Clinical Implications for Down Syndrome

For a more in-depth look at the role of medical and nursing professionals in caring for those with Down Syndrome, MedScape today has posted research articles with clinical practice guidelines for patients with Down Syndrome. These can be viewed at http://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/532190_1 (You will need to log in to MedScape to view this, but most of us already have the free accounts...) These guidelines change very rapidly and are often updated based on current research. This is a great example of the success of evidence-based-practice. In fact, due greatly to improved medical and nursing care, the average life expectancy for a baby born with Down Syndrome has increased from 25 years in 1983 to 56 years today!
