other Flashcards
baby with shock and unable to place peripheral central line - next step
intraosseous lines (usually at proximal tibia due to its wide, flat surface and distance from the sternum in case cardiopulm resusciatation is perfomed simultaneously
contraindications of intraosseous
- infections (cellulitis overlying the access site
- fractrue or previous attempts in the chosen extremity
- bone fragility
signs of neonatal dehydration
- decreased wet diapers
- absence of tears
- sunken fontanelle
- dry mucous membranes
- decreased skin tugor
- delayed capillary refill
neonatal dehydration - management of weight loss
less than 7%: continue exclusive breastfeeding, follow up at age 10-14 days to check
7 or more: asses for oromotor dysfunction, assess for lactation failure, daily wights, consider formula supplementation
HEALTY INFANTS NORMALLY LOSES 7% OF WEIGHT IN FIRST 5 DAYS
betwetting is normal until …. years old

Marfan vs homocystinuria in lens
both have dislocation
Marfan: up and out
homocyst: down and in
homocystinuria - presentation
increased homocysteine in urine osteoporosis Marfanoid habitus lens dislocation cardiovascular effects kyphosis intellectual disability
a complication of henosch schonlein purpura
increasd risk for ileoileal intussuscpetion due to intestinal edema and bleeding
Prader willi
hypotonia, hyperphagia, obesity –> risk for sleep apnea, DM, gastric rupture, death by chocking
deletion of paternal 15q11-q13
McCune-Albright syndrome
- peripheral precocious puberty
- irregular cafe au lait macules
- polyostotic fibrous dysplasia (reccurent fractures) GNAS gene mutation –> overproduction o pituitary hormones
muscular dystrophies - screening
increased CPK and alodase
muscular dystropy - confirm diagnosis
genetic studies (muscle biopsy with absent of dystrophin)
Down syndrome associated diseases
- Duodenal atresia
- Hirschsprung disease
- Congenital heart disease (especially ostium primum-type ASD)
- Increased risk for ALL
- Increased risk for AML
- Increased risk for Alzheimer (>35)
- atlantoaxial instability
Down syndrome phenotype
- Intellectual disability
- Flat facies
- Prominent epicanthal folds
- Gap between 1st 2 toes
- Brushfield spots
- Single palmar crease
First trimester findings in down syndrome
- Increased nuchal translucency (UL)
- Hypoplastic nasal bone (UL)
- Decreased serum PAPPA-A
- Increased β-hCG
Second-trimester QUAD screen shows in Down syndrome
- Decreased a-fetoprotein
- Increased inhibin A
- Decreased estriol
- Increased β-hCG
Edwards syndrome also called
trysomy 18
Edwards syndrome first trimester (Lab)
Decreased PAPPA-A and free β-hCG
Second trimester QUAD screen show of Edward’s syndrome
- Decreased α-fetoprotein
- Decreased β-hCG
