Wardround 4i8

Happy new year for 2008. May your knowledge expand, ignorance regress and wisdom blossom.

The reading for Tuesday 8 january will be The practice of clinical medicine as an art and as a science , John Saunders, Journal of Medical Ethics 26:18-22 (2000).

The two minute tutorial theme for friday is immunisation: there is a medscape CME session which covers five main areas (a page each). Your task is to read the page allocated to you and translate it into UK guidance for the rest of us.

There is a 'Green book' issued in the UK with guidance on immunisation so you could look into that for inspiration. You can find an on-line version here.

Pneumococcus NS
HiB SZ
meningococcus MG
influenza CG
polio SS

Two minutes maximum, keep it concise and precise with an A4 size handout to make it clearer. Don't put all the info on the handout, just the essentials.
