I did a 7 year old boy. He was a friend of my son's. He was so small he had to stand. I promised I'd take him camping if he could keep his eyes wide open and let us do the procedure. One of the best behaved patients ever. He went camping. We did reduce the dosage.

Hello Mike- We did this back in the early 80s. We didn't ask permission from the hospital or ICU and acted as if it was pre-approved. Held the preme in our lap and performed the FA standing. Today you would never get away this procedure. We were in and out of the hospital before anyone started to ask questions. The camera was moved in our mini van.

The youngest I have ever done is an 6 day old preme in the ICU - branch vein occlusion. Had to wheel Topcon 50 VT into hospital from Retina office.

While waiting his mom got him a snack of cookies and chocolate milk. Any guess on what I got to see after I injected him?? Remember to base the amount of dye to be injected on body weight. Check the insert or PDR on proper dosing. Or, and have a can ready to catch! Dennis M.

(Coat's disease) We said "yeah..." but very slowly and would want to check it with our angio consultant first. What's the youngest age of a patient people have done and angio on?
