Q

Tx of necrotizing enterocolitis

A

If no evidence of perforation - bowel rest with nasogastric decompression and systemic abx

If evidence of perforation - surgical exploratory laparotomy

22
Q

Describe laryngomalacia and it’s presentation

A
  • Due to collapse of supraglottic structures during inspiration
  • Inspiratory stridor most prominent in infants
  • Stridor worse when supine, improves when prone
23
Q

Describe vascular ring and its presentation

A
  • Results from abnormal development of aortic arch, such that arch encircles and compresses the trachea, bronchus, and/or esophagus
  • Presents in infants
  • Biphasic stridor that improves with neck extension
  • May also present with esophageal (e.g. dysphagia, vomiting, difficulty feeding) symptoms
24
Q

Next step in acute asthma exacerbation after BiPAP

A

Intubation (not epi)

25
Q

A

Postexposure prophylaxis - rabies immunoglobulun + rabies vaccine

26
Q

Describe post-exposure managment of pertussis

A

Macrolide abx prophylaxis is recommended for all close contacts despite vaccination status (Azithromycin or Erythromycin)

27
Q

Next step if peripheral IV fails in infant requiring emergency fluid rescuscitation

A

Interosseous cannulation

28
Q

What is the cause of “pink stains” or “brick dust” in neonatal diaper

A

Uric acid crystals - normal

29
Q

Tx of iron poisoning

A

Deferoxamine (binds ferric iron, allowing urinary excretion)

30
Q

Sx of DiGeorge

A

♣ C – Cleft palate
♣ A – Abnormal facies
♣ T – Thymic aplasia (T-cell deficiency – poor development of lymph node paracortex)
♣ C – Cardiac defects (tetralogy of Fallot, truncus arteriosus)
♣ H – Hypocalcemia (due parathyroid aplasia)

31
Q

What clinical features help to distinguish Preseptal from orbital (post-septal) cellutits

A

o Orbital cellulitis
♣ Occurs posterior to orbital septum
♣ Clinical features
• Symptoms of preseptal cellulitis (eyelid swelling, chemosis) PLUS
• Pain with EOM, proptosis, and/or ophthalmalgia with diplopia

32
Q

Tx of preseptal vs. orbital cellulitis

A

Preseptal = oral abx

Orbital = IV abx +’/- surgery

33
Q

Describe nursemaids elbow

A

♣ Annular ligament is torn at the attachment site to the radius bone when sudden traction is placed on the child’s arm
♣ The radial head slips through the tear, and when the pulling motion has ceased, the radial head recoils with a small portion of the annular ligament trapped between the radius and humerus

34
Q

Diagnosis of nursemaids elbow

A

♣ Clinical diagnosis – X-ray not necessary

35
Q

Tx of nursemaids elbow

A

♣ Supinate the forearm with the elbow in in flexed position while applying pressure over the radial head – a click may be felt when the annular ligament is freed from the joint

or hyperpronation of forearm

36
Q

♣ Treatment of pruritis (e.g. antihistamines)

39
Q

Desribe McCune Albright syndrome

A

o Precocious puberty
o Café-au-lait spots
o Polyostotic fibrous dysplasia (leads to recurrent bone fractures)

40
Q

Describe problem in severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID)

A

♣ Defect in early stem cell differentiation
• Leads to failure of T-cell development
• B-cell dysfunction due to absent T cells

41
Q

Presentation of SCID

A
  • Failure to thrive
  • Chronic diarrhea
  • Recurrent infections
  • Absence of thymic shadow and lymphoid tissue
42
Q

Tx of SCID

A

43
Q

Describe difference between CVID and Brutons

A

Bruton = defect in B-cell maturation (will have decreased B-cell and immunoglobulin levels)

CVID = less severe; defect in B-cell differentiation (will have normal B-cell and decreased immunoglobulins)
