When an emergency problem ocured that necessitates immediate care, it is often hard to assess if it is truly an emergency, or an urgent medical issue. If it is an emergency, patient immediately needs to be shifted in a medical facility, while if it is an urgent medical issue emergency medicine and care is needed. Hospitalization of patient may not be needed. Emergency care and medicine both are inter-related and sometimes emergency care only involves proper medication and intensive care, while in some cases it may needs proper medical attention, along with surgiacal procedure based on complications associated with emergency condition of patient.
