AZEMCast is THE competitive emergency medicine podcast. The host, Dr. Aaron Leetch, moderates a panel of emergency physicians who will go head to head navigating a clinical case from the Ring Down to the Work Up to the Dispo. Panelists are awarded points for their approach to the case and their clinical application of evidence-based medicine. However, points are deducted for weak arguments or reliance on experience-based medicine. The panelist with the most point at the end of the case will win the opportunity to soapbox about whatever aspect of EM they are most passionate about. We hope this podcast will model the knowledge, skills and approach that will help you take the best care of your patients. Posts ≠ medical advice http://uanow.org/participate

episode 43: April 2019 - Neonatal Fever - Part 1
Happy April everyone!
We interrupt our series of Skin and Soft Tissue Infections (right before the pus starts!) to bring you a timely review of neonatal fever. There is some great, exciting new research coming on our evaluation of febrile neonates to help us do the most for these kids with less. This is field that has had multiple breakthroughs in treatment but few changes in the evaluation for almost 25 years! But before we bring out the new, we need a brief history lesson on why febrile neonates are traditionally so scary. Dr. Chan Lowe, Pediatrics hospitalist extraordinaire, joins us for a discussion of why we do the blood-urine-csf-antibiotics-admit dance for all these febrile neonates when most of them are viruses. So, grab your hyper-color T-shirt and your Gameboy as we travel back to the 90’s to learn why you should take proceed with caution with febrile neonates.
