D/V/F
irritability

25
first line tx for OM
amoxicillin
26
how to avoid OM
bottle propping decrease second hand smoke
27
OM risk factors
child care center tobacco propping
28
OE
inflammation of skin surrounding soft tissue of ear canal AKA: swimmers ear
29
OE s/s
drainage may be vissible with broken TM or tubes pain itching irritated canal
30
OE treatment
steroid ear drops antibiotic ear drops Ibuprofen/tylenol: pain
31
OE education
no swimming for 5 days
32
tympanovstomy tubes
small tube placed in the tympanic membrane
33
tympanovstomy tubes education - after surgery
increase fluids regular diet pain medication ear drops if prescribed quite activites
34
tympanovstomy tubes education - post op peroid
follow instructions on swimming use of ear plugs to prevent water alert if dislodged or falling out report purulent drainage
35
epitaxis w - what one is more dangerous
posterior
36
how do we know a posterior or anterior bleed
observe the flow
37
if its confined to one nostril what bleed
more likely anterior but could also be posterior
38
if blunt head trauma occurred what type of bleed
posterior
39
treatment for anterior nose bleed
sit up right with head tilted forward squeeze below the nasal bone for 10-15 mins if not stopping take a cotton ball soaked in vasconstribticting meds
40
treatment for posterior nose bleed
packing
41

more vulnerable for nose bleeds for 3-4 days don't bend over no strenuous exercise no hot drinks or shower sleep with HOB elecated humidifier
42

irritation low humidity forceful coughing allergies infection

if untreated will lead to rheumatic fever sinusitis glomerulonephritis meningitis
50
tonsilitis
infection inflammation of the tonsils
51
adenoids
lymphatic tissue located on the posterior pharyngeal wall
52
tonsilitis diagnosis
sore throat >38.3 cervcial andeopathy tonsils exudate positive GABHS
53
tonsillectomy considerations
7/1, 5/2, 3/3 peritonsilar abscess, airway obstructive, unresponsive to meds, multiple antibiotic allergies
54
tonsillectomy after care
ice collar cold fluids (decreased spasms) increase fluids Tylenol no Motrin or codeine
55
tonsillectomy infection
38.8 NOT: - low grade fever or white with odor, this is normal
56
should we suction after tonsillectomy
NO
57
bleeding s/s of tonsillectomy
frequent swallowing or cleaning throat
58
do we depress tongue in tonsillectomy
no
59
ENT Peds differences
neonate 20/100-20/400 neonate sees best at 20 cm optic nerve is not myelinated so decreased color distinguishing binocularity 2-4 months nysaagmus is common in Neo corona is larger so easily injured iris is blue/gray but changes during first 6 mo 6-7 is when 20/20 test for color blindness at 5 years old eusthanian tube is shorter, wider, more horizontal auditory function at 5 mo nasal breathing at 6 mo strong mouth muscles for sucking and swallowing and speech 6 mo 1st tooth 2 years 20 primary teeth
