Podcast #393: Neonatal Vomiting

Author: Peter Bakes, MD

Educational Pearls:

  • Important historical information to elicit is the birth history, feeding habits, stooling habits, associated symptoms, presence of bile, and presence of trauma.
  • Volvulus is a common etiology of intestinal obstruction and is often due to malrotation in utero.

Editor's note: get an upper GI series if there is any bilious vomiting in a neonate. Any time of the night. Wake people up. Transfer if necessary to get the study. This can diagnose volvulus and save bowel.
