The very nature of the practice of emergency medicine makes adverse outcomes unavoidable. We often have no knowledge of the preexisting medical conditions of the patients we treat. Many of our patients have no access to essential medical care, causing them to present late in the course of disease. Lack of an ongoing relationship with the patient and family makes litigation more likely when adverse outcomes occur. In this issue, we have attempted to provide some principles of emergency medical practice that may help avoid litigation. The article on clinical practice guidelines provides a framework for when guidelines should be followed and when it is acceptable to deviate from them. The article on professional liability insurance discusses what types of malpractice insurance is available to emergency practitioners, and reviews the amount of settlements and judgments issued in recent years. The article on the legal process describes in detail the process of being a defendant or an expert witness in a malpractice action. The article on emergency department overcrowding describes perhaps the most pervasive problem in emergency medicine today, with strategies for lowering risk. The article on informed consent provides insights into dealing with patients who refuse treatment and for determining whether these patients have the capacity to refuse treatment. The article also touches on alternative care plans and implied consent. Physician review will soon become a required component of board certification and hospital credentialing in emergency medicine, and the article on this important topic describes the latest state and federal agency requirements. The article on the Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act (EMTALA) gives a current description of what emergency physicians should do to remain in compliance of this federal 'anti-dumping law.' The article on documentation and communication covers the key issues of how to minimize risk and bad outcomes during change of shift, admission, and discharge of patients. It also focuses on the importance of thorough, concise, and clear charting, which is too often ignored in the practice of emergency medicine. The article on physical and chemical restraints covers the management of the very high risk group of patients who are combative and uncooperative. The article on the psychiatric patient discusses two very high risk areas in emergency medicine: the area related to psychiatric patients requiring a medical evaluation, and the area related to the question of involuntary hospitalization of patients with suicidal ideation, homicidal ideation, and acute psychosis. The final three articles describe how to avoid medical legal pitfalls in the management of patients with high-risk chief complaints. …

Paperback. Condition: Like New. First Edition. In nearly new condition: firm and square with strong joints, no creases. Just a few hardly noticeable rubs. Hence a non-text page shows a small 'damaged' stamp. Despite such this book looks and feels unread. Thus the contents are crisp, fresh and tight. And so a very nice book in great condition, now offered for sale at a reasonable price. …
