Febrile seizures are common in the first 5 years of life, and many factors that increase the risk of such seizures occurring have been identified. Initial evaluation should determine whether features of a complex seizure are present, as well as identifying the source of fever. In this episode, Dr Roger Henderson provides an overview of febrile seizures in childhood and also looks at risk factors, referral criteria, treatment options and prognosis.Access episode show notes containing key references and take-home points at: https://gpnotebook.com/en-GB/podcasts/paediatrics/ep-154-febrile-seizuresDid you know?

Febrile seizures are seizures (abnormal electrical activity in the brain) that occur in the setting of a fever. About 2-5% of all children will experience a febrile seizure in their life. They occur between 6months and 6 years with a peak around 12-18 months of age. Although common and benign, they can be scary- especially the first time your child has one in front of you. What do you do if your child has a seizure? If it was a febrile seizure, will it happen again? Should you pre-medicate for fever?Join us as we welcome Dr. Carey Wilson, M.D. to the show. Dr. Carey Wilson is a Pediatric Neurologist and Epileptologist as well as the Medical Director for the Comprehensive epilepsy clinic at Intermountain Healthcare Primary Children's hospital in Salt Lake City, Utah. I am lucky to say I knew her when she was an intern and have gotten to watch her become an amazing physician and mother. 

Recorded onsite at IDWeek 2024 in Los Angeles, the hosts of Let's Talk ID and Febrile discuss what they value most about the conference, including the opportunities to support ID workforce development.

In this episode of MedPOD AFMC, Brig (Dr) J Muthukrishnan is joined by Dr. Suchi Acharya, Associate Professor in the Department of Paediatrics at AFMC, Pune, to discuss febrile seizures in children. The conversation covers key aspects of febrile seizures, including their causes, clinical presentation, and risk factors. Dr. Acharya shares expert insights on initial evaluation, distinguishing simple from complex febrile seizures, and appropriate management strategies.

Welcome to PICU Doc On Call, A Podcast Dedicated to Current and Aspiring Intensivists.I'm Pradip Kamat coming to you from Children's Healthcare of Atlanta/Emory University School of Medicine and I'm Rahul Damania from Cleveland Clinic Children's Hospital. We are two Pediatric ICU physicians passionate about all things MED-ED in the PICU. PICU Doc on Call focuses on interesting PICU cases & management in the acute care pediatric setting so let's get into our episode.In today's episode, we're bringing together some of the best content from our previous podcasts to present a comprehensive clinical case. We're also excited to share with you some of the most highly cited articles from the past year, presented in a practical, case-based format. This episode will offer you valuable insights into the latest research findings while also highlighting the real-world application of this knowledge in a clinical setting.We'll start by presenting an interesting case of a toddler who was transferred to the PICU due to increasing respiratory distress:A 2-year-old male was brought to the emergency department with a chief complaint of increased work of breathing and URI symptoms, including a cough and runny nose. The child had no significant past medical history, was not taking any medications, and had no known allergies. The child was up-to-date on immunizations, and there were no significant sick contacts.The family brought the child to the emergency department after noticing a significant increase in work of breathing, including the use of accessory muscles, nasal flaring, and chest retractions. The initial physical exam revealed tachypnea and decreased breath sounds on the right side. The child's vital signs were concerning for respiratory distress, with a heart rate of 170 beats per minute, respiratory rate of 50 breaths per minute, and oxygen saturation of 85% on room air. Chest X-ray revealed right lower lobe pneumonia.The child was started on supplemental oxygen, and broad-spectrum antibiotics, and trialed with albuterol. Despite initial treatment, the child's respiratory distress worsened, and the decision was made to transfer the child to the PICU and place the patient on HFNC 1.5 L/kg. Upon admission to the PICU, the child's vital signs were still concerning, he was afebrile, with a heart rate of 180 beats per minute, respiratory rate of 60 breaths per minute, and oxygen saturation of 85% on 1.5L/kg HFNC at 75% FiO2. Given the persistent respiratory distress, the decision was made to intubate the child in the PICU for acute hypoxemic respiratory failure. Shortly after intubation, a central line is placed in the R internal jugular vein.To summarize key elements from this case:2-year-old with a prodrome of URI symptomsIs otherwise previously healthy with no significant medical history or allergiesDeveloped respiratory distress and diagnosed with pneumoniaTransferred to PICU, intubated for respiratory failureLet's fast forward in the case and talk about a scenario that frequently arises in the PICU. It's hospital day 2, and the patient's RSV swab is positive, and we're seeing some improvement on the X-ray....

Today's episode of "PICU Doc On Call," with Dr. Pradip Kamat and Dr. Rahul Damania, pediatric ICU physicians, delves into intriguing case and management strategies within the acute care pediatric setting.This episode focuses on a 2-year-old child transferred to the PICU due to pneumonia-induced respiratory distress. As the child's condition deteriorates, intubation becomes necessary to address acute hypoxemic respiratory failure.We discuss the significance of minimizing unnecessary blood cultures in febrile patients with central lines in the PICU. A study implementing a quality improvement program is referenced, which successfully reduces blood culture rates, broad-spectrum antibiotic usage, and CLABSI rates without impacting mortality or length of stay.Next, we'll explore the comparison between a high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) and continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) in pediatric patients experiencing respiratory distress. Findings from a randomized controlled trial revealed that HFNC is non-inferior to CPAP in terms of time required for liberation from respiratory support.We further investigate the application of pediatric early warning scores (PEWS) and automated clinical prediction models to identify patients at risk of deterioration and transfer to the PICU. The importance of employing clinical judgment and a combination of assessment tools to determine the need for transfer is emphasized.Lastly, we'll highlight the significance of screening for social determinants of health in critically ill children and their families. A study demonstrates that a substantial number of participants had unmet social needs, underscoring the importance of screening to provide appropriate interventions and resources.To summarize, this podcast episode covers key topics such as reducing unnecessary blood cultures, comparing HFNC and CPAP in respiratory distress, utilizing PEWS and clinical prediction models for patient identification, and the importance of screening for social determinants of health.Be sure to listen in entirety as we discuss the case.

Transfusion reactions are adverse events associated with the transfusion of whole blood or one of its components. They range in severity from minor to life-threatening and can occur during a transfusion, termed acute transfusion reactions, or days to weeks later, termed delayed transfusion reactions. Transfusion reactions may be difficult to diagnose as they can present with non-specific, often overlapping symptoms. The most common signs and symptoms include fever, chills, urticaria, and itching. Some symptoms may resolve with little or no treatment. However, respiratory distress, high fever, hypotension, and hemoglobinuria may indicate a more serious reaction. All cases of suspected reactions should prompt immediate discontinuation of the transfusion and notification of the blood bank and treating clinician. Learn in this podcast episode the evaluation and management of transfusion reactions and highlights the role of interprofessional team members in collaborating to provide well-coordinated care and enhance outcomes for affected patients.   About our Speaker:  Dr. Aaron Tobian received his medical degrees from Case Western Reserve University. He is highly involved with the transfusion medicine community serving on the Association for the Advancement of Blood and Biotherapies' Board of Directors and is president-elect of the board. Dr. Tobian has authored more than 300 peer-reviewed articles in journals, including The New England Journal of Medicine, JAMA, Blood, and TRANSFUSION, and has been featured on BBC World Service, Today Show, National Public Radio, and USA Today. He is board certified in clinical pathology and blood banking/transfusion medicine and divides his time between research and clinical service.
