  • Short & to the Point

    I like that there’s a wide variety of topics, some that can even be informative for adults, and you can pick a choose what you want to listen to based on your needs. The episodes are quick but direct and, so far, seem to have evidence based data for their assertions

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ep. 194: Reducing Risk and Improving Care for Pediatric Sepsis
Q: What's different in the 2026 International Surviving Sepsis Campaign Guidelines for Children compared with 2020?
Key changes include addressing more high-quality evidence gaps, clarification of screening approaches, earlier recognition strategies, and a stronger emphasis on comprehensive hospital programs and long-term follow-up, while questioning some assumptions about oxygen delivery and other interventions.
Ep. 194: Reducing Risk and Improving Care for Pediatric Sepsis
Q: Are kids particularly vulnerable to sepsis, and what did your recent work show about national incidence?
Recent work indicates roughly 18,000 pediatric sepsis cases annually in the United States, with about one in five hospitalizations ending in death; the data come from up-to-date, objective criteria rather than billing estimates, helping standardize research and policy efforts.
Ep. 192: Feeding the Future: How Nutrition Can Transform Children’s Health
Q: What practical steps can clinicians and parents take now to advance food as medicine for kids?
Clinicians should collaborate with dietitians to implement nutrition therapy alongside medical care, advocate for universal school meals, and utilize tools like MyPlate alongside culturally relevant guidance; parents can start by seeking nutrition counseling when obesity or nutrition-related risks are present and encouraging healthier food environments at home and in schools.
Ep. 191: Navigating the Infodemic: Making Sense of Health Information
Q: What practical steps can individuals take to reduce the spread of misinformation in their daily online behavior?
Pause before posting, evaluate the source, check publication date and conflicts of interest, distinguish between misinformation and disinformation, and share only information you would want your own child to see.
Ep. 191: Navigating the Infodemic: Making Sense of Health Information
Q: What can leaders, clinicians, and influencers do to become credible messengers in this space?
Equip a broad base of leaders with science-translation skills, encourage empathy, provide accessible, culturally competent content, and leverage multiple platforms to reach wider audiences while maintaining accuracy.
