Interesting to see someone with medical experience say compartment syndrome cannot result in the loss of a limb. I’m not a medical professional with years of training nor have I passed any medical boards.
However every single reference I can find on the web, many from sources appearing to be fairly reputable indicate loss of limb, nerve damage, and even death are possible outcomes from this condition.
I did not say cannot. Lord I wish you people had some reading comprehension training…. my comments were simply that compartment syndrome is itself not treated by amputation…. a reduction is the medical procedure for acute cases (which though not rare are uncommon)…. amputation is a rare result of such cases and comes from the necrosis of the surrounding tissues….it is secondary.
I am done FR has a bunch of police hating folks who only hate the medical profession more. My question to you is why not wait until the trial occurs and we get the facts before jumping to an immediate the police are at fault conclusion???
Plus the fact to cite the most dreaded result from a medical source on line is really not what medicine is about. My guess is your boards (for whatever license you were going after) did not even cover compartment syndrome.
