Medicolegal work

Medicolegal is something that involves both medical and legal aspects, mainly:

Medical jurisprudence, a branch of medicine
Medical law, a branch of law

In simple language it is a medical case with legal implications for the attending doctor where the attending doctor, after eliciting history and examining the patient, thinks that some investigation by law enforcement agencies is essential . Or a legal case requiring medical expertise when brought by the police for examination.

Patient scoring system

Stephen uses the Amplitude patient outcome scoring system to publish clinical results on the UK Hand Registry.

The system is secure and confidential and allows you to track your progress following surgery. The system uses emails to enable you to complete outcome scores. Alternatively you can use the patient portal webpage.

Annual results will be public (without patient details) from January 2017.

Further data is recorded and validated on the Private Health Information Network website

The Amplitude pro series uses simple technology to allow your clinician or healthcare professional to collect clinical outcomes and use them to measure a reduction in your symptoms and and improvement in your quality of life.
