This paper describes the evolution of a weekly case conference devoted to teaching child development to the pediatric staff on a hospital division devoted to the care of young infants. A format involving live demonstration of developmental assessment is seen as a stimulating and effective way to convey information about child development to pediatricians. A case example illustrates the advantages of this conference to facilitating pediatric observations, and early recognition of developmental problems. | lld:pubmed |
