Air Methods Prehospital EDucation Podcast Ep. 56: The Zebra Call

Air Methods Prehospital EDucation Podcast Ep. 56: The Zebra Call

A common aphorism in the medical community comes from Dr. Theodore Woodward who said in the 1940s, "When you hear hoofbeats behind you, think of horses, not zebras." It's a way of reminding medical practitioners that the most common explanation is usually correct. In other words, Occam's Razor is usually correct. But what happens when the most common explanation isn't correct? What happens when you turn around and find a zebra looking at you? In this month's episode, our team finds a pediatric patient who seems to have had a stroke. Stroke is very uncommon in children, but that doesn't mean it never happens. Listen in as our team starts with the basics, analyzes the feedback, and arrives at their conclusion. Interested in obtaining CE credit for this episode? Visit OnlineAscend.com to learn more.
