🫁 Is the time to anticoagulation associated with mortality among patients with PE? Put your guess in the comments below! 💬
EMA has another PE paper to digest from the The Journal of Thrombosis and Hemostasis (JTH) this month. Timing is everything in treating a PE, right? Mortality matters, but did these authors get it right? Did they give us something we need to change our practice?
🎧 Tune into this FREE EMA chapter on the EM:RAP app to hear Mike and Sanjay dissect and analyze the paper and see if it’s a practice changer or not. 🤔

WELLEN’S SYNDROME: This is the patient you do NOT send for a stress test. They have an unstable plaque and stress testing them can send them over the edge to a full blown STEMI and cardiac arrest.
•
Recent angina + a characteristic Wellens pattern should raise concern for critical LAD disease, even when the patient feels better.
•
Recognize the pattern. Get urgent cardiology involvement. Stress testing can precipitate an MI.
Send this to someone starting their next ED rotation.

Staring at an abnormal T wave? Give yourself six questions.
T — Territory: Which leads are involved? W — Width and shape: Broad and bulky, or narrow and sharp? A — Activation: What is the QRS doing? V — Vital signs and context: What’s happening with the patient? E — Evolution: Is the ECG changing over time? S — Supporting data: What do ultrasound, troponins, and the rest of the workup show?
A structure for turning pattern recognition into clinical reasoning.
Save this as your T-wave review checklist.

Could a simple skin incision relieve tension pneumomediastinum? Chris breaks down the physiology behind the "blow hole" procedure, why it's considered a last-resort temporizing measure, and what the definitive treatment should be. by @docreilles

Before you call it Wellens, check lead III.
Anterior T-wave inversions can appear in both ACS and pulmonary embolism. When lead III and V1 are also inverted, PE and right-heart strain deserve a closer look—especially with dyspnea, hypoxia, or syncope.
Use the distribution to sharpen your differential. An ECG alone cannot confirm or exclude PE.
Which finding would move PE higher on YOUR list?

🎥 Check out this short clip from Ultrasound Basics: Bladder Volume
Get a practical, bedside approach to evaluating the bladder for urinary retention, obstruction, and catheter dysfunction. 🩺
Learn how to:
🔹 Acquire transverse and sagittal views
🔹 Take the three key measurements
🔹 Let the machine calculate bladder volume or calculate it by hand when needed

Key reminders: 📌
📏 Measure length, width, and height at maximal bladder diameter
🧮 Use the 0.7 formula when calculating manually
🎈 Confirm Foley balloon position in the sagittal plane
🚽 Consider a recently voided bladder when it appears small or absent
Build your ultrasound skills and gain confidence with this practical bedside technique. 🔊

🩸 Are you prepared to identify leukemia in the low-acuity setting? If not, this segment can literally save a life. Very treatable if caught early: acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common form found in children and young adults.
🎙️ Gita and Chris Merritt have put together a comprehensive look at this illness from pathophysiology, presentation, physical exam, workup, and escalation of care. This segment 🎧 has what you need to be better prepared to make this diagnosis and potentially save lives.

If you've ever diagnosed this early and made a difference, share that story below. We’d love to hear some of the positive stories within medicine. 💬
