Is diagnostic laparoscopy necessary in the management of left thoracoabdominal stab wounds?
CONCLUSION: Diagnostic laparoscopy is still the gold standard particularly in the ER setting, particularly in the absence of an experienced radiologist for 24 h and when the close monitoring of the patient by the same team cannot be provided.PMID:37681725 | DOI:10.14744/tjtes.2023.33423 (Source: Turkish Journal of Trauma and Emergency Surgery : TJTES)

Prevalence and severity of pediatric emergencies in a German helicopter emergency service: implications for training and service configuration
Conclusions: Critically ill or injured children are infrequent in German HEMS operations. Our findings suggest that the likelihood of HEMS teams encountering such cases is remarkably low. Besides endotracheal intubation, life-saving invasive procedures are seldom necessary. Consequently, we conclude that on-the-job training and mission experience alone are insufficient for acquiring and maintaining the competencies needed to care for critically ill or injured children.What is Known:• Pediatric emergencies are relatively rare in the prehospital setting, but their incidence is higher in helicopter emergency medical service...

Morbidity, mortality, and surgical treatment of secondary spontaneous pneumothorax
CONCLUSION: Large pneumothorax, poor physical performance, and comorbidity are associated with morbidity and mortality. Conservative treatment for small pneumothorax and chest tube for large pneumothorax is the most appropriate initial treatment. Resection of the bullous region through VATS or mini-AT/T is the most appropriate surgical technique.PMID:37563896 | DOI:10.14744/tjtes.2023.20566 (Source: Turkish Journal of Trauma and Emergency Surgery : TJTES)
