February may be short, but the February @PedCritCareMed has tons to report! Hot off the press today, includes*FREE* #CCC48 Late-breakers, *FREE* #PedsICU Feature articles & the #PCCC18 Abstract Supplement! #FOAM #FOAMed bit.ly/2qa264b

@AlexRotta @DrSimonCraig @ChrisCarrollMD @KatherineSlain You mean this one? ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/29113508 I was just reading it 🧐 ! Both studies are (in my opinion) a must-read for all pediatricians and #PedsICU falks I insist in this conept: #bronchiolitis as a social disease

Today is the anniversary of the first "blue baby" operation, performed by Alfred Blalock on 15-month-old, Eileen Saxon, in 1944. It was conceived of by Blalock, Vivien Thomas, and Helen Taussig. In the photo, Thomas can be seen standing over Blalock's shoulder, guiding him. #CHD
