Pediatric Emergency Treatment Guide


A draft version of the "Pediatric Emergency Treatment Guide" will soon be available for the hospitals in Eastern Bhutan. It is a continuation of the Protocol that is already available in the Paediatric ward at MRRH for last two years. I prepared the Protocol when I joined as a Pediatrician here in Mongar two years back.This will help the junior doctors in districts to manage children with acute illnesses more appropiately, thereby saving a number of precious lives.


Feedback from the hospitals will be gathered and final version will be printed in the form of a book in due course of time.I would like to extend tons of thanks to Dr Karma, GDMO, Lhuntse Hospital ,who has voluntarily typed the initial version.
