Pediatric EM Procedures

Pediatric Procedure Videos

In comparison to adult Emergency Medicine, the pediatric realm does not often lead to critical care procedures. Fortunately for the children, they do not require advanced procedures as often as their adult counterparts.  Unfortunately for the physicians who care for the pediatric patient, the lower overall number of pediatric patients requiring procedures means that we may become less adept than we would like.  I use these videos to help during Pediatric Procedure labs and have found that they can help solidify those synapses that we have neglected.

    I enjoy taking care of patients and I finding it endlessly rewarding to help train others to do the same. I trained at the Combined Emergency Medicine and Pediatrics residency program at University of Maryland, where I had the tremendous fortune of learning from world renowned educators and clinicians. Now I have the unbelievable honor of working with an unbelievably gifted group of practitioners at Carolinas Medical Center. I strive every day to inspire my residents as much as they inspire me.
