The 48 Hour Rule Out

A three week old full term male infant who was known to feel warm at home and had a rental temperature. The next morning on rounds mom says my kid looks fine I want to go home but dogma is that we are doing a 48 hour rule out. Carrie: Can you talk a little bit about the historical background of this 48 hours rule out?Carrie: It's based on some studies that were in the late 70s back when that album you're all syrup was still around. So it isn't a surprise that it grew cognitive staff because that is what is in your arm but unfortunately is not probably what is in that child's blood.
