mod 3 peds Flashcards
i need a cig brother SOS
maternal history that can be associated with heart dx in infant
DM, lupus, rubella, obesity
what does the inspection portion of the cardiac assessment include
respiratory rate and effort
cyanic, lethargic
poor weight gain (late sign)
edema
diaphoresis
clubbing of fingers (late sign)
does a child with down syndrome have a higher risk for cardiac disease
true; dont be so down
what does the palpation portion of cardiac assessment include
peripheral pulse
edema
cap refill
skin temp
pre-procedure checklist for a heart cath
assessment, hx, pulses, baseline o2, prepare child, NPO
post-procedure for a heart cath
pulse check, extremity (temp color), VS trend (EKG, BP), dressing, fluid intake, positioning, activity level
what are the two classifications of CHD
acyanotic, cyanotic
what classification is atrial septal defect
acyanotic
true or false? in a ventricle septal defect is can spontaneously close in <1yr
TRUE, also a acyanotic CHD
what is a atrioventricular Canal defect
both atrial and ventricle septal defect, and a valve insufficiency, low ASD, High VSD, LOUD murmur
what closes the ductus arterioles and foramen ovalale
the babies first breath
what is a sign of coarctation of the aorta
high BP in arm low BP in leg
how is aortic stenosis characterized
decreased CO, fainting, hypotensive, stop eating, stop playing,
what does the tetralogy of fallot include
VSD, pulmonic stenosis, right ventricular hypertrophy, overriding aorta
how is teratology of the fallot characterized
acute episodes of cyanosis (tet spells)
what characterizes truncus arteriousis
holosystolic murmur (prostaglandins given)
what is a hypo plastic left heart missing
left ventricle, closed mitral valve (prostaglandin given)
clinical symptoms of CHF
tachypnea, dyspnea, retractions, tacky at rest, activity intolerance
what is the goal of using digoxin
increase CO, decrease heart size, decrease venous pressure, relief edema, rapid onset short half life, nursing precaution, education
what is given for pediatric CHF
digoxin, ACE inhibitors, diretics
assessment of hypoxemia
polycythemia, clubbing (late sign), fatigue with feeding, poor weight gain, tachypnea/dyspnea, hyper cyanotic spells, neurologic complication (
what is the management of hypoxemia
prostaglandin
manage hyper cyanotic spells
hydration
prevent bacteria
pulmonary hygiene (IS, blowing bubbles)
appropriate activity level
how do you pick up a post op open heart baby
Scoop method- hand under head and butt/back
no picking up from under arms
what heart defect results in decrease pulmonary flow
tetralogy of fallot (not testable my ass)
what is the number one precaution for diuretics
K+ because of the risk of Dig toxicity
dig toxicity
vomitting, Brady, dysrhythmia, vision change, decreased urine, confusion
what does the neuro exam cover ?
LOC, Glasgow coma scale, pupil size, reactivity, reflexes, posturing
diagnostics for infective endocarditis
cbc, esr, cultures (x3 at different times), echo, UA (hematuria, proteinuria)
management of endocarditis
prophylactic abx for high risk pt (amox, ampicillin, clindimyocym if allergic to penicillin) IV abx at home (2-8 weeks), blood cultures
talk to the dentist about risk factors
rheumatic fever caused by what and how long is the latency
strep infection -> valve damage (most often the mitral valve)
2-6 weeks latency
diagnostics for rheumatic fever
jones criteria (two major or one major one minor), ASO titer, ESR, CRP
s/s of rheumatic fever
chorea (difficulty with fine motor skills, focusing and some dance goes away on its own), tachy, chest pain, polyrhythmic, new murmur, or change in preexisting murmur
management of rheumatic fever
PCN for 28 days
alternatives for PCN- erythromycin
salicylates (ASA 80-100g/kg/day)
Naproxen (20mg/kg/day)
prednisone
Kawasaki’s disease has three phases
acute- high fever that doesn’t respond to NSAIDs
convalescent phase- no s/s labs get better
s/s of Kawasaki
erythema of palms and soles, desquamation (peeling) of hands and feet, bilateral conjunctival injection, strawberry tongue, maculopapular rash, cervical lymphadenopathy, erythematous lips
management of Kawasaki
IV IG over 10-12 hours, ASA therapy for febrile 100mg/kg/day
ASA therapy when afebrile is 3-5 mg/kg/day
D/C teaching for Kawasaki
arthritis(temporary but do passive ROM), live immunizations(for 11 months), temp checks
nursing care for Kawasaki
monitor for signs of HF, s/e of IVIG (HA and nausea), skin care(cold compress, soft sheets), mouth care (, parental support
early signs of shock
tachy, decreased UOP, anxiety, impending doom, thirsty, good bp (LOW BP IS A LATE SIGN)
s/s of hypotensive phase of shock
narrow pulse pressure, sluggish cap refill, confusion, lethargy,
management of shock
o2, vent, fluids, blood transfusion, epi, dopamine
s/s of anemia
decreased PVR (not as many RBC), pallor, HA, fatigue, SOB, Pica
nursing care for anemia
diet, admin education( Vit C, usually increased Hbg in 1 month, do not give IM, avoid dairy products), cow milk (too much leads to this), safe storage
who are at higher risk for sickle cell anemia
AA, hispanics, Italian, greek, Iranian, Caribbean, asian Indian
management of sickle cell
rest, hydration, antbx, vaccines (pnomoccal, Flu, Hib) , o2, therapy, blood transfusion, pain med, hydroxyurea, HSCT
diagnostics for sickle cell
universal screening, sickledex, Hbg electrophoresis
what is the cure for sickle cell
HSCT
