Season 5 is just around the corner! We'll be kicking off the new season October 7th. Mark your calendars!
In the meantime, Mohammed is off to Pakistan this week to PakTraumaCon 2024. Being the insufferable nerd that he is, he's not satisfied annoying his colleagues and new acquaintances only at the conference, but has also been after them for chats before even getting on the plane... Someone needs to stop him!
Joining him on this bonus is Prof Junaid Abdul Razzak, also a speaker at PakTraumaCon this year. Prof Abdul Razzak is Vice Chair of Research at Weill Cornell Medicine in New York, and is also the Director of the Centre of Excellence for Trauma and Emergencies at the Aga Khan University in Karachi.
Let's take a look (or a listen) back to last year's IEMTA ASM, and specifically the inaugural Fergal Hickey lecture, given by none other than Dr Fergal Hickey himself.

With over 3900 neck of femur fractures (NOFs) reported in Ireland in 2021, these fractures represent a significant burden of morbidity and mortality, particularly for our older patients.

Ever wondered how to make a referral to The Irish Paediatric Acute Transport Service (IPATS) when working in a tertiary hospital? What is the criteria for transferring a child, when can it be done by IPATS and when should the transfer be organised by the referring hospital?

We thought we’d start off the new year as we mean to go on with a paeds bonus episode on the first day of 2024! In this episode EM consultant Dr Conor Davis talks all things paediatric transfers and answers the above questions and more. And seeing as we are thecase.report, we might have even managed to give an EM consultant their own case to tackle!
