Exam 3 seinor year Flashcards
intentional physical abuse or neglect, emotional abuse or neglect or sexual abuse of children, usually done by adults
abuse/child maltreatment
who is at higher risk of death of children
younger parents (inadequate knowledge)
failure to provide for kids basic needs
neglect
deliberate attempt to destroy or significantly impair a child’s self esteem or competence
emotional abuse
deliberate infliction of physical injury on a child, usually by the child’s caregiver
physical abuse
inappropriate touching of child’s breast or genitalia
sexual abuse
signs and symptoms of child abuse
fearful behavior, bed wetting, UTI’s abdominal pain, extreme sexual behavior
characteristics of the typical child abuser
male, knows victim, any social level
illness that one person fabricates or induces in another person
Munchausen syndrome by proxy
infant can suffer trauma resulting from an intentional or non accidental head injury by caregiver
shaken baby syndrome
Signs and symptoms of shaken baby syndrome
increase ICP decrease LOC resp compromise vomiting seizures coma death
when is the babies brain synapses being produced
first 3 years
cranio-cerebral patho of infant
heads disproportionably larger, weak cervico-spinal muscles, larger subarachnoid spaces
violent shaking of a baby causes
soft tissue of the brain to bounce around inside the skull
who is the least likely to be the perpetrator of the child during abuse
mother
injuries due to shaken baby syndrome (SBS)
increase ICP
retinal hemorrhage and or detachment
skeletal fractures
who is responsible for mandatory reporting of suspected child abuse
healthcare professionals, including nurses
when is a child diagnosed with failure to thrive
child’s weight for age is below 3rd or 5th percentile or falls more than 2 major percentile lines (ex. 75-25)
organic failure to thrive
cardiac, neurological, renal, GI, endocrine
Ex. cleft lip or palate, GERD, celiac, DM, hyperthyroidism
non organic failure to thrive
poverty, health beliefs, knowledge deficit, family stress
what are characteristics of failure to thrive
growth failure, failure to maintain growth patterns, developmental delays, flattened occiput, apathy, avoid eye contact, poor hygiene, feeding disorders
how do you Tx a child with failure to thrive
reverse malnutrition & provide sufficient calories to support “catch up” growth (150%), don’t overstimulate (cause baby to use more calories than needed)
what do you need to obtain during initial assessment
growth, diet hx, elimination pattern, medical hx, family hx, social hx (socioeconomic status of family)
overweight
85-95 percentile
obese
over 95 percentile
health risks due to obesity
DM, HTN, sleep apnea, cancer, obesity as adult
what is the #1 cause of obesity
inactivity
BMI
Ht (inches) 2 (squared)
treatment for obesity
exercise
5, 2, 1, almost none
(5 fruits/veggies, 2 hours of TV, 1 hour of activity, almost no sweets/sodas)
goal for obesity
maintain and allow for growth (plate method)
puberty
transition btwn childhood and sexual maturity
menarche
first menstruation
menstruation
periodic uterine bleeding
avg blood loss is 20-80 ml
14 days after ovulation
female hormones during menstrual cycle
F-follicle stimulating hormone E-estrogen L-leutinizing hormone O-ovulation P-progesterone
corpus luteum
provides progesterone, helps with gestation of fetus
if the corpus luteum is not fertilized what will happen to it
shrink and degenerate (go away)
bleeding occurs when?
decrease of estrogen and progesterone
what does the fertilized egg secrets and what does it do
HCG, keeps corpus luteum “alive” which produces progesterone that keeps the fetus alive
effects of estrogen
endometrial growth, uterine change, liquidity and elasticity of cervical mucus, dilation of cervical os
effects of progesterone
relaxation of uterus, ripens uterine lining, prepares uterus for implantation, changes in cervical mucus, breast tissue preparation
what phase is estrogen seen the greatest
proliferative phase
what phase is progesterone seen the greatest
secretory phase (luteal)
phase 1 is
menstrual phase (shedding of endometrium)
phase 2 is
proliferative phase (rapid endometrial growth)
phase 3 is
luteal phase, increase of progesterone from corpus luteum matures endometrial lining
phase 4 is
ischemic phase (if egg is not fertilized, corpus luteum reaches end of life cycle,
unable to achieve conception after one year of unprotected intercourse
infertility
less than 6 months is over age of 35
absolute factor preventing reproduction
sterility
both partners have reduced fertility
subfertility
couple has never had a child
primary infertility
couple previously conceived, now unable to conceive
secondary infertility
factors that contribute to infertility
weight, smoking, stress, chemical exposure, age, reproduction organ issues
uterine fibroids
benign growths on uterine wall that interfere with embryonic and fetal development
what is the most common cause of tubal issues
PID
what is the most important determinant of infertility
age
male factors that are associated with infertility
substances, infections, heat exposure, pelvic radiation
varicocele
vein in testicle has inadequate valves causing blood to back up, results in poor sperm quality
retrograde ejaculation
ejaculate enters bladder instead of exiting penis
when can a sperm analysis be done
2-3 days after abstinence, deliver within one hour of collection, maintain body temperature
BBT
determines approx. time of ovulation
take temperature before rising our of bed, record for 3-4 months, ovulation temp will increase 0.4- degrees for 3 days
cervical mucus does what during ovulation
thins for sperm to be able to move easier
ferning capacity
shows lined channels that favor sperm migration (lok like road ways, look like a maze when ovulation is not occurring)
what must the cervical mucus be like for the sperm
thin, clear, watery, profuse, alkaline, acelluar
hysterosalpingography
checks tubal patency and uterine abnormalities, cause cramps
diagnostic laparascopy
general anesthesia, pump CO2 into pelvis for visualization, have post op neck and back pain
what is the first line therapy for females in infertility
clomid, simulates follicle growth, take po for 5 days, can have hot flashes, blurred vision, HA
when with polycystic ovarian disease may be given what
hypoglycemic, help to induce ovulation
homologous
husbands sperm used
heterologous
donors sperm used
gamete intra fallopian tube transfer (GIFT)
eggs retrieved and placed directly in fallopian tube with sperm before fertilization
IVF
women’s egg collected and fertilized in lab then placed in uterus
gene
basic unit of heredity
chromosomes
total of 46 (1 pair of sex chromosomes, 22 other pairs)
is the sex chromosomes is X and Y then the baby is
male
phenotype
outward appearance of gene
