The first direct comparison of the Clinical Institute Withdrawal Assessment-Alcohol Revised (CIWA-Ar) scale to a slightly modified Richmond Agitation and Sedation Scale (mRASS-AW) in a pre-post quality assurance study found mRASS-AW to not compromise length of stay or safety for the evaluation of alcohol withdrawal syndrome (AWS), while we already know it to be faster and more intuitive.
This RCT of U.S. patients being evaluated for acute MI using a 0/1 hour hs-cTnI protocol, compared to standard care with a 0/3 hour hs-cTnI protocol, didn’t find a difference in the percentage of patients discharged from the ED nor in the rates of 30 day death or MI.
