Nightwatch: Treating Pediatric Patients - Top 6 Moments | A&E

looks like an 11 year old unresponsive but breathing the caller states she thinks that the patient took a sleeping pill so i guess this is a uh got into the parents medication sort of thing yo sound like that's probably what it is so we get a call for an overdose but the odd thing is that it's an 11 year old i mean when you have small children that take medications not meant for children and dosage is not meant for children i mean no matter what they take i mean basically it's a poison i mean it's no different from them drinking drano or any other you know cleaning agent fire departments here healey's here 320 what you need okay hold up hold up when we get on seeing keely and the fire department already there and the girl she's just acting really strange she's kind of like restless sleeping [Music] so what what like what's the story they have no idea what's going on with it they don't know if she got a hold of something again the mama just got home they didn't know what she had gotten a hold of they didn't know what time she started acting like that she truly did have a decreased level of consciousness so i'm trying to figure out and write over there what you know what is child overdose on what did she take and i think for the most part most medics would agree with me that that the cows with children are very emotionally taxing especially when they're they're truly sick i'm just gonna flop around i believe i saw it hanging hold up sweetheart just hold daddy i don't know sugarcoat get the iv in um i think the biggest issue was you know the child not really knowing what's going on i mean hey kids are strong all right mama i know all right i know mama [Music] good job so look baby you can calm your nerves a little bit okay she's doing all right she's breathing good she's got good oxygen going to her brain and everything everything's looking okay right now we just got to find out maybe she took something that's all okay look come have a seat up here darling come on but her vitals were okay so she was caught in this weird state of where she would kind of wake up a little bit and then go back into a state of unconsciousness new orleans ems to ochsner west bank for a pediatric patient report hey it's dan with new orleans ems unit 3220. i'm in route to you with an 11 year old female um it's kind of weird how she has these brief moments of lucidity where she kind of like wakes up like in a terror and sees us in the truck and when she sees us it scares the hell out of her and she falls back to sleep like that's pretty much what it seemed like she did that repeatedly all right what happened she took something right to do this in texas when she's living with her grandmother for some reason she's getting an appeal she'll take like not really knowing what they are that's your takeaway she won't know what it is i never had that problem with her right right right yeah so what they're going to do they're going to do a talk screen on it and then we'll see how much you know they should have adam on the system or she whatever she had in her system we'll definitely find out the hospital i think this is a great lesson why children need to be kept away from prescription medications because they can really affect the child much greater than they can affect the adult [Music] in my brain i was thinking no way there's just no way someone pepper sprayed a baby was walking by and sprayed these people with the mace for no reason the baby's got some redness to his chest i think he's just really irritated right let's get him in the truck his lungs sound okay how long does this happen okay that's all right this poor little baby is red from head to toe and has snot and saliva that is just running [Music] so you can see he's all frozen yeah first thing is to get into a controlled environment we wanted to make sure that he wasn't having any kind of breathing problems [Music] i know i am so sorry this happened how old is he i'm coming in with a seven month old male patient got pepper sprayed how did he get peppers some random person just came to uh pepper spray a party of people that were in the area child was being held by the parents and just got caught up in the pepper spray for us sadly there's nothing we can do the best thing for this baby is gonna be to get him to the er and take as much milk as they can find and pour it all over his skin that's sad but that's new orleans for you so nine year old female feeling weak we're headed to a call for a nine-year-old girl that's having uh weakness for an extended amount of

seizure poultry and a forward with fire so we're going to a six-year-old who's having a seizure i wonder if he's got a history or a fever he's a little old for february seizures and if they're at six years old you're potentially going to be new onset or a kid with a disability but we'll see whenever we get there as someone who had seizures when i was a child i feel bad for him thankfully i grew out of him but i missed out on some things i hope this kid's as lucky as i was i hope he grows out of his seizures did you call me request me okay i have been here before i was gonna say i remember you did he have a seizure with us last time once we get on scene and i began speaking with the mom and the patient i realized i've treated him before and i remember he has an underlying seizure disorder hey major how are you buddy can you see me hey buddy he doesn't have a brain tumor or anything like that does he just the history of the seizures what's your name i see the patient's postictal he's confused this little boy is not having a seizure right now he could have another seizure a prolonged seizure could kill him and that's why we want to get him in the hospital at any point has he come out of it and like talked to you he did okay when you saw me at this point ice cream hey mom i'll probably get you to kind of hold on his upper half while i'm trying to get an iv name you're okay big guy with children i like to get an iv very quickly while they're posting so that way it's not as traumatic of an experience for him so that if he has another seizure we can give him medication for it hey buddy how you feel fine okay your mom is right behind you can we check your temperature real quick you open up your mouth real wide say ah man you're doing good good thank you 98.3 this mom is clearly concerned and worried about her kid as a future dad i can relate as a parent you always want what's best for your child she's treating her son the way i hope that i would
