision support,and fault diagnosis.As high-speed train systems become increasingly intelligent and interconnected,fault patterns have grown more complex and dynamic.Knowledge graphs offer a promising solution to support the structured management and real-time reasoning of fault knowledge,addressing key requirements such as interpretability,accuracy,and continuous evolution in intelligent diagnostic systems.However,conventional knowledge graph construction relies heavily on domain expertise and specialized tools,resulting in high entry barriers for non-experts and limiting their practical application in frontline maintenance scenarios.To address this limitation,this paper proposes a fault knowledge modeling approach for high-speed trains that integrates structured logic diagrams with knowledge graphs.The method employs a seven-layer logic structure—comprising fault name,applicable vehicles,diagnostic logic,signal parameters,verification conditions,fault causes,and emergency measures—to transform unstructured knowledge into a visual and hierarchical representation.A semantic mapping mechanism is then used to automatically convert logic diagrams into machine-interpretable knowledge graphs,enabling dynamic reasoning and knowledge reuse.Furthermore,the proposed method establishes a three-layer architecture—logic structuring,knowledge graph transformation,and dynamic inference—to bridge human-expert logic with machinebased reasoning.Experimental validation and system implementation demonstrate that this approach not only improves knowledge interpretability and inference precision but also significantly enhances modeling efficiency and system maintainability.It provides a scalable and adaptable solution for intelligent operation and maintenance platforms in the high-speed rail domain.
文摘BACKGROUND Appropriate care for individuals who attempt suicide and are admitted to the emergency department(ED)can prevent future suicidal behavior.It is vital to understand their sociodemographic characteristics and the effects of targeted psychological care.AIM To analyze sociodemographic characteristics of suicide attempters treated in the ED and evaluate the efficacy of psychological care.METHODS Data from 239 suicide attempters treated in the ED of the Central Hospital of Enshi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture(Hubei Province,China)between January 2021 and February 2025 were divided into 2:Control(n=108)and psychological care(n=131).The demographic characteristics and effects of the psychological care were analyzed.RESULTS The mean(±SD)age of the 239 patients[114 male(47.7%),125 female(52.3%)]was 26.25±9.3 years,of whom 122(45.2%)were single,117(48.9%)were married,and 106(44.4%)had secondary education.Thirty-eight(15.9%)patients had suicidal intent,with a mean of 1.26±0.59 suicide attempts each.Twenty-two(9.21%)patients had a family history of suicide,while 8(3.34%)had a family history of suicide attempt(s).Before intervention,mean Suicidal Intent Scale scores in the psychological nursing and control groups were 21.57±5.28 and 19.86±5.92,respectively(P>0.05).After 1 month of nursing intervention,the respective scores were 10.09±1.11 and 16.48±0.87(P<0.001);and the re-suicide rates were 11.45%(15/131)and 24.07%(26/108)(P<0.001).CONCLUSION Psychological care significantly reduces suicide risk;EDs should provide comprehensive mental health care.

文摘BACKGROUND:Large language models(LLMs)are being explored for disease prediction and diagnosis;however,their effi cacy for early sepsis identifi cation in emergency departments(EDs)remains unexplored.This study aims to evaluate MedGo,a novel medical LLM,as a decision-support tool for clinicians managing patients with suspected sepsis.METHODS:This retrospective study included anonymized medical records of 203 patients(mean age 79.9±10.2 years)with confi rmed sepsis from a tertiary hospital ED between January 2023 and January 2024.MedGo performance across nine sepsis-related assessment tasks was compared with that of two junior(<3 years of experience)and two senior(>10 years of experience)ED physicians.Assessments were scored on a 5-point Likert scale for accuracy,comprehensiveness,readability,and case-analysis skills.RESULTS:MedGo demonstrated diagnostic performance comparable to that of senior physicians across most metrics,achieving a median Likert score of 4 in accuracy,comprehensiveness,and readability.MedGo signifi cantly outperformed junior physicians(P<0.001 for accuracy and case-analysis skills).MedGo assistance significantly enhanced both junior(P<0.001)and senior(P<0.05)physicians'diagnostic accuracy.Notably,MedGo-assisted junior physicians achieved accuracy levels comparable to those of unassisted senior physicians.MedGo maintained consistent performance across varying sepsis severities.CONCLUSION:MedGo shows significant diagnostic efficacy for sepsis and effectively supports clinicians in the ED,particularly enhancing junior physicians’performance.Our study highlights the potential of MedGo as a valuable decision-support tool for sepsis management,paving the way for specialized sepsis AI models.
文摘The rapid evolution of Fifth-Generation(5G)networks and the strategic development of Sixth-Generation(6G)technologies have significantly advanced the implementation of air-ground integrated networks with seamless coverage.Unmanned Aerial Vehicles(UAVs),serving as high-mobility aerial platforms,are extensively utilized to enhance coverage in long-distance emergency communication scenarios.The resource-constrained communication environments in emergencies by classifying UAVs into swarm UAVs and relay UAVs as aerial communication nodes is inversitgated.A horizontal deployment strategy for swarm UAVs is formulated through K-means clustering algorithm optimization,while a vertical deployment scheme is established using convex optimization methods.The minimum-path trajectory planning for relay UAVs is optimized via the Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO)algorithm,enhancing communication reliability between UAV swarms and terrestrial base stations.A three-dimensional heterogeneous network architecture is realized by modeling spatial multi-hop relay links.Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed joint UAV relay optimization framework outperforms conventional algorithms in both coverage performance and relay capability during video stream transmission,achieving significant improvements in coverage enhancement and relay efficiency.This work provides technical foundations for constructing high-reliability air-ground cooperative systems in emergency communications.

文摘Shotcrete is one of the common solutions for shallow sliding.It works by forming a protective layer with high strength and cementing the loose soil particles on the slope surface to prevent shallow sliding.However,the solidification time of conventional cement paste is long when shotcrete is used to treat cohesionless soil landslide.The idea of reinforcing slope with polyurethane solidified soil(i.e.,mixture of polyurethane and sand)was proposed.Model tests and finite element analysis were carried out to study the effectiveness of the proposed new method on the emergency treatment of cohesionless soil landslide.Surcharge loading on the crest of the slope was applied step by step until landslide was triggered so as to test and compare the stability and bearing capacity of slope models with different conditions.The simulated slope displacements were relatively close to the measured results,and the simulated slope deformation characteristics were in good agreement with the observed phenomena,which verifies the accuracy of the numerical method.Under the condition of surcharge loading on the crest of the slope,the unreinforced slope slid when the surcharge loading exceeded 30 k Pa,which presented a failure mode of local instability and collapse at the shallow layer of slope top.The reinforced slope remained stable even when the surcharge loading reached 48 k Pa.The displacement of the reinforced slope was reduced by more than 95%.Overall,this study verifies the effectiveness of polyurethane in the emergency treatment of cohesionless soil landslide and should have broad application prospects in the field of geological disasters concerning the safety of people's live.

文摘Typhoons can cause large-area blackouts or partial outages of distribution networks.We define a partial outage state in the distribution network as a gray state and propose a gray-start strategy and two-stage distribution network emergency recovery framework.A phase-space reconstruction and stacked integrated model for predicting wind and photovoltaic generation during typhoon disasters is proposed in the first stage.This provides guidance for second-stage post-disaster emergency recovery scheduling.The emergency recovery scheduling model is established in the second stage,and this model is supported by a thermal power-generating unit,mobile emergency generators,and distributed generators.Distributed generation includes wind power generation,photovoltaics,fuel cells,etc.Simultaneously,we con-sider the gray-start based on the pumped storage unit to be an important first step in the emergency recovery strategy.This model is val-idated on the improved IEEE 33 node system,which utilizes data from the 2022 super typhoon“Muifa”in Zhoushan,Zhejiang,China.Simulations indicate the superiority of a gray start with a pumped storage unit and the proposed emergency recovery strategy.
文摘Emergency department nurses face severe occupational stress leading to anxiety,depression,and burnout,which significantly impair their well-being and patientcare quality.This narrative review examined the role of mindfulness-based stress reduction(MBSR)in addressing these challenges.Rooted in nonjudgmental present-moment awareness,MBSR enhances emotional regulation and reduces psychological distress by fostering adaptive coping strategies.Studies have demonstrated its efficacy in lowering anxiety,depressive symptoms,and emotional exhaustion,while improving workplace well-being,empathy,and job satisfaction.Mechanistically,MBSR improves interoceptive awareness and autonomic balance,as evidenced by physiological markers such as heart rate variability.However,gaps remain in long-term efficacy assessments,personalized interventions,and integration with multidisciplinary approaches.Future research should prioritize tailored biomarker-driven programs,longitudinal studies,and scalable implementation strategies in high-stress clinical settings.This review underscores MBSR’s potential as a sustainable,evidence-based tool to enhance emergency department nurses’mental health and professional performance,advocating for broader adoption and further refinement of its practical applications.
文摘Introduction: Head injuries constitute a public health problem in Cameroon and everywhere else in the world. They represent 23% of admissions to the Yaounde emergency center (CURY), which is a center exclusively dedicated, since 2014, to emergency care in Yaounde. In the management of trauma brain injuries at CURY, several are operated on. However, to date, no evaluation of these operated patients has yet been made. Goals: The objective of this study was to highlight the prognostic factors in patients operated for TBI at CURY. Methodology: We conducted a descriptive study whose data collection was done retrospectively over 2 years (01 January 2021 to 31 December 2022) at CURY. Data was collected from the registers of operative reports. Results: We enrolled 105 medical reports of patients who were victims of TBI operated on. The male gender predominated with a sex ratio of 3/1. The average age of the patients was 37.5 ± 18.83 years. Public road accidents were the leading cause of TBI in 75.2% of cases. The means of transport of the victims were mostly non-medical 97.1%. 45.7% of patients were admitted in less than 6 hours following injury. The initial clinical evaluation found 45.8% of patients with a Glasgow Coma Score (GCS) between [14, 15], and 13.2% of patients had a GCS 8. The indications for surgery were extradural hematoma (30%), followed by acute subdural hematoma (24%). The major complication was postoperative infection (25%). The mortality rate of the series was 7.9%. Poor prognostic factors were the depth of the coma on admission, advanced age and postoperative complications. Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that most patients operated on for TBI at CURY had a favorable outcome. The poor prognostic factors were the depth of the coma on admission, advanced age, postoperative complications and comorbidities.
文摘Introduction and Problem Statement: Many medication errors occur during the community and hospital transition. Indeed, the World Health Organization launched the international “High 5S” project to implement medication reconciliation in healthcare facilities to reduce them and ensure patients a safe, high-quality healthcare pathway. Objective: This study aimed to detect medication errors by reconciling drug treatments and assess the relevance and feasibility of this standardized practice within the Medical Emergency Unit of the Teaching Pediatric Hospital of Ouagadougou (Burkina Faso). Methods: Patients whose parents gave their consent at their entrance were enrolled. For each patient, the pharmacy team completed a reconciliation form that included the patient’s usual treatment, which was taken and in progress and received upon admission to the medical emergency unit. Patients’ treatments were reviewed to detect and characterize discrepancies. The data of each form were reported and analyzed using KoboCollect, an Android application. Results: 135 records and 412 medication lines were captured over six weeks. The average time of treatment reconciliation per patient was 57 minutes. One thousand one hundred ninety-eight (1198) intentional discrepancies were detected, of which 6.09% were documented. Seventy-one (71) unintentional discrepancies were collected, including 39 omissions, 24 regimen dosing errors, and 8 pharmaceutical form dosage errors. Forty-nine (49) unintentional discrepancies, or 69.01%, were corrected by formulated pharmaceutical interventions toward physicians. Conclusion: Medical treatment reconciliation during hospital admission is critical because discrepancies can compromise the efficacy and/or safety of the patient’s hospital medication.
