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: ‘What is the 25th centile for oxygen saturation in a healthy preterm?’, ‘What is the best severity scale for acute bronchiolitis?’, ‘Is mometasone useful for sleep-disordered breathing in children?’, ‘Can we predict the risk for recurrent acute otitis media?’, ‘What are the parental attitudes towards the use of placebo pills?’ and ‘What does the household transmission of influenza A looking like?’.
You will find the list is broken down into four sections:
