Asthma

A
  • obstructive pulmonary disease, episodic periods of reversible narrowing by way of airway inflammation
  • most common chronic childhood disease
  • 20% of those with asthma at 7 will have asthma at 42
  • presents as prolonged exhalation time

Q

Asthmatic Airway vs normal airway

A

wall is inflammed and thickened

during an asthma attack, the smooth muscles become tight, and air becomes trapped in the alveoli

Q

Exercise induced bronchospasm

A
  • defined by s/s within 5-10 min of exercise with intensity of 70-85%
  • may include airway narrowing that occurs anytime during or immediately after exercise
  • resolves spontaneosusly within 20-30 min

Q

Cystic Fibrosis

A
  • autosomal recessive, genetically inherited disease
  • thick, viscous secretions by excretory glands
  • decreased enzymatic production in GI tract
  • commonly impacts pulmonary system with obstruction of airways, resulting in hyperinflation, infection, tissue destruction
  • child may have concurrent failure to thrive due to GI issues

Q

Congenital cardiac defects

A
  • structural anomalies that allow for an alternative route of blood through CVP systems or obstruct usual rote of blood flow
  • usually require surgical intervention if they are symptomatic

17
Q

Can you use the borg scale with kids?

18
Q

WeeFIM 2

A

used for kids with congenital or acquired diseases to measure function

19
Q

Pediatric Pain

A

Acute (traumatic, burns)
Chronic (disease)
Combo

20
Q

Pain presentation in kids

A
  • verbal
  • crying, screaming, grunting
  • grabbing body part, limping
  • change in pace, energy level, agitation level, movement, facial expression
  • change in want for touch/support from others (either increased or decreased)
21
Q

Components of pain to address

A

behavioral
emotional
functional
physical

22
Q

Faces pain scale

A

used as a way to determine pain level of a child if they aren’t able to verbally share

23
Q

Pain mgmt action items

A
  • look at communication and alertness
  • recognize disparities between children of color
  • engage with multiple disciplines, use peds pain programs, use PT/exercise
  • pain attention to child’s baseline
  • believe the patient
24
Q

Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability Behavioral Pain Scale

A

reliable and valid for children with cognitive impairments

25
Pain self-assessment for kids
Wong-Baker FACES for ages 3+
26
Pressure Injuries Prevention
Manage prevent and avoid: immobility shear friction mositure
27
Transfers for kids
* execute safe transfers every time * education for families, caregivers, other providers * includes beds, toilets, stretchers, w/c
28
Stages of pressure injury
* 1: intact skin * 2: partial thickness loss * 3: full thickness loss with visible fat * 4: full thickness loss with visible bone, muscle * Unstageable: full thickness with slough * DTPI: intact or nonintact, deep red or maroon
29
Burns
* 25% of burn injuries in US occur in kids under 15 yrs * can be caused by scalding, fires, electric, matches
30
PT role with burns
* acute care includes assessment, functional mobility, positioning, wound care * rehab includes management of chronic wounds, functional mobility maintenance * outpatient/long term, helping with long term funciton
31
Burn classification
Categorization utilizing thickness, zones, identified locations anatomical proportions change throughout lifespan development, so age matters child's function will be dependent on size and location
32
Abuse and disability
children with a disability have increased likelihood of being abused or neglected AND may have challenges communicating or physically getting away
33
Abuse recognition
* observation of skin * sensitive areas of body * unexplained bruises, burns, scars, other signs of trauma
