Uncomplicated Acute Alcohol Intoxication in the Emergency Department: A 12‐Year Retrospective Study to Understand Practice Change in Intravenous Fluid Usage and Patient Outcomes
Changing practice from an interventional approach for the administration of IVFs to an observation-based approach, for ED patients with UAAI is appropriate and can be sustained. This approach for the management of UAAI is supported by an established and growing evidence base. Factors regarding the reach, adoption and translation of evidence to clinical practice should be further explored.
