This week's episode host Paul Wirkus, MD, FAAP and guest Tim Bahr, MD, FAAP take a deep dive into evaluating newborn jaundice and identifying early signs of hemolysis. We walk through the key elements of maternal testing that set the stage for newborn risk assessment, then explore how to interpret bilirubin trajectories to distinguish normal patterns from concerning trends. Our guests also review the role of the reticulocyte count, what a peripheral smear can reveal, and how these tools come together to guide clinical decision-making. The discussion closes with practical guidance on when pediatricians should involve hematology or neonatology to ensure timely, coordinated care for infants at risk of significant disease. Have a question?

The FDA's Accelerated Approval Program (AAP) aims to bring promising, potentially life-saving medicines to patients sooner by allowing approvals based on surrogate endpoints while requiring timely confirmatory evidence. In this episode, we speak with Bridget Doherty, MPH, MS (Johnson & Johnson Innovative Medicine), and Jeff Allen, PhD (Friends of Cancer Research). Bridget discusses her team's review of the AAP's real-world impact, showing that hundreds of thousands of meaningful life-years have been gained for patients. Jeff shares findings from work strengthening biomarkers as reliable surrogate endpoints—helping define when increased speed can still preserve scientific rigor. We also explore the core access challenge: how payer coverage and utilization management help or hinder patients the AAP is designed to serve. We close with practical policy steps to ensure that earlier regulatory access truly leads to better outcomes for people who need treatments most.

Jordan Sather and Nate Prince deliver a packed episode of MAHA News, kicking off with the CDC's explosive website update acknowledging that claims of “no link” between vaccines and autism are not evidence-based, triggering absolute meltdown across legacy media, pharma loyalists, and blue-state health bureaucracies. The hosts track the political fallout, RFK Jr.'s direct role in ordering the change, and the wave of scientists now admitting long-ignored biologic mechanisms worth investigating. From Bhattacharya and Makary's blunt critiques of captured institutions to Robert Malone exposing the financial corruption inside the AAP and ACIP, the guys highlight a medical landscape finally cracking open. Jordan and Nate also dive into SSRIs, microbiome destruction, gut health, antibiotic overuse, and the soaring chronic-illness rates no one in the old regime wants to talk about. The episode closes with a fiery breakdown of SNAP as corporate welfare, revealing how billions in taxpayer dollars funnel straight into Coca-Cola, Frito-Lay, Walmart, and Big Food, while politicians pretend it's about “feeding the poor.” A fast, funny, and fiercely honest episode charting the scientific and political shifts reshaping U.S. health policy.

Send us a textIn the second installment of our Rethinking Phototherapy series, Ben and Daphna welcome Dr. Daniel Rauch, Professor of Pediatrics at the Hackensack Meridian School of Medicine and Division Chief of Pediatric Hospital Medicine and General Academic Pediatrics at Joseph Sanzari Children's Hospital. Dr. Rauch co-authored the AAP technical report on phototherapy and brings a unique perspective on how light therapy should be understood and applied in clinical practice.This conversation reframes phototherapy as a true pharmacotherapy—an intervention that must be delivered in precise doses with attention to wavelength, irradiance, body surface exposure, and treatment duration. Dr. Rauch explains why more light is not always better, how technology has evolved from “easy-bake oven” style lamps to modern LED systems, and why maximizing body surface exposure often matters more than piling on extra light banks. The discussion also touches on cycling strategies, the value and limitations of transcutaneous monitoring, and the potential of home phototherapy to reduce unnecessary hospitalizations while supporting family bonding.Listeners will gain practical insights into the art and science of phototherapy: how to optimize treatment, minimize harm, and communicate clearly with families navigating jaundice management.Support the showAs always, feel free to send us questions, comments, or suggestions to our email: nicupodcast@gmail.com.

Vidcast:  https://www.instagram.com/p/DQdjEezCeTe/With all the confusion and lack of credible information coming from the usual public health channels, I want to arm all you parents and grandparents with the latest immunization recommendations from the American Academy of Pediatrics.  These guidelines are all based on the latest scientific information which demonstrates that these vaccines are safe and very, very effective at preventing and/or minimizing the effects of sometimes deadly childhood diseases. Now let's review, by months and years, the AAP immunization blueprint. At Birth: The RSV protective antibody nirsevimab up to 6 mos if mom not vaccinated in pregnancy up to 6 mos; 1st dose of Hepatitis B vax. 1 month: Hep B, 2nd dose, to 2 mo.2 months: Rotavirus- RV1 Vax, 2 doses; RV5 Vax, 3 doses, 1st dose; DTaP (Diphtheria, tetanus, and acellular pertussis); Hib (Haemophilus influenzae type b); Pneumococcal; Inactivated Poliovirus4 months: RV1, RV5, 2nd dose; DTaP, Hib, Pneumococcal, Inact Poliovirus, 2nd doses6 months: Hep B, 3rd dose to 18 mo; RV5, 3rd dose; DTaP, 3rd dose; Hib, 3rd dose to 12 mo; Pneumococcal, 3rd dose; Inact Poliovirus, 3rd dose to 18 mo; CoVid, 1 or more doses to 18 yrs; Influenza, 1-2 doses/yr to 6 yrs12 months: Hib, 3rd or 4th dose to 15 mo; Pneumococcal, 4th dose To 15 mo; MMR; Varicella; Hepatitis A, 3 dose series, to 23 mo15 months: DTaP, 4th dose to 18 mo4-6 yrs: DTaP, 5th dose; Inact Poliovirus, 4th dose; MMR, 2nd dose; Varicella, 2nd dose7-10 yrs: HPV, 2 dose series to 12 yrs11-12 yrs: DTap, 6th dose; Meningococcal, 1st dose of 2, second at l6 yrsThese are the vaccines that every child should receive beginning at birth and extending over the first 18 years of life. Look at this as a scorecard for you to follow along with your pediatric team. These days, so many of our families are so mobile, vaccination records may be scattered and not up to date in any single medical record, electronic or otherwise. Your own checklist, either on paper or digital, should be the most complete.I have posted the American Academy of Pediatrics summary chart of all pediatric immunizations on my website at drhowardsmith.com/pediatric-immunizations-2025-6.Summary chart: https://www.drhowardsmith.com/pediatric-immunizations-2025-6AAP guidelines: https://tinyurl.com/467f5c9b#pediatrics #immunizations #vaccines #aap

You want to raise kids who feel confident in their bodies and have a healthy relationship with food. But what happens when you're still figuring that out yourself?Maybe you catch yourself labeling foods as "good" or "bad." Or your child comes home saying something they picked up at school or TikTok ("big back," "fat," "calories")...and your stomach drops. You want to respond in a way that builds confidence, not confusion. But between your own history with dieting, the mixed messages online, and the constant pressure to "get it right," it feels impossible to know what to say.In this episode, I'm joined by pediatrician and author Dr. Whitney Casares, who shares how to navigate food and body conversations with kids at every age. She explains the division of responsibility approach, why authenticity beats perfection, and how to handle those uncomfortable moments at the pediatrician's office.

In this episode, we're diving deep into one of the most talked-about (and often misunderstood) topics in early parenthood SIDS and co-sleeping. Despite the scary warnings you've probably heard from the AAP or your pediatrician, many families still find themselves wondering how to safely sleep near their baby. And honestly? That's a valid question. We'll explore what the research actually says about bedsharing, the science of a baby's biological need for closeness, and how parents can make informed choices that balance safety and connection. You'll hear about the work of James McKenna, Helen Ball, and La Leche League's Sweet Sleep, plus insights from Sarah Ockwell-Smith that bring real-world practicality to this nuanced conversation. If you've ever felt torn between expert advice and your natural instincts, this episode will help you find clarity, confidence, and calm in your family's sleep choices. 00:00 Introduction: The Importance of Safe Sleep Practices 01:18 Personal Story: Transforming a Mother's Sleep Routine 03:28 Newborn Sleep Solutions Guide 07:22 The Science Behind Newborn Sleep 09:06 Interview with Dr. Greer Kirshenbaum 17:07 Understanding Co-Sleeping and Bed Sharing 22:32 Safe Sleep Guidelines and SIDS 28:39 Controversial Topics: Vaccines and SIDS 31:06 Global Perspectives on Safe Sleep 35:22 Purity Coffee: A Healthier Choice 38:43 Addressing Sleep Challenges in Babies 42:16 Embracing Flexibility with a Newborn 44:04 The Importance of Nervous System Regulation 46:11 Building a Support System for New Moms 52:28 Debunking Myths About Newborn Habits 56:47 The Impact of Sleep Training on Mental Health 01:06:43 Tips for Optimal Baby Sleep 01:13:17 Final Thoughts and Resources   Guest Bio: Greer Kirshenbaum PhD is an Author, Neuroscientist, Doula, Infant and Family Sleep Specialist and Mother.

BRUE, Brief Resolved Unexplained Events, are a common and anxiety-provoking condition that presents to the Emergency Department. In this episode we explore the definition of BRUE, contrast it with ALTE, and walk through evidence-based approaches to risk stratification. We'll explore the original AAP framework and two subsequent prediction models to see where the recommendations stand today. This is a classic example of scary event / well child that you will see in the Emergency Department. Learning Objectives By the end of this episode, you will be able to: Define BRUE and contrast it with the older concept of ALTE. Recognize evolving risk stratification criteria Apply evidence-based strategies for evaluation and counseling of infants with BRUE, including safe discharge decisions and the role of home monitoring.

In this episode of The Virtual Curbside, host Paul Wirkus, MD, FAAP, is joined by Kristine Fortin, MD. Listen in to the discussion on what is best when providing care for children in foster care with unique challenges. This week, we discuss how often these children should be seen and how to tailor visits using a trauma-informed approach. We explore when it's appropriate to involve children in their treatment planning, and when their age or developmental stage may limit participation. Many foster youth are meeting a new healthcare provider for the first time and may have limited understanding of their own health - making trust and thoughtful communication essential.

When it comes to a child's backpack, 10% to 15% of body weight is the maximum safe range, according to the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP). For example, a backpack that weighs 6.6 to 10 lbs. (3 to 4.5 kg) is recommended for a child weighing 66 pounds (30 kilograms) 5% to 10% of body weight is recommended for smaller children, those who have longer walks or commute, or if pain is already present Weigh, don't guess — use a bathroom scale to check. If the pack exceeds the range, remove items or split the load The way a backpack fits is just as important as its weight. Always use two straps, keep the pack high and snug, and place heavier items close to the spine Watch for warning signs that a backpack is too heavy, including leaning forward, red strap marks, tingling or numbness, or frequent complaints of back, neck, or shoulder pain

 "Chaos and confusion." That's what the head of the American Academy of Pediatrics says families are up against as the federal government rethinks established science for everything from vaccines to autism. Dr. Susan Kressly was recently in Colorado for the AAP's annual conference. Then, an effort to get girls interested in construction jobs. Plus, we visit "The Gathering Place" which elevates the southwest in the Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center. And, remembering renowned conservationist and researcher Dr. Jane Goodall with her visit to Colorado. 

The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) is heavily funded by pharmaceutical companies, influencing policies that promote more medical interventions for children while reducing parental control The AAP's top priority is to eliminate parental authority over childhood vaccination decisions, replacing it with state or provider control Major child health issues like rising obesity, increasing autism rates, and chronic illness prevention are absent from the AAP's top 10 priorities The AAP uses rare measles outbreaks to justify removing personal and religious vaccine exemptions, despite measles mortality already being near zero before mass vaccination began Ignoring preventive strategies, the AAP's approach sets children up for lifelong dependence on pharmaceutical products rather than building lasting health
