PEMLit is a resource for doctors and healthcare workers interested in Paediatric Emergency Medicine. We believe in FOAM and support GMEP.

Each month, we rummage through the published literature to bring you an appraisal of the latest journal articles in PEM.

We include a summary of the paper in the form of our own FCEM-style abstract, so those of you who do not have access to the full article can appreciate the headlines from an independent appraiser. For authors – please do not be offended by our appraisal of your work! We exist to encourage continual improvement, both in clinical practice and in the standard of published literature. We are always questioning.

We also believe that all clinical trials should be registered and reported, irrespective of their findings. If you do too, please sign the All Trials petition.

If you have an article you think we should appraise, please get in touch: you can email us at PEMLit@gmail.com or via twitter (@PEMLit).
