Emma Holliday Flashcards
acrocyanotic
define
apgar score
blue hands and feet
add 1 to apgar
grimaces to stimulation
apgar score
add 1 to apgar
not full withdrawal to stim, that would be 2
tf
apgar guides therapy and has prognostic value
f
just descriptive basically
erb palsy
appearance
which nerve roots
waiter’s tip
C5-C6
klumpke palsy
appearance
which nerve roots
klumpke claw hand
C7C8T1
scalp edema crosses suture lines is called
vs does not cross suture lines
caput succedaneum
cephalo-hematoma
what makes up mongolian spots
arrested melanocytes
pale pink vascular macules on face or nuchal area
aka
persist or resolve?
(nevus simplex) salmon patch
on the face regress
on the neck may persist into adolescence
firm white papules on face of newborn on day one aka filled with may confuse with... but won't because..
milia
filled with keratin
may confuse with neonatal acne
but won’t because acne presents later (week of life 1 or 2, not day of life 1)
firm yellow/white papules/pustules on an erythematous base on day of life 2
aka
filled with
erythema toxicum
filled with eosinophils
bright red sharply demarcated raised lesion in first few months of life aka
hemangioma
tactile difference nevus simplex vs hemangioma
nevus simplex (salmon patch) is not palpable
hemangioma is raised, palpable, sharp borders
erythematous papules on face in week of life 1 or 2
aka
neonatal acne
why does neonatal acne occur
hormones! same as teens
circulating maternal androgens
biggest clue milia vs neonatal acne
time of presentation
milia - day 1 of life
neonatal acne - week 1 or 2 of life
area of alopecia with orange colored nodular skin
aka
mgmt
nevus sebaceous
remove before adolescence because risk of malignant transformation
newborn seborrheic dermatitis
aka
describe
manage
cradle cap
thick yellow/white oily scale on an inflammatory base
mild shampoo… eg on a soft toothbrush and scrub away… pretty easy to get rid of
2 neonatal disorders screened in every state because disastrous if not caught early and contraindicate breast feeding path time to sx sx mgmt
- PKU Phenylketonuria
- deficient phenylalanine hydroxylase, phe accumulates in brain
- sx take a few months to arise
- developmental delay, mental retardation, vomiting, athetosis writhing muscle contractions, fair hair eyes skin, musty smell
- low phenylalanine diet
Galactosemia
- deficient G1p-uridyl-transferase, G1p accumulates and damages kidney liver brain
- right at birth (galactose can cross placenta)
- mental retardation, jaundice hyperbilirubinemia, hypoglycemia, cataracts, seizures
- no lactose diet (no breast milk!)
tf
phenylalanine and lactose are present in breast milk
T
that’s why important to screen for PKU and Galactosemia in neonates
physiologic jaundice usually resolved by…
day of life 5
4 red flags for pathologic jaundice
and next best test
1st day of life (usually pathologic)
total bili ^12
d bili ^2
rate of rise ^5/day
get coombs for ABO Rh incompatibility
-if negative… lots of other stuff it could be…
does sepsis cause neonatal indirect or direct hyperbilirubinemia
direct
does galactosemia cause neonatal indirect or direct hyperbilirubinemia
direct
does hypothyroidism cause neonatal direct or indirect hyperbilirubinemia
direct
pathogenesis of dubin johnson and rotors
secretion… absorption… or something… get conjugated hyperbili… not a conjugation defect (that’s gilbert and crigler najar unconjugated hyperbili)
dubin johnson vs rotor liver color
dubin johnson black liver
rotor red (normal) liver
where does indirect bilirubin deposit in the brain in kernicterus
basal ganglia
cranial nerve nuclei
tf
phototherapy conjugates bilirubin
FALSE
it ionizes the unconjugated bili so that it becomes soluble and can be excreted… but does not conjugate it… whatever that means
diaphragmatic hernia identified prenatally
the big worry
how to manage delivery and repair
big worry is pulmonary hypoplasia
ECMO (extracorporeal membrane oxygenation) after delivery to support for a few days and let lungs mature… THEN operate 3-4 days after delivery…
drooling newborn who can’t breath think…
esophageal atresia
tracheo-esophageal fistula, etc
VACTERL
Vertebral defects Anal atresia Cardiac defects Tracheo-Esophageal fistula Renal anomalies Limb anomalies
VACTERL association has 3+ of the above
feeding tube coils, dianosing esophageal atresia
…what else to look for?
VACTERL association has 3+ of
Vertebral defects Anal atresia Cardiac defects Tracheo-Esophageal fistula Renal anomalies Limb anomalies
what is the choana
back of the nasal passage
1 week old baby cyanotic with feeds but pinks with crying
think…
also look for…
choanal atresia (failed recanalization of nasal fossa)
CHARGE association Coloboma (hole in an eye structure) Heart defects Atresia of choana Retarded growth GU anomalies Ear anomalies and deafness
CHARGE association
Coloboma (hole in an eye structure) Heart defects Atresia of choana Retarded growth GU anomalies Ear anomalies and deafness
32 wk premie w dyspnea rr 80 w nasal flaring
cxr ground glass opacities, air bronchograms, atelactasis
dx
pathophys
tx
RDS
L:S ratio v2 prenatally
not enough surfactant to keep alveoli open
corticosteroid prenatally to stim lung maturation
O2 therapy with nasal CPAP to keep alveoli open
tf
theophyline for RDS
false
theophylline for problems with respiratory drive (central sleep apnea)
RDS is a problem of oxygenation, not respiration
38wk LGA infant porn by csection to mom with gestational diabetes has dyspnea and grunting
dx
pathophys
tx/prognosis
TTN
transient tachypnea of the newborn
cxr perihilar streaking from retained fluid in lung fissures
retained fluid from not having it expulsed during vaginal passage because delivered by c section
minimal O2 needed usually, self resolves in hours-dats
baby born after rupture of membranes yielded green/brown fluid
dx
next best step
complications
meconium aspiration syndrome
intubate and suction BEFORE typical stimulation maneuvers to prevent further aspiration into lungs
pneumonitis, pulmonary htn (lungs not expanding to decrease resistance)
newborn periumbilical intestinal hernia, defect lateral of midline, no sac
dx
associations
complications
gastroschisis
^maternal AFP prenatally
NO disease associations
(as opposed to omphalocele….big baby big tongue ear pits low glucose Beckwith Wiedemann Syndrome)
dehydration and scarring requiring resection, short gut syndrome (malnutrition etc)
newborn periumbilical intestinal hernia covered by sac
dx
associations
omphalocele
assoc w Beckwith Wiedemann Syndrome - big baby w big tongue, ear pits, low glucose, omphalocele
newborn umbilical hernia
(midline defect WITHOUT BOWEL present)
assoc
tx
assoc w Congenital Hypothyroidism

tx
congenital hypothyroidism
vs big tongue and ompalocele… and ear pits, low glucose assoc w Beckwith Wiedemann Syndrome
big tongue and umbilical hernia think…
not..
congenital hypothyroid
if big tongue and Omphalocele think beckwith wiedemann syndrome… espec if with ear pits, low glucose
metabolic complication of pyloric stenosis
hypochloremic metabolic alkalosis (because vomiting up HCL)
Polyhydramnios is typically caused by
decreased fetal swallowing or increased fetal urination
causes of necrotizing enterocolitis
premature gut (premie) maybe introducing food too soon maybe formula...
treat necrotizing enterocolitis
NPO TPN abx resection of necrotic bowel
