[Speaker 1]: How to document some symptoms like chronic pain syndrome because this chronic regional pain syndrome especially in the fractures of the hand which is such a small fracture or in the distal radius may be small for a doctor because he is treating it every day but big for the patient because it is his only hand. And the disability with that is immense. Means sometimes the patient may take up six to nine months to recover where he would have normally recovered in three months. How can I defend that for my future litigation? Ki basically now he has developed. Shall I document it? Shall I explain to the patient? How do I counsel? Because it usually happens after two to three weeks.
[Speaker 2]: Agreed. So whenever you call a patient for the follow up or whenever you are giving a discharge to the patient and possibilities are there as a known complication or possibilities are there, then you need to document. Or when patient comes in a follow up and you have clinically examined and you found that this could be the same what you have thought of. Then explain him. See, you communicate, you document. And if it is documented and known to the patient for which treatment is done, you got a very good defense to put up. You can be safeguarded and you can win the cases.
