Symptoms: Apnoea, Blood culture, C-reactive protein, Crying, Cyanosis
Clinical narrative: The patient is a 2-month-old male, previously healthy, who presented to ED after having an episode of pallor, possible apnea and cyanosis at home. History is per personal discussion with Dr. as well as mom and dad. The baby was in his usual state of health today and had his 2 month wellness exam. He did receive the hepatitis B vaccine, PENTACEL, PREVNAR and oral dose of ROTATEQ at about 1130 hours this morning. Mom put him in the car seat and was driving over to visit one of the friends. When she was there, mom noted that the baby was crying a lot more and she went to pacify him and he seemed to all of a sudden become quite pale in color, limp and then turned bluish around the lower part of his chin bilaterally. He also seemed to stop breathing and she is estimating that the stopped breathing was less than 10 seconds. She blew in his face for a little bit and he finally came around and became more interactive and started crying. She called 911. By the time 911 arrived, he was back to his normal mental state, but his skin still looked pretty mottled. They brought him into the ED for evaluation. In the ED he had had 2 more episodes of turning completely white and then becoming very mottly appearing on exam. These were very brief, self-resolved episodes and then he came back to his baseline. This was not witnessed by the staff. He was on pulse oximetry and CR monitor at the time and the monitors were not going off. Due to the concern, though, that there were recurrence of these episodes, it was elected to admit him and do further evaluation. History is as above, Good p.o. intake. He has had no emesis. He is stooling and urinating fine. He has had no fever, runny nose, cough, difficulty breathing. There are no ill contacts. He has had no new medications, no new foods. The only thing new was that he had his immunizations today. There is no history of trauma or falls. The rest of his review of systems is negative.
