Crack the Case: Safety Planning and Suicidality
May 17, 2024
Death from suicide amongst older kids and teens surpasses those from major medical illnesses like heart disease and cancer and has only been increasing worldwide over the past 20 years. As pediatricians, we play a pivotal role in early detection and prevention of suicidality. Recently the AAP has recommended screening adolescents at every health encounter, providing a safety net for intervention even when knee pain or acne are the chief complaints. But when a flag is positive, what do we do as pediatricians? We weren’t trained for this! In this week’s episode we hope to instill tools to help decide who needs emergency support, who can go home, and how to safety plan in a busy clinic setting.
Ethics of Harm Reduction in Pediatrics
May 3, 2024
Joining together with patients and families in pediatrics can present challenges, particularly when it involves convincing adolescents to follow medical recommendations. There are times when less than ideal compliance to a care plan is undertaken. This can leave clinicians in a confusing situation where they may not know what to do; where they are unsure how to do good for the patient and respect the adolescent’s assent and dissent. This can lead us to having to consider a “least worst” option or path forward. On this episode we will talk to clinical ethicist Joel Wu who will talk about the ethical considerations around a “harm reduction” approach to these clinical situations.
