Case Study – Compartment syndrome/DVT/Cellulitis

Instructions for writer

Consider the patient’s immediate presentation – what are you thinking? Why are you thinking that? Is it a gut feeling, or is it because you have considered her age and gender and so therefore the most likely diagnosis because of his situation?

• Peer reviewed research, textbooks, national guidelines etc (these can be Australian/UK/USA guidelines)

• I have attached the case study, which includes subjective and objective data about this patient.

I have written in bold under each section where I require additional information, changes to what I have already written, patho-physiology, definitions, descriptions and patient comparisons etc.

Please use Vancouver reference style throughout.

Approx an additional 800-1000 words needed.

Thank you!
