Patients with oral and facial injuries presenting as emergencies to the accident and emergency (A&E) unit at Arrowe Park Hospital have been used to compare the treatment method of direct referral to oral and maxillofacial surgery with that of the routine A&E procedure. A quicker and more effective treatment was administered by direct referral of patients to oral and maxillofacial surgery and an argument for such specialist staff to be based in A&E departments is advanced.
以急症形式前往阿罗公园医院事故与急救(A&E)科室就诊的口腔面部损伤患者,已被用于比较直接转诊至口腔颌面外科的治疗方法与常规A&E程序的治疗方法。通过将患者直接转诊至口腔颌面外科,实施了更快且更有效的治疗,并提出了让此类专科人员进驻A&E科室的理由。
