Episode 10
In this episode I chat with Dr. Chris Amato about pediatric fractures - management of pain, when to call Orthopedics, and practical tips on splinting and immobilization strategies.
Side note: I mention in this that a femur fracture will heal if you get the two ends "in the same room together" - I should clarify, "in the same room together AND in a spica cast." Cast those femur fractures, people!
