A podcast for patients and families on deciding between the ED and Urgent Care

I recorded this episode of the Cincinnati Children's podcast Young & Healthy with Hannah Carron, one of the Pediatric Emergency Medicine at our institution. It provides succinct recommendations on when to call 911, seek care in the Emergency Department or Urgent Care, when to ask the advice of your primary care provider, and even when virtual urgent care visits are appropriate. Hannah did a tremendous job highlighting some of the most important take home points for patients and families!

Why we do what we do: Ankle injury imaging rules in children

There are several decision rules for ankle injury X-Rays in children. Ankle fractures occur most commonly in 10-15 year olds, and usually result from an inversion injury mechanism. Sprains are far more common and usually involve the anterior talofibular ligament. Let's briefly review some of the existing rules that we use to (hopefully) help us order fewer ankle X-Rays.

An epiglottitis podcast

The epiglottis is the toilet seat of the airway. That’s a useful function. But what if becomes so swollen and inflamed that it leads to airway obstruction and respiratory failure. That’s bad. That’s also what epiglottitis is. You can also call it supraglottitis. Either way you need to recognize this potentially life threatening malady and secure a definitive airway in the sickest patients ASAP.
