Child Health Final Flashcards
What type of communication should be used with a toddler?
Autonomy- allow for choices to reduce stress
What type of communication should be used with a preschooler?
Initiative- provide concrete and literal descriptions
What is Erikson’s theory of psychosocial development for infants?
Trust vs. mistrust
What is Erikson’s theory of psychosocial development for toddlers?
autonomy vs. shame and doubt
What is Erikson’s theory of psychosocial development for preschoolers?
initiative vs. guilt
What is Erikson’s theory of psychosocial development for school age (6-12)?
industry vs. inferiority
What is Erikson’s theory of psychosocial development for adolescence?
identity vs. role confusion
hypotonic dehydration
prolonged vomiting diarrhea, burns , IV fluids with no electrolytes.
here more sodium is lost than water. Compensatory mechanism moves fluid from EC INTO cells causing EVEN more ECF deficit
what is Piaget’s theory of cognitive development for adolescence?
Formal operational stage
What is Piaget’s theory of cognitive development for :
infants
toddlers
preschoolers
school age
infants - sensorimotor
toddlers - preoperational
preschoolers - preoperational
school age- concrete operational
Isotonic dehydration
cause: vomit/diarrhea
sodium and water loss is the same
In the pediatric assessment triangle, what do we look for under “appearance” ( TICLS)
Tone
Inter-activeness
Consolability
Look/Gaze
Speech/Cry
Pediatric assessment triangle, under “work of breaking” what do we look for? (RAAN)
Retractions (sign of working hard to breath)
Abnormal breath sounds
Abnormal positioning
Nasal Flaring
In the pediatric assessment triangle what is the “circulation to the skin”
Pallor
Mottling
Cyanosis
In pediatrics, when there is a decrease in intravasular volume ( due to shock) the CO and SV decrease. What is a compensatory mechanism that only exists in this age group?
Increase of HR - this does not happen to adults but we do get RAAS to activate and increase BP
What are some of the symptoms for hypovolemic shock?
-normal BP (until later)
-peripheral constriction = poor cap refill
-tachycardia = low central venous pressure
-normal CNS
What are some symptoms of septic (distributive) shock?
warm to cold phase
normal BP - or it wide pulse pressure
fever - hypothermia
tachycardia
tachypnea
bounding pulses
irritable
What are some symptoms of anaphylactic shock (distributive)
-allergic reactions: swelling, rash, flushed skin and nasusea
feeling dizzy, confusion, anxiety
What are some symptoms of cardiogenic shock?
-agitation
-cold and pale
diaphoretic
tachypnea
tachycardia
edema
oliguria
mottled/cyanotic
decreased peripheral circulation
What are the 3 stages of hypovolemic shock?
- early- compensatory mechanisms work. BP is normal with narrow pulse pressure, peripheral constriction, and increased HR
- Late (hypotensive) - NO compensatory mechanisms working now. BP is low, NO peripheral pulses, decreased LOC
- Cardiopulmonary failure (irreversible)- vasoconstriction and hypoxia with irreversible organ damage
Dehydration reg flags (TS D3)
tachycardia or dry mucous membranes
sunken eyes
decreased urine out put and specific gravity
doughy or tenting tissue turgor
decreased tears
The ABC’s for shock treatment
A-airways managed/
B-breathing 100% oxygen
C- circulation - need for IV, fluids (EXCEPT for cardiogenic), assess circulation
signs of infection in an infant?
loss of appetite, sleep disruption not regular, elevated temp/resp
Warm vs cold shock - describe warm
-tachycardia
-tachypnea
-fever
-bounding pulse
-fussy
-flushed looking
-WIDE pulse pressured (30-40)
BP normal or slightly increased
Warm vs. cold shock - describe cold phase
tachycardia
WOB increased and can lead to resp depression
hypotension - narrow of pulse pressure by 10-20
hypothermia
cool and pale extermities
decreased cap refill
-decreased pulse - weak @ peripherals
-low urine output ( <1 ml/kg/hr)
-altered LOC
