37
Does infant seem ill? Look for:
Fever, normal vitals, rashes (SEARCH), mental status Growth normal Developmental delays Personality/attitude changes Sleep changes Bodily functions WNL (change from normal. 1/2 to 3-6 day; 6-8 wet diapers/day; feedings 2-4 hours; normal appetite)
38
History taking tips (5)
Assume a position that puts you at eye level Play before exam Allow child to sit in parents lap Begin with least invasive and move quickly Involve child as much as possible
39
Newborn/infant PE (11)
``` W/in 12 hours of birth Pregnancy/birth history Growth measurements (ht, wt, head) Developmental evals Vitals HEENT Skin Cardioresp MSK nervous system Abdomen and genetalia Posture (extremities flexed and fists clenched - 2 months) Skin (lanugo, milia, erythema toxicum) Lungs Heart ```
40
APGAR scoring for color
0 = all blue/pale 1 = pink body, blue ext 2 - all pink
41
APGAR score for HR
``` 0 = absent 1 = <100 bpm 2 = >100 bpm ```
42
APGAR score for respiration
``` 0 = absent 1 = irregular, slow, cry 2 = good, cryin ```
43
APGAR score for reflex, stim
``` 0 = none 1 = grimace 2 = sneeze/cough ```
44
APGAR score for muscle tone
``` 0 = limp 1 = some flexion 2 = active ```
45
APGAR Scoring
``` 8-10 = good to excellent 5-7 = fair <5 = neuro sequelae. Poor condition. Maybe immediate lifesaving mesasure such as o2 mask ```
46
Head/face exam (3)
Size, smmetry, alignment of skull, face, eyes, ears and nose, swelling? Palpate sutures and fontanelles (should be open. Ant/post)
47

50
Plagiocephaly
Craniofacial asymmetry due to sustained pressure usually disappears by 2 years.
51
Cephalhematoma
Outlined by the bone. Boney and hard because it is under the periosteum. This is more serious than caput succedaneum. Subperiosteal hemorrhage doesn't cross suture lines. Visible swelling might not be visible for few hours - 1 week and usually disappears in about 6 weeks
52
Caput succedaneum
Crosses suture lines Benign and usually goes away in first weeks of life Squishy and soft.

Two orthos to check for hip dislocation
Ortolanis | Barlows
68
Things we'll see in a child who had untreated CHD
``` Assymetry of gluteal and thigh folds Limited hip abduction Apparent shortening of femu Positive trendelenburg sign Ortolani click Short leg side = CHD ```
69
What is CHD
Flattening of acetabulum so hip slides in and out. Laxity of hip area in newborn
70
CHD is MC in what gender babies
Girls. | MC orthopedic conditions you'll see in this age group.
71
Barlow maneuver - how to perform
Adduct hip, apply light pressure on knee. Direct force posteriorly If disolcates = positive. Confirm with ortolani
72
Ortolani maneuver
Flex hips and knees of supine infant to 90 degrees. Examiner's index finger places anterior pressure on greater trochanter, gently and smoothly abducting infants legs and examiner's thumb. Positive = clunk as femoral head relocates anteriorly in acetabulum. POSTERIOR DISLOCATION test Usually becomes negative after 2 months.
73
Moro reflex? And when you would see it
Birth - 4 months Aka startle or parachute Sudden extension and abduction of extremities and fanning of fingers
74
Tonic neck
Birth to 4-6 months | Infants head is turned to one side, arm and leg will extend on that side while opposite arm and leg may flex
75

86
Birth to 28 days =
Neonatal
87
PKU
Both parents have gene (1 in 4 chance) First newborn screening test (since 1960s) Cannot process phenylalanine which would build up in bloodstream and cause brain damage and mental retardation. Sx's start 1-3 months old.
88

92
Leading cause of death in infants 1 month to 1 year
SIDS
93
Highest risk of SIDS
African american | Asian/hispanic = lowest risks
94
SIDS
No identifiable cause 1 month - 1 year leading cause of death 2-4 months of age, at night Baby with more of a traumatic birth may have inflammation of foramen magnum area thus disrupting respiratory centers and causing death this way.
95
Considerations of SIDS
Premature/low birth weight babies Mom ill during pregnancy (alcohol or any drugs) Infants exposed to second hand smoke or toxins/irritants Hx of difficult labor/delivery Sleep positions Apnea spells, bradycardia, cyanosis
96
Recommendations for SIDS
Place baby on back on firm surface and fitted sheets Remove pillows, quilts and comforters from crib Babys head must remain uncovered Have baby share your room but not your bed No smoke!
97
Craniosynostosis
Premture closing of sutures Developmental disorder Increased intracranial pressure and deformed head results. Affects brain development (IQ). Abnormal facial features. May need surgery, sometimes in first 6 weeks
98
Hydrocephalus
Abnormal enlargement of ventricles d/t increased pressure = compression of brain! Obstruction of CSF drainage/excess CSF production/decreased resorption into circulation
99
S&S of hydrocephalus

Infant colic syndrome
109
When does infant colic syndrome work
1 month of age and resolves by 3 months or 6 months
110
Somatovisceral theory of infant colic syndrome
Upper cervical subluxations can cause interference with vagus nerve which controls gastric function
111
Infantile colic syndrome diagnosis
Of exclusion. First rule out serious illness as cause for crying (intussusception/bowel obstruction' Gi disease, pyloric stenosis, child abuse, drug rxn, OM, UTI, GI, URI, meningitis, GERD, allergy, lactose intolerance, nursing technique, parenting errors)
112
Ill child treatment protocol
Treatment trial - 2x/week for 2-3 weeks then re-evaluate Crying diary Usually children respond within 2-4 treatments; if no improvement within 4 treatments, consider other contributors (food sensitivites, nursing techniques) Current research: upper cervical complex, t8-12 and cranial
113
4 S's
Swaddle, swing, shushing, sucking
114
Positive features of breast feeding
Reduces infant mortality and morbidity from sepsis, gastroenteritis, RTI, asthma, SIDS, DM Redsuce frequency of OM and food allergies, other GI symptoms Less likely to be obese Enhance mother-infant bonding
115
Breast milk firist 3-4 days
Colostrum (high in protein and immunoglob) helping with immunity and prepares GI tract to receive and make use of milk.
116
Crosses boob barrier
Alcohol Drugs Nicotine
117
Contraindications for breast feeding
TB Hep B Acute varicella, herpetic, syphilitic lesions
118
Not contraindications
Boob infections, UTI, group b strep or cytomegalovirus | Caution = alcohol, drugs, nicotine
119
When is the iron stored in babes body depleted by?
6 months. Little in boob milk. Thus may need supplementation of vit D. Signs of readiness between 4-10 months = teething or tooth eruption
120
First foods
``` Rice Cereal Bananas Applesauce Pear Mild vegetables Fruits ```
121
Nonspecific allergy symptoms
``` Irritability, colic Rash around mouth, pruritis Red nose, ears, cheeks or buttocks Wrinkles under eyes, pallor Mouth uulcers Sleep distrubrances Flatulance, diarrhea, constipation, bloating, spitting up Fatigue Unpleasant body odors Infants with chronic recurrent ear infections, congestion, asthma = consider allergy ```
122
Allergenic foods = do not feed them these things

127
Red flags for referral
Blood in vomit or persistent vomiting (3/4 events) Spitting up causes infant to choke/cough (PNA) Abnormalities of exam (infection, obstruction, acute abdomen) Underweight babies gaining weight or no appetite Fever Vomiting and diarrhea (infection, dehydration) Vomiting and constipation (obstruction)

134
Diarrhea in infants
``` Loose stools = normal in boob fed infants. # of BM's vary greatly Consider diarrhea if >8-10 BM/day and # or fluid content of stool has changed. If more than 8 watery stools per day and vomiting = danger of dehydration and loss of electrolytes. ```
135
Ddx for infant diarrhea
``` gastroenteritis (bacterial/viral). Viral = MC but must rule out bacterial (shigella, salmonelle, e.coli, campylobactor (blood) - need stool sample UTI, OM, URI (PNA), meningitis Food alergies Drug reaction Stress Too much juice ```
