AB  - An  emergency  is  commonly  defined  as  any  condition  perceived  by  the  prudent  layperson—or  someone  on  his  or  her  behalf—as  requiring  immediate  medical  or  surgical  evaluation  and  treatment.  On  the  basis  of  this  definition,  the  American  College  of  Emergency  Physicians  states  that  the  practice  of  emergency  medicine  has  the  primary  mission  of  evaluating,  managing,  and  providing  treatment  to  these  patients  with  unexpected  injury  and  illness.
