Clinical Handbook of Emergency Orthopedics : Managing Fractures, Dislocations, Sprains, and Acute Musculoskeletal Trauma from Triage to Treatment
Overview
Clinical Handbook of Emergency Orthopedics gives you a practical, ED-facing reference for evaluating and managing fractures, dislocations, sprains, tendon injuries, limb-threatening trauma, and acute musculoskeletal complaints from triage through disposition.
Built for clinicians who need clear reasoning at the bedside, this handbook connects injury pattern, neurovascular risk, imaging choice, reduction readiness, immobilization, consultation, and discharge safety into one usable workflow.
- Assess deformity, skin compromise, perfusion, neurologic findings, and compartment risk before the case drifts into routine imaging.
- Recognize high-risk fractures, occult injuries, open wounds, dislocations, tendon injuries, pediatric growth-plate trauma, geriatric fragility injury, spine trauma, and infection mimics.
- Use structured approaches to radiographs, advanced imaging decisions, post-reduction reassessment, splint selection, crutch teaching, and return precautions.
- Strengthen orthopedic handoffs with clear documentation, practical consultation language, and transfer-ready clinical summaries.
- Learn from integrated cases that show where emergency orthopedic errors happen and how to prevent them.
- Includes clinical images and illustrations throughout the text, plus more than 100 clinical procedure and teaching videos accessible through integrated QR codes.
This 2026 edition is written for emergency physicians, urgent care clinicians, family physicians, residents, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, sports medicine clinicians, and medical learners who need a focused orthopedic trauma reference that teaches the reasoning behind safe first-line emergency care.
Use it when the injury looks straightforward, when the exam does not fit the x-ray, and when the next decision has to be right.
