do you have this power point slides? i would like to review this with our ems staff. great presentation. doing each slide would give us a chance to go over things and discuss as a group. Thanks,
+Eva -GFR10 Sorry for the delay, I finally got around to adding the slide set to EMin5.com (emin5.com/2015/08/05/approach-to-chest-pain/) - if you scroll down past the video the slides are there. Thanks so much for the suggestion!
Why do you put all those cardiac causes as deadly? Pericarditis might predispose you to pericardial effusion but not always, especially not if it isn't recurring. Likewise, Myocarditis might cause angina in an older person but again not always. And neither pericarditis nor myocarditis are nearly as deadly as pulmonary embolism, Myocardial infarction, and pericardial effusion Esophageal rupture isn't deadly in its own right either unless an artery ruptures. there are lots of ways to get around an injured esophagus that isn't working correctly(NG tube OG tube, I don't know if this exists but esophageal bypass, esophagus transplant, esophageal surgery)
Boerhaaves is deadly because when the esophagus ruptures, it communicates with the mediastinum, therfore GI contents spill into the mediastinum, leading to necrosis, infection and sepsis. Mortality is 16-50% if there is delay in diagnosis and antibiotics are not started. Therefore it is an emergency. This is not about the esophagus injury but the communication with the mediastinum that makes it dangerous.
This information was very informative and captured the key points in assessing patients presenting with chest pain
these videos for medical students are great , and the slides are very well put together . Please continue to keep making these videos.
Thanks so much for the feedback!
Excellent quality video. Short and sweet.
