In cases of food-associated exercise-induced anaphylaxis, children must not

A

exercise within 2-3 hr of ingesting the triggering food and, like children with exercise-induced anaphylaxis, should exercise with a friend, learn to recognize the early signs of anaphylaxis (sensation of warmth and facial pruritus), stop exercising, and seek help immediately if symptoms develop.

Tachycardia; little or no urine output; irritable/lethargic; sunken eyes and fontanel; decreased tears; dry mucous membranes; mild delay in elasticity (skin turgor); delayed capillary refill (>1.5 sec); cool and pale

42
Q

A

allergic reactions to medications and latex

44
Q

% body weight loss in severe dehydration

A

> 10% in an infant; >6% in an older child or adult

45
Q

The neonate with dehydration due to poor intake of breast milk often has what kind of dehydration?

A

Hypernatremic dehydration. Hypernatremic dehydration is likely in any child with losses of hypotonic fluid and poor water intake, such as may occur with diarrhea, and poor oral intake due to anorexia or emesis.

45
Q

Good urine output may be deceptively present in child experiencing dehydration if

A

If a child has an underlying renal defect, such as diabetes insipidus or a salt-wasting nephropathy, or in infants with hypernatremic dehydration

46
Q

Patients with latex allergy may also experience food-allergic reactions from homologous proteins in foods such as

A

bananas, kiwi, avocado, chestnut, and passion fruit

48
Q

Hyponatremic dehydration occurs in

A

Occurs in the child with diarrhea who is taking in large quantities of low-salt fluid, such as water or diluted formula.

49
Q

A serious allergic reaction that is rapid in onset and may cause death, occurs when there is a sudden release of potent biologically active mediators from mast cells and basophils, leading to cutaneous, respiratory, cardiovascular, and gastrointestinal symptoms.

A

Anaphylaxis

50
Q

Important cause of food-induced anaphylaxis, accounting for the majority of fatal and near-fatal reactions

A

peanut allergy

51
Q

Which growth period is rapid and is critical for neurocognitive development, and bears higher metabolic rate and nutrient requirements, relative to body size?

A

Infancy growth period

52
Q

What type of vitamin k deficiency of bleeding at birth occurs at 1-14 days of age? It is secondary to low stores of vitamin K at birth due to the poor transfer of vitamin K across the placenta and inadequate intake during the 1st few days of life. In addition, there is no intestinal synthesis of vitamin K2 because the newborn gut is sterile. Occurs mostly in breast-fed.

A

Early vkdb

53
Q

VKBD most commonly occurs at 2-12wk of age, although cases can occur up to 6mo after birth. Almost all cases are in breast-fed infants due to the low vitamin K content of breast milk.

A

Late VKDB

54
Q

VKDB occurs at birth or shortly thereafter.secondary to maternal intake of medications, such as warfarin, phenobarbital and phenytoin, that cross placenta and interfere with vitamin k function.

A

Drug induced VKDB

55
Q

Vitamin k deficiency due to fat malabsorption can occur in any age. What are the possible etiologies?

A

cholestatic liver disease, pancreatic disease, and intestinal disorders (celiac sprue, inflammatory bowel disease, short-bowel syndrome), Prolonged diarrhea, Children with cystic fibrosis having pancreatic insufficiency and liver disease

56
Q

Osmolality equation. Normal osmolality values.

A

Osmolality (mmol) = 2 x [Na] + [glucose]/18 + [BUN]/2.8

Normal values = 285-295 mOsm/kg
Glucose and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) are measured in mg/dL. Division of these values by 18 and 2.8, respectively, as shown, converts the units into mmol/L. Multiplication of the sodium value by 2 accounts for its accompanying anions, principally chloride and bicarbonate. The calculated osmolality is usually slightly lower than the measured osmolality.

57
Q

Effect of glucose in plasma osmolality

A

Hyperglycemia causes an increase in the plasma osmolality because it is not in equilibrium with the intracellular space. During hyperglycemia there is a shift of water from the intracellular space to the extracellular space. This is clinically important in children with hyperglycemia during diabetic ketoacidosis. The shift of water causes dilution of the sodium in the extracellular space, causing hyponatremia despite an elevated plasma osmolality.

58
Q

The dominant cation of the ECF and it is the principal determinant of extracellular osmolality.

A

Sodium

59
Q

Short stature, coarse facies, dry skin, cataracts, macroglossia in an infant

A

untreated congenital hypothyroidism

60
Q

physiologic jaundice

A
  1. indirect bilirubin 1-3 mg/dl and increases at a rate of <5mg/dl
  2. starts to rise 1st-3rd day and peaks at 2nd-4th day
  3. 2mg/dl at 5th-7th day of life
61
Q

most common pathogen that causes systemic and focal infections in the newborn

A

Group B Streptococci

62
Q

transient lower esophageal sphincter relaxation is the primary mechanism for

A

gastroesophageal reflux

63
Q

More than 90% of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) cases are caused by

A

21-hydroxylase deficiency

64
Q

What hormone/s are deficient in the most severe, salt-wasting form of the classical 21-hydroxylase deficiency (CAH)

A

Because both cortisol and aldosterone require 21-hydroxylation for their synthesis, both hormones are deficient in the most severe, salt-wasting form of the disease. This form constitutes about 70% of cases of classical 21-hydroxylase deficiency.
