In the orthopaedic field, the nurse practitioners are mainly responsible for tasks in direct clinical practice to further improve quality, mainly in the hospital setting. They carry out daily clinical consultations and detailed anamnesis interviews, including medication anamnesis. They are also responsible for comprehensive hospital discharge management, which also includes instructing and coaching patients.
