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.

Alexis reviews Case 48 from the Pediatric Morning Report book.
A 7-week-old term male infant is brought in by his mother to the emergency department (ED) for the second time, with the chief complaint of episodes of pauses in breathing dur- ing sleep. These episodes are associated with perioral cyanosis lasting about 15 to 20 seconds, which resolves with gentle stimulation, such as tickling of his feet. Sometimes, these episodes are associated with pallor. His past medical history is significant for low Apgar scores requir- ing observation in the neonatal infant care unit (NICU), where he was noted to have periodic breathing. He was first seen at the ED at 1 month of age for short apnea and pallor, where he was observed overnight and diagnosed with a brief, resolved, unexplained event (BRUE). On physical examination, temperature is 36.9°C, heart rate is 130 beats/min, blood pressure is 87/50 mm Hg, respiratory rate is 32 breaths/min, and oxygen saturation is 97% on room air. He is well nourished, well developed, and not in respiratory distress. The breath sounds are clear. The rest of the physical examination is normal.

Charlee reviews chapter 12 from the Pediatric Morning Report book. A 12-month-old female presents for a well-child care visit.

She drinks four 8-ounce bottles of whole cow’s milk per day.
