New Guidelines Related to Tick-Borne Infections
It’s summer — so what do you need to know about Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever (RMSF), and ehrlichiosis, the two most common local tickborne infections associated with fever? During this season, when evaluating a febrile child, establishing if the child has had a tick bite or is tick exposed (lives or has visited an area where ticks have been seen) is helpful.
Listen in as Mary Anne Jackson, MD, a pediatric infectious diseases specialist with Children's Mercy, discusses the latest guidelines related to Tick-Borne infections.
