Self-help strategies and local support services are also recommended.
Understanding mental illness final
Mental illness is common and can take many forms. Approximately 1 in 5 Canadians will experience a mental illness in their lifetime. Common illnesses include mood disorders like depression and bipolar disorder, which affect around 10-12% of the population, anxiety disorders (12%), and schizophrenia (1%). Mental illnesses are biological conditions that affect brain chemistry and functioning. They can be chronic but are treatable. Common symptoms vary by illness but may include changes in mood, thoughts, behavior, sleep, appetite and energy levels. Myths persist around mental illness being a sign of weakness or dangerousness, but in reality anyone can develop a mental illness and people with mental illness are more likely to harm themselves than others.

Emergency Nursing of the Obese Patient
The document discusses emergency nursing considerations for obese patients. It covers key topics such as:
- The pathophysiological effects of obesity including impacts to the cardiovascular, respiratory, gastrointestinal and other body systems.
- Critical care management challenges such as difficult intubation, ventilation needs, positioning patients, and vascular access.
- Trauma management implications like atypical injury patterns, assessment difficulties, and hemorrhage risk.
- Pharmacological considerations as obese patients often require different drug dosing than non-obese patients.
The document emphasizes preparing for the unique needs of obese emergency patients, such as having proper equipment available and prioritizing staff safety during patient handling and transport.
Street Drug Update 2013
This document discusses various street drugs presenting to emergency departments, including synthetic cannabinoids, designer amphetamines, and prescription drug abuse. It provides three case studies of patients presenting after using synthetic cannabinoids, mephedrone, and excessive nurofen plus abuse. For each drug, it covers symptoms, management in the emergency department, and complications. The key messages are that street drugs are continually evolving but present similar management challenges, and to consider medical causes for any unexpected presentations.
Time Critical Procedures Part 2
This document discusses several time-critical procedures for trauma patients including emergency resuscitative thoracotomy, pericardial tamponade, tension pneumothorax, and peri-mortem c-section. It provides indications, contraindications, techniques, and outcomes for each procedure. Case studies are presented and steps for performing the procedures like opening the chest and internal cardiac compressions are outlined.

Resuscitating the Hypotensive Patient
This document discusses the resuscitation of hypotensive patients through fluid resuscitation and vasoactive medications. It defines shock, outlines the epidemiology and diagnosis of shock, and explains how to assess shocked patients both physically and through laboratory tests like lactate levels. Fluid resuscitation is presented as the initial treatment, followed by vasoactive agents if fluids fail to improve the patient's condition. Examples of inotropes, vasopressors, and push dose pressors are provided, along with their indications and mechanisms of action. Finally, case studies demonstrate the application of specific vasoactive medications in anaphylaxis, sepsis, post-intubation hypotension, and cardiogenic shock.
Ventilator Alarm Checklist
This document provides checklists for responding to common ventilator alarms and troubleshooting a crashing ventilated patient. For high airway pressures, possible causes include a tube in the right main bronchus, bronchospasm, mucous plugs, and pneumothorax. For low minute volumes, possible causes are an endotracheal tube cuff deflation allowing an air leak or chest wounds allowing air to escape. The checklist for a crashing ventilated patient follows the acronym D.O.P.E.S. to identify potential problems, then D.O.T.T.S. to address them, such as checking tube position or ventilator settings.
Triage basics
Presentation on the basics of Triage for the Emergency Nurse working in Australian Emergency Department.
Medico-Legal Issues at Triage
This document discusses several important medico-legal issues that triage nurses need to be aware of, including: obtaining informed consent, duty of care, negligence, documentation, confidentiality, and preserving forensic evidence. The triage nurse must be knowledgeable, skilled, educated, professional and accountable. They use tools like the Australasian Triage Scale, physiological discriminators, and local policies/protocols. Triage involves assessing patients in a chaotic environment with many factors that can increase risk. Proper documentation, obtaining consent, maintaining confidentiality and adhering to the standard of care are important to avoid legal issues like charges of negligence or battery.
Managing Spider Bites in the ED
Redback spiders are the most common cause of spider envenomation in Australia, resulting in 5-10,000 bites per year. While the symptoms can be distressing, including inconsolable crying in children and priapism, redback bites are rarely life-threatening. Funnel-web spiders are the most dangerous spiders in Australia; their bites can cause symptoms ranging from local pain and swelling to autonomic effects like sweating and vomiting as well as cardiac or neurological issues. While white-tailed spider bites are often blamed, the venom has not been proven to cause tissue necrosis. Most spider bites result in only localized symptoms, but funnel-web bites require antivenom treatment in the emergency department.
Snake Bite Management for the ED Nurse
This document provides guidance for emergency department nurses on snake bite management in Australia. It discusses the most common poisonous snakes found in Australia and their characteristic clinical envenoming syndromes. It emphasizes the importance of a thorough risk assessment, physical exam, and investigations to determine if envenoming has occurred. The document also reviews pressure immobilization bandaging techniques, indications for antivenom administration, and supportive care for the different clinical envenoming syndromes caused by Australia's major snake groups: brown snakes, tiger snakes, mulga/black snakes, taipans, and death adders.
The Four-Hour Rule- Lesson's Learnt from the WA Experience
The document discusses the four-hour rule implemented in Western Australian tertiary public hospitals in 2009. It aimed to improve patient flow and quality of care by requiring all patients be admitted, discharged or transferred within four hours of presenting to the emergency department. Initial targets were set at 85% by 2010 and 95% by 2011. While the rule has helped reduce overcrowding and access block, ongoing challenges include increasing patient presentations and acuity without a rise in hospital beds. Lessons learned indicate factors like patient navigators and assessment units help flow, while issues like isolation rooms, paperwork and ramping impede it. Sustainability remains a challenge moving forward.
Best Practice in Sepsis
Sepsis is a life-threatening condition that occurs when a localized infection spreads through the bloodstream, producing an uncontrolled immune response. It is a major public health problem associated with high mortality. Early recognition, screening, and time-critical treatment are important to combat sepsis but are often lacking. The document outlines interventions for septic patients including administering oxygen, collecting blood cultures, giving IV antibiotics and fluids, monitoring lactate levels and urine output. It discusses approaches to respiratory support, fluid resuscitation, vasopressors and inotropes, appropriate antibiotic selection, source control and supportive care.
Foam in review
FOAMed in 2012 focused on airway management, checklists, and optimizing resuscitation room performance. Key topics included new airway devices, using checklists to guide procedures like intubation, and approaches like the "Vortex" to manage difficult airways. FOAMed resources highlighted evidence-based practices and innovative techniques to improve patient care and guide the future of emergency medicine.
Excited delirium syndrome
This document describes a case of excited delirium syndrome (EDS) and provides information about the condition. A man experiencing EDS required 6 people to restrain him and was unresponsive to sedation. He later went into asystole and died despite resuscitation efforts. EDS is characterized by acute agitation, exceptional strength, and hyperthermia. It can be triggered by drug use or mental illness and often involves interactions with law enforcement. Rapid sedation is critical to changing the downward trajectory and preventing fatal complications like cardiac arrest.
Resuscitating the injured brain
Emergency nursing talk on resuscitating the injured brain- focusing on the little things- that make a difference to morbidity and mortality.
Post Cardiac Arrest Syndrome
1) Therapeutic hypothermia, early defibrillation, and high-quality chest compressions are the three evidence-based approaches that help cardiac arrest patients.
2) The case study describes a 68-year-old man who suffered cardiac arrest but achieved return of spontaneous circulation. He was treated with therapeutic hypothermia, circulatory support, and taken for cardiac catheterization, resulting in successful recovery.
3) Therapeutic hypothermia aims to reduce reperfusion injury and improves outcomes after cardiac arrest by slowing the pathological cascade through induced hypothermia between 32-34°C for 12-24 hours.
