Pyelonephritis is a commonly treated diagnosis in the emergency department. With resistance rates climbing to the first-line recommended fluoroquinolones and Bactrim, are other antibiotics appropriate in treating pyelonephritis? Join Dr Gabor as she discusses this article and its treatment recommendations for outpatient pyelonephritis with cephalosporins and how it compares to treatment with the more traditional fluoroquinolones / bactrim route.

Severe trauma is the leading cause of death worldwide for adults younger than 50 years of age. Acute traumatic life support (ATLS) guidelines endorse early and aggressive usage of supplemental oxygen in patients with severe trauma, at least until abnormalities of airway or breathing can be safely ruled out. However, unclear target concentration, duration or saturation goals often leads to hyperoxemia. Emerging studies in the intensive care unit (ICU) setting suggest that liberal supplemental oxygen therapy and hyperoxemia is associated with increased mortality. Limited evidence in the trauma population suggests similar outcomes.
