Are we facing a glut of information, media and science. Personally, before a child that we see in clinic, emergency department or inpatient always say, for a problem of medical diagnosis and treatment, to look first and then the Nelson Pubmed and then some other database.
Sometimes that happens on the tables and the "counters" of the hospitals, inside the folders, there are articles on articles printed in time to find a way relevant to the case, and it happens that this article be read almost briefly, in the conclusions and / or in the abstract. If we think anything bad ... indeed. Knowledge in 2011 also based on information and training that is certainly more comprehensive, easier to find, trivially, versus only 10 years ago. With an extra risk that is to ask: how to discern and understand the "information overload". What is it? What is useful for the treatment and care of the child and his family?
We also know that this knowledge does not belong to all hospital wards and clinics and all we can only say that it is a pity, because the knowledge and resources, "information" should be more widely disseminated.
We are pleased to report, always keeping in mind the rule of Nelson (first thoughts, assumptions, assistance and then maybe the Internet) Database precisely this, for free online on Pediatric Emergency Medicine. One area, the pediatric emergency, always in my humble opinion, a bit too inflated, although in truth the Emergency should not belong exclusively to the terms and resuscitation techniques.
In this database can be found next to a near real-time update of the work of interest published in the literature, a discussion list, also this true, participatory, interesting.
Nothing more than a useful tool for comparison with international realities.
If you have to tell us other useful sites for culture and knowledge in children give us notice. We look forward to report them. Thanks
