ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Pediatric patients don’t fail the way adults do—and that’s exactly why we miss it.
In Episode 4 of Reducing the Pucker Factor, Kyle Goodnight joins us to break down one of the biggest gaps in prehospital care: recognizing and treating pediatric respiratory distress early.
We discuss:
- Why work of breathing is the most important assessment tool
- The danger of relying on pulse oximetry alone
- How early CPAP use in pediatrics is changing outcomes
- The mindset shift EMS providers must make
- A powerful real-world story that sparked a national push for change
This episode is for anyone in EMS, critical care, or emergency medicine who wants to improve pediatric patient outcomes and reduce hesitation in high-stress calls.
