title: Antimicrobials for non-typhoidal Salmonella infection-does it work?: …reducing waste in child health one intervention at a time.
abstract: Eco-paediatrics is an occasional feature in Evidence-Based Child Health: A Cochrane Review Journal. Our goal is to contribute to the worldwide discussion on reducing waste in health care. In each instalment, we will select a recent Cochrane review highlighting a practice, still in use, which the available evidence tells us should be discontinued.
