文献中对患者和家属使用互联网上的医疗信息表示了许多关注。虽然已经做了大量工作来量化互联网上的错误信息,但还没有关于这种错误信息对儿童造成实际伤害的报告。我们提出的情况下,1岁的男孩腹泻的临床过程不仅复杂的不准确的建议,由急诊室医生,但也从互联网上收到相同的建议。
There has been much concern expressed in the literature about the use of medical information on the Internet by patients and families. Although much work has been done to quantify the misinformation available on the Internet, there have not been reports of actual harm to children resulting from this misinformation. We present the case of a 1-year-old boy whose clinical course of diarrhea was complicated not only by inaccurate advice given by the emergency room physician, but also by the same advice received from the Internet.
