A Harvard #study found that #AIsystems #outperformed #humandoctors in #emergencymedicine #triage. However, the study only tested #humans against #AIs looking at #patientdata that can be communicated via text, and the AI’s reading of signals, such as the patient’s level of distress and their visual appearance, were not tested. https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2026/apr/30/ai-outperforms-doctors-in-harvard-trial-of-emergency-triage-diagnoses?eicker.news #tech #media #news

The AI RoboDoctor Will See You Now
A Harvard-led study just dropped a result that will make every #ER doctor’s stethoscope twitch.
In a head-to-head against attending physicians at a Boston hospital, #OpenAI’s o1-preview reasoning model diagnosed patients more accurately at the moment of triage, just when information is sparse, time is short, and getting it wrong can kill someone.

Hey #emergencymedicine #toxicology peeps! Anyone in PDX interested in a fun experiment being run right now might consider doing a study of heavy metal levels in the blood of people gassed by ICE during recent and upcoming marches. We know many gas grenades have heavy metals in them, so there may be a publishable public health concern here. Just a thought after recent events…

Hey #Healthcareworkers #emergencymedicine #emergencymedicalservices #nurses #intensivecare #criticalcare folks: black band your badge. If you don’t have one already, a hairband with a knot in it will work fine.
When we lose a cop, medic, firefighter — we put a black band around our work badges. Band up for Mr. Pretti.

How do you waste the most time every day?
At the time of writing this article, which was back in June 2025, I was going through my 6th Rotation of my Housemanship which is in the Department of Emergency and Trauma. As a House Officer in the Emergency Department, we go by the 12-hours shift.
This meant, our shift is from:
- AM Shift: 7am till 7pm
- PM Shift: 10am till 10pm
- Night Shift: 10pm till 10am
In this department, they are strict in regards to adhering to a minimum of 60 hours per week in total. Thus, in a week, our schedule is as follows;
- A total of at least 4 daytime shifts (AM or PM Shifts)
- One night shift
- One off day
That is provided one has off-tagged of course.
Perhaps, it is the “last paper syndrome” that I was experiencing being in the 6th and final rotation, I would be counting down my hours each day at work. Thus, upon arrival at work, I would start my “12-hours countdown“ on my phone.
On slow days, I made it a point to go to toilet every hour, technically my so-called “hourly break” whereas on busy days, the toilet break is the only time I could take a break. This is followed by ensuring I have at least one meal per day during my shift.
Otherwise, the schedule in the emergency department is relatively better as compared to my previous rotations. Nevertheless, the tiredness is still there.

Impossible Referrals | Mina Naguib | Granta
"how do you balance the risks when one is entirely unpredictable and lies outside the scope of medical expertise? How do you weigh the chance of being bombed by a genocidal Israeli regime against the danger of an untreated heart arrhythmia or diabetic crisis?"

Two #EmergencyMedicine specialists write, " ...there are growing concerns about our general level of readiness to deal with a new pandemic or any kind of catastrophic event. That's because the federal government seems determined to weaken or eliminate agencies and programs that health systems depend on to make us more resilient to large-scale #disasters." https://www.medpagetoday.com/opinion/second-opinions/115749?xid=nl_secondopinion_2025-05-27&mh=94a3ffbf5efe5196113f4b100e6cb951&zdee=gAAAAABoE23NTssIYTtSXY1LNnohGJaXAfxVFk3sLQUV_-a3Jg6H4sLYZSzhHq472hWcUyzpLu_H7KI5XGZij861NIwwo4RTcZ3VS4TgbTYGcKYWEoniicQ%3D

We are back in Poland for another Austere Emergency Care course. We support training companies that want to become certified providers of AEC courses through Specialized Medical Standards.
We are monitoring the second course offered by Eagle-Med System. The have one more AEC to run before they become their own provider of this course.
CoROM is happy to work with any other company that wants to run this #PFC programme.
