AbstractThis article provides brief updates, pearls, and pitfalls on aspects of emergency practice that are dealt with routinely, including the application of diagnostic testing in the emergency department, ruling out subarachnoid hemorrhage, and the use of tympanic temperatures. Physician-patient and physician-physician communication skills are addressed. Finally, medicolegal and administrative topics, such as EMTALA, writing admitting orders, treating minors in the emergency department, and blood product therapy in Jehovah's Witnesses are also discussed.
