Orthopedic Emergencies/ Musculoskeletal
Acute
orthopedic problems make up a large part of everyday emergency department
practice. Misdiagnosis of these injuries often
results from failure to consider certain clinical entities as a cause of the
patient's complaints, and may result in unnecessary complications for the
patient. Indeed, missed orthopedic injuries are the leading cause of
malpractice claims in emergency medicine.
