Pediatrica intensiva: Art & Science of Pediatric Critical Care Podcast artwork

Bridging the gap between literature and practice in pediatric intensive care. Featuring guests from around the world and pediatric intensive care specialists Greg Kelly (Westmead Children's Hospital Sydney), Peta Alexander (Boston Children's Hospital), Karen Choong (McMaster Children's Hospital Canada) and Mike Clifford (Royal Children's Hospital Melbourne) Pediatrica intensiva won’t tell you the answers, because no one knows what they are, but we can give you a chance to hear respected experts talk about what they actually do with some of the toughest problems in our field. Rather than having short episodes on a topic, we have whole seasons. And that gives us the chance to go deep.
