Pediatrics Flashcards
Management of HR <100bpm at 1 minute of life
PPV
NOTE: if hr<60, cardiac problem –> initiate CPR
APGAR scores
7-10 good
<7 bad
Appearance Pulse Grimace Activity Respirations
Transient tachypneic of the new born
most often seen in term babies delivered by c-section
CXR: lungs hyperextended and wet
Tx with ppv
spO2 goals at 0 minutes, 1 and 5 minutes
0: 60-65% (stimulate to overcome primary apnea)
1: 80-85%
5: 90-95%
Pneumatosis intestinalis =
necrotizing enterocolitis
NEC: TX
NPO, IV antibx
VACTERL
Vetebrak anomolies Anus (imperforate) dx on cross table xray Cardiac TE fistula Esophageal atresia Renal Limb hypoplasia
US sacrum, Echo, catheter xray, voiding cystourethrogram
Meconium ileus: TX
Diagnostic and therapeutic water enema
Malrotation vs duodenal atresia: imaging findings
Malrotation: xray showing double bubble and air distally (there has been time to swallow air)
Duodenal atresia: double bubble with no air
Double bubble d/os
duodenal atresia
annular pancreas
malrotation–>volvulous
NOTE: all cause bilious emesis
Double bubble d/os that are associated with downs
duodenal atresia
annular pancreas
Pyloric stenosis: Dx and Tx
Dx with US showing donut sign
get CMP (to find hypochloremic, hypokalemic metabolic alkylosis) and create electrolyte abnormalities before performing pyelorectomy
Physiologic vs pathologic jaundice
physiologic: onset after 72hrs, resolves w/in 2 weeks, unconj bili, rises <5/day
pathologic: onset w/in first day, resolves w/in 2 weeks, conj bili, rises >5/day
Work-up of physiologic jaundice
get coombs test:
if positive, mom was isoimmunized
if negative, get Hgb:
if Hgb low, cephalotoma
if high, twin-twin trasnfusion a possibility in multiple gestation
if normal, get reticulocyte count
If retic normal, breast milk or breast milk jaundice
Breast feeding vs breast milk jaundice
Breast feeding: product of not enough PO and bowl hypomotility
Breast milk: breast milk has enzyme that inhibits conjugation, give hydrolyzed formula
Baby with scaphoid abdomen and bowel in chest on xray
diaphragmatic hernia
NOTE: associated with hypoplastic lung
Hypospadia:associations
cryptochidism and inguinal hernias
Epispadia: associations
opening on dorsal surface
urinary incontinence and bladder exstrophy

imperforate anus
duodenal atresia
Prolonged QT: PPX
beta blockers with pacemaker placement
Postural neck deformity that presents with a sternocleidomastoid muscle mass, ipsilateral head tilt, and contralateral chin deviation =
congenital muscular torticollis
Congenital muscular torticollis: risk factors and tx
risk factors: multiple gesteation, breech position, oligohydraminos
Tx: increased tummy time, passive stretching, and PT. AVOID positional plagiocephally
Best initial diagnostic testing for laryngomalacia
direct laryngoscopy showing collapse of the supraglottic structures
TX severe hypovolemic hypernatremia in peds
0.9% saline
triple bubble sign and gasless colon =
jejunal atresia
Bilious vomiting and abdominal distension in newborn of mom who used cocaine
jejunal atresia
Specific test for lead toxicity
venous blood draw (can confirm positive capillary blood specimen)
Measles: transmission
airborne
Measles: clinical presentation
prodrome: cough, coryza, conjunctivitis, fever, koplik spots
Maculopapular exanthem: cephalocaudal and centrifugal spread, spares palsms and soles
