After nearly 3 years of low disease burden, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and influenza are infecting children at extraordinarily high levels, leading to frequent hospitalizations and overburdened children’s hospitals around the world.

During prior waves of the COVID-19 pandemic, pediatric intensive care units (PICUs) supported adult critical care by admitting younger adults. In this webinar, experts discuss the epidemiology and clinical management of RSV infection in the PICU. They also discuss how adult ICUs can return the favor to PICUs, assisting with the care of critically ill adolescents and helping preserve systems of care for all children.

Moderator: Ryan C. Maves, MD, FCCP

Panelists: Mary A. King, MD, MPH, and Deanna Behrens, MD

Join Frank T. Leone, MD, MS, FCCP, Chair of CHEST’s Tobacco/Vaping Work Group, for an interview with Brian King, PhD, MPH, the recently appointed Director of the Center for Tobacco Products (CTP). The CTP is the Food and Drug Administration arm responsible for carrying out the law commonly known as the Tobacco Control Act, which gave the agency broad authority to regulate the manufacturing, distribution, and marketing of tobacco products. 

Their conversation touches on key priorities for CTP, the enforcement capacity of the agency, updates on the evaluation of electronic cigarettes, and the goals of reducing nicotine content in cigarettes. Finally, Dr. King shares advice on how you—a member of the chest medicine community—can become more engaged in these types of issues.
