    Abstract Objective: The California Emergency Medical Services Authority manages and deploys California Medical Assistance Teams (CAL-MAT) to disaster medical incidents in the state. This analysis reviews diagnoses for ambulatory medical visits at multiple wildland fire incident base camp field sites in California during the 2020 fire season.
    Methods: Clinical data without personal health information were extracted retrospectively from patient care records from all patients seen by a provider. Results were entered into Excel spreadsheets with calculation of summary statistics.
    Results: During the 2020 fire season, CAL-MAT teams deployed 21 times for a total of 327 days to base camps supporting large fire incidents and cared for 1756 patients. Impacts of heat and environmental smoke are a constant factor near wildfires; however, our most common medical problem was rhus dermatitis (54.5%) due to poison oak. All 2020 medical missions were further complicated by prevention and management of coronavirus disease (COVID-19).
    Conclusions: There is very little literature regarding the acute medical needs facing responders fighting wildland fires. Ninety-five percent of clinical conditions presenting to a field medical team at the wildfire incident base camp during a severe fire season in California can be managed by small teams operating in field tents.

    Abstract Medical school can be very challenging, especially when students are considering applying to competitive specialties, like emergency medicine. Once medical students know that emergency medicine is the field they want to specialize in, a multitude of other questions arise, including how many EM rotations should they do? How can they shine during their EM rotations? When should they schedule their rotations, electives, and sub-internships? How can they get the strongest letters of recommendation? What are residency program directors looking for? Therefore, we are going to present in the Medical Student Forum section of the Journal of Emergency Medicine a series of six articles covering this and more.

    Abstract Wildfires have become a regular seasonal disaster across the Western region of the United States. Wildfires require a multifaceted disaster response. In addition to fire suppression, there are public health and medical needs for responders and the general population in the path of the fire, as well as a much larger population impacted by smoke. This paper describes key aspects of the health and medical response to wildfires in California, including facility evacuation and shelter medical support, with emphasis on the organization, coordination, and management of medical teams deployed to fire incident base camps. This provides 1 model of medical support and references resources to help other jurisdictions that must respond to the rising incidence of large wildland fires.

    Abstract One of the hardest decisions a medical student has to make is the choice of specialty. Many studies have explored what influences the choice of emergency medicine (EM) as a specialty. In this article, we elaborate on the most important incentives, including the diversity in patients' presentations, having a defined and flexible schedule, the plasticity in choosing and changing a practice location, and the acuity of care and trauma experience. Additionally, we tackle some of the challenges that emergency physicians face. For instance, having to follow a different thought process than most other physicians, as well as the patients' quality and expectations. We also address some of the concerns regarding the specialty, specifically burnout, stress, and the fear associated with maintaining a career in EM. Finally, we provide students interested in EM with some resources that can provide them with further guidance to decide whether EM is the right choice for them.

    Abstract We describe a mobile digital checklist that we designed and developed for trauma resuscitation-a dynamic, fast-paced medical process of treating severely injured patients. The checklist design was informed by our analysis of user interactions with a paper checklist that was introduced to improve team performance during resuscitations. The design process followed an iterative approach and involved several medical experts. We discuss design challenges in converting a paper checklist to its digital counterpart, as well as our approaches for addressing those challenges. While we show that using a digital checklist during a fast-paced medical event is feasible, we also recognize several design constraints, including limited display size, difficulties in entering notes about the medical process and patient, and difficulties in replicating user experience with paper checklists.

    Abstract Emergency medicine is a profession that requires good leadership skills. Emergency physicians must be able to instill confidence in both the staff and patients, inspire the best in others, have the enthusiasm to take on a surplus of responsibilities, and maintain calmness during unexpected circumstances. Accordingly, residency program directors look carefully for leadership qualities and potential among their applicants. Although some people do have a predisposition to lead, leadership can be both learned and taught. In this article, we provide medical students with the tools that will help them acquire those qualities and thus make them more desirable by program directors.
