38
what is bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) associated with
premature birth and low birth weight
39
lung immaturity, respiratory failure, oxygen supplementation and positive pressure ventilation
bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD)
40
risk factors for bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD)
preeclampsia, intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR), intrauterine infection
41
treatment for bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD)
low levels of supplemental oxygen, mechanical ventilation if conservative measures fail, steroid (cause as early use of inhaled steroids has been linked to neurodevelopment delay and CP)
42
complications of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD)
retinopathy of prematurity, hearing loss, osteoporosis, pulmonary artery hypertension, developing asthma
43
developmental outcomes of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD)
increased incidence of attention deficits, cognitive deficits, developmental coordination disorder, poor visual motor function
44
infants who require supplemental oxygen at 36 weeks post conceptual age (PCA) have a greater risk of
developmental delays
45
infants who require mechanical ventilation and oxygen at 36 weeks PCA have a high correlation with dx of
diplegic or quadriplegic CP
46
vasoproliferative disorder of the developing retina
retinopathy of prematurity (ROP)
47
What can retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) lead to
vision impairment or blindness
48
what is the severity of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) directly linked to
poor neurodevelopmental outcomes
49
preterm infants are at higher risk of developing retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) due to the development of blood vessels of the eyes developing between
16 weeks and term
50
what is the cause of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP)
exposure to high concentrations of oxygen and genetic factors
51
if infant is exposed to too much oxygen is can suppress what and lead to lack of vascular development and vasoconstriction
growth factors
52
when does the second stage of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) occur because there is proliferation of new vessels at the vascular and avascular area of the retina
32-34 weeks
53
if blood flow and oxygenation is re-established ROP will
regress
54
if blood flow and oxygenation are not re-established, vessels that grow are abnormal, prone to hemorrhage, and swelling which can lead to
fibrous scar tissue
55
classification of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP)
location, stage, and extent
56
stage IV retinopathy of prematurity (ROP)
partial detachment of retina
57
stage V retinopathy of prematurity (ROP)
complete detachment of retina
58
ECMO
extracorporeal membrane oxygenation
59
heart and lung bypass in which venous blood is drained, CO2 is removed, and returns blood to a venous (VV) or arterial (VA) circulation
extracorporeal membrane oxygenation
60
provides rest for infants heart and lungs, and is used in cardiopulmonary conditions causing hypoxia
extracorporeal membrane oxygenation
61
neurodevelopment outcomes of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation
may have changes in tone, movement patterns, hyperactivity, behavioral problems, developmental delays
62
injury occurs during birthing process and leads to stretch of shoulder/neck which damages the nerves in the brachial plexus

68
paralysis to the lower brachial plexus
dejerine-klumpke palsy
69
what nerves does klumpkes palsy affect
C8-T1
70
affects the intrinsics of the hand, flexors of the wrist and fingers, and ulnar half of flexor digitorum profundus

71
classic presentation of klumpkes palsy
claw hand with forearm supination and wrist/finger flexion
72
nerve is torn from the spine
avulsion
73
nerve is torn but not at the spinal attachment
rupture
74
nerve has torn and healed, scar tissue puts pressure on the nerve causing dysfunction
neuroma
75
nerve is damaged but not torn
neuropraxia/stretch
76
what is the most common brachial plexus injury
neuropraxia/stretch
77
symptoms of brachial plexus injury

force production deficit
79
at what age is microsurgery completed for brachial plexus injuries
3-6 m/o
80
at what age are nerve transfer surgeries performed for brachial plexus injuries
12-18 m/o
81
internal organs protrude through a hole in abdomen
omphalocele and gastroschisis
82
what is the cause of omphalocele and gastroschisis
unknown
83
intestines through a hole in the belly button, covered by a protective sac
omphalocele
84
omphalocele can occur commonly up till when but then should retreat
11th week of pregnancy
85
intestines through a hole next to the belly button, not covered by a sac
gastroschisis
86
examples of protecting intestines during omphalocele and gastroschisis
protections of intestines, wrapping of intestines (compression to slowly encourage retreat into abdomen, surgical closure)
87
what scales can be used to assess pain in infants
behavioral rating scales FLACC (face, legs, activity, cry, consolability) CRIES (crying, requiring oxygen, increased vital signs, expressions, sleeplessness) Neontal Infant Pain Scale (NIPS - facial expression, cry, breathing pattern, legs, state of arousal)
88
muscle tone presentation in preterm neonates
Hypotonia Decreased ratio of type I (slow twitch) to type II( fast twitch), leading to muscular fatigue Lig laxity Limited physiologic flexion Decreased balance of flexe/ext Can be influenced by state of arousal

develop LE to UE and distal to proximal
