The authors report on the case of a 69-year-old female who presented to the emergency department due to exquisite abdominal pain she described as occurring after she coughed. Imaging revealed a ...rectus sheath hematoma (RSH). A RSH is an uncommon but significant cause of acute abdominal pain that occurs when blood accumulates in the sheath of the rectus abdominis muscle. It can be caused by a muscular tear or a ruptured epigastric artery and can happen spontaneously or after trauma. The etiology, presentation, diagnosis, and management are discussed.The authors report on the case of a 69-year-old female who presented to the emergency department due to exquisite abdominal pain she described as occurring after she coughed.

TSP and atmospheric .sup.210Pb concentrations were observed at Tsukuba, Japan during July 2001 to March 2005. TSP concentrations ranged from 14.5 to 152.4 microg m.sup.-3. .sup.210Pb concentrations ...ranged from 0.04 to 0.86 mBq m.sup.-3 which was low in summer and high in winter to spring. Although TSP concentrations changed annually, .sup.210Pb concentrations had almost the same concentration level and seasonal variation. The correlation coefficient between .sup.210Pb concentration and NO.sub.3.sup.- concentration was slightly higher than for other ion species. This result indicated that both had been attached to the same particle size and transported to the sampling site.
Abstract Background The landscape of the emergency medicine workforce has changed dramatically over the last few decades. The growth in emergency medicine residency programs has significantly ...increased the number of emergency medicine specialists now staffing emergency departments (EDs) throughout the country. Despite this increase in available providers, rising patient volumes, an aging population, ED overcrowding and inefficiency, increased regulation, and other factors have resulted in the continued need for additional emergency physicians. Objectives To review current available data on patient volumes and characteristics, the overall physician workforce, the current emergency physician workforce, the impact of physician extenders and scribes on the practice of emergency medicine, and project emergency physician staffing needs into the future. Discussion and Projections We project that within the next 5 to 10 years, there will be enough board-certified or -eligible emergency physicians to provide care to all patients in the U.S. EDs. However, low-volume rural EDs will continue to have difficulty attracting emergency medicine specialists without significant incentives. Conclusions There remains a shortage of board-certified emergency physicians, but it is decreasing every year. The use of physicians from other specialties to staff EDs has long been based on the theory that there is a long-standing shortage of available American Board of Emergency Medicine/American Osteopathic Board of Emergency Medicine physicians, both now and in the future. Our investigation shows that this is not supported by current data. Although there will always be regional and rural physician shortages, these are mirrored by all other specialties and are even more pressing in primary care.
