An Ounce of Prevention Is Worth a Pound of Cure

IRVING WEINSTOCK MD1
 1 Assistant Clinical Professor of Pediatrics, New York State University, Downstate, NY Brookdale Hospital Medical Center, Brooklyn, NY

Continuing medical education is being conducted in many overseas sites. The physician who contemplates such trips should be prepared for the more common medical emergencies which may occur to him, his family, or other travelers on such trips. Dr Irving Weinstock, an experienced pediatrician and traveler on such educational programs, has provided a short list of items that he considers useful. Since this journal is dedicated to successful continuing pediatric education, being so prepared may help.

R.J.H.

In preparing for an overseas trip, I have found it useful to include the pharmaceuticals and medical supplies listed in the Table. The journey will be more enjoyable and pleasant, knowing that you are prepared for most contingencies.
