Patients with multiple injuries. Management in office practice.

In the emergency treatment of a patient with multiple severe injuries who is brought to a physician's office from the scene of an accident, the physician must make sure that a way for air to reach the lungs is open, must treat or prevent shock, stop hemorrhage and apply temporary splints to fractures of the extremity. The possibility that the tip of the tongue is blocking the pharynx and that blood or other fluid is clogging the airway must be considered. Fluids should be administered intravenously to prevent shock and gauze pads should be held firmly in place to control bleeding.

Elbow and wrist injuries in sports.

Any disabling injury of the elbow or wrist should be studied roentgenographically for evidence of fracture which may not be otherwise evident but which may cause permanent disability unless the joint is immobilized for healing."Tennis elbow" may be treated with physical therapy and analgesic injection but may require splinting or tendon stripping. Elbow sprain can occur in the growing epiphysis but is rare in adults. A jarring fall on the hand may cause fracture or dislocation at the elbow. Full extension of the joint should be restored gradually by active exercise rather than passive or forcible stretching. Fracture at the head of the radius may cause joint hemorrhage with severe pain which can be relieved by aspiration. A displacing fracture at the head of the radius requires removal of the head to prevent arthritic changes. Myositis ossificans contraindicates operation until after it has cleared. Healing of wrist fractures may be facilitated by exercise of the shoulder and elbow while the wrist is still in a cast. Fractures of the navicular bone are difficult to detect even roentgenographically and splinting may have to be done on clinical evidence alone.
