A #MedEd topic ⬇️ that I learned about as a historical curiosity at med school in the 1990s…. But it’s going to have to feature as a differential diagnosis for next 20 years + however many years it takes to get measles vaccination coverage back up to herd immunity levels.

What is SSPE?
Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) is one of the most feared complications of measles. It is rare, but always devastating: a progressive, fatal brain disorder that emerges years after a seemingly normal recovery from measles. 🧵

Los Angeles child dies from rare measles complication years after recovery
The county health department said the death is a "painful reminder" of how dangerous measles can be in unvaccinated people.

Big hello to #PedsSky #PaedsSky #IDSky #MedSky!

I’ve moved over from Twitter! (@DrMaxxC)

I’m Maxx, I like loose leaf tea, going to gigs, and I work as a children’s doctor.

I post mostly about Paeds, ID, #MedEd, and the occasional ramble about different types of tea!

Let’s not reduce the art of seeing unwell children to a process of “medicine by numbers” pleads @helensalisbury.bsky.social in the @bmj.com this week.

More reasons to cherish relationship based medicine as discussed by @francesmair.bsky.social recently.

“Do you remember that child you saw two days ago?” All doctors dread what might come next: we fear that something bad has happened because we missed a clinical sign or made a poor judgment. This kind of worry keeps us all alert, even at the end of a busy day as the duty doctor. Hospitals have developed scoring systems to help medical and nursing staff gauge how sick a child is, and the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health has suggested that these should be rolled out in the community.12 There could be advantages not only in improving detection of children at risk of deterioration but also in shared understanding and ease of handover. However, research recently published in the British Journal of General Practice found that these scores weren’t useful in primary care.3 They lacked both sensitivity, meaning that they missed a significant proportion of children who needed hospital care, and specificity, advising escalation for many who could safely be looked after at home. These findings don’t come as a surprise to practising GPs. Early warning systems used on a hospital ward were developed for a different baseline population, as the children there have already been judged to be significantly unwell. Most of the children we see in the community, fortunately, are not.

Morning!

As promised, I'll be posting from the Association of Paediatric Palliative Medicine conference today.

This is a sensitive topic for most, and an intensely difficult one for a few.

Tag will be #APPM if you want to search. (I don't think the APPM has bsky yet)

It was a pleasure delivering a presentation at our Softlanding Induction Day today for newly starting paeds IMG colleagues. One of my key aspirations is equal representation and opportunities in academic paeds.

It is always pleasure to support colleagues in achieving this goal!
