Q

Pathologic Jaundice

A

1 day old, if you see bili greater than 12 or direct bili greater than 2 (do not need both to qualify)

  • next best test = Coombs test
    • (+) = antibodies on baby’s RBC is the problem
    • Rh, ABO incompatibility
    • (-) = twin/twin or baby/mom transfusion, spherocytosis, G6PD defic

A

rule out sepsis. Its as if baby has a fever. May even want to do LP

17
Q

Inherited Indirect Hyperbilirubinemia

A
  • Gilberts - decr in glucoronyl transferase
  • Crigler-Najjar - total glucoronyl transferase deficiency
18
Q

Inhereted Direct Hyperbilirubinemia

A
  • Dubin Johnson (black liver)
  • Rotor (liver normal looking)
19
Q

Ananomalies assocaited with TE fistula

A

VACTERL

  • vertebral
  • anal atresia/imperforate
  • cardiac
  • TE fistula

20
Q

Anomalies asocciated with choanal atresia?

A

Choanal atresia - baby can’t breathe out of their nose

CHARGE

  • heart defects
  • atresia of choanae
  • retarded growth
  • GU anomalies
  • ear anomalies/deafness
21
Q

When to give surfactant? Ratio that tells you how surfactant is doing?

A
  • 24-34 weeks
  • if L:S ratio is less than 2; high risk for RDS

(remember to check LS ratio on infants born to DM moms bc insulin interferes with cortisol/surfactant)

22
Q

You suspect a baby had meconium aspiration. Next best step?

A
