We publish our audit record because accuracy claims should be checkable. Every entry on this site runs through an automated fact-audit pipeline (accuracy audit → source-grounded repair → visual QA); this page is generated from that pipeline's own report, not written by hand.

Advanced trauma life support — The entry states 'outside North America, it is often called Early Management of Severe Trauma,' but the course is called EMST primarily in Australia and New Zealand, not generally outside North America.
Compassion fatigue — The claim that the term 'compassion fatigue' appeared as early as 1961 is not supported by established canon; the term is widely credited to Carla Joinson in 1992, with no verifiable evidence of prior use in 1961.
Compassion fatigue — The claim that Bob Geldof said 'compassion fatigue' was why he stopped his charity work after Live Aid in 1985 is not a documented, widely-known fact in traumatology canon; there is no reliable source for this attribution.
Perpetrator trauma — The entry states 'All studies on severity indicate that symptoms tend to be more severe for those who have killed than for other causes of traumatization,' which is an overgeneralization and factually inaccurate as not all studies agree.
Perpetrator trauma — The entry claims the DSM-5 explicitly lists 'being a perpetrator' as a separate causal factor in its PTSD criteria, but the DSM-5 does not use that specific phrasing and may misrepresent its wording.
Psychological trauma in older adults — The claim '90% likelihood of an older adult experiencing a traumatic event' is not a widely established canon fact; prevalence rates vary by study and population, and no single authoritative source states a universal 90% likelihood for all older adults.
Psychological trauma in older adults — The claim 'Prolonged exposure therapy has been specifically identified as a reliable therapeutic approach for older adults' is an overstatement; while prolonged exposure is evidence-based for PTSD in general, research on its efficacy specifically in older adul
Psychotraumatology — The term 'psychotraumatology' was used earlier than 1995, e.g., by John P. Wilson in the 1980s.
Psychotraumatology — The abbreviation 'PsyT' is not a widely recognized or established professional abbreviation in psychotraumatology, and there is no canonical evidence it was adopted in 2021.
Railway spine — The alternative name 'Erichsen's disease' is not a widely recognized synonym for railway spine; Erichsen's disease is more commonly associated with a different condition, and the term is not standard for railway spine.
Railway spine — The claim that the symptoms were debated at the Imperial Society of Physicians in Vienna in 1886 is not a well-established fact in the widely known canon of railway spine history; the major debates on railway spine occurred in British medical circles, and ther
Rape trauma syndrome — The entry states that RTS identifies three stages: acute stage, outer adjustment stage, and renormalization stage, but the original 1974 Burgess and Holmstrom model described two stages: the acute stage and the reorganization stage.
Rape trauma syndrome — The entry claims that the acute stage can be classified as one of three responses (expressed, controlled, or shock/disbelief) according to RAINN, but RAINN does not officially classify the acute stage into these three responses; this appears to be a conflation
Superior canal dehiscence syndrome — The entry states that typical dehiscent bone thickness is 0.5 mm, but dehiscence is defined as a complete absence of bone (0.0 mm), not a thickness of 0.5 mm.
Superior canal dehiscence syndrome — The entry states that approximately 2.5% of the general population have bone thickness of 60–70% of normal, but the 2.5% figure refers to prevalence of actual dehiscence (complete absence of bone), not a specific percentage of normal thickness.
