I have had many requests off-list for copies of the protocols that I collect (in fact many more requests than contributions of protocols!).
This makes me think that we are wasting time by duplicating work up and down the country. I have written to Martin Shalley asking if the BAEM website would have space for CDU Protocols in downloadable format. I would suggest that there should be no quality control and that the site would simply have the title, source and an editable document to download (there may of course be several Protocols for the same condition from different sources).

Good idea to have these on BAEM website. Or anyone with their own website
volunteer to host them? You would have you name attached and henceforth
they would become the (insert your name here) Protocols and by default
become national standard - like "Manchester Triage" did.
