Episode Synopsis
Today's Episode
Charlee reviews chapter 17 from the Pediatric Morning Report book. A 3-year-old white female presents to the emergency department with 1 week of cough, purulent sputum production, dyspnea, fever, and failure to thrive. Her symptoms have been steadily wors- ening during this time period. The parents state that they suspect she has pneumonia, because she has already had pneumonia three times in the last 2 years. Seven months ago, she required a 2-week course of intravenous antibiotics when she presented to a different hospital with the same symptoms. The patient is admitted for further workup of both her acute and chronic symptoms.
