Q

When is early weening?

A

4 - 6 months

18
Q

Normal neonatal jaundice

A

1 day - 2 weeks, unless preterm in which case2 weeks can result from fluid loss.

19
Q

Investigations in suspicious fracture

A

Skeletal survey
CT head
blood screen
Ophthalmoscopy

20
Q

Sign of silent reflux

A

Back arching

21
Q

infantile spasms are caused by…

A

Steroids

vigabatrin

22
Q

Types of Left to Right shunt in CHD

A

ASD
VSD
AVSD
PDA

23
Q

ASD signs and symptoms

A

Asymptomatic when younger
Fixed and widely split S2
Systolic murmur in pulmonary area

24
Q

What causes the symptoms in ASD?

A

Right heart failure due to overload

25
Q

PDA presentation

A 
Preterm
Poor feeding
FTT
Tachypnoea
Active precordium, thrill, galloping rhythm
easily palpable femoral pulse

Classical Continuous machinery murmur in pulmonary area

Hepatomegaly and oedema

26
Q

Classic PDA sign

A

Continuous machinery murmur in pulmonary area

27
Q

VSD signs and symptoms

A

May be asymptomatic until pulmonary vascular resistance has fallen
poor feeding
FTT
Tachypnoea
Active precordium, thrill, galloping pulse

pan-systolic murmur heard in LLSE - transmits to upper sternal edge and axillae

Hepatomegaly and oedema

28
Q

AVSD Signs and symptoms

A

If large, no murmur
Can rapidly lead to pulmonary vascular disease
Poor feeding, FTT, tachypnoea

Active precordium, thrill, gallop rhythm

Hepatomegaly, pulmonary oedema

Murmur arises from valvular regurg, rather than septal defect itself

29
Q

Common CHD in trisomy 21

A

AVSD

30
Q

management of L-R shunt conditions

A

Increase calorie intake
NG feeds, Diuretics, ACE-i
occlusion, either surgical or catheter

31
Q

Types of stenotic CHD

A

Coarctation of the Aorta
Pulmonary stenosis
Aorta stenosis

32
Q

Signs and symptoms of coarctation of the Aorta

A

Weak femoral pulses - especially compared to brachials

Difference in pre- and -post ductal saturations
Older children have a murmur across the back if collaterals develop

If ductus arteriosus closes/is closing, baby collapses/is acidotic

33
Q

Aortic stenosis signs

A

Weak pulses
Palpable thrill in suprasternal region and carotid area
Ejection systolic murmur in aortic area
If critical - acidotic and collapsed

34
Q

Pulmonary stenosis signs

A

ES murmur in LUSE
If pulmonary branch stenosed, radiates to the back
Right ventricular heave if severe

35
Q

Cyanotic heart conditions

A

Transposition of the great arteries

Tetralogy of Fallot

36
Q

Signs of Transposition of great arteries

A

Cyanosis
Acidosis
collapse/death as FO closes

37
Q

Transposition of great arteries management

A

atrial septostomy at birth. followed by correction of arteries within 1 week to prevent right heart overload

38
Q

Tetralogy of Fallot Comprises of…

A

Pulmonary artery muscular thickening

VSD

RV Hypertrophy (deoxygenated blood into left ventricle and aorta)

Over-riding of the Aorta ( shifted right)

39
Q

Tetralogy of Fallot features

A

Cyanosis
collapse
acidosis

possible 22 q deletion

40
Q

Tetralogy of Fallot management

A

When hyper cyanotic - propanol, BT shunt

surgical repair - 6-9 months
