Emergency care is an integral part of the healthcare system and is the first port of call for many people around the world. In particular, where there are logistical or financial barriers to accessing health care, people can only come for treatment if they have symptoms of an acute illness or injury. Orthopedic emergency specialists perform surgeries, provide inpatient care, and ongoing care for any musculoskeletal injury or condition. Musculoskeletal injuries include trauma from accidents or falls, fractures, sprains, and dislocations. Around one in two adults is affected by musculoskeletal disorders, including back and neck pain, osteoporosis, and arthritis.
