Background: The mortality rate in an emergency department is an efficient tool to appraise the quality of healthcare provided by this department. Objective: The main objective of this study was to estimate the mortality rate in the emergency department (ED) at King Faisal Medical Complex in Taif, Saudi Arabia, and to also determine the most common causes of death and the profiles of patients who die in the ED. Methods: This was a retrospective study conducted in (392,862) consecutive patients who were admitted to the ED during the period between June 1st, 2016 and February 28th, 2018. Data were analyzed using SPSS 2012, version 21. Results: Out of 392,862 admitted patients, 194 (0.049%) died in the emergency room. The majority of these deaths were non-traumatic (88.1%). The most common causes of non-traumatic death were heart disease other than coronary artery disease (50.0%) and sudden death of unknown cause (33.0%). While traumatic deaths (11.9%) were predominantly caused by motor vehicle accidents (10.4%) and gun shoot wounds or falling down (1.5%). Higher rates of traumatic death were reported among males (p=0.038) and younger patients (p<0.001). Conclusion: Our study reveals the emergency department in King Faisal Medical Complex has a relatively low mortality rate that indicates a high level of medical care quality in the department.

Data security in u-Health system can be an important issue because wireless network is vulnerable to hacking. However, it is not easy to implement a proper security algorithm in an embedded u-health monitoring because of hardware constraints such as low performance, power consumption and limited memory size and etc. To secure data that contain personal and biosignal information, we implemented several security algorithms such as Blowfish, data encryption standard (DES), advanced encryption standard (AES) and Rivest Cipher 4 (RC4) for our u-Health monitoring system and the results were successful. Under the same experimental conditions, we compared these algorithms. RC4 had the fastest execution time. Memory usage was the most efficient for DES. However, considering performance and safety capability, however, we concluded that AES was the most appropriate algorithm for a personal u-Health monitoring system.

In an emergency situation, emergency services and administration Collaborating units must lead to a fast ordering in the event of disaster. They are also obligated a rapid and logical Implementation of the assistance and resources That are available and collected on in even of disaster. There is a need for the preparation of pre-developed solutions to Competent professionals, on the assessment of the risks of aid Organizations, transport and logistics tasks. The paper presents the Responsibilities of the various administration units related to the performance of tasks in the emergency medical system in the event of a disaster.

Clinical rotations play a major role in the learning process for medical students. During training, students are usually supervised by a team of residents and their consultants. This study was conducted in order to determine the perceptions of undergraduate medical students towards Emergency Medicine [EM] residents as teachers

Hospital emergency departments with emergency medical teams are the basic units of the National Medical Rescue System. Hospital emergency department is an independent organizational unit within the meaning of the hospital health care facilities, providing the benefits of health care that persons in a state of sudden health threat, satisfying the Requirements of the Act of 8 September 2006 about the National Medical Rescue System. In research presents the procedure of dealing in the situation of a disaster of the hospital emergency department. Characterized in details the mobilization personnel system, the role of hospital emergency staff and hospital staff jobs in emergency department in the situation of disaster.
