S4E7: Paediatric Retrieval Medicine - PEM bonus with Dr Conor Davis
Ever wondered how to make a referral to The Irish Paediatric Acute Transport Service (IPATS) when working in a tertiary hospital? What is the criteria for transferring a child, when can it be done by IPATS and when should the transfer be organised by the referring hospital? What do you need to have prepared before sending a child and how should you prepare to expect the unexpected? We thought we’d start off the new year as we mean to go on with a paeds bonus episode on the first day of 2024! In this episode EM consultant Dr Conor Davis talks all things paediatric transfers and answers the above questions and more. And seeing as we are thecase.report, we might have even managed to give an EM consultant their own case to tackle! As always, don’t forget to follow us on socials on instagram, twitter and facebook to keep updated with all things TCR. Coffee in hand? Right then, let’s get to it!
