Pediheart Podcast #381: Evaluation And Management Of Unexpected AV Block In Children

This week we feature a collaboration episode between the Pediheart Podcast and the PedsCrit Podcast in which pediatric critical care experts Drs. Alice Shanklin of Northwell Medical Center and Dr. Zac Hodges of UT Southwestern discuss the evaluation and management of heart block in children. What should the clinician be thinking when encountering a previously healthy child with heart block? When is pacing indicated and how should it be performed? Who is a candidate for transvenous or transcutaneous pacing, who is not and why? Drs. Pass, Shanklin and Hodges review many aspects of this in an episode from the PedsCrit Podcast. https://www.pedscrit.com/
