In this final talk from the PERUKI stream Tom Waterfield from Belfast talking about the Petechiae in Children or PIC study.
Perhaps it was the story of Ezra and his mum, Sorina, who Tom had treated as a PICU registrar that fuelled his interest in research? But what he recognized, when he went to work in the ED, is that despite having seen the worst possible outcome s is that not all children with a petechial illness have meningo-coccaemia. Our current practice guidelines are based on data from a time before vaccination.
