Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare two methods of managing low acuity musculoskeletal complaints in children and adolescents ages 6 to 17.99 years in the pediatric emergency department. The main question it aims to answer is whether delivering care in two methods is feasible. Participants will receive care while in the emergency department and will be followed for a period of 1-month post-presentation.
