Practice Documents - Paediatric
The documents below are for health care
professionals.
It should be noted that these documents reflect
what is currently regarded as a safe and appropriate approach to care.
However, as in any clinical situation there may be factors which cannot
be covered by a single document. These documents should be used as a
guide, rather than as a complete authorative statement of procedures
to be followed in respect of each individual presentation. It does not
replace the need for the application of clinical judgment to each individual
presentation.
