BNN Paediatrics Annual Meeting 2021
Our 3rd BNN Paediatric Meeting (2nd presencial) took place on Queen’s College in Oxford.
Over the two days we had great opportunities to meet colleagues, network with other professionaith BNN (adult injectors), and we also had very high quality presentations full of very interesting content and updated evidence based research.
The highlights were our forum of pros and cons of injecting toxin in children and rethinking our practices based on that talk. We also had our last presentation time saved for case presentation, were he ha very unique opportunity to share experiences, discuss difficult/ interesting cases and get different opinions of approaches for treatment of spasticity, dystonia.
We had also some great news about Merz having now the license for injecting toxin over 2 years old to treat drooling.
