Interfacility transfer of patients from Level III/IV to I/II (tertiary) trauma centers has been associated with improved outcomes. However, little data are available classifying the specific subsets that derive maximal benefit a tertiary center. Drawbacks include increased secondary overtriage. Here, we ask which injury patterns survival following interfacility transfer.
In this narrative medicine essay, a physician recalls that when she presented with suspected appendicitis as medical student, repeatedly requested confirmation CT scan, which revealed different diagnosis, and relates her experience those of many women whose symptoms are not thoroughly checked out.
Objectives Peripheral intravenous catheters (PIVCs) are frequently used to meet patients’ short-term health care needs.
