Abstract

The Personal Assessment for Continuing Education (PACE), part I, appears to be living up to its expectations of providing a guide for areas that need reinforcement, clarification, and updating. See table in the PDFfile. Since its distribution in our area we have had a number of calls from colleagues inquiring about question 75 of part I, multiple-choice questions: "Treatment of acute kerosene poisoning should include which of the following?" The correct answer (E) includes "(4) Administration of ipecac." It came as a surprise to many practicing pediatricians that emesis was now being advised for a petroleum distillate ingestion.
