  34. Thematic examination of SUIs involving children in London Aim To identify themes and learning from Serious Untoward Incidents (SUIs) to help inform the work of the Children’s SCN Methodology • SUIs involving children requested from STEIS 2008 - 2013 • Those indicating system failure identified n = 86 • Full report requested from Trusts/PCT/CCG • 59 responses received from 29 organisations • Common themes identified and collated

  36. Failures of Care • Half of all children subsequently found to have meningococcal infection are sent home from the first primary care consultation • Approximately 75% of admissions of children with asthma could have been prevented with better primary care • Over a third of short stay admissions in infants are for minor illnesses that could have been better managed in the community
