Toxicology Season 1 Episode 2: Decontamination and Elimination

What this episode covers

<br /> This is episode 2 of season one of the Toxicology series that Suzan Mazor, the Medical Director for Toxicology at Seattle Children&#8217;s, and I are putting together. This follow up episode focuses on a decontamination and elimination in the poisoned pediatric patient and offers many pearls that will serve as a foundation for upcoming episodes &#8211; including why Ipecac is no longer prescribed to every 4 month old!<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <a href="https://cchmc.cloud-cme.com/default.aspx?P=20">I am now proud to offer CME through Cincinnati Children&#8217;s.
