Pediatric neuropsychiatric emergency services provide emergency care for children and adolescents with acute psychiatric and neurological disorders. Th ese conditions can occur both in chronic neuropsychiatric diseases and also in children and adolescents who have not shown previous signs and symptoms. Pediatric neuropsychiatric emergencies are varied, requiring a multidisciplinary approach leading to a rapid and correct diagnosis followed by eff ective treatment. The diagnosis and treatment of these conditions require an emergency medical evaluation, as they may be based on a medico-surgical cause or may have serious medico-surgical consequences. Th is study highlights the neuropsychiatric disorders consulted by the on-call service of the Department of Pediatric Neurology and Psychiatry during the years 2017-2019 as psychiatric or neurological emergencies, most being referred from the Emergency Reception Unit Service (UPU) of the Emergency Clinical Hospital for Children „Louis ?"rcanu " Timioara. The most common pediatric psychiatric emergencies were: psychomotor agitation, anxiety disorders, aff ective disorders, emotional and behavioral disorders, and the most common pediatric neurological emergencies were: traumatic brain injury (CBT), epilepsy or seizures, headache syndrome and intracranial hypertension syndrome.

Afecţiunile metabolice se pot manifesta în special în perioada de nou-născut şi sugar prin: hipoglicemie, insufi cienţă cardiacă, hiperlactacidemie primară, insufi cienţă hepatică, convulsii netratabile, deteriorare neuro logică. Autorii prezintǎ principalele manifestǎri ale urgenţelor metabolice şi tratamentul de urgenţǎ.

Frecvent, bolnavii cu afecţiuni metabolice (boli datorate dezechilibrelor electrolitice, disfuncţii endocrine, boli înnăscute de metabolism) prezintă simptome similare cu ale altor urgenţe, în particular în perioada de nounăscut şi sugar. Autorii prezintǎ principalele urgenţe: în cazul dezechilibrelor electrolitice – hipoglicemia, hiponatremia, acidoza metabolicǎ şi hipocalcemia neonatalǎ; în cazul disfuncţiilor endocrine – insufi cienţa suprarenalianǎ şi criza hipopituitarǎ neonatalǎ; în bolile înnăscute de metabolism – acidoza, hiperglicemia/ hipoglicemia, hiperamoniemia, simptomele clinice asociate acestora şi tratamentul recomandat.

The emergency situation in oncology can be defined as a pathological condition determined by the clinical evolution of cancerous paraneoplastic syndromes or a consequence of the chemotherapy disease (metabolic, hematological, neurological, motor). Assessing the diagnosis and performing specific therapy should be rapid and address the syndromes in the order of their severity. The diagnosis of the oncology patient's emergency must be determined in the order of priority and type of emergency: morphological or obstructive paraneoplastic syndromes caused by solid tumors with organ and/or metabolic compression caused by functional failure of tissues or organs; chemotherapy disease toxicity induced through iatropathy, following the administration of chemotherapy medication. The objectives in solving oncological emergencies are the diagnosis of the cause, the clinical and paraclinical evaluation and very rapid therapy. Paraneoplastic syndromes may be due only to primary or associated tumors of lymph node invasion, visceral metastases, or may be the consequence of established therapies: surgical, chemotherapy, hormonal. Oncology emergency may be aggravated by preexisting liver disease, kidney disease, hematologic disease, neurological disease, disease evolution or therapy-associated. The urgency of oncological therapy is to control pain, restore blood volum, to amend the paraneoplastic symptoms (anemia, cachexia, thrombocytopenia, lymphopenia) and eventually restore the morphostructural palliative integrity of affected tissues. The choice of therapeutic strategy and the combination of techniques and methods are made personalized according to the clinical condition of the oncology patient at the time of diagnosis by anamnesis, general physical examination, TNM clinical staging, monitoring of vital functions, histopathological type and the appreciation of the response to the therapies already performed.

Units taking over veterinary emergencies must apply triage protocols, in order to be able to manage flows and to improve the quality of the veterinary medical services in emergency situations. This article briefly presents a triage protocol adapted for veterinary medicine, based on the national triage protocol for patients in emergency departments(1). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Interventional radiology procedures have become a fundamental part of radiology, resulting in faster diagnoses and in safer, more effective, and more precise treatments, all of which are important, and even more so when referring to urgent situations, where time is of the essence. In this context, the use of ultrasound to guide interventional procedures enables real-time viewing in multiple planes that can be done at the patient's bedside, which is a great advantage in critical patients. We review the indications and technical aspects of the most common procedures related with radiological care of urgent patients., (Copyright © 2021 SERAM. Published by Elsevier España, S.L.U.
