B Flashcards
fetal abnormalities in fetal alcohol syndrome
growth retardation, short palpebral fissures, smooth philtrum, thin smooth upper vermillion border
which drug can cause ebstein anomaly or tricuspid valve
lithium
fetal hydantois syndrome
phenytoin
broad nasal bridge, cleft lip/palate, microcephaly, mental retardation
retinoic acid can affect fetus how
otic anomalies, thymic aplasia, anomalies of heart or aorta
valproic acid affects fetus how
spina bifida, facial anomalies
componenets of APGAR scoring
HR, RR, color, muscle tone and reflex irritability
Respiratory distress syndrome
hyaline membrane disease
deficiency of surfactant from type II pneumocyte cells
chest radiograph findings in respiratory distress syndroe
ground glass or diffuse retinculonodular pattern
how to prevent RDS
give glucocorticoids to mom 48 hours before delivery
transient tachypnea in the newborn
retained fetal lung liquid syndrome
most common neonatal infection
pneumonia
most common pathogens neonatal pneumonia
group B strep, E coli and klebsiella
Tx if suspect neonatal pneumonia
IV ampicllin and gentanycin
early onset neonatal sepsis
birth - 5 or so days
late onset sepsis
first several days - 1 month
most common pathogen neonatal sepsis
GBS
risk fators for neonatal sepsis
premature or prolonged rupture of the membranes, chorioamnionitis, maternal intrapartum fever or leukocytosis and preterm birth
early signs of sepsis
cyanosis, pallor, petechiae, vomiting, abdominal distension, respiratory distress, hypotension
Tx eraly onset sepsis
ampicillin and gentamicin for 10-14 days
Tx if meningitis with sepsis
add cephalosporin
physiologic jaundice
indirect hyperbilirubinemia from problems with bilirubin metabolism
peaks day 3 or 5 and normalize by 14-21 days
breast milk jaundice
bilirubin peak higher and remain elevated longer than physiologic jaundice
increase in enterohepatic circulation from unknown maternal factor in breast milk
most comomn cause non physiologic unconj hyperbilirubinemia is what
ABO incompatability
causes conj hyperbilirubinemia
biliary atresia, neonatal hepatitis, congenital infections, alpha1 antitrypsin deficiency and galactosemia
