             Case-based for most effective learning and retention, Bouncebacks! helps emergency

             physicians sharpen their analytical skills to improve patient safety. The illustrative
             cases educate emergency physicians in documentation, risk management, and

             evaluation and management of common ED complaints and diagnoses. Although

             patients in these cases were not entirely mismanaged, often important "red flags" were

             missed or ignored.

                Additional goals include continuing education in documentation, risk management, and

             discussion about evaluation and management of common ED complaints and diagnoses.

                The cases are structured for most effective learning impact: documentation of initial visits;

             Gregory Henry, MD, FACEP (past president of ACEP) comments on evaluation and

             documentation from medical and risk management perspectives; final ED visits,

             diagnosis and hospital/surgical courses; and national experts' referenced discussions

             of appropriate ED approaches to diagnosis and management.
