Double Jeopardy: Risk in Cardiology


Chest pain, palpitations, and other cardiac complaints are among the most common complaints seen in the ED. However, the diagnoses hidden under these complaints can be some of the most critical and dangerous in EM. A dynamic duo of presenters will analyze some recent litigation involving cardiac diagnoses, and review both the risk management and the cardiology lessons that may be learned from these cases.

 

Presenter: Dan Sullivan, MD, JD, FACEP and William Brady, MD
