Peds ENT resources

[lykyamy00]

i just started M3 and i have 3 peds ent clinic days (2 general and 1 otology) next week! the attending asked that i read up on some of the most common peds issues.

i've done some searching on line (will be checking uptodate today), but i'm wondering what should i focus on and if there are any good resources i can read over before next week?

thanks!

[OtoHNS]

Chronic otitis media vs. Recurrent acute otitis media (know the difference between the two and the basic pathophysiology of OM).

Indications for tympanostomy tubes, and understand what a tube is, what it looks like, and how it works.

Indications for tonsillectomy + adenoidectomy in kids.

Treatment algorithm for sinusitis in kids.

If you know all that stuff reasonably well, you'll be ahead of the game.

Good tubes and tonsils info here: http://www.entnet.org/guide_lines/guidelines.cfm
