normal electrolytes and cBC
SBO from adhesions is most likely
best Dx image for pancreatic CA
CT
neonate with bilious vomting
malrotation, volvulus
NG tube placed in neonate with bilious vomtiing and there is no free air in stomach (aka no double bubble)
now do upper GI series

painless bleeding from rectum in adult
diverticulosis

vomiting, agitation, irrational behavior
progressing lethargy, stupor and restlessness
lab findings in reye syndrome
hyperammonemia normal or slighly elevated bili and alk phos long PT hypoglycemia mod t osevere inc LFTs and LDH
microvesicular steatosis in kidneys and brain
reye syndrome
when to suspect spontaneous bacterial peritonitis
any patient with cirrhosis and ascites accompanied by fever or change in mental status
Abdomainl XR findings in necrotizing enterocolitis
air in bowel wall “train track or double line”
and portal veins
“pneumatosis intestinalis”
pneumatosis intestinalis
from NEC in newborn. risk with prematurity
what cause zenker diverticulum
sphincter dysfunction and esophageal dymotility
typical GERD findings in patient, next step
Upper GI endoscopy
biggest risk factor for pancreatitis
alcohol consumptions
Tx appendiceal abscess
IV hydration, Antibiotics, bowel rest and interval appendectomy
anemia in patient taking aspirin and NSAID
likely Fe deficient from chronic bleeding
what happens in anemia of chronic disease
suppresion RBC production by inflammatory cytokines
what type of damage in reye syndrome
microvesicular fatty infiltration
best Dx for acute gallstone pancreatitis
RUQ US if inconclusive the ERCP
chronic alcoholic with cirrhosis with vague symptoms like weakness and fatigue, next step
esophageal endoscopy
and US of liver every 6 months to look for hepatocellular carcinoma
when do you introduce pureed foods to infants
6 months
when to introduce cows milk to infants
1 year
why does rifaxamin help with encephalopath
decrease number of ammonia producing bacteria in colon
why is there steatorrhea in zollinger ellison
inactivation of pancreatic enzymes by increased stomach acid
crypt abscesses
UC
porphyria cutanea tarda
fragile skin, photosensitivity and vesicles and erosions on dorsum of hands
seen in Hep C
HCV patients also have what condition usually
essential mixed cryoglobulinemia
waxing and waning transaminase levels
Hep C
CF findings
recurrent infections
growth failure
steatorrhea, malabsorption ADEK
because malabsorption K can have higher susceptibility to bleeding and bruising
tests for CF
sweat Cl testing
fecal elastase
genotyping
CF patients at risk for
pancreatitis, DM and infertility
what meds are assoc with acute pancreatitis
valproic acid diuretics: furosemid and thiazides drugs for IBD: ASA and sulfasalazine immuno: azathioprine HIV: didanosine and pentamidine antibiotics: metro and tetracycline
test for lactulose intolerance
+ H breath test
low stool pH and increased stool osmotic gap
nonalcoholic fatty liver disease
middle aged obese with metabolic syndrome
bland steatosis to ecrosis to cirrhosis
macrovesicular fat deposition and peripheral displacement nuclei
What is nonalcoholic fatty liver disease related to
insulin R and increased peripheral lipolysis TG synthesis and hepatic uptake
triple bubble sign
jejunal atresia
what increases risk for GI atresia in utero
mom using vasoconstrictive meds or tobacco or cocaine
severe pancreatitis causes hypotension how
increased vascular permeability
most common liver mass
metastatsis
solid or multiple
anti HBs +
anti HBc +
resolved hep B infection
when do you have antiHBe +
recovery phase of HBV
what Ab if you are immune to Hep B from natural infection
IgG anti HBc and Anti HBs
Tx for duodenal hematoma in child
