About this listen
In Episode 2 of our paediatric mini-series, we dive into the most common causes of wheeze in children—Asthma, Bronchiolitis, and Croup. Dr Andy Tagg walks us through how to clinically differentiate between these conditions and what to do in the pre-hospital setting.
Whether you're a student or practicing paramedic, you'll gain confidence in:
- Recognising the subtle and not-so-subtle signs of respiratory distress
- Differentiating between upper and lower airway conditions
- Tailoring your approach to the underlying cause of the wheeze
- Deciding when to escalate care or transport rapidly
- Using bronchodilators, adrenaline, or supportive measures appropriately
- Don’t Forget The Bubbles – Detailed breakdown of paediatric respiratory presentations
- Local guidelines on paediatric asthma, bronchiolitis, and croup
- Airway and respiratory assessment tools for paramedics
Wheeze is one of the most common paediatric presentations—but not all wheezes are the same. This episode gives you a practical framework to recognise and respond to the three big hitters: asthma, bronchiolitis, and croup.
