I graduated from Osaka University in 1982 and joined the Department of Traumatology, Osaka University Medical School. Patients with severe injuries and illnesses were brought in every day. Staff brushed up their skills on site, taught each other, and engaged in friendly competition for research. We had many frustrating moments when we could not save lives. Since then, the needs of emergency medicine have changed, and the scope of practice of emergency physicians has expanded to include pre-hospital emergency care, primary health care, intensive care, and disaster medicine. I was transferred to Juntendo University Urayasu Hospital in September 2007. Soon after my assignment, Urayasu Hospital was in the spotlight due to the emergency hospitalization of the All-Japan soccer coach and the Chinese frozen dumpling incident. It is said that emergency medicine is a mirror of society. I myself have experienced many disasters and incidents. It has been 15 years since I was assigned to this hospital, and I have 62 colleagues at Urayasu Hospital. They have all acquired various medical specialties, and some are emergency medicine specialists. In 2019, we hosted the 47th Annual Meeting of the Japanese Association for Acute Medicine. The theme of the conference is "Fudan Zenshin, Kyumeikyukyu (constant advancement, emergency medical services)". Emergency medical care is the starting point of "medicine" and is the ultimate source of life preservation for all citizens. We emergency physicians will continue to provide lifesaving medical care to patients without giving up until the very end, to keep the light of life from going out.
我于1982年毕业于大阪大学，并加入了大阪大学医学院创伤科。每天都有重伤和重病患者被送来。工作人员在现场磨练技能，互相传授，并在研究方面展开友好竞争。我们有很多令人沮丧的时刻，就是无法挽救生命。从那时起，急诊医学的需求发生了变化，急诊医生的执业范围扩大到包括院前急救、初级卫生保健、重症监护和灾害医学。2007年9月，我被调到顺天堂大学浦安医院。我到任后不久，浦安医院因全日本足球教练紧急住院和中国冷冻水饺事件而备受关注。据说急诊医学是社会的一面镜子。我自己经历过许多灾难和事件。我被分配到这家医院已经15年了，在浦安医院我有62位同事。他们都获得了各种医学专业资质，有些是急诊医学专家。2019年，我们主办了日本急性医学协会第47届年会。会议主题是“不断进步，急救医疗”。急诊医疗是“医学”的起点，是所有公民生命保障的最终源泉。我们急诊医生将继续为患者提供救命医疗，永不放弃，直到最后一刻，以防止生命之光熄灭。
