National Child Abuse Awareness Month With Dr. Lauren Burge, Child Abuse Pediatrician & Dr. Andrea Sebastian, Child Abuse Nurse Practitioner: Part 1 – Abusive Head Trauma
April is National Child Abuse Prevention Month. Join me for a very informative conversation with Dr. Lauren Burge, Child Abuse Pediatrician at Le Bonheur Children’s Hospital in Memphis, TN, and Dr. Andrea Sebastian, Child Abuse Nurse Practitioner at Le Bonheur Children’s Hospital. Both are assistant professors at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center. In this episode, we discuss Abusive Head Trauma (AHT). Learn what age groups are at the greatest risk and why. Drs. Burge and Sebastian discuss the things that trigger this behavior, how the diagnosis can be missed by providers, and the controversy playing out in the court system with this traumatic injury. We also discuss tips for coping with a crying baby and the stress that brings to parents. Providers can help parents deal with this frustration by educating them on options for coping.
