Children's nerve disease network established
A medical network focusing on children’s neurological conditions has linked 29 hospitals from six provinces in eastern China and Shanghai.
Children’s nerve diseases are usually very complicated and difficult to diagnose. The network will set up a database and sample bank to improve the understanding, diagnosis and treatment, said Dr Wang Yi from Fudan University Children’s Hospital on Friday.
“We will also work out guidelines for children’s nerve diseases and promote the them nationwide to regulate clinical practice,” Wang said. “Regular case discussions, a hospital transfer system and training will be supported in the network.”
