Abstract
In paediatrics, a wide variety of procedures and interventions (protocols) are standardized. The entire hard-copy collection of paediatric protocols used in Malta (47 to date) was put together as a website, and is hosted on the hospital intranet. Some protocols consist of Excel spreadsheets that are used for the calculation of fluids and drugs. This archive has proved very useful for medical and paramedical staff in the Department of Paediatrics, both in the hospital and in peripheral health centres and hospitals. Changes or new protocols may be uploaded at any time, with instantaneous updating of the archive. The website was created, and is maintained and updated by the author, thanks to the ease with which modern software allows users to create hypertext markup language.
