Abstract:

Introduction/Innovation Concept: There is a paucity of peer-reviewed works investigating the History of Emergency Medicine (EM) in Canada, and none examining a single centre. This study analyzed the academic and clinical evolution of EM in the City of Ottawa from its origins to present. Methods: The study comprised primary and secondary historical research and an oral history methodology. A literature review was performed on the following databases: PubMed, Medline, EMBASE, JSTOR, Web of Science, Historical Abstracts; five medical history journals were also searched.

Abstract:

In Ottawa on September 20, 2012, the Canadian Academy of Health Sciences held a forum entitled, ‘End of Life Care: the Last 100 Days’. Following an opening plenary by Dr. Daren Heyland, presentations and discussions ensued, highlighting recent research, current controversies, and future directions to improve end-of-life care in Canada [1]. Three articles in this issue of Clinical Investigative Medicine build on presentations from that day.

Dr. Labarge (yes, it was honorary and a title she tended not to use, but she received three and they were certainly well merited) was part of that remarkable efflorescence of Medieval Studies that distinguished the Canadian academy in the 1970s and 1980s.

Abstract:

Independent scholarly writing on the Middle Ages began as a dignified amateur endeavour in, and in a few instances before, the eighteenth century, although a bemused reading public has often marvelled at why anyone with a superior education and leisure would bother. For this reason, amateur scholars have often felt it necessary to justify their choice of a scholarly pursuit, and this continues down to our own day. Women scholars like Margaret Wade Labarge (1916-2009), whom we celebrate here, often had little choice but to pursue their scholarly interests independently because in her day academ

Abstract:

Background: Patients presenting to the Emergency Department (ED) with unmet palliative care needs are often admitted to hospital and this can be a pivotal point in their subsequent health care journey. Literature from the United States supports the integration of palliative care resources in the ED and to our knowledge, this has yet to be done in a Canadian setting. Aim Statement: To develop, implement, and evaluate a model to support patients presenting to the ED with unmet palliative care needs. Measures &amp; Design: A pilot project was implemented in one campus of the ED at a tertiary

Abstract:

IntroductionTwo major global health challenges are the rapidly ageing population and the high prevalence of obesity in all age groups. Older adults are also susceptible to age-related loss of muscle strength, termed dynapaenia. The co-occurrence of both obesity and dynapaenia, termed dynapaenic obesity (DO), has been associated with poorer health outcomes and increased healthcare usage compared with either state alone. The purpose of this systematic review is to quantify the prevalence and incidence of DO in older adult populations, and to explore the association between DO and health outcomes

Abstract:

IntroductionThe introduction of multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) has enabled enhanced risk stratification for men at risk of prostate cancer, through accurate prebiopsy identification of clinically significant disease. However, approximately 10%–20% of significant prostate cancer may be missed on mpMRI. It appears that the genomic basis of lesion visibility or invisibility on mpMRI may have key implications for prognosis and treatment. Here, we describe a protocol for the first systematic review and novel bioinformatic analysis of the genomic basis of prostate cancer conspicuity on mpMRI.Methods an

Introduction: In June 2019, The Ottawa Hospital launched the Epic EHR system, which transitioned all departments from a primarily paper-based system to an exclusively electronic system using a one-day “big bang” approach. All Emergency Physicians (EP) received online module training, personalization sessions, and at-the-elbow support during the transition. We sought to evaluate EP satisfaction with the implementation process and the system's impact on clinical practice in a tertiary care academic emergency medicine setting.

Abstract Background. Endocrine therapy (ET) is the mainstay treatment for hormonal receptor positive (HR+) breast cancer. ET non-compliance and non-persistence vary from 30 to 70% and are associated with reduced disease-free and overall survival. ET side effects are an important cause of non-adherence. In clinical practice, there are anecdotal reports that time of the day at which ET is taken may affect ET side effects and compliance. However, we are not aware of any high-quality studies supporting this practice. In other fields of medicine, there is evidence to suggest that the time of the da

Introduction With over 1 million units of blood transfused each year in Canada, their use has a significant clinical and economic impact on our health system. Adequate screening of blood donors is important to ensure the safety and clinical benefit of blood products. Some adverse transfusion reactions have been shown to be related to donor factors (eg, lung injury), whereas other adverse outcomes have been theoretically related to donor factors (mortality and infection). Our clinical trial will test whether male donor blood leads to a greater benefit for transfusion recipients compared with fe

While the risk of vertical HCV transmission has been well established, the impact of HCV on pregnancy outcomes are equivocal, with some studies reporting risks of preterm birth, low gestational weight, gestational diabetes and hypertension, while other studies report no such risks. With the shift of the HCV treatment landscape to more effective, tolerable and shorter medications, understanding pregnancy outcomes of women living with HCV are an important consideration in order to provide a baseline from which to consi

Transfusion decision-making in surgery is complex and frequently informed by haemoglobin (Hgb) measurement in the operating room. Point-of-care testing for haemoglobin (POCT-Hgb) is increasingly relied on given its simplicity and rapid provision of results. POCT-Hgb devices lack adequate validation in the operative setting, particularly for Hgb values within the transfusion zone (60–100 g/L).
