چکیده انگلیسی
Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the extent and the future of paediatric surgery performed in Scotland outside of the designated surgical paediatric centres. Materials and Methods: An anonymous questionnaire was sent to all 111 Scottish members of the Association of Surgeons of Great Britain and Ireland. There was a response rate of 69%. Results: Overall, 45% of responders operated on children. This was independent of the surgeon's age but was related to the type of hospital that the surgeon worked in. Eighty-four per cent of responders had a lower age limit under which they would not operate and 94% stated that there were specific circumstances where they would not operate. A mean of 18.5 elective procedures (range 0-250, median two) and six emergency procedures (range 0-30, median five) were carried out by each surgeon operating on children under the age of five per annum. Only 13% of responders thought that their successor would operate on children. Conclusions: Non-specialist paediatric surgery in Scotland is currently provided by a significant number of surgeons whose successors will not continue to provide a comparative paediatric service. This has implications for local provision of care, emergency management and capacity of existing children's hospitals in the future
