EM:RAP The leaders in Emergency Medicine education. This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute medical advice.

Emergency Medicine Reviews and Perspectives (EM:RAP) was founded in September of 2001 with a simple mission: provide the best medical education to emergency medicine practitioners everywhere. For more than twenty years, EM:RAP has passionately pursued this goal. In doing so, we have become the most listened to audio program in emergency medicine, with more listeners than the total number of emergency physicians in the United States. Today, EM:RAP continues to expand its mission through emergency medicine and beyond with a culture of continuous innovation. We’ve developed educational products that have re-defined standards for medical education, and we continue to challenge ourselves by developing new technologies, employing expertise from fields beyond medicine, and re-imagining what makes learning powerful. EM:RAP’s commitment to medical education also extends beyond national borders. To date, clinicians from over 160 countries have relied on EM:RAP for cutting-edge, mission critical education. Our products have made a difference in patients’ lives amidst public health crises, active warzones, and resource limited settings. While access to expert emergency medical care is expected in high resource nations, in many lower resource communities emergency medicine is still in its infancy. Through our nonprofit, EM:RAP Global Outreach, we are connecting a global community of scholarship that provides outreach and education where high-quality emergency care is needed most. We are a team of doctors, educators, designers, videographers, audio engineers, and artists, dedicated to improving healthcare by transforming medical education. More importantly, we are people who believe everyone deserves access to the highest level of medical care. We believe that great education makes great clinicians, and great clinicians take great care of patients. At EM:RAP, we believe what you do matters.

📚✨ CorePendium Media Highlight
💉 Know Your Veins for Peripheral IV Access

Finding a good peripheral IV can make all the difference, especially when you’re working quickly in a busy ED. Knowing the upper-extremity venous anatomy can help you choose the right site and know where to look when your first attempt isn’t successful.

From the cephalic and basilic veins to the median cubital, median antebrachial, brachial, and axillary veins, this graphic gives you a quick visual reference for the major veins used for peripheral access. 🩺

📚 This illustration is from CorePendium, designed to give you practical anatomy and clinical information at your fingertips. Save this graphic for your next shift.

🤒An unvaccinated kid presents to the ED with a fever, now what?...

There is sparse literature on this topic, but you asked us to help you with a bit of guidance, so Ilene Claudius is here this month with a few recommendations🩺👩‍⚕️ She covers the risk of bacteremia, pneumonia, measles, and RSV🦠🫁
Herd immunity is still a factor in your decision-making and understanding the number of kiddos in your community who are vaccinated will impact your next steps 👥💉
One thing to be sure to do for these kids is to ask specifically which vaccines a child has received and lower your threshold to work up a bit more, keeping in mind those herd immunity numbers.

🎧 Head on over to the EM:RAP app or emrap.org to listen to the entire segment. So much great info in there. You do not want to pass it up🚨📚

Thankfully, there is a growing awareness of how you, the EM frontline workers are also impacted by a myriad of mental health issues🩺❤️‍🩹

As part of helping our community in this area EM:RAP has put together our segments that can help us all gain the knowledge to help our patients, our colleagues, and ourselves.
