This year I had a patient who came in with a fever of 107.6! This is the highest fever I have seen, but we frequently see fevers in the 105 range.

What did we do? Checked the child’s mental status. It was normal. Looked at vital signs. His heart rate and breathing were fast, which is typical with fevers. His oxygen level, blood pressure, and skin coloring were good.

So…we gave ibuprofen to see how he looked with a better temperature. We gave him a drink. We made sure he didn’t have a serious infection after taking with mom and doing a full physical exam.

He was diagnosed with influenza. He was not dehydrated and was breathing fine. His heart rate and breathing normalized as the ibuprofen kicked in. Without any further intervention the child was able to go home.

When a child has a fever, it’s not the number that matters, but how they are otherwise acting.
What do you notice when you watch this video?

I hear wheezing when he breathes out. I notice his breathing is fast. His belly is moving up and down. He is using extra muscles around his rib cage to breathe. We call these retractions.

This little guy is working hard to keep oxygen going to his body. For kids that have asthma, a virus is a common trigger for an asthma attack.

Sometimes it’s mild. Other times kids end up hospitalized needing multiple medications. This patient is getting an albuterol treatment to open up his lungs.

Viruses that cause bronchiolitis, like RSV, can also cause wheezing in patients that don’t have asthma. Albuterol is usually ineffective in these cases. Instead, we support the babies with oxygen and IV fluid is needed while the body heals itself.

The wise brought up Xofluza, which is another anti-viral medication used to decrease symptoms of influenza or prevent it after an exposure.

The take home points for me are that Xofluza is great in that it’s a single dose, but it is more expensive. It also is not approved for children under age 5.

Tamiflu has a generic version, so is cheaper and can be given to babies as young as two weeks old. It’s given o we 5 days, so that is challenging

There isn’t a huge difference between how effective they are, but both work better the sooner they are given. Before the 48 hour mark is the goal.

Most of the time, children with influenza can be cared for at home. There are a few reasons to head to the emergency department, however:

- Your child is having a hard time breathing

- Your child is getting dehydrated: they have a dry mouth, aren’t making tears, or are going more that 8 hours without urinating

- Your child has fever of 100.4 or higher for five days in a row

- Your baby is less than 2 months old

- Your child’s mental status seems different

I expect them to be tired, clingy, cranky, and downright miserable when fever is high. I don’t expect them to stare off into space, have seizure-like movements, or not respond to your voice. If anything like that happens, head in for an evaluation.

The short answer 🥁🥁🥁…it depends.

Oseltamivir, also known as Tamiflu, is an antiviral medication. There are other medications used to treat influenza, but this is the one most studied in children.

Tamiflu works best if given in the first 48 hours of illness. We give it mostly to children under age 2, and those with other medical conditions. It’s also given to those requiring hospitalization.

Tamiflu can be given to children who live with a baby less than 6 months old or with someone who has a compromised immune system.

Tamiflu can have side effects, including nausea (8-10%), vomiting (10-16%), diarrhea (7%), and headaches (2 to 17%).

It will only shorten the illness by about one day, so most of the time it isn’t worth it for healthy children.
If your kiddo comes down with influenza, here are a few suggestions to help them feel better:

- You do not have to treat fever, but if your child is miserable, give acetaminophen or an NSAID like ibuprofen

- Encourage your child to drink, drink, drink! It’s okay if they don’t eat solids. Just make sure the fluids include some electrolytes and glucose

- Get plenty of sleep and rest

- An anti-viral like Tamiflu (oseltamivir) can be helpful in certain situations, but it has some side effects…more on that in the next post

Over the last couple of weeks, my ER shifts have been FULL of children with influenza. That’s not surprising since last year there were over 33 million cases of influenza in the US alone!!!

Influenza is caused by a virus. It is spread through respiratory secretions when an infected person sneezes, coughs, or just breathes near you. You can also get sick by touching a surface previously touched by an infected person. Once you’ve been exposed, the virus incubates in the body for 1-4 days before symptoms start.

Children with influenza can look a little different than when they have a cold virus. Fevers are often high, and they look miserable! Common symptoms include headache, bodyaches, and fatigue, in addition to respiratory symptoms of cough, sore throat, and congestion. Children under two years of age are more likely to add G.I. symptoms like vomiting and diarrhea.

You are most contagious in the first 24-48 hours. Keep your children at home and away from high risk individuals if at all possible for seven days and until they have had no fever for 24 hours.

Raise your hand if influenza came to visit your house for the holidays!

Check out this video on bronchiolitis to learn about how to care for you little ones at home, what to watch for, and when to go to the emergency department.

Share with anyone you know that has an infant at home this winter.

What has your experience been with bronchiolitis?
It’s that time of the year. Everyone seems to be catching a cold, and your little ones seem to be cycling through virus after virus. Most of the time these respiratory viruses clear up on their own and children can be cared for at home. Sometimes, however, a virus can cause a more serious illness called bronchiolitis.

Bronchiolitis affects the small airways of the lungs, causing swelling and mucus production. This makes it hard harder for children to get the oxygen they need. Babies are especially prone to getting sick with bronchiolitis.

In the next few post, I will be talking about bronchiolitis, what causes it, how to treat it at home, when to go to the doctor, and what treatment options we have available to us in the hospital. Please drop any questions in the comments below.

If you’re looking for a more natural mosquito repellent, but still need excellent coverage to prevent disease, then oil of lemon eucalyptus (OLE) is a great choice. It is extracted from a tree native to Australia and then refined to increase the naturally occurring ingredient PMD from 1% to 65%. So, the caveat is the end product is quite different than the unprocessed tree oil.

Key Points:
- Protection from PMD only lasts two hours, so reapply frequently
- OLE has not been studied in young children, so avoid in those kiddos under 3 years
- It has not been adequately studied as a tick repellent
- OLE is not the same as lemon eucalyptus essential oil
