PMP4: Major Trauma in Children

Resus Council Guidelines

The resus council guidelines are what we should follow for every resuscitation. The guidelines are clear, and have a good summary of all the doses. They are very useful.

As you can see below, the resus council website has many good resources for anaphylaxis (adult and child).

• The anaphylaxis information including doses
• The Anaphylaxis slides - a ready made teaching session!
• The protocol
• Podcasts and discussion about anaphylaxis

I've made a summary of treatment, including the curricular knowledge. Please comment with any suggestions or additions:
