I would much appreciate some advice.
I am at present trying to formulate a policy on suturing children,
particularly the under six/seven year age group. The two issues are first-
whether there is a safe and effective topical anaesthetic and second-what
sedation ( in the broadest sense ie. nothing up to GA ) ?
Do many people use TAC? are you still using it in Brighton?
What about intranasal midazolam -- lots of conficting views.
The literature is difficult to sift. Not keen on SHOs using Ketamine.
It's one of those situations where the problem becomes much more difficult
when one tries to put it simply on paper!-or is it just me?
Has anyone out there got a cracking good safe and simple policy?
