Does early intensive lowering of blood pressure reduce hematoma volume and improve clinical outcome after acute cerebral hemorrhage?
Worster A, Keim SM, Carpenter CR, Adeoye O; Best Evidence in Emergency Medicine (BEEM) Group. Worster A, et al. Among authors: keim sm. J Emerg Med. 2009 Nov;37(4):433-8. doi: 10.1016/j.jemermed.2009.05.002. Epub 2009 Jul 9. J Emerg Med. 2009. PMID: 19545967 Review.
RESULTS: The two randomized trials incorporated similar parallel designs and both trials measured clinical outcomes and short-term change in hematoma size. The smaller trial was only partially blinded and showed no difference in any of the outcomes; the large trial demonst …

Risk stratification of the potentially septic patient in the emergency department: the Mortality in the Emergency Department Sepsis (MEDS) score.
Carpenter CR, Keim SM, Upadhye S, Nguyen HB; Best Evidence in Emergency Medicine Investigator Group. Carpenter CR, et al. Among authors: keim sm. J Emerg Med. 2009 Oct;37(3):319-27. doi: 10.1016/j.jemermed.2009.03.016. Epub 2009 May 8. J Emerg Med. 2009. PMID: 19427752 Review.
RESULTS: Higher MEDS scores are associated with increasing mortality. MEDS score's short- and long-term prognostic accuracy is superior to other sepsis scales as well as isolated biomarkers C-reactive protein and procalcitonin. ...
