CT SCAN in Emergency Room

CT SCAN BRAIN (Non-Contrast)

Hello! I am an MD Emergency Medicine Resident and in this subject you need to have a very good idea about the anatomy of brain in CT Scan along with various abnormal pathologies.. because you may need to take vital decisions with the plate/film, before the report reaches the ED.
Emergency Medicine is a rapidly developing branch which requires skills and acumen.
If you like them I will upload all the slides one by one..in a series

SALSA Trial

The "Slow Continuous Infusion Therapies of Hypertonic Saline for Patients With Symptomatic Hyponatremia:  The SALSA Randomized Clinical Trial" published in JAMA, is a significant clinical trial that specifically investigated the use of slow continuous infusion therapies of hypertonic saline with fast bolus replacement, for patients with symptomatic hyponatremia.  Background:   Symptomatic hyponatremia is a condition in which patients have low sodium levels in the blood, leading to neurological symptoms and potentially life-threatening complications. Rapid correction of sodium levels is necessary in such cases to alleviate symptoms and prevent harm. Objective:   The SALSA trial aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of two different strategies for correcting symptomatic hyponatremia using hypertonic saline solutions.  Methods: The study was a randomized clinical trial involving patients with symptomatic hyponatremia. Participants were divided into two groups:  Bolus Therapy G
