Episode description
The application of the best available evidence sometimes leaves you deciding which systematic review of RCTs is the best, and sometimes scrabbling in the tattered remnants of case reports. This podcast takes you across that spectrum from thinking about zinc supplementation for pneumonia in western Europe (https://adc.bmj.com/content/104/6/605.1) to the removal of a VP shunt in a child with appendicitis (https://adc.bmj.com/content/104/6/607 )… who also have a VP shunt, obviously. And we reference Baby Shark and LazyTown too (https://adc.bmj.com/content/104/6/605.2).
