Emergency Medical Services personnel are challenged daily to recognize sick patients, diagnose life-threatening illnesses, and initiate treatment. Outside the everyday experience of managing sick patients are children and neonates. This is a specific group of patients who often present anxiety-provoking diagnostic challenges. Neonates often present with a nonspecific chief complaint or a history of symptoms that may or may not be benign. In order to recognize which neonates will require life-saving interventions, EMS personnel need to remain current on these life-threatening illnesses and their management. This session offers a clinical review to address the recognition, diagnosis, and management of the more common pediatric and neonatal emergencies. The mnemonic "THE MISFITS" is helpful to quickly recall these critical issues. Core: OB/Neonate/Pediatrics
