2017 | Guidelines & Standards
The Guidelines for Basic Paediatric Neurological Observation provide direction for local development of bedside neurological observation protocols, in order to enhance existing skills and to ensure consistency of paediatric neurological assessment within and across different organizations. It is intended to enhance and build on current knowledge and skills. For the individual patient, this provides a baseline from which changes in the patient’s neurological status may be identified, reported, and managed in a timely manner. These Guidelines were developed by the Neurosurgery Education and Outreach Network (NEON) in collaboration with Provincial Neurosurgery Ontario.
