Laura Finucane (laura.finucane@nhs.net, Twitter, ResearchGate) of the National Health Service (United Kingdom) is interviewed by Kevin L. MacPherson regarding a publication from Musculoskeletal Science and Practice titled, “What is the diagnostic accuracy of red flags related to cauda equina syndrome (CES), when compared to Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)? A systematic review.” This episode contains information that should be interesting for musculoskeletal providers interested in spinal pain, red flags, primary care roles, and medical screening. Please note that an error was made during the episode when referring to pregablin, a medication that is known to cause urinary frequency and incontinence, not urinary retention.
