For 50+ years, we’ve thrived on solving unstructured problems that require bespoke solutions. Some of our services include:
Key Capabilities
• Post-incident review, analysis, and summary of medical, nursing, first responder documentation to assist in accurately determining the sequence of physical forces, processes, or events that produced clinical evidence of injury or clinical issues
• Interpretation of medical data (e.g., jargon, abbreviations, and protocols)
• Review of pre-incident medical records for previous injuries, illnesses, or other predisposition for injury
• Radiology reviews (identification of type and location of trauma, as well as direction of applied loads to generate injury)
• Forensic pathology, including medical diagnoses such as time and cause of death
• Preparation of detailed, exhibit-ready diagrams to visually depict injury sites, including their respective location, size, shape, and character
• Injury scoring (e.g., AIS analysis)
• Notations and recommendations regarding missing documentation, omissions, errors, and suspected altered or tampering of medical records
• Observations regarding supporting or conflicting statements surrounding the event and its occurrence
• Literature searches for relevant, authoritative medical literature, guidelines, and pertinent research data
Information Reviews and Analysis
• Research and integration of authoritative healthcare literature, guidelines, standards of care, and regulations as related to details of pertinent medical procedures, illnesses, and injuries
• Evaluation of complex cases involving personal injury, medical malpractice, and product liability for causation, predisposing or precipitating factors, and residual effects
• Preparation of custom-made work products, as well as standard summaries and chronologies, injury lists, and diagrams
• Identification of subject matter experts needed
