EMJ podcast   /     Missing elbow fractures, and consulting the elders: November 2024 Primary Survey

Summary

Upper limb injuries make up about three-quarters of the limb injuries to children seen in the emergency department. But when it comes to the elbow, just how good are clinicians at diagnosing based on radiography? The first paper this month is a study putting over 300 global participants to the test. There's also a practice review highlighting the concept of shared decision making with frail elderly patients, a discussion of biomarkers for aortic dissection detection, more on telephone triage, and an interesting questionnaire on patient experience.
