    Aim: In this study, we aimed to compare copeptin with N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and cardiac troponin I for predicting severity and 3-month mortality in acute PE in the emergency department (ED). Material and Methods: All ED patients older than 18 years who were confirmed to have acute PE within six hours of diagnostic work-up were enrolled and prospectively screened. Risk stratification was made according to the 2014 European Society of Cardiology guideline on PE. The study endpoints were defined as 3-month mortality, presence of non-low risk PE, and presence of right ventricular (RV) dysfunction. The Mann-Whitney Ll test was used for the comparison of medians. Receiver operating characteristic curves were generated and the area under the curve (AUC) was calculated to determine the best cut-off values of copeptin and NT-proBNP. A P value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: The study enrolled 82 patients. Twelve patients who died during 3 months had higher concentrations of NT-proBNP and copeptin, but not troponin I. The AUCs of NT-proBNP and copeptin to accurately predict the 3-month mortality were 0.73 +/- 0.09 (95\% CI, 0.62 - 0.82

    The immediate effect of deliberate practice and real-time feedback on high-quality CPR training in intern doctors, acute care providers, and lay rescuers

    The quality of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is the main determinant of survival in cardiac arrest, so high-quality CPR (HQ-CPR) from bystanders is essential. The best instructional model for HQ-CPR performed by bystanders remains under investigation, and an instructional model's effect on various learner types is unknown. This study examined the immediate effect of a brief, blended instructional design that combines deliberate practice (DP) with real-time feedback (RTF) on the booster training of intern doctors (IDs) and acute care providers (ACPs) as well as on the skills acquisition training of lay rescuers (LRs). This cohort crossover study was conducted in a university-affiliated hospital in January 2020. Just-in-time training on HQ-CPR that featured a popular song was provided to IDs (n = 24), ACPs (n = 29), LRs (n = 25)
