Chronic Nonbacterial Osteomyelitis (CNO)

This podcast will give you an approach to chronic nonbacterial osteomyelitis. In this episode, the listener will be able to 1) discuss the differential diagnosis for pediatric patients presenting with non-traumatic bony pain, 2) suggest appropriate investigations for these patients, 3) list the Bristol diagnostic criteria for CNO, and 4) outline two options in the treatment of patients with CNO. The podcast was created by Iain Sander, a 3rd year medical student at the University of Alberta, in collaboration with Dr. Dax G. Rumsey, a Pediatric Rheumatologist from the Stollery Children’s Hospital and the Division Director of the Pediatric Rheumatology Program at the University of Alberta in Edmonton.
