The Eye Emergency Manual - Second Edition (2009)

Summary

The consensus clinical guidelines in the Eye Emergency Manual have been updated with feedback from emergency clinicians involved in the project to introduce and evaluate its use. This project involved clinicians in 28 hospital emergency departments in rural and metropolitan NSW over an 18 month period.

Enhancements include an expanded paediatric section, a more detailed chemical burn section incorporating the required irrigation procedure, reviewed triage categories and a consistent approach to onward referral.
