Résumé
The year 2015 was marked by several publications questioning the practice of emergency medicine. The systematic administration of oxygen in STEMI patients offers no benefit. Similarly, medical expulsive therapy in patients with ureteric stones was questioned. Administration of steroids for acute radiculopathy showed only short-term, but no mid-term pain improvement. Several studies have demonstrated the benefit combining intraarterial and intravenous thrombolytic therapy for ischemic stroke. However, studies assessing optimal management strategy for patients hospitalized with community acquired pneumonia, showed conflicting results. Finally, these developments occur in the context of an aging population and increase of pre-hospital management for the elderly, raising the question of how to reduce hospital admissions in this population.
