In this month’s Critical Decisions in Emergency Medicine podcast, Dr. Danya Khoujah and Dr. Wendy Chang discuss the February 2019 issue. The first lesson in the issue is “Dangerous Creatures – Envenomation” What’s the difference between poisonous and venomous and why do you need to know? Dr. Khoujah and Dr. Chang investigate and discuss best treatment options for the venomous bitten patient. The second lesson in the issue is “Hostile Workplace – Managing the Agitated Patient in the Emergency Department”. Alarmingly, 78% of emergency care providers have experienced at least one violent workplace act in the past 12 months, and 20% describe being physically assaulted by a patient. Learn what you can do to help improve safety for yourself and your patients.
