With the current pediatric respiratory surge, we are all seeing patients in our respective EDs for much longer than we may be used to.


Please see the recorded zoom and slides below of the Forum CT-EMSC Executive Committee held to review the current state of the surge, usage of HFNC (High Flow Nasal Cannula) in children and a discussion on a HFNC Guideline to bring back to your ED.
