A literature review was carried out to assess the safety of Adenosine in Urgent Care (UC) setting for the termination of Paroxysmal Supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT). Thorough literature evaluation advocates the use of adenosine for the acute termination of PSVT in Urgent care settings, especially in rural and remote practices. It has the potential to improve patient management and satisfaction along with a reduction in cost, ED load, and associated hospitalization.

Abstract:
Paediatric lateral condylar fractures (PLCF) are the most common fractures in children under the age of 7. This article will provide an overview of paediatric lateral condylar fractures with an emphasis on the importance of obtaining adequate radiographs and providing an accurate classification to guide management. It is essential for Urgent Care clinicians to be competent in the reading of paediatric elbow radiographs and possess a sound knowledge of the different classification systems of PLCF in order to provide the correct treatment and knowing when to refer for operative and non-operative treatment.
