PEDS: Iron Deficiency Anemia

Today's Episode Charlee reviews chapter 12 from the Pediatric Morning Report book. A 12-month-old female presents for a well-child care visit. The mother is concerned that the patient is a “picky eater.” She was exclusively breast-fed until she was 6 months old and then switched to formula with the introduction of solids. At 12 months of age, the mother began giv- ing her cow’s milk. The mother states that the patient refuses to eat most vegetables and instead prefers milk. She drinks four 8-ounce bottles of whole cow’s milk per day. Today's Host Charlee Quarless is a 3rd year medical student at Ross University.
