    Objective: Carbon monoxide (CO) is the main cause of intoxication-related mortality and morbidity in developed countries. It is responsible for more than half of fatal intoxications in many countries. The purpose of this study was to determine the diagnostic value of protein carbonyl (PC), a good marker of oxidative stress, in association with oxidative stress resulting from hypoxia emerging in patients with acute CO intoxication. Methods: Thirty-four patients diagnosed with acute CO intoxication at the Emergency Department and 38 healthy volunteers were included in the study. Patients' PC levels at time of admission and after treatment were compared with those of a control group. Results: No statistically significant difference was observed among PC levels at time of admission in the patient and control groups (p = 0.305, patient group 0.025 +/- 0.01, control group 0.026 +/- 0.01). A significant decrease was determined in post-treatment PC levels in the patient group compared to those at time of admission (p = 0.006, admission 0.025 +/- 0.01, post-treatment 0.017 +/- 0.008). No significant correlation was determined between patients' carboxyhemoglobin (CO-Hb) levels and PC levels at time of admission (Correlation coefficient = -0.006, p= 0.971). Conclusions: We think that PC is not suitable for use as a biomarker in the acute period in patients with CO intoxication.

    Developing Cricothyroidotomy Skills Using a Biomaterial-Covered Model
    (ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2020-01-01) Senuren, Cigdem Ozkaya; Yaylaci, Serpil; Kayayurt, Kamil; Aldinc, Hasan; Gun, Cem; Simsek, Perihan; Tatli, Ozgur; Turkmen, Suha
    Introduction-Cricothyroidotomy is an advanced and life-saving technique, but it is also a rare and a difficult procedure. The purpose of the present study was to produce a low-cost simulation model with realistic anatomic features to investigate its effectiveness in developing cricothyroidotomy skills. Methods-This study was performed at a university simulation center with 57 second-year student paramedics and a cricothyroidotomy simulation model. Total scores were assessed using a checklist. This consisted of 13 steps and was scored as misapplication/omission=0, correct performance and timing with hesitation=1, and correct performance and timing without hesitation=2. One of these steps, local anesthesia of the area if time is available, was not performed owing to time limitations. The highest possible score was 24. Data are presented as mean +/- SD with range, as appropriate. Normal distribution was evaluated using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, Student t test, and Mann-Whitney U test, and correlation analysis was used for statistical analysis. Results-Students completed the cricothyroidotomy procedure steps in 116 +/- 46 (55-238) s. At performance assessment, the score achieved was 12 +/- 5 (2-24). The highest total score of 24 was achieved by 3 students (5\%). Total scores exhibited negative and significant correlation with procedure time (r=-0.403, P=0.002). Conclusions-The model developed in this study is an inexpensive and effectivemethod that can be used in cricothyroidotomy training for student paramedics. We think that repeating the cricothyroidotomy procedure on the model will increase success levels.

    A novel method for improving chest tube insertion skills among medical interns Using biomaterial-covered mannequin
    (SAUDI MED J, 2017-01-01) Tatli, Ozgur; Turkmen, Suha; Imamoglu, Melih; Karaca, Yunus; Cicek, Mustafa; Yadigaroglu, Metin; Bayrak, Selen T.; Asik, Olgun; Topbas, Murat; Turedi, Suleyman
    Objectives: To develop a low-cost biomaterial-covered chest tube simulation model and assess its possible usefulness for developing the chest tube insertion skills among medical interns. Methods: This mannequin-based interventional study was performed in a University hospital setting. We included 63 physicians performing emergency medicine internship at the Faculty of Medicine, Karadeniz Technical University, Trabzon, Turkey, between January 2015 and March 2015. A dummy was prepared for training simulation using a display mannequin. Medical interns received instruction concerning pneumothorax and the chest tube procedure. A total of 63 medical interns participating in this interventional study were asked to insert a chest tube in a biomaterial-covered mannequin. A senior trainee scored their performance using a check list and the mean of the total scores was calculated (21 items
