Most fevers in children are of viral origin, yet the approach to a febrile child is often concerning for any physician. Because in rare cases, fever can have a bacterial origin and could lead to fatal consequences. Moreover, there has been an overabundance of advice, opinions, recommendations, and suggested treatments, creating enough doubts in the physician’s mind regarding the approach to such subjects.

In this webinar, Dr. Bhaskar Shenoy will be discussing an approach to short duration fever in children.
