Management of Orthopaedic Trauma
In this new episode, Dr Gavin Nimon (Orthopaedic Surgeon Adelaide) interviews Associate Professor Peter Smitham on his approach to the management of a lower limb traumatic case, a woman who has been it by a car and sustained a compound tibia fracture and pelvic injury.
This is particularly useful for those preparing for exams and Osce cases, but also of interest to all involved in the medical field.
