We conducted a retrospective chart review of all visits and referrals to one drunken center in an ED between January and December 2019. Adults aged over 18 years admitted to the drunken center with a ...
Approximately 89 % were male, around 30.4 % of the patients with acute alcohol intoxication were homeless. Approximately 46 % of patients were Medicaid or non-insured. Approximately 74.2 % of the pati...
About half of alcohol intoxicated patients who visited ED were vulnerable, and they visited the ED due to the problem of less urgent or non-urgent status of triage. Sobering places, not ED, and connec...
We assessed long-term mortality and its association with chronic alcohol-related diseases in patients admitted to the emergency department (ED) because of acute alcoholic intoxication (AAI). A retrosp...
Cervical spinal (c-spine) injuries range greatly in severity from minor ligamentous injuries to osteoligamentous instability with spinal cord injuries. Initial evaluation begins with stabilization as ...
This study aimed to assess the frequency of computed tomography (CT) c-spine scans ordered for patients presenting with alcohol intoxication to the emergency department (ED), the timing of the studies...
In this retrospective medical record review, all clinically alcohol-intoxicated patients presenting to two academic EDs were included. Overall demographic characteristics, time to order of CT imaging,...
There were 8008 patient visits included in the study. Of these visits, 5 patients scanned in ≤3 h had acute findings on CT scan and no patients with a deferred timing of CT scan after patients metabol...
This study's results suggest that it is a safe clinical practice to defer CT imaging for patients presenting to the ED with alcohol intoxication and low suspicion for c-spine injury per history and ex...
Patients with ethanol dependence may consume vanilla extract for the high alcohol content....
A 42-year-old male with ethanol dependence who developed status epilepticus, severe anion gap metabolic acidosis and a hyperosmolar non-ketotic coma after ingestion of 600 mL vanilla essence. He was f...
Glycerol is traditionally thought to be a nontoxic alcohol, but this represents a severe case of glycerol toxicity requiring treatment with dialysis. It may represent an emerging or underdiagnosed cli...
Russia suffers from high alcohol-related mortality. Most forensic autopsies in Russia include blood alcohol tests, but a systematic analysis of these data has never been conducted for children's death...
We performed an analysis of juvenile mortality using autopsy reports from the Moscow Region Bureau of Forensic Medical Examination from January 1, 2009, to December 31, 2018....
Despite a decrease in incidence ( Rs = -0.661), the number of cases of alcohol intoxication in minors was still high. The mean age of children in our study was 14.77 years (95% confidence interval [CI...
A systematic study of alcohol in forensic autopsy shows that the number of children who die with alcohol intoxication is high. Teenagers are the predominant age group experiencing alcohol intoxication...
Alcohol intoxication is a known risk factor for motor vehicle collisions. We hypothesize ethanol intoxication increases the risk of bladder injury and surgical repair, especially at higher blood alcoh...
We identified all patients involved in motor vehicle collisions from the National Trauma Data Bank from 2017-2019. Patients were categorized into an intoxication and intoxication negative group. Varia...
We identified 594,484 patients and 97,831 (16.5%) had a positive alcohol screen. Patients in the intoxication group were more likely to be intoxicated with other substances (32.8% vs 14.6%,...
Alcohol intoxication is independently associated with increased risk of bladder injury and subsequent bladder surgical repair following motor vehicle collisions. Trauma providers should have a high in...
Background: Alcohol consumption by adolescents is responsible for a number of adverse health and social outcomes. Despite the well-established effect of alcohol use on the development of alcoholic liv...
The onset of alcohol use during adolescence is associated with concurrent and subsequent related problems. Research on drinking contexts that underly these key first-time experiences and how they diff...
A mixed-methods approach was used to survey and interview adolescents who reported lifetime drinking. Survey responses from 471 participants were analyzed using multilevel multinomial and logistic reg...
After controlling for demographics, initiation of HED and intoxication, compared to initiation of a whole drink, were more likely to occur when more close friends are present and when those close frie...
The quantitative and qualitative findings revealed several parallels as well as aspects that differ, enriching our understanding of early drinking contexts. Results highlight the importance of conside...
