Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In emergency medicine, emergency physicians are responsible for initiating resuscitation, stabilization, early diagnosis, timely interventions and treat illnesses in the acute phase. As first-line providers, emergency physicians requires knowledge and skills, including critical care medicine for shock, anesthesia for difficult airway, cardiology for acute coronary syndrome, neurology for strokes, obstetrics and gynecology for pregnancy and vaginal bleeding, radiology for image studies. Several rare and life-threatening diseases challenge the emergency physicians due to the atypical symptoms, sign, and imaging findings. To prevent the catastrophic clinical outcome, understanding the pathophysiology and detailed mechanism from bench to bedside may provide a strong foundation for developing novel diagnostic tool and effective therapies.
In the Special Issue on “Emergency Medicine: Pathophysiology, Molecular Mechanisms, Diagnostic Methods, and Therapies”, we invite front-line researchers and investigators to submit both original research, review articles and case reports regarding the following potential topics
- Acute Coronary Syndrome and Heart Disease
- Pulmonary Disease
- Resuscitation and Shock
- Gastrointestinal, Liver and Pancreatic Diseases
- Intoxication and treatment
- Trauma
- Pediatric Disease
- Infectious Disease
- Cancer
- Neurological Disorder
- Molecular Regulation and Cell Biology
