This excellent video was developed at Cincinnati Children’s and features some of my colleagues. It provides a step by step overview on how to deal with cough and congestion, including a really well done section on nasal suctioning with saline. It would be perfect to share with a family with a child with a URI or bronchiolitis.
Repetitive Read Syndrome is affecting Radiologists across the globe. Symptoms include dictations including the same phrasing and suggesting clinical correlation repeatedly. We can help our Radiology colleagues by avoiding unnecessary chest X-ray orders for most children with respiratory problems such as bronchiolitis, asthma exacerbations, croup, or first-time wheezing.
Did you know that chest X-Rays are not recommended for most children with respiratory problems such as bronchiolitis, asthma exacerbations, croup, or first-time wheezing. Choosing Wisely recommends that doctors and all medical providers have detailed conversations with patients and their families about why X-Rays are unlikely to give new information or provide any additional reassurance. They also expose young children to unnecessary radiation. This video features Dr. Vincent Alexander who conducts a simulated discussion with a parent of a child with a respiratory illness.
This is a blog post and a podcast episode designed to disseminate the important work of Choosing Wisely, an initiative of the the American Board of Internal Medicine Foundation, the goal of which is the spark conversations between clinicians and patients about what tests, treatments, [...]
Here is a podcast episode that I recorded for Cincinnati Children's show "Young & Healthy" entitled "Parents, We Need Your Attention: Babies and Kids are Sick, Children’s Hospitals are Full, Wait Times are Long." It addresses why our EDs, Urgent Cares, and Hospitals are so busy, and offers caregiver focused advice on Bronchiolitis management.
OK, so the cat's out of the bag. Bronchiolitis, RSV specifically, as well as the delta variant of COVID-19 are running wild in the Northern Hemisphere. any of you have seen precious few cases of bronchiolitis this far in your careers due to the paucity of cases last winter. Therefore this post is designed to share three key resources I've published recently that discuss bronchiolitis from a a clinician focused perspective.
High flow nasal cannula may help infants with bronchiolitis from getting worse. It also might not. What's clear is that the literature has not sufficiently answered all of our questions. There's a lot more that we could stand to learn about this popular therapy.
I recently authored a post on the Cincinnati Children's blog entitled, Bronchiolitis: A New Parent’s Guide to One of the Most Common Winter Illnesses. I share a video of one of my children when they had bronchiolitis, and its been incredibly helpful in providing education over the years.
This edition of Pediatric Emergency Digest is chock full of learning on vomiting in children, pulmonary embolus (in grown ups), renal tubular acidosis and the use of high flow nasal cannula in bronchiolitis.
