Preparing for a PEDIATRIC Emergency

Описание: The most common pediatric emergencies that require a hospital trip include respiratory distress or severe asthma attacks, which can manifest as difficulty breathing or rapid breathing; dehydration from vomiting, diarrhea, or not drinking enough fluids, particularly in cases of fever or heat exposure; and severe allergic reactions, known as anaphylaxis, which can cause swelling, hives, and breathing difficulties.


Other frequent emergencies include high fevers, especially in infants, head injuries with symptoms like vomiting or loss of consciousness, and severe abdominal pain, which could indicate appendicitis or other serious conditions.



Be great,
