Abstract
GRUPO DE DESARROLLO DE LA GUIA CORA. Consensus on international adoption: Extract from the CORA Guide for paediatricians and other health professionals. Rev Pediatr Aten Primaria [online]. 2009, vol.11, suppl.17, pp.339-348. ISSN 1139-7632.
International adoption (IA) is a social phenomenon on the rise in our country. All children from IA have a history of being exposed to multiple health risk factors. That is why CORA (Coordination Association in Defence of the Adoption and the Fostering) assembled a group of professionals who developed a consensual guide to establish a protocol of pre-adoption medical consultation, initial assessment and monitoring of children adopted abroad. This text is an excerpt from the guide.
