Pediatric Sepsis
Pediatric sepsis hides in plain sight. A baby who won't feed, a lethargic toddler, a kid breathing fast, easy to miss until they fall off the cliff. Erik and Matt break down why kids compensate so well they look fine right up until they don't, and what actually matters in the back of the truck: the pediatric assessment triangle, age-normal vitals, wet-diaper and feeding history, cap refill over SpO2, fluids before hypotension, and resuscitate before you intubate. Plus the down-and-dirty drug math that takes the fear out of weight-based dosing.
