Algorithm for management of ingestion of multiple high-powered magnets

PEG 3350: polyethylene glycol 3350.
* If magnet might be, or is known to be, a high-powered type (neodymium, or "rare earth" type).
¶ Radiographs do not reliably distinguish between single and multiple magnets, since it is possible for magnets to stick together or overlap on a radiograph and be misdiagnosed as a single magnet.
Δ The following "magnet precautions" should be used for any child who has ingested one or more magnets: Remove any magnetic objects nearby, avoid clothes with metallic buttons and belts with buckles, and ensure that no other metal objects or magnets are in the child's environment that could be accidentally ingested. Maintain these precautions until the magnet has passed out of the gastrointestinal tract.
