Breath holding spells
  • video-EEG monitoring can be use in non diagnostic cases.
  • Cyanotic breath-holding spells most commonly occur around 1 year of age with a range of six months to four years.
  • Iron deficiency anemia is more prevalent in children with breath-holding spells.

Smoke inhalation + + +

Electrolytes

BUN and CR,

Toxicology screen

CO-oximetry 

  • CO toxicity should be suspected in any patient who presents following smoke inhalation unless co-oximetry shows normal carboxyhemoglobin.
Cold exposure
  • CXR
  • Mild hypothermia: core temperature 32 to 35°C ; patient presents with confusion, tachycardia, and increased shivering.
  • Moderate hypothermia: 28 to 32°C patient presents with lethargy, bradycardia and arrhythmia and decreased shivering.
  • Severe hypothermia: below 28°C patient presents with coma, hypotension, arrhythmia, pulmonary edema, and rigidity.
