We’re joined by Juhee Lee, MD, to discuss de-labeling drug allergies and why reassessing reported allergies can be an important part of improving patient care. Dr. Lee shares practical insights for primary care clinicians on evaluating drug allergy histories and identifying patients who may safely benefit from de-labeling. Why is de-labeling important? It can improve care, lower costs, and slow antimicrobial resistance.

When you hear people talking about Section 504 or a 504 plan, this usually refers to a part of a U.S. law called the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. This civil rights law protects people with disabilities from discrimination, and that helps protect our patients while they are at school. Join a discussion about Section 504 with Margie Wakelin, Esq, from the Education Law Center, Layla Abdulla, MD, a pediatric resident, and Noreena Sondhi, JD, Director of the Community Pediatrics and Advocacy Program at CHOP.

In this episode, we’re diving into hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia, or HHT—a genetic condition that often first shows up in ways pediatricians see every day, like recurrent nosebleeds or unexplained anemia. Nihal Bakeer, MD, a hematologist and Allison Britt, MS, LCGC, a genetic counselor, help us recognize the early signs, understand when to suspect HHT, and evaluate how to manage and refer these patients in the outpatient setting.

Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is a chronic immune-mediated condition that affects feeding, growth, and quality of life, traditionally diagnosed and monitored through repeated endoscopies. Recent advancements include the esophageal string test, a minimally invasive method that captures disease activity through biomarkers rather than tissue biopsies, potentially transforming personalized care for EoE patients. This discussion features insights from Amanda Muir, MD, MTR, a pediatric gastroenterology and Melanie Ruffner, MD, PhD, an allergist/immunologist, and highlights how the esophageal string test is being integrated into clinical care programs, such as the Frontier Program at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, with ongoing research addressing unanswered questions in EoE to enhance patient-centered care.
