Paediatric surgery

Trials and tribulations of an aspiring paediatric surgeon

Notes

The Royal Australasian College of Surgeons Annual Scientific Congress 2011

The 2011 Royal Australasian College of Surgeons Annual Scientific Congress (ASC) will not feature any Paediatric surgery section. Apparently, they only attend the ASC every 2 years which means that 2012 will be the next ASC in which Paediatric surgery is featured. This seems quite bizarre to me, especially when some other obscure topics make a yearly appearance e.g. the Surgical history section.

Searching using PICO

Although it’s not entirely clear as to how this search engine works it appears to search for articles in PubMed and other ‘evidence based medicine websites’. This link: http://www.tripdatabase.com/search/wizard will direct you to the PICO search page. I’m not sure if it offers any alternative to searching PubMed without any assistance, but it’s an alternative.
