In this mini-episode, Dr. Becky Motykiewicz, a pediatric CRNA specializing in cardiac anesthesia, unpacks the fascinating anatomical and physiological differences between pediatric and adult patients that make pediatric anesthesia a unique specialty. From the neonate's HR-dependent cardiac output and immature baroreceptor reflex to the challenges of managing a smaller, more compliant airway, this episode highlights the critical nuances of caring for young patients. Dr. Motykiewicz also discusses the underdeveloped CNS, immature liver and kidney functions, and the heightened metabolic demands of pediatric patients—all of which require precise dosing and proactive management. Whether you're a student or a seasoned provider, this episode offers valuable insights into the art and science of pediatric anesthesia.
