Ankle injuries are a common reason for a visit to the emergency department. But @SickKidsNews' #ChoosingWisely QI toolkit shows an x-ray isn’t always necessary for low-risk paediatric ankle injuries. Download now: loom.ly/i-f23OE ⬇️
Did you know minor ankle injuries, including many breaks don't require X-rays or plaster casts?
Read our toolkit "Say Nay to the X-ray" for more info: bit.ly/3D9ta8P #ChoosingWisely
Thank you Ed. You are an inspiration! @SickKidsNews
