Orthopedic Emergencies
In this edition of the WMN, we will concentrate on the recognition and management of a fractured pelvis, a fractured femur, angulated fractures, and compound fractures. For the sake of completeness, we will also include a quick review of the management of chest trauma, head trauma, facial trauma, and compartment syndrome (we covered these four topics in past issues of the newsletter)
