DFTB Beyond Essentials (Videos+Quiz)
DFTB Beyond Essentials is a follow up to DFTB Essentials which allows us to have a more advanced level of discussion. Where DFTB Essentials covered the core knowledge, DFTB Beyond Essentials takes a deeper dive. We have put together a programme covering key clinical questions we ask ourselves in PEM.
This analysis and discussion will help inform your decision making to deliver effective, evidence-based care.
We will consider the evidence base around questions such as:
This baby’s fever is because of their immunisations, right?
Lumps and bumps – leave, reduce or remove?
Should I stop this baby’s cow’s milk?
This analysis and discussion will help inform your decision making to deliver effective, evidence-based care.
