3rd Annual Jason French Pediatric Hospital Medicine Symposium

Aurora, CO US
October 6, 2023

The Jason French Pediatric Hospital Medicine Symposium commemorates the life and service of our colleague, Jason French, who tragically passed away in the summer of 2020.  Dr. French was a beloved member of the Section of Pediatric Hospital Medicine at Children's Hospital Colorado, and he served on the planning committee for this conference. Moving forward this conference will replace our "Clinical Concepts and Conundrums in Pediatric Hospital Medicine" symposium

This conference will focus on the care and management of hospitalized children and neonates. A case-based format will be used to review and discuss the etiology, diagnosis, and management of critically ill infants and children.

    Target Audience

    This conference is designed for all health care professionals who participate in the care and management of hospitalized children and neonates.

    Learning Objectives

    • Review frequently heard questions and clear up common confusions that arise from both old school and cutting-edge diagnostic tests for infections in children.
    • Review the current guidelines regarding the management of Pediatric DKA as well as an update on known complications that occur during treatment.
    • Explore intersections between pediatric mental health and hospital medicine.
    • Define surgical co-management and discuss the creation of a surgical co-management team at Children’s Hospital Colorado (CHCO), including its benefits, challenges, and future aspirations.
    • Analyze and discuss interesting pediatric patient cases.
    • Examine social media/digital platforms, clinical decision support tools, AI, multiomics and precision medicine focused on Neonatal care.
    • Interpret and manage CBC results.

    Learner Outcome

    After attending this event, the participant will report an increase in knowledge related to the hospitalized pediatric and neonatal patient and increase confidence caring for the pediatric patient population in the rural hospital setting.
