Very helpful
This guide is very helpful for the emergency department to quickly find out management and splinting of a fracture. I just use the index to locate the type of fracture I'm treating and flip over to the page and find the need-to-know information very quickly. There are probably other online resources to get similar information but I really like having this book handy.

Very useful
Iโm a physician assistant working in urgent care. This book has helpful pages on anatomy, how to splint different fractures, and plenty of helpful pearls. I worked in pulmonary before and had little-to-no ortho experience and this has been a lifesaver.

Didn't know its a pocket book. Very good content but too small for an old man...
