PEMPix 2023 Submissions: OPEN!

Use the form on this page to submit all of your materials. Cases can include photographs, radiographic images, or videos. Remember, this is a visual diagnosis competition and the centerpiece of each case should be a compelling picture or video. By far the easiest way to submit your case is to use the secure online form on this page. I promise that we are not collecting your information or sharing it with any third parties. At least one of the members of your submission team should be a member of the AAP’s Section on Emergency Medicine.

You must include the case, a 5-item multiple choice question for the diagnosis, and the AAP Release form signed by yourself in order for your submission to be accepted. The submission deadline is June 30th at 11:59pm EST – no exceptions!

The actual case may be submitted as a powerpoint presentation, a word document or other common file format. Please include high quality images or videos. You may elect to submit them separately as well. Please do not include any personal identifiers or HIPAA relevant information. Each case should include history, diagnosis and a brief discussion. Cases that have already been published in a journal are not eligible. Name your files in the following manner Lastname-Diagnosis-PEMPix2023.pptx

Each case must include five choices for the interactive multiple choice question formatted presentation. Please include the correct answer as one of the choices. The choices should be options in the differential diagnosis, not “what should you order as the next test” options.
