Newly updated reference highlighting high-risk aspects of common, seemingly minor medical illnesses and injuries

Urgent Care Emergencies is a concise, quick reference designed to help healthcare professionals avoid pitfalls in challenging and fast-paced clinical settings. This text focuses on caring for patients with seemingly minor acute illnesses and injuries that may carry substantial morbidity if not appropriately recognized and managed. The text covers a wide range of emergencies that may be encountered in urgent care centers, clinics, or other acute care settings. It focuses on the most commonly encountered complaints and conditions, including genitourinary issues, common infections, orthopedic injuries, wounds, back pain, head and neck problems, and skin complaints. This new edition also includes additional chapters on the importance of effective patient communication, pharmacologic pitfalls, special issues in the care of pediatric and geriatric patients, and a special chapter focused on legal pitfalls.

As healthcare continues to evolve, this Second Edition serves as an essential resource for clinicians in urgent care and emergency departments. Each chapter is authored by experienced acute care clinicians and includes clinical wisdom that readers can apply directly to the care of their own patients.

Written by a team of highly qualified authors, Urgent Care Emergencies stresses important topics such as



Seemingly minor orthopedic injuries with a high risk for limb-threatening vascular injury
The limitations of radiographic imaging in the evaluation of subarachnoid hemorrhage
The potential life-threatening complications of local anesthetics
The importance of considering necrotizing fasciitis or Fourniere gangrene in seemingly minor soft tissue infections
Red flags in pediatric back pain
Key factors in evaluating sore throat to prevent morbidity and speed resolution

This updated edition of Urgent Care Emergencies is an essential at-your-fingertips reference for any physician, advanced practice provider, and other medical professional working in a setting that manages acute unscheduled medical concerns.
