The Choking Game: Physician Perspectives
Jan. 28, 2009
Julie L. McClave, MDa, Patricia J. Russell, MDb, Anne Lyren, MD, MScc,d, Mary Ann O'Riordan, MSe, Nancy E. Bass, MDf
"Close to one third of physicians surveyed were unaware of the choking game, a potentially life-threatening activity practiced by adolescents. Despite acknowledging that the choking game should be included in adolescent anticipatory guidance, few physicians reported actually discussing it. To provide better care for their adolescent patients, pediatricians and family practitioners should be knowledgable about risky behaviors encountered by their patients, including the choking game, and provide timely guidance about its dangers. "
