Abstract:
:Paediatric admissions to a general ITU are briefly reviewed. Although it may not be an ideal arrangement it is suggested that children can be safely cared for in such a unit. The problems created by the child with acute upper airway obstruction are discussed to demonstrate the way in which the unit is organized to receive acutely ill children.
