· Readability: Are the guidelines easy to read? Do they make sense?
· Presentation: Is the layout clear?
· Acceptability and generalizability: Do they fit into practice in your own country? Would the guidelines as written cause problems, or antagonise anyone?

Dear Colleague,
We would like you to consider participating in the BlueBerry study. This academic study, on the initiative of Pr Habré, University of Geneva, will analyze the safety profile of dexamethasone after tonsillectomy in children compared to placebo. We are currently submitting this study to our Ethics Committee, as well as to the Belgian authorities. In that, we can act as National Coordinator for this study. If you would like to participate in this study, please send us an email with your contact details as soon as possible before March 10th. We can then include your center in the submission. Please refer to the leaflet available here for further information.
Please send your mail to: françoise.degroote@huderf.be, who will act as National Coordinator.
Do not send an email to the Swiss center as they will not handle the submission in Belgium.
Best regards,
