Paediatrician accused of misconduct | The Guardian | Guardian Unlimited A controversial paediatrician allegedly accused a grieving mother of hanging her 10-year-old son, the General Medical Council in London was told yesterday. Professor David Southall, a consultant paediatrician at North Staffordshire hospital, Stoke-on-Trent, acted as "detective or crown prosecutor" while telling the mother she had drugged the boy and then wrapped an adult belt around a curtain pole before buckling it round his neck, the disciplinary tribunal was told. He also advised the local authority that she was suffering from Munchausen's syndrome by proxy - where parents induce or fake illness in their children - and was a "high risk" to her second son, a warning which led to the boy being removed from his home by social workers. www.guardian.co.uk /uk_news/story/0,,1947017,00.html   (274 words)

Issues in Medical Ethics The first controversy that came up was when we felt neither the paediatrician nor the neurologist understood the scope of their respective specialisations (and communicated with each other accordingly). Since for routine problems we had to be in touch with the paediatrician, and because we were already under his care, we requested the neurologist to discuss the case with our paediatrician. However, we did panic and take her for emergency care to the hospital and our paediatrician's response was to recommend that we increase the dosage of Eptoin and/or add a more powerful drug. www.issuesinmedicalethics.org /071mi011.html   (1580 words)
