October 2016’s Primary Survey

Simon Carley is on his own this time, talking through the highlights of the October 2016's EMJ. Among the highlights are the low number of women presenting at emergency medicine conferences, PERC rule, triage tools and paramedics' experiences of end-of-life care decisions. The discussed papers: "Are there too few women presenting at emergency medicine conferences?", "A retrospective analysis of the combined use of PERC rule and Wells score to exclude pulmonary embolism in the Emergency Department", "One-two-triage: validation and reliability of a novel triage system for low-resource settings", "Paramedics' experiences of end-of-life care decision making with regard to nursing home residents: an exploration of influential issues and factors".
