It was learned that the patient avoided going to the hospital because of the fear of giving blood samples for years. Blood tests were requested from the patient, but the patient stated that she did not want to give blood sample. The patient accepted our offer to take blood under hypnosis and stated that he would try to give blood with this method. Thereupon, the patient was taken to a suitable environment and stretcher in the emergency room.

Elbow dislocation is a common traumatic injury, occurring in approximately 20% of all joint dislocations. Falling onto an outstretched hand is the most prevalent cause of elbow dislocation. Simultaneous bilateral elbow dislocation is a rare presentation, and reports of similar injuries are very limited. A 21-year-old male patient was brought to the emergency department after landing on both hands with flexed elbows from a height of one meter while doing home decoration work. The posterolateral dislocations was detected in both elbows without a fracture on the plain radiographs. The patient's elbows were reduced under procedural sedation analgesia in the emergency department. The patient's splints were removed in the orthopedics outpatient clinic after a 2-week follow-up, and he had no complications. It should be noted that serious bilateral dislocations can occur even in minor traumas like this. Procedural sedation not only prevents the delay of the procedure and the occurrence of complications, especially during the treatment of such multiple dislocations, but also increases patient comfort.","PeriodicalId":41189,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Emergency Medicine Case Reports","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2022-11-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42856633","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, sometimes false positive or false negative results can occur. One of the reasons that can lead to erroneous interpretation is artifacts. Especially when metallic artifact occurs, hyperintensity may be observed in the subarachnoid space, similar to SAH. Although FLAIR hyperintensities in the sulci can be detected in many serious diseases, they are not always pathological. Artifact related hyperintensities, especially in cases with severe headache, may be mistakenly evaluated as SAH by a clinician or radiologist who is not well-experienced in MRI. However, it is extremely important to recognise these artifact related hyperintensities, to make a correct diagnosis and to prevent unnecessary interventions. In order to achieve this, the evaluation of all radiological images, especially SWI and GRE, is critical. Both radiologists and clinicians evaluating neuroradiological examinations should be knowledgeable about this subject and show maximum attention. \u0000In this report, we present the radiological images of 4 cases of pseudosubarachnoid hemorrhage, one of which was caused by conductive EEG gel and the other three due to braces artifacts, who were admitted to the hospital with headache.","PeriodicalId":41189,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Emergency Medicine Case Reports","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2022-11-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41759815","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
