American college of emergency physicians has listed 1733 emergency conditions.  It shows the scope of emergencies occurring in various medical fields. From this, we can understand that emergency medicine is a vast field. [[Ayurveda]] has a lot of potential to contribute to medical emergencies. However, it is not much explored in the current practices of [[Ayurveda]].
