DISCLAIMER: These monographs represent the opinion of the author, based on his own personal training, experience, and reading.
In some cases these opinions may be in conflict with standard orthopedic care.
The monographs have been produced solely in an effort to assist doctors who are practicing in, or will be going to practice in, remote and primitive settings where normal equipment, supplies and referral base may be lacking.
The monographs are in no way any attempt to change or circumvent the usual or typical standards of
orthopedic care and management. Nor are they intended for publication in any books or journals. Rather, they are intended as a "personal" communication from the author to such doctors as described above.
Each doctor receiving and utilizing the data contained herein must carefully exercise his or her own judgment, based on his or her own experience and abilities.
Just because a practice locations is primitive and remote does not excuse "mayhem". Each doctor practicing in such a location and under such circumstances must still do his or her very best to provide the finest care possible for the patient, within the constraints and limitations of the location and his or her own abilities.
