Originally recorded for Dont Forget The Bubbles, Damian Roland, Ally Munro and Ian Lewins - The Three Muskapeers - have a chat about the current literature around COVID and other current issues in paediatrics.

Accepting the odd sandwich form a drug rep is fine, right? Well maybe not as we talk to Dr Chris van Tulleken (yes he of the brilliant Operation Ouch!) about the influence of the pharmaceutical industry in paediatrics.

This podcast was originally recorded and broadcast in September 2019 for Dont Forget the Bubbles

A bit of a different episode this week. Something I have been asked several times is "How did you go about creating and publishing your podcast?" so in this episode I try and explain. What kit you will need, how to go about recording and some top tips to learn from my mistakes.

We all want a positive outcome for any child attending our ED but recognise that doesn't always happen. But how often to adverse events happen, how serious are they and what can we do to prevent them? In this podcast we talk to Dr Amy Plint from the Children's Hospital of Eastern Otario in Canada who has recently published a study looking at exactly these questions in the BMJ Quality and Safety Journal. The article is open access and can be found here:

Lots of kids have minor head injuries. Lots of kids vomit. Lots of kids vomit after head injury but do they really need a CT brain? Dr Helen Newsome, Clinical Fellow in PEM in Sheffield, wondered the same question and so tried to find the answer. She published her findings in the Archives of Disease in Childhood in December 2019 and we chat to her about this paper.

In this very special episode of the podcast, we are delighted to welcome GP, columnist and broadcaster Dr Ellie Cannon on to chat about working as a GP during the COVID-19 pandemic, why she been an advocate for wearing face coverings, and her involvement in ongoing coronavirus vaccine studies.

We talk to Dr Jon Adamson, Consultant in PEM in Birmingham, about his recent paper "The Fifteen Minute Consultation: The Limping Child" published in the June 2020 Edition of ADC Education and Practice.

What should we look for in the atraumatic limping child? When should we investigate and what do we really not want to miss?

We return after lockdown as we speak to Dr Simon Clark - the Vice President for Policy at the RCPCH - to discuss the College's response to the question that has arisen during the pandemic; "Where have all the sick kids gone?!?"

In this special podcast edition we talk to Paediatric Infectious Diseases clinical research fellow Dr Alasdair Munro about what we know so far about COVID-19 and children.

This talk is based on the blog Alasdair wrote along with Dr Alison Boast for 'Don't Forget The Bubbles' which can be found here:

In our 50th episode we return to discussing some original research published in the Archives of Disease in Childhood as we speak to lead author Dr Robert Scott-Jupp. Does having resident paediatric consultants reduce the number and 'quality' of acute admissions? And is it financially worth it?
