EMS Protocol of the Week - Anaphylaxis (Pediatric)

Lots of suspense from last week’s cliffhanger, I know, but basically, the pediatric anaphylaxis protocol plays out largely the same as its adult counterpart, just with peds-relevant dosing, along with a predilection for dexamethasone over methylprednisolone, particularly for kids less than 2 years of age.

Double check your dosages! Need a reference? That’s what www.nycremsco.org and the protocols binder are for!
