B8-080 CBCL Care of the Infant Flashcards
APGAR is assigned at […] and […] min of life
1 and 5
(if less than 7, continue every 5 min until improvement)
medications administered to infant in the first few hours of life [3]
vitamin K
erythromycin eye ointment
hepatitis B vax
what does APGAR evaluate?
Appearance
Pulse
Grimace
Activity
Respiration
(each category given score from 0-2)
Note: she says HR, RR, muscle tone, reflex irritability, color in her lecture
if the cord has […] vessels, that could indicate genetic anomalies
two
(3 normal)
if you are unsure of baby’s GA, you can use the […] method to evaluate them
ballard
“hang on for life” reflex
baby extends/abducts arms when startled and then draws together
moro reflex (startle reflex)
required newborn screening tests [3]
hearing
newborn screen: CF, PKU, thyroid, etc.
CHD
high pitched crying
uncontrolled tremors
fragmented sleep
diarrhea/vomiting
frequent sneezing
sweating
in a newborn can be signs of
NOWS
the highest risk of congenital anomalies due to teratogens occurs in the […] period
embryonic (weeks 3-8)
causes of congenital anomalies are […] in 55% of cases
multifactorial
intrinsic developmental defect that occurs during the embryonic period
malformation
secondary breakdown of tissue with normal developmental potential
disruption
(ex. amniotic band)
extrinsic mechanical distortion occurs during fetal period
deformation
(ex. club foot from low amniotic fliud)
birth defects associated with smoking and pregnancy [4]
cleft lip/palate
club foot
gastroschisis
heart defects
placental problems associated with tobacco exposure [2]
abruption (painful)
previa (painless)
following delivery, babies born to mothers who smoked tobacco are at an increased risk of […]
SIDS
congenital anomalies associated with opioids [4]
CVD anomalies (tet. and HLHS)
neural tube defects
gastroschisis
clubfoot
failure of closure of the […] results in anencephaly
anterior neuropore
[…] use in pregnancy is associated with prune belly syndrome and cryptorchidism
cocaine
inhibits the transport of biotin and vitamin B6 across the placenta
ethanol
blood entering the fetus through the umbilical vein is conducted through the […] to the IVC
ductus venousus
in the fetus, the highly oxygenated blood reaching the heart via the IVC is direct through the […] into the left atrium
foramen ovale
in the fetus, deoxygenated blood from the SVC passes through the RA -> RV -> main pulmonary artery -> […] –> descending aorta
ductus arteriosus
describe the changes that occur in the heart when an infant takes a breath after birth
decreased resistance in pulmonary vasculature –>
increased left atrial pressure vs RA –>
foramen ovale closes
the increase in O2 and decrease in prostaglandins allows for closure of ductus arteriosus
erythromycin is administered to newborns for […] prophylaxis
gonorrhea
vitamin K is administered to newborns for […] prophylaxis
bleeding
below the […]% is considered SGA
above the […]% is considered LGA
below the [10]% is considered SGA
above the [90]% is considered LGA
the first stool produced by baby is called […]
meconium
failure of the […] to close results in gastroschisis
ventral body wall
gastroschisis is most commonly linked to maternal use of […] [2]
opioid
tobacco smoke
pregnant women exposed to […] are at an increased risk of having a baby with low birth weight
secondhand smoke
the umbilical vein drains into the […] via the ductus venosus
IVC
[…] vessel cord is associated with congenital and chromosomal anomalies
two vessel
(single umbilical artery)
benign neonatal hyperbilirubinemia is caused by [3]
increased fetal RBC turnover
immature newborn liver (less UDP activity)
increased enterohepatic circulation
how can failure of breastfeeding cause jaundice?
insufficient breastmilk intake leads to decreased bilirubin elimination in stool
how can breast milk cause jaundice?
increased B-glucoronidase in milk causes deconjugation
severe cases of benign neonatal hyperbilirubinemia can lead to
kernicterus
(deposits in basal ganglia)
