Advantages:
- Lower infection rate then central lines
- Used in the outpatient setting
- Can be used for several weeks to months
- Duration of PICC lines may be from 4 weeks to 6 months
(although they have been known to be functional for more than 300 days)

Our patient probably has one of the acute Porphyrias. Confirmation of the type eluded us unfortunately since genetic analysis is expensive. Probably AIP

Giving #Paracetamol in cases of mild #Viral #fever may be harmful
1. It is a common practice to give paracetamol (acetaminophen) to children or adults suffering from viral fever. Research evidence shows that we may be causing more harm than good by this practice.

2. Fever is not a disease; it is a symptom of viral infection. Paracetamol can not kill the virus.
Acute infections, including those due to Corona virus and other viruses, often stimulate a febrile response.

#MedTwitter #Pediatrics #neurotwitter
Acute Necrotizing Encephalitis (ANE) is a rare, but fatal complication of influenza infections in children. It presents with all the other symptoms of the flu, but also altered mental status and seizures (which may be difficult to initially distinguish from febrile seizures).
ANE leads to significant cerebral edema and can rapidly lead to cerebral herniation and death.
And for those that recover, less than 10% have complete neurologic recovery.
