Episode 29 - On The Wards: It's Getting Hot in Here | Febrile Neutropenia

from Bloody Minded · host Bloody Minded Crew

Its time to hit the hot girl summer of haematology (we're in Australia after all) but also the hot boy winter and Autumn and Spring. Because our patients are hot all year round and sadly all night shift and possibly all throughout your ward round. Welcome to our next On The Wards episode looking at fevers in the haematology patient with a focus on the management of febrile neutropenia. There's a lot to cover in this jumbo sized episode and we're super happy that Dr Alison Chandler agreed to return after last time.
