Can’t get enough of Bubble Wrap? The Bubble Wrap Plus is a monthly paediatric journal club reading list from Anke Raaijmakers, working with Professor Jaan Toelen and his team at the University Hospitals in Leuven. This comprehensive list is developed from 34 journals, including major and subspecialty paediatric journals. We suggest this list can help you discover relevant or interesting articles for your local journal club or allow you to keep a finger on the pulse of paediatric research.
This month’s list features answers to intriguing questions such as: ‘How can we diagnose paediatric syncope?’, ‘Do preterms off positive pressure support have a higher incidence of cerebral hypoxia?’, ‘Can we use pictograms to evaluate abdominal pain?’, ‘What works best in IUGR neonates: umbilical cord milking or delayed cord clamping?’ and ‘Can virtual reality hypnosis reduce procedural pain?’.
You will find the list is broken down into four sections:
