Choking babies, seizing kids, and floppy infants turning blue...all of these events are significantly anxiety inducing for both emergency providers and families alike. On this episode, Dr. Patrick is joined by Dr. Manish Shah, a pediatric emergency medicine physician and research expert from Texas Children's Hospital. The discussion will begin with the finer points of febrile seizures and then branch off into the "artist formerly known as ALTE" - the BRUE. Follwing this episode you'll be much better prepared to deal with these patients along with their parents and families.
