  • Slamming the nurse practitioner profession

    Shame on you Holly Wayment for discrediting a nurse practitioner’s clinical judgement in diagnosing and treating our patients! UT Health is comprised of numerous physicians, nurse practitioners, physician assistants and other advance practice providers who strive to provide the best care possible for our patients and families. It is disheartening to hear, on a public podcast, that you would slander anyone on your own team.

  • A well intentioned podcast

    Audio for the interview is fine, once you get past the intro which still needs adjusting.

    My issue as a pediatrician is with the interviews themselves. Great guests with knowledge and expertise are limited somewhat by Ms. Wayment’s lack of medical knowledge. Her questions would be fine for the lay person who has a low base, but for practitioners/providers, it would be much better to have a professional doing the interview or at least making sure Holly’s questions are some they think appropriate... more

  • Great program for pediatrics

    The talk by Dr. Brooks is especially helpful on the recent Asthma guidelines and SMART therapy.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Neurosurgery Update: Plagiocephaly vs. Craniosynostosis—When to Refer
Q: Can you tell us about the ideal age window for helmet therapy to be the most effective?
Helmet therapy is most effective when started very early, while the skull is still soft and growth potential is high; as the child approaches 8-10 months its effectiveness diminishes, and earlier referrals lead to better outcomes and smaller surgeries.
"Let the Babies Eat: Revolutionizing Infant Feeding and Allergy Prevention"
Q: What is the recommended timing for introducing allergenic foods to infants?
Introduce allergenic foods around four to six months of age and keep them in the diet regularly, balancing evidence with parental readiness and risk factors such as eczema, while avoiding unnecessary elimination diets.
Not Just Food Poisoning: Salmonella in Young Infants Can Turn Deadly
Q: Why is it important to perform a full workup in very young infants even if they look well?
Because young infants can have invasive disease that isn't outwardly obvious, a full workup including blood culture and possibly lumbar puncture is necessary to rule out sepsis or meningitis.
Not Just Food Poisoning: Salmonella in Young Infants Can Turn Deadly
Q: How do you decide between antibiotics and observation in young infants with Salmonella gastroenteritis?
If the blood culture is sterile and the infant remains clinically stable with good hydration, clinicians may opt against antibiotics; if the culture is positive or the infant is ill, cultures and possibly IV antibiotics with careful monitoring are warranted.
Not Just Food Poisoning: Salmonella in Young Infants Can Turn Deadly
Q: What red flags should raise concern for invasive disease in infants with Salmonella?
In infants, particularly under four months, any signs of altered mental status, poor perfusion, lethargy, fever with poor intake, or abdominal tenderness should prompt blood culture and possible hospital evaluation because invasive disease risk is high.
