Seven thousand five hundred pediatricians and 7,500 emergency department (ED) physicians were surveyed with regard to their management of a febrile 7-month-old child and 20-month-old child without an apparent fever focus. Specifically, physicians were asked how they would manage a febrile child who had and who had not been vaccinated with PCV 7. When evaluating a febrile 7-month-old child, pediatricians would order 5% fewer complete blood cell (CBC) counts and 6% fewer blood cultures (p&lt;0.0001) if a child was vaccinated. ED physicians would order 13% fewer CBC\u2019s and 15% fewer blood cultures (p&lt;0.0001). ED physicians and pediatricians ordered fewer chest radiographs, an 8% and 3% decrease, respectively (p&lt;0.0001). For the PCV 7 immunized 20-month-old child, pediatricians ordered 6% fewer CBC counts and 8% fewer blood cultures (p&lt;0.0001). ED physicians would perform 12% fewer CBC counts and cultures (p&lt;0.0001). Four percent fewer pediatricians and 10% fewer ED physicians would order chest radiographs (p&lt;0.0001). When treating the vaccinated 7-month-old child, pediatricians would use 11% less ceftriaxone and ED physicians 20% less (p&lt;0.0001). Twelve percent fewer pediatricians and 19% fewer ED physicians would administer ceftriaxone (p&lt;0.0001) for the 20-month-old vaccinated child. Our survey suggests that pediatricians and ED physicians would order fewer CBC counts and blood cultures and administer less empiric ceftriaxone if a child was vaccinated with PCV 7.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/000992280404300110","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2006,3,31]],"date-time":"2006-03-31T16:28:22Z","timestamp":1143822502000},"page":"75-82","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":16,"title":["Management of Febrile Children in the Conjugate Pneumococcal Vaccine Era"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"43","author":[{"given":"Michael E.","family":"Gabriel","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pediatrics, Schneider Children\u2019s Hospital at North Shore University Hospital, Department of Pediatrics, Stamford Hospital"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Leslie","family":"Aiuto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pediatrics, Brookdale University Hospital and Medical Center, Brooklyn, New York"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nina","family":"Kohn","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"North Shore-Long Island Jewish Research Institute, Biostatistics Unit"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Stephen R.","family":"Barone","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pediatrics, Brookdale University Hospital and Medical Center, Brooklyn, New York"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2004,1,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"atypb1","first-page":"3","author":"Edwards K","year":"2000","journal-title":"Infectious Dis Children"},{"key":"atypb2","volume-title":"Program for control of acute respiratory infections.
