Paediatric Intensive Care

Barry Peter, 2017

Overview

One in 70 children require admission to paediatric intensive care (PIC) during childhood. Junior doctors frequently rotate through PIC, managing acutely ill children. The specialty is diverse, encompassing a vast range of illnesses. PIC consultants must be generalists, requiring broad paediatric knowledge alongside expertise in anaesthesia and surgery.

Who it's for

• Paediatric junior doctors rotating through intensive care.
