Pediatric Pain Control
Join Dr. Michael Witt for a brown bag ALS lunch discussing pain control in children. Pain medication is often underused in children, perhaps as a result of inexperience with children and the concern of causing harm. Recent studies have shown that infants and young children may experience pain differently than adults and has also been shown to have long term emotional affects on these patients. Spend lunch discussing the practical aspects of assessing and managing pain in a pediatric patient.
