Australia s and New Zealand s first set of clinical guidelines for children s head injuries has been created by a network of specialists based at the Murdoch Children s Research Institute (MCRI).
The guidelines, developed by the Paediatric Research in Emergency Departments International Collaborative (PREDICT) and published in
Emergency Medicine Australasia, will allow emergency department clinicians to best diagnose and treat children s head injuries while reducing unnecessary exposure to radiation from CT scans. They also address head injuries in children with underlying problems, such as a bleeding disorder.
A 103MPH drink-driver who led police on a 14-mile pursuit from Chester city centre to Sandiway has been spared jail. Matthew Oliver York, 23, previously pleaded guilty at the first opportunity to dangerous driving and drink-driving when he appeared at Chester Magistrates Court on Tuesday, January 5. Appearing at Chester Crown Court for sentencing on Tuesday, February 2, York, of Church Street, Davenham, Northwich, was told by Judge Anna Vigars he had jeopardised not only his life but that of the police officers in pursuit that night. Prosecuting, Philip Clemo said York – driving a Mercedes with a personalised number plate – reached speeds of 100mph three times during the pursuit, but bizarrely also slowed down for two roadside speed cameras.
