Based on Bright Futures/American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) Recommendations for Preventive Pediatric Health Care
Well Child Exam Schedule: History
* What is bright futures?
Bright Futures is a national health promotion and prevention initiative, led by the American Academy of Pediatrics and supported, in part, by the US Department of Health and Human Services, Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), Maternal and Child Health Bureau (MCHB).
Well Child Exam Schedule: History
* Bright Futures Guidelines provides what?
Bright Futures Guidelines provide theory-based and evidence-driven guidance for all preventive care screenings and well-child visits.
What is the Well Child Exam Schedule?
- Newborn Visit (3 to 5 days old)
- 1 month old

- 3 years old and then yearly up to age 21 years
Well Child Exam Schedule->What is the Purpose
* What are the prevent measures? (5)
* What are the growth and development things we what to look at? (4)
- Pevention: Immunizations, Nutrition, Screening, Safety, Parent Education
- Growth & Development: Growth Curves, Milestones, Social & Cognitive growth
Well Child Exam Schedule->What is the Purpose
* What are some parents concerns? (5)

Vaccine Schedule
* What is given at birth and 12 mo?
Birth: RSV, HEP B
12 M: RSV, HEP B, MMR, Varicella
What are special circumstances for immunizations? (7)
- Vaccine hesitancy or refusal
- Unknown/Uncertain immunization hx (other countries)
- Preterm Infants (at birth they may be too young)
- Immuno-compromised (ex. chemo)
- Pregnancy (no live virus)
- Travel (need certain vaccines based on location)
- Increased Bleeding Risk (bleeding disorders-> use smaller needle or medications-> do not give vac after dose)
Contraindications-Immunizations
* If what happens after dose?
* What does pregnancy require?
* Altered what?
- Severe allergic reaction after a previous dose or to a vaccine component
- Pregnancy –no live virus vaccine
- Altered Immunocompetence (sometimes cannot have live vaccine or do not make memory cells)
Contraindications-Immunizations
* When should chemo patients be seen for vaccines?
3 months after last chemo treatment
Contraindications-Immunizations
* What can happen 7 days after dose?
* What diease or a history of should not get rotavirus vaccine?
- Persons who experienced encephalopathy within 7 days after administration of a previous dose of pertussis-containing vaccine not attributable to another identifiable cause
- Severe Combined Immunodeficiency (SCID) disease and a history of intussusception are both contraindications to the receipt of rotavirus vaccines
Nutrition
* Educate patients on what?
* Development of what?
* What type of habits?
- Educate parents on proper nutrition for growth: Breastfeeding, Formula, Table foods
- Development of feeding and eating skills
- Healthy eating habits (balance diet and water-> juice should really only be used for consitipation)
Nutrition
* What type of relationships?
* Address what?
* What type of supplements?
- Healthy eating relationships: parent and child, socially (do not place in front of TV)
- Address eating in those with special needs: Developmental, Genetic (lots of issues with food adversions, premines with senory issues, PKU cannot have phenylalaine, Galaemia cannot have normal formula)
- Vitamins & Mineral Supplements: Iron (babies of anemic moms brestfeeding need iron), Vit D (start at birth), Fluoride (if not on tap), Multivitamins
What are all the screenings that a patient should get from birth to 18 yo?
Screening:
* How do we do the flordia newborn screening disorder panel? When do you do it?
Florida Newborn Screening Disorder Panel
* What does it screen for?
* When might you want to repeat it?
Currently screens for 58 different items (this includes hearing and cong heart disease)
* If a few months old and has sxs, you might want to redo the test because the original one might not have caught it
What is the bilitool for?
BiliTool is designed to help clinicians assess the risks toward the development of hyperbilirubinemia or “jaundice” in newborns over 35 weeks gestational age.
* Hyperbilirubinemia can cause kernicterus
When does bilirubin levels peak?
Peak at 3-7 days old so that newborn visit is very important
* Jaudice will show feet to head then disappear from head to feet
Screening Lead levels:
* Checked when?
* What type of sample is preferred? What can be done?
- Checked at 12 months & 24 months of age
- Venous sample preferred over capillary. A lot of times capillary is done at the clinic because it is easy. (normal levels do not need a venous sample but if high, you need to get a venous sample)
Screening *
* What are the different levels?
- Level < 5 = low level, does not require repeat testing outside of recommendations
- Levels >5 = discuss possible environment exposures and repeat levels
- Level >20= additional studies & evaluation
- Level >45= oral chelation
- Level >70= medical emergency
Safety:
* _ dependent
* What is the number one cause of death?
- Age Dependent
- Injury Prevention
What are examples of injury prevention?
Car seats, sleep safety, home safety (locking things up) , poison prevention, fires & burns, choking, childcare, falls, drowning (very big issues), biking, sun exposure, sports safety, seatbelts, teen drivers, stranger safety, bullying prevention, drugs/alcohol, violence, suicide prevention (depression and violence)
What are mc causes of calls to poision control?
Across all ages 75.5% of poison exposures reported to U.S. poison centers in 2021 were what?
* Break that down into age groups
Across all ages 75.5% of poison exposures reported to U.S. poison centers in 2021 were unintentional.
* < 6 years= 99% are unintentional (TALK TO PARENTS)
* 13-17= 29.1% are unintentional (DO IT ON PURPOSE)
What are the most common substances in pediatric poison exposures?
What are the most frequent causes of pediatric fatalities?
Parent education:
* Educate and discuss what? (5)
* What is required by law and other resources?
Educate and discuss: Immunizations, Nutrition, Screening, Safety, Anticipated Milestones
Provide Resource Information:
* Vaccine Information Statements (required by law)
* Healthy Children.org
* Bright Futures
Growth Curves
* Must occur when?
* Who should be doing this?
* What does that CDC recommend?
Milestones:
* Important to review what?
* When do they need to be evaluated?
Developmental screening
* What are the screenings based on motor (fine+motor), cognitive, speech? (4)
- Ages and Stages Questionnaire (ASQ)
- Parents’ Evaluation of Developmental Status (PEDS)
- Child Development Inventories (CDI)
- Survey of Well-being of Young Children (SWYC)
Basically all the same, just depends on where you work
Developemtnal screening: *
* What are the screening tools for autism (2)?
- Modified Checklist for Autism in Toddlers [MCHAT]
- Screening Tool for Autism in Toddlers and Young Children (STAT)
Developmental Screening
* What is the Ages and Stages Questionnaire (ASQ)
a parent-completed, age dependent based, questionnaire that may be used as a general developmental screening tool
Ages and Stages Questionnaire (ASQ)
* Addresses what? (5)
* What are the ages?
* Currently avilable in what languages?
* Should be completed when?
- Addresses: Communication, gross motor, fine motor, problem solving, and personal-social
- Ages: 21 total age categories starting at 2 mon old up to 60 months old
- Currently available: Arabic, Chinese, English, French, Spanish, and Vietnamese languages
- Should be completed at each Well visit
How is the ASQ scored?
- Below cutoff: Need evaluation
- Near cutoff: Monitor and may need evaluation
- Above cutoff: Does not need further evaluation at this stage
Developmental screening:
* What is the modified M-CHAT? What are the age range + most often given when?
- a parent-completed psychological questionnaire that
evaluates risk for autism spectrum disorder in children ages 16–30 months (NO YOUNGER THAN 16mo) - Most often given at 18 month and 24 month Well Visits
MCHAT Scoring
* Scored based on what?
* What is the score levels? (4)
- Scored based on a list of Failed Responses
- Each failed answer = 1 point
- Score 0-2 = passed
- Score 3-7 = requires further questions and may need evaluation
- Score 8-20 = considered high-risk for ASD and requires further evaluation
MCHAT Scoring
* What should happen regardless of score?
Surveillance should continue at all subsequent health supervision visits regardless of the score
