Acute Pediatric Resuscitation - keep calm and resus on

Pediatric Resuscitation: this podcast offers an in-depth look at emergency care for children, focusing on three critical areas. Addresses pediatric shock and arrest, detailing its principles, causes, survival rates, and the importance of high-quality, uninterrupted compressions and ventilations. We examines septic shock in children, highlighting its prevalence, varying hemodynamic presentations, and the crucial role of timely fluid resuscitation and antibiotic administration. Finally, we discuss Brief Resolved Unexplained events (BRUE's), outlining their presentation, diagnostic considerations, and disposition strategies, while also emphasizing the benefits of family presence during pediatric resuscitations.
