Outcome and Follow-up
The patient was transported via private auto to the emergency department
at the University of Connecticut John Dempsey Hospital for immediate
evaluation of his AAA. The patient was then recommended to follow-up
with a hip specialist for further evaluation after his AAA was treated.
Verbal follow-up included a call from the emergency department provider
to the orthopaedic urgent care to confirm the diagnosis of AAA and
provide patient outcome.
