PEDIATRIC EMERGENCIES WITH DR. MOTYKIEWICZ | EP38

In this episode, Pediatric CRNA Dr. Becky Motykiewicz dives into the most critical pediatric anesthesia complications you need to know—whether you're just starting out or already deep into practice. We break down airway issues like laryngospasm and bronchospasm, and explain how to manage these high-stakes situations effectively. We also touch on common postoperative concerns like stridor and emergence delirium, and why pediatric patients desaturate and destabilize faster than adults. You'll learn how to prevent and treat hypotension, bradycardia, and even hypoglycemia. Most importantly, we emphasize the life-saving importance of precise drug dosing and early recognition of emergencies. Stay tuned to the end for a tool that can help you avoid the most common medication errors in pediatric cases.
