The highlights
GPs are accused of (1) not treating asthma in kids properly (2) sending half meningitis cases home (3) admitting too much "minor illness" that could be managed at home (4) using drugs for kids which have not been tested in paediatric population.
dr roscoe ->'If half the cases are sent home, that means that half of all cases of meningitis are spotted straight away.. Given that they are a minute percentage of our hot and unwell kids I think that statistic is in fact excellent. I got into this argument about cancer cases seeing their GP up to 3 times before being referred, letter eventually in the BMJ. '
sephiroth->'"(2) sending half meningitis cases home (3) admitting too much "minor illness" that could be managed at home"
Point 2 would say we are being too offensive, while point 3 would indicate we are being too defensive?? Make your mind up you wazzock??'
