Umgang mit dem Pädiatrischen Notfalllineal (PädNFL) – Schritt für Schritt

Jeden Tag und weltweit werden Kinder bei Notfällen durch Medikamentenfehler bedroht und kommen auch tatsächlich zu Schaden. Systematische Übersichtsarbeiten schlussfolgern, dass jede Reduktion der kognitiven Herausforderungen bei der Berechnung der Dosis hilft, Fehler zu vermeiden [1]. Nachgewiesen ist dieser Effekt aber bisher ausschließlich für das Pädiatrische Notfalllineal (PädNFL) [2] [3].
