Fracture Management for Primary Care and Emergency Medicine

This was my favorite cme buy for the year. The clinical competency needed to understand this book was definitely for providers. I felt like had a good understanding of basic care and pitfalls by the end. An absolute diamond in the sea of landscape rocks. The outline pages made quick Quizlet flashcards. Negatives, it didn’t discuss muscles and attachments in any great detail nor nerve injuries, which I expected and was ok with, but for those looking for specific ideas this is bones fx and the ligament attachments only as they would be seen with avulsion fractures. All normal anatomy. Each section had a second Peds section.

Coverage was extensive, although I expected more "Hands-On fracture management" with respect to actual procedures. The book goes into extensive and appropriate detail on mechanics and quick point of care pearls. Definitely a must-have for a non-orthopedic practitioner who wants clinical insight into skeletal trauma.

As described. Lacking more in depth information.

Just realized my book is missing an entire section....it jumps from page 128 to 161. It has a repeat print of pages starting at 161. but nowhere does it have pages 129 through 160. I'm so bummed because a) I love this book and b) my return window has already closed 😭

The book is awesome, it’s perfect. The seller however I was less than impressed. Canceled my order and raised the price $20 the next day. So I had to pay more. Felt shiesty.

This product has been extremely helpful as it has very succinct easy to follow guidelines of what to do in the initial assessment, management, splinting of a fracture. I work in a very busy ER and I find this to be an extremely valuable tool. I’ve shared it with a buddy who works at urgent care and he also purchased it. It’s improved my efficiency and accuracy treating the initial fractures of my pt’s. It has reasons for Ortho follow up, or emergent Ortho follow up. It has the rules as to allowances of variances from anatomic perfection. Very, very, very useful book. Was recommended to me by an ER doc who also does ortho. Highly recommend for anyone who deals with the initial management of bone injuries.

The book it’s self is fantastic . However the kindle version does not give you a good experience . The links to the video content of the book does not work on the kindle platform . I am currently in contact with the publisher to resolve the issue .
