Welcome to BEDLEM News!
Its been a while... its almost two years sincethe last issue of the Ysbyty Gwynedd EDnewsletter !where did the time go?!
Weve had a name change too: this newsletterused to be called Bangor EmergencyDepartment Local Education & Social Stu" !aka BEDLESS !but to eliminate the possibilitythat anyone couldpossiblyhave interpreted theprevious title as a political comment, we have re!named it BEDLEM instead. Just to be sure.
We apologise in advance if this issue is a bit doctor!
centric: we wanted to get the project resurrected asquickly as possible, so we had to use material we had tohand. Having decided to re!launch the newsletter ASAP,
we just didnt have time to canvas the nursing sta"forcontributions !just compiling it was a big enough job!
We are now appealing for contributions towards thenext one, because it really does need to be a team e"ort.If youd like to see something included, please write it forus! No contributions, no newsletter...
So please, do put pen to paper!

2013 was an eventfulyear for our EmergencyDepartment.
Probably the biggestsingle change since ourlastnewsletter is that, mostdays, we actually havepatient flow.
Sta"who have joined ussince May 2013 may notrealise just how much of animprovement there hasbeen, thanks to a return tosite!based operational
management, herculeane"orts by the entire medicalservice #and many otherspecialties$and, of course,the very, very hard work ofED sta"and bed managers.
The situation is fragile...one missing ward round at a
weekend, or a few extrapatients can quickly scupperthings... but what a
di"erence cf. 2012 and early2013.
Our senior doctor sta%nglevels have improved too: weappointed two new substantive
consultants in July 2013, and ourClinical Fellow scheme is
gathering pace again after acracking 2012/3 year.
We are also becoming ahighly desirable place formedical students to visit ontheir electives !weve got our2nd and 3rd Australian students
with us at present and much of2014 is booked up already.
We are still working in acramped and out!dated physicalspace, but our new build is dueto commence soon... and whilstIm sure we will be cursing itduring the phased buildingprocess #which will inevitably bedisruptive$we promise itll be
worth it!
So, rock on 2014... wereready for you!

Dont forget the PregnantPatient Pathway!
If you are seeing a pregnantpatient !or someone in the post!natal period who is within two
weeks of delivering !please dontforget to use the PregnantPatient Pathway.
Some high!risk conditionscan present apparentlyinnocuously in pregnant andpost!partum women, and if youdontspecifica$ythink about
possible complications ofpregnancy, you may well miss
them.
We recently sent home a lady
36/40 gestation with increasedleg swelling and proteinuria
without discussing her with amidwife, and saw a possible post!partum eclampsia present 2
weeks after the woman delivered#the record, apparently, is 23 dayspostpartum$so please !get thepathway out and follow it!
Metoclopramide
Contra!indicated in under 21sdue to the higher risk of adystonic reaction
Blood bottles
Dont forget that bloodbottles, particularly the yellowU&E bottle, should be gentlyinverted about 6 times aftertaking your blood sample
?ruptured tendo achilles
We have missed a couple ofTA ruptures in the past year. Ifyou think theres any possibilitythat there may be a TA injury,
youmust perform and documentanormal calf!squeeze test #forgetpositive or negativeSimmonds test... nobody knows
whether positive means itsnormal or it isnt!$
Its also wise to quickly checkfor any TA gap or tenderness
when examining an injured ankle!we are all so fixated on theOttawa areas that most peopleforget to check the TA and thehead of the fibula, which areboth part of ankle examination.
If you suspect apartialTArupture #normal calf squeeze but
very tender over the TA and ahistory to match$you mustensure it is protected pendinginvestigation by ultrasound. Ourfoot & ankle surgeon, MrMumtaz, advises a full equinusPOP whilst waiting. Manypatients wont be thrilled withthat inconvenience for an injurythat is only suspected, so if theydecline, you must persuade themto be completely non!weightbearing #and document you toldthem a POP would be better$.
Mr Mumtaz is happy to haveall ?partial TA injuries referred tohis fracture clinic on a Mondayafternoon in the event you cant
wangle an urgent ultrasound withDr Kraus or Dr Barwick first.
eGFR - two caveats
We now have eGFR quotedon our blood results. Just bear inmind that eGFR is not validatedfor use in acutely ill patients, andit may be falsely low in patients
who have significant muscle!wasting or who are vegan, asthese individuals will typicallyhave very low creatinine levels.
Secondary Surveys thatarent enough
If a trauma patient isadmitted to a specialty otherthan orthopaedics or EDOU, youshould specifically point out thelimitations of the secondarysurvey and that a tertiarysurvey is required.
A post!trauma patient wasadmitted to medicine after anepisode of collapse. Hedcomplained of ankle pain on thesecondary survey, it had been x!rayed, there was no bony injury.He was later discharged from the
ward without a full ankleexamination being conductedand a ruptured achilles tendon
was missed.
A quick squeeze on asecondary survey !even with an
x!ray as well !isnota fullexamination. Do explain this to
people who dont deal withtrauma on a daily basis!

Tetanus boosters
Kids under 15 are regarded as
up to date with their tetanuscover, even though they havent
yet had 5!shots!in!their!lifetime,so long astheyve hadtheir full primary immunisationcourse of 3 doses as a baby.
They dont need additionalboosters in the ED, and theydont need immunoglobulin: beaware that regional experts dontall agree with the HPA advice
#which advocatesimmunoglobulin even in fullyimmunised patients if there isheavy contamination withmaterial likely to contain tetanusspores or extensive devilalisedtissue. http://www.hpa.org.uk/
webc/hpawebfile/hpaweb_c/1194947314087
We do occasionally seefarmyard crush injuries garnished
with cow pat, but theyre not thatcommon in kids!
Molluscum contagiosum
Now, youd think thatmolluscum #a highly contagiousbut usuallyharmless
viral skindisease$really
wouldnt besomethingto fret aboutin the ED.
We thought so, too.
So we got a bit of a shockwhen we learned that molluscumfrequently causes a dermatitisreaction in a"ected areas whichare dry, pink and itchy and makediagnosis more di%cult. %Mind
you !surely it sti$didnt need to cometo the ED ?!Ed&
Lisfranc injuries of the foot
Lisfranc injuries #TMT joint
disruption$are a classic easilymissed injury in the ED.
These midfoot injuries occureither due to crush injuries, or
when a rotational force has beenapplied to a plantar!flexed foot.
The problem is that standardfoot views on x!ray can becompletely normal even iftheres a Lisfranc injury present.
Our foot & ankle colleague
Mr Mumtaz o"ers the followingadvice:
Always think: could there be aLisfranc injury? andspecifically look for the x!raysigns
Look for bruising on theplantar surface of the foot !this is highly suggestive of amidfoot problem
Safety!net: instruct patients toreturn for re!evaluation if their
foot is not significantly betterafter a week, and considerweight!bearingx!rays views ifthey do return.
Although in EMpractice we are taughtthat dislocated joints arealways an emergency,Lisfranc injuries dontnecessarily have to bereduced immediately. Afew days delay in a
patient who isnt weightbearingdue to pain isnt going to domuch harm. However, patients
get very cross about delayeddiagnoses, so if you think thatclinically there may be aproblem, always warn patientsthat initial x!rays arent infallibleand a normal initial x!ray doesnt
always totally exclude asignificant injury.
Your hip isnt broken...
On a similar note, be careful in
how enthusiastically you reassurepatients whom you thought had afractured NOF, but then the X!rayseemed fine.
Some of these patients dohave occult fractures and, onceagain, patients and families getreally cross if a fracture is missedon their first visit.
Its important to be honestabout the limitations of x!rays :I
cant see any break on the x!ray,which is reassuring, butoccasionally you can get a crackthat doesnt show up on the first x!ray. Depending on whether thepatient mobilises or not, you needto make a judgement call whetherto refer to orthopaedics because
your suspicion of a fractured NOFis clinically so high, or whether tosafety!net with instructions to
return for possible repeat x!ray ifthe pain doesnt settle.
Arterial blood gasses
We have become great fans ofvenous blood gasses !much lesspainful for patients #although weshould use LA for radial arterypunctures$and many of our nurses
will do venous gasses, so they aregenerally less hassle.
But some patientsdo sti$needan ABG: notably, anyone with satsless than 93&and most majortrauma patients #even if theres nosuspicion of chest injury, you can
get weird stu"like fat embolism$.
We recently treated arespiratory failure patient with
very low sats who, embarrassingly,didnt get an ABG done in the EDat all. Worse still, we didnt notice
this till an independent reviewerpointed it out after a complaint.Red faces all round.

Dercums Disease
Possibly the weirdest conditionwell mention this issue, but wepromised a patient wed educatesta"about it... which means wemust have seen at least onepatient with it!
According to the NationalOrganisation of Rare Diseases #of
whose reliability we know little,but we dont know much aboutDercums either$: Dercumsdisease is a rare disorder in whichthere are fatty deposits whichapply pressure to nerves,resulting in weakness and pain.Various areas of the body mayswell without apparent reason.
The swelling may disappearwithout treatment, leaving
hardened tissue and pendulousskin folds.
More worryingly for ED, it canalso apparently cause death frompulmonary complications.
If anyone can tell us more andsupply more reliably information
wed be happy to feature it nexttime.
Cephalosporins and
penicillin allergy
Still carrying around in your headthat someone told you theres across!reactivity risk of about10&for penicillin allergicpatients being givencephalosporins? Time to update!
Its way, way lower. Think nearer1&in patientsreportingallergiesto pencillin #and still only 2.55&in patients withprovenpenicillin
allergy$. Whats more, only 1stand 2nd generation
cephalosporins possess the R1side chain said to beresponsible for the allergiccross!reactivity. The 3rd and4th generation cephalosporinswed use in ED dont even havethe R1 side chain #thoughcefuroxime does !2nd
generation$.
Glucagon and
oesophageal obstruction
Doesnt work. Neither doesbuscopan. Fizzy drinks work inabout 70&of cases, butendoscopy works in 93!100and finds pathology in 55!90&of these cases$. We might wantrefer patients with oesophagealfood boluses to ENT sooner
than we typically do...
Tramadol lowers the
seizure threshold
Not recommended in patientswith epilepsy #and if you see apatient with epilepsy whoseseizure pattern has changed,ask about tramadol use !wefound one who was taking hismums tramadol for toothache$
Milk tooth knocked
out?
Dont try and replace it: youcan damage the permanenttooth developing beneath.
Drowning terminology
Struggling with near drowning, wetdrowning, dry drowning? Forget it.Its wrong anyway. The currento%cial definition of drowning is:The process of experiencingrespiratory impairment due tosubmersion,or immersion, in liquid.Outcomes are injury, no injury, or
death. Weve also got a new EDguideline for management of thedrowned patient who hasexperienced injury #dammit !neardrowning was a lot shorter to type!$!see next issue for more details.
Lactic acidosis in alcoholics
We often forget this one: chronicalcoholics may develop a type B2lactic acidosis, partly de to lack of
food and partly because alcoholinhibits gluconeogenesis, so glucoseisnt available as fuel and so ketonesare created instead. This is all made
worse by ACTH deficiency and liverdisease, which further impair
gluconeogenesis as glycogen storesbecome depleted.

1. Take care with modified release preparations ofhighly toxic drugs !eg diltiazem MR. Patients may
go o"suddenly after several hours of being
apparently well.
2. Be cautious with staggered paracetamoloverdoses !if worried at all, treat.
3. Use e"ective doses of insulin!dextrose incardiotoxic drug poisoning. Inthis situation the dose of insulin
needs to be appropriatelyadjusted. Hypoglycaemia isuncommon, and concerns aboutthis should not prevent use.
4. Observe opioid overdose
patients for at least 4 hours, andat least 8 hours following
overdose with methadone orsustained!release preparations.Observe for at least 6 hours afterthe last dose of naloxone: patients
discharged earlier may die oncethe e"ect of naloxone wears o".
5. Metabolic acidosis is often a challenging
di"erential diagnosis, and poisoning is one possible
cause. The Unknown poisoning link below thesearch box in TOXBASEmay be helpful.
6. Iron poisoning is deceptive, and it is often
di%cult to risk assess, especially in children.Remember that desferrioxamine will prevent properinterpretation of serum iron concentrations, andthat haemolysis is a complication of serious iron
poisoning.
7. Therapeutic excess with digoxin is often over!treated with FAB. Indications are clear on
TOXBASE. FAB should only be used for patientswith cardiovascular impairment secondary totoxicity, notjust a slightly high serum concentration.
8. Although major smoke inhalation could lead tocyanide toxicity, the frequency of this complication is
currently unknown. In conscious patients, antidotesare unnecessary. In unconscious patients, checking
lactate may help guide need for therapy.
9. Carbon monoxide poisoning is an importantproblem, but should not be a major issue in conscious
patients in whomnormobaric oxygen
therapy is su%cient.The role of hyperbaricoxygen remainsuncertain; in particular
clinical trial data is
unclear on long!termbenefit.
10. The patient whodoes not wanttreatment is di%cultfor the most
experienced clinician.In overdose this is a
most challenging issue, and TOXBASEo"ers someoutline guidance to assist front line sta".
11. Patients with a long QT are likely to be su"
eringfrom a toxic e"ect on cardiac potassium channels.Automated machines use inbuilt nomograms that are
likely to be unreliable in poisoning in correcting QTfor heart rate. TOXBASEcarries a nomogram thatuses heart rate and measured QT to assist riskprediction. The treatment of choice for this
abnormality is IV magnesium.
12. Patients with suspected poisoning are a diagnosticchallenge. TOXBASEnow carries a list of common
Toxidromes and possible causative agents. See the
Unknown poisoning link under the TOXBASE
search box.
In mid!2012, just prior to the changes in the UK Paracetamol Poisoning guidelines, we saw a case of severe liverfailure in a young man whom wed treated according to the "now defunct#normal!risk treatment line. NPIS
request that a$such cases are reported to them, and the doctor concerned ended up being de!briefed by Professor
Bateman%om NPIS. It was fantastic service and we were most impressed. We asked Professor Bateman if he
could kindly share with us the top tips%om NPIS for ED doctors. Here is his selection...

We are sti$not doing bri$iantly we$onsensible use of the D!Dimer.. so heres an
article%om 2012. Again....
The D!dimer is a useful test that can be used to rule!out PE in low risk patients. But if the pre!testprobability is high, then the D!dimer result is irrelevantand the test should not be performed#because even anegative test would leave an unacceptably high risk ofPE$.
These are just three: there are others #get theMedcalc Pro app for your iPhone!$.
We dont actually mind which you use !butwed like you to use one of them. Some peopleloathe the awkwardness of the BTS Score !others find it by far the most straightforward.But both Wells & BTS require you to decide
whether you think its a PE or not, whichGeneva does not. On the other hand Geneva
requires you to be able to pick up bandatelectasis on CXR. Take your pick!

Weve always said we weregood at trauma, but were notsure anyone believed us... howcould a little unit 100 miles%om tertiary services, where penetratingtrauma is almost unheard of, possibly be good
at trauma?
We$, we can poke a thumb at our doubters,because the latest results in the UK national
major trauma audit, TARN "TraumaAudit Research Network#confirm that we
are doing rea$y very we$with5.4additional survivors!om thoseexpected!om every 100 patients.
TARN isnt perfect !we have done our fair share ofcriticising the methodology in the past, as so muchemphasis was placed upon the Injury Severity Score #ISS$derived from radiology #and, in deaths, PM$reports wherethe precision was sometimes insu%cient to generate anaccurate score.
However, the e"ort going into ensuring the ISS is accurateis now considerable, greatly assisted by the Major TraumaNetwork process, and it will be the same in every traumanetwork now reporting to TARN. So we think that
TARN is probably comparing apples to apples more thanin the past.
We must, of course, thank our Major Trauma Centre,University Hospital North Sta"s, who have been takingover our most seriously injured patients since October2012 !this success is their success too !and especiallyLeesa Parkinson and Sue Owen in our ED who have
worked so very hard to get our TARN participation backon the road after a significant hiatus!

Our Clinical fellow
Scheme did very well in2012/3, we had 6wonderful middlegrade doctors #whichfell to five when Will
Sutcli"e left us to be lured back to the GasBoard!$. Two of the 2012/13 Clinical Fellowsloved it here so much they stayed on... Dr Rio
Talbot as an ST4 #Registrar$in EM, and Dr JenDinsdale for a second CF year with the additionof Medical Education to her portfolio for 3sessions a week.
Greg Cranston and Rich Gri%ths returnedto Higher Specialist Training in EM, and JakeHartford!Beynon went o"travelling #we are veryjealous of his Facebook updates!$and is due toreturn to training in February 2014.
New faces
Dr Kate Clayton joined us in August 2013 for a 12!month Clinical Fellow post, bringing with her a wealth of
EM experience from the uniqueperspective of someone who went into
medicine after being a very experiencedEM nursing sister in London.
We will soon be welcoming two newClinical fellows from early February 2014:Dafydd Williams & Jason Rigby.
Dafydd hails from North Wales #and will be only oursecond!ever Welsh!speaking Clinical Fellow$and we havehad reports from Ben Hall #our former registrar$thatJason has a penchant for outrageously colour!coordinatedscrub suits with matching trainers... watch this space!
On a sad note
We lost a colleague and friend last year:Dr Rimon Than, the RAF Valley GP
worked with us in the ED one day a week,but was tragically killed in an avalanche inthe Cairngorms on Valentines Day 2013.

As well as our shop!floor teaching commitments with medicalstudents of various sorts passing through our ED, the e"ortsof the Clinical Fellow team deserves specific mention.
Most of the 2012/13 group thew themselves into paramediceducation with great enthusiasm, getting involved with theparamedic training of RAF rear!crew #a good excuse for themthen to go our flying with the Sea King, naturally!$as well assupporting the development of the local Welsh Ambulanceparamedics and technicians they work with on pre!hospitalshifts.This culminated in the Clinical Fellow team forming themain speaker body at the May 2013 WAST CPD Day that we
hosted in YG. The day was a huge success, totally sold out, andthe combination of lectures and lunchtime work!shops proveda hit. There are photos of the day at http://
www.mountainmedicine.co.uk/Mountain_Medicine_Bangor/Blog/Entries/2013/5/17_CPD_Day_photos.htmlA paramediccrew from Monmouth were so inspired by the event they thenorganised a repeat event in South Wales, using our posters andlectures.
Dr Jen Dinsdale #pictured left$then tookher Medical Education interest to a wholenew level, by staying on for a second year
#with a 3!session/week MedEd commitment$teaching medical students, as well as startingup CPD sessions forlocal paramedics, the
first of which took place in January 2014at Caernarfon Ambulance Station and
was very well received. They willcontinue on the 3rd Wednesday of eachmonth.
Finally, the ultimate perk of the 2012/3Clinical Fellow posts went to Dr Rich
Gri%ths #right$whose name came out ofthe hat to go on a working holidayteaching RAF winchmen... in Cyprus!
