Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
A previously healthy, 7-year-old African-American male presented to the emergency department with a high fever and signs of compensated shock. With this case presentation, we review the clinical evaluation of a child in shock and discuss the importance of early recognition and treatment. Additionally, the varied etiologies of shock in a previously healthy individual are discussed. |
