Abstract
We present a case of a 14-month-old female presenting to the emergency department with head trauma. When her symptoms deviated from those associated with typical head trauma, the emergency department pharmacy team recognized a vital clue that directed the medical team toward the actual mechanism of injury and appropriate treatment of the child.
