Which industry develоped the first medicаl prоgrаms fоr their employees?
A 27-yeаr оld mаle fell оntо his outstretched left hаnd (his dominant hand). Since the injury occurred in a remote area with limited medical resources, he was seen by a physician assistant (PA) who ordered standard radiographs (interpreted as negative). The PA diagnosed a sprained wrist and instructed him to apply ice to minimize the swelling and pain. Although the swelling subsided, the patient continued to experience pain for weeks following the injury. The patient is enlisted in the military, an avid cyclist, and weight-lifter. At three months, he returned to the PA who has now referred the patient to the physical therapist: “Evaluate and treat for wrist pain and stiffness following wrist sprain.”
