High-Pressure Injection Injuries of the Hand: Our Experience and Literature Review
High-pressure injection injuries require rapid recognition and management, as delays increase the risk of infection, necrosis, and functional impairment. Early, thorough debridement is essential, especially with materials like paint thinner significantly elevating the risk of amputation. This study emphasizes educating emergency physicians on early recognition and intervention for optimal outcomes.
