Q

TTT of Transient Tachypnea of Newborn (TTN)

A
  • TTN is generally a benign, self-limited disease that usually responds well to oxygen therapy.
  • Mechanical ventilation seldom โ€œrareโ€ is needed.
  • Many infants require nasal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) support.

TTT of Meconium Aspiration Syndrome

A
  • Endotracheal intubation and suctioning may be indicated to remove meconium from the airway if there is airway obstruction.
  • Empty the stomach to avoid further aspiration.

38
Q

TTT of RDS

  • General
A
  • The baby needs to be nursed in a neonatal intensive care unit.
  • Basic support including thermal regulation and parenteral fluid
  • Mild cases may only need oxygen (warm and humidified) via head box or nasal cannula.
39
Q

TTT of RDS

  • Specific
A

Surfactant replacement therapy:
โ–ช Given by instillation down endotracheal tube.
โ–ช Often improves pulmonary mechanics.
โ–ช Decreases RDS severity and reduces mortality.

40
Q

TTT of RDS

  • Respiratory Support
A

Continuous positive air pressure (CPAP):
โ–ช Can help to prevent alveolar and airway collapse.

Mechanical ventilation may be required:
โ–ช If the patient continues to deteriorate.

41
Q

CPAP

A
  • It is a continuous flow of a mixture of O2 and air past the infantโ€™s airway at a set pressure of 5-8 cm H20 maintaining an elevated end-expiratory lung volume while the infant breaths spontaneously.
42
Q

Prognosis of RDS

A
43
Q

Incidence of Air Leak Syndrome

A
  • Mostly seen in infants with lung disease who are on ventilatory support and may occur spontaneously.
  • The more severe the lung disease, the higher the incidence of pulmonary air leak.
44
Q

Types of Air Leak Syndromes

A
  • Pneumomediastinum.
  • Pneumothorax.
  • pulmonary interstitial emphysema.
  • pneumopericardium.
45
Q

Pathogenesis of Air Leak Syndrome

A

Overdistension of alveolar sacs or terminal airways โ€”-> disruption of airway integrity โ€”-> dissection of air into surrounding spaces.

46
Q

RF for Air Leak Syndrome

A
  • Ventilatory support
  • Meconium aspiration syndrome
  • Vigorous resuscitation.
47

Infants who have CHD may present with โ€ฆโ€ฆ.

A

cyanosis or heart failure

61

A

hypercapnia

62
Q

Metabolic acidosis is slightly more common in patients who have low COP because of CHD.

A

โ€ฆ

63
Q

Signs that are generally consistent with CHD include โ€ฆ..

A
64
Q

Infants who have cyanotic heart diseases

  • Typically, do not present with severe chest retraction however, tachypnoea is common
A

โ€ฆ

65
Q

Infants who have cyanotic heart diseases

  • Oxygen saturation is usually decreased
A

โ€ฆ.

66
Q

Infants who have cyanotic heart diseases

  • Increasing the concentration of inspired oxygen to 100% for 20 minutes (hyperoxia test) will not produce a significant increase in Pao2.
A
