ER has become the most successful television series in the world since CHARLIE'S ANGELS. Michael Crichton created the series from his own experiences as a doctor in the emergency rooms, surgeries, and clinics of Massachusetts General Hospital. FIVE PATIENTS is Michael Crichton's true account of the real dramas that unfold live in the ER. A contractor is seriously injured in a scaffolding collapse: a middle-aged deliveryman is admitted suffering from a fever that has reduced him to a delirious state; a young man almost severs his arm in an accident; an air traveler suffers from chest pains; a mother of three is diagnosed with a life-threatening illness.
