Year Four
It does not seem possible we are beginning year IV of PREP. Those who have been with us since the beginning will recall that the Pediatrics Review in Education Program, PREP, is designed as a six-year cycle. Each year objectives are developed by panels of pediatricians drawn from practice and teaching for two areas: Recent Advances of importance to the general pediatrician and Topics for Annual Review. Recent Advances cover the entire field of pediatrics, but are limited to information developed in the past six years; Topics are limited to a cluster area with no time limitation. For the 1982/83 Year, the Topics for Annual Review include community health, school health, accidents, poisoning and trauma, athletics and physical fitness, learning disabilities and school adjustment problems, adolescent medicine, delinquency, and drug abuse.
