Welcome to “Mini Mysteries: Pediatric Cases” a TeamPeds Talks podcast series from the National Association of Pediatric Nurse Practitioners.

In this podcast series we explore unique clinical cases across the spectrum of pediatric care. Our host for this series is Dan Crawford DNP, ARNP, CPNP-PC, CNE, FAANP, NAPNAP immediate past president. In each episode, we'll tell the story of cases that aren’t always what they appear to be at first glance and explore from the point of clinical presentation, decision making, and the final diagnosis. But there’s a catch, Dan as the host doesn’t know any details about the case at the time of recording, so we are investigating this together. We invite you into these stories as an interactive experience and encourage you to ask your own questions toward solving the cases as they unfold.
