It covers the paediatric side of TBI care, including bloodwork from a small blood volume, non-cardiogenic pulmonary oedema, neurological posturing and breathing patterns. It finishes with Misty’s later complications, including low blood pressure, seizure-like activity and tachycardia, how each was managed, and her recovery.
