Treating Pediatric Pain Equitably

How do you treat the pain of pediatric long bone fractures? Is it equitable? In this episode the authors of Racial and Ethnic Differences in Emergency Department Pain Management of Children With Fractures of Pediatrics May 2020 discuss if our care is equitable and why it may not be. It is an important discussion that pushes us to think about our perception of pain and how race and ethnicity impact our approach. ***Please rate us and leave us a review on iTunes!
