Many parents know that swallowing pills can be a real nightmare for some children 💊😱 Hence, this is a skill that must be taught calmly and playfully to kids. This week's #LightningLearning is advice paediatricians can give parents that are struggling with healthcare at home.

IFEM President Dr Jim Ducharme opening the RCEM Global Emergency Network study day at the RSM. Collaboration, sustainability and other thought-provoking challenges to international work. Looking forward to the rest of the day @RCollEM @IFEM2

Huge enthusiasm - clinicians at Pan Asian Trauma Outcomes (PATOS) meeting for quality improvement in trauma care. BUT severely hampered by lack of resources. Trauma biggest killer of young, so surely trauma QI should be priority for UKAid? @RCollEM @UKaid @TARNaudit @NHSEngland

The Executive Committee of PERN held an on line meeting yesterday. Current and future research projects were discussed. Pedro Rino as representative of the PEM research network in Latinoamerica, RIDEPLA participated as a new member of the family. They were very welcomed.

@apsmunro There’s also cry-sis.org.uk which is a UK based charity that I often direct the parents of my patients to

@apsmunro We’d also recommend these articles from the blue journal: adc.bmj.com/content/103/11… And the green journal: ep.bmj.com/content/98/6/2… for anyone who’d like to read a little more about this often-overlooked problem. ^DW

Most babies cry a bit. Some babies barely cry at all. Some babies do almost nothing except cry. This can all be normal. It's come to my attention not many people have heard of the website purplecrying.info I would HIGHLY recommend it for paeds people. #FOAMPed #PEM

What a great 'little' study in @ADC_BMJ . Particularly love the parental recommendations, shedding light on how to approach this conversation. Well done
