This month we try to answer some of the big questions in ED practice... we do not necessarily succeed...

  • How much electricity should we use in refractory VF?
  • Should we suck clots out of legs?
  • Should you put Tegaderm on eyeballs?
  • Is the HEART score valid? Are any clinical decision tools really what we think?
  • What happens if you discharge patients with low troponin rise?
  • Should you evert the edges of the wounds?
  • Can we send kids home with abnormal vital signs?
  • Does kissing minor toddler boo-boos help?
  • Do men with smaller penises drive fast cars?
