Radiological examination of the foot revealed autolysis of the middle phalanx and head of the proximal phalanx of the little toe with preservation of the distal phalanx (Fig. 2). Appearances were characteristic of ainhum. The toe was amputated using local anaesthetic and the patient was given a course of antibiotics. The toe was redressed on two occasions and healed without complications.","PeriodicalId":77009,"journal":{"name":"Archives of emergency medicine","volume":"10 4","pages":"324-7"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1136/emj.10.4.324","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"19102939","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The next day I was senior house officer (SHO) on call covering general surgery for the weekend when a call was put out for the trauma team to report to the resuscitation room in the accident and emergency (A&E) department. A helicopter had crashed and a survivor was in the resuscitation room. Following immediate intubation examination revealed that he had a superficial wound to the left upper chest and a flail segment of that same side with poor air entry. I inserted a large chest drain immediately, without radiological confirmation, and the aspiration of air and blood improved his oxygenation. Following rapid infusion of fluid and blood as per ATLS guidelines his blood pressure rose to 110/90ml of mercury and his heart rate was 120 beats min-1. He had a fracture of the left femur and radiographs of the cervical spine, chest and pelvis revealed a fracture of the pelvis and marked shadowing in the left lung field with multiple rib fractures. The case demonstrated clearly to me the value of the ATLS course I had just attended. In a crisis situation it gives a system of working whereby a patient can be managed quickly and in an orderly fashion. I would encourage everyone who deals with trauma to undertake this valuable course.","PeriodicalId":77009,"journal":{"name":"Archives of emergency medicine","volume":"10 4","pages":"387-8"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1136/emj.10.4.387-b","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"19102866","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Questionnaires were returned by 365 SHOs, who indicated their year in training, the number of hours worked per week, the type of training hospital, the number of new A&E attendances per year, the ratios of patients and consultants to SHOs at their training hospitals and their likelihood of specializing in A&E. They also completed inventories measuring work-related stress, task and role clarity, work group functioning and work satisfaction. Scores on the satisfaction scale served as the dependent variable in a multiple regression equation.

Direct relationships between task and role clarity (P = 0.0001) and work group functioning (P = 0.0002) were significant, as were inverse relationships between stress (P = 0.0001) and the number of new attendances (P = 0.0321).

She was seen the same day in the accident and emergency (A&E) department with diffuse left shoulder pain. On examination diffuse swelling of the shoulder was noted but no deformity was discernible. All movements of the shoulder were grossly restricted and painful. An initial X-ray (Fig. 1) showed a Salter-Harris Type II injury of the left proximal humeral epiphysis. The head of the humerus was noted to be markedly displaced inferiorly. An axillary view to ascertain the relation of the humeral head to the glenoid could not be obtained because of patient discomfort. As a result of the severely subluxed appearance of the shoulder the patient was admitted for observation and further evaluation. An ultra sound scan of the shoulder was obtained which did not show fluid in the joint. The position of the humeral head remained unchanged over the next 3 days despite rest in a triangular sling. A week after the injury a further X-ray (Fig. 2) showed that the subluxation of the head was resolving. The shoulder became more comfortable and a reasonable range of movement returned. The proximal humeral fracture, however, became progressively more displaced but went on to unite soundly. Normal shoulder function was regained by the eighth week after injury.
