ESPE Abstracts

Background: Pediatric Endocrine Nurses are experts in caring for children with Endocrine conditions. Many nurses do not have the confidence, knowledge and technical skill set to produce poster presentations that allow them to share this expertise.

Objective and hypotheses: This session will give Pediatric Endocrine Nurses an opportunity to hear how a poster presentation can be developed, from an idea to the final product. Nurses will feel empowered to take a question/observation and share it with others via a poster presentation.

Method: Discuss the question/issue, data collection, analysis, literature review.

Results: Review of a poster submitted for ESPE 2016 titled “A Nursing Perspective: Best practices for pubertal suppression for individuals with central precocious puberty and transgender”.

Conclusion: Nurses can develop posters for sharing information with others within their centres, conferences or internationally.
