Hello, and welcome to this episode of B.C.E.N. and Friends.
In this episode we have the honor of talking with Dr. James Broselow. Dr. Broselow will tell us about how the Broselow Tape came about, information about SafeDose, and what he is currently working on that could be a game changer in ED Departments and the healthcare industry.

After graduating from Dartmouth College with honors in economics, Dr. Broselow obtained his medical degree from New Jersey College of Medicine and Dentistry and entered the field of family practice, in which he became board certified and practiced in Frankenmuth Michigan.
He continued to become board certified in Emergency Medicine. It was while working in the emergency department of a community hospital in Hickory, North Carolina, that he recognized how difficult and stressful it was for him and his team to care for acutely ill or injured children and decided there had to be a better way.
He conducted the original research concerning the correlation between length and weight in children, from which the “Broselow Tape” was born. This simple but effective color-coded tool determines body weight from body length and provides proper dosing and airway information for children.
He has worked with Dr. Allen Hinkle on the Broselow-Hinkle organizer and co-developed the Broselow tape and subsequent Broselow-Luten System with Robert Luten, MD.
Through his numerous and significant innovations in pediatric care, the Broselow name has become one of the most widely recognized in the field of emergency medicine. He is the recipient of the Institute for Safe Medical Practices Lifetime Achievement Award.
Medical personnel everywhere now use the Broselow Tape to provide essential critical care to children, assuring the correct sized airway equipment for each child is utilized, and providing life-saving medications safely and without costly errors or delays. The Broselow Tape even made a cameo appearance on the TV show ER!
So, relax and listen as Dr. Broselow tells you about how some of the things, you may have heard about, in nursing came about.
