The Only Paediatric History-taking Method You’ll Ever Need
<p>Make sure to <a href="https://geekymedics.com/ice/" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank"><strong>ICE</strong></a><strong> </strong>your paediatric patient and their parents and you have a recipe for success! If you’re a GP trainee you can reflect on this in the Data Gathering and Interpretation section of your capability areas — also mentioned in our cheat sheet <a href="https://thereflectivepractitioner.org/" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank"><strong>here</strong></a>.</p>
<p>You can also modify this mnemonic for use in other rotations. In my current adult medical rotation for example, I use PDFS after taking my presenting complaint and history of presenting complaint. The ‘S’ at the end reminds me to also take a gynae history if they’re a lady.</p>
