Fractures pédiatriques

Le référentiel médical TREKK est une collection des meilleures ressources et évidences sur divers sujets. La collection est constituée par une équipe de synthèse des connaissances à l’Alberta Research Centre for Health Evidence (ARCHE) et par une équipe de spécialistes qui contribuent au contenu médical TREKK.

L’équipe de synthèse utilise un cadre hiérarchique des données probantes en forme de pyramide « 4S » (voir le modèle “4S” Hierarchy of evidence), pour répondre aux besoins des parties prenantes. Pour ce faire, l’équipe effectue à priori une recherche de la littérature à partir des bases de données scientifiques (Cochrane Library, PubMed, TRIP Database) et des moteurs de recherche internet (Google, Google Scholar). Les résultats sont organisés en 5 volets de présentation :

En collaboration avec l’équipe de synthèse des connaissances, les spécialistes qui contribuent au contenu TREKK sélectionnent les items pertinents, présentés ci-dessous. Le référentiel médical TREKK n’est pas conçu comme liste exhaustive du sujet, mais plutôt comme liste sélectionnée par un consensus d’experts : c’est une liste de ressources fondées sur des données probantes à date, pertinentes, et utilisables au Service général des urgences médicales. Les ressources à libre accès sont privilégiées (c’est-à-dire, disponibles à tous, gratuites, et sans abonnement nécessaire).

Un grand merci aux spécialistes cliniques et à l’Équipe de synthèse des connaissances qui ont dirigé le développement de ce référentiel médical.
