PEDS Flashcards
anaphylaxis+ transfusion+minor+ history of GI infections
IgA deficiency

MMR, intranasal influenza, varicella, rotavirus
HSV
“cold sore”
vesicle on erythematous base
Varicella zoster
early: chicken pox
reactivated: shingles
- painful vesicles on erythematous base in dermatome distribution
Hirschsprung disease
KUB show dilated proximal and normal distal colon
contrast enema for transition point
rectal sunction bx to confirm dx with absence of ganglia
resect distal colon
asthma exacerbation
oxygen albuterol ipratropium dex mag if acidotic after that => INTUBATE!!!
VSD
LSB holosytolic murmur
echo (for sizing)
reassurance until 1 yo
after 1 yo surgery if size and s/s
bacterial sinusitis
dx based off s/s
tx augmentin
SCFE
fat kid +growth spurt+ knee pain
dx- x ray
always check contra side
tx- bed rest,, surgical stabilization
Legg Calve Perthes
ichemia and osteonec of femoral head ~6 yo insidious onset of limp dx- x ray tx- casting and non-weight bearing
imperforate anus
cross table imaging at 24hrs
distances <1cm uncomplicated
VACTERL eval
echo + NG: for TE fistula and cardiac anomalies
meconium ileus
- ground glass appearance of stool on X-ray
1) GI decompression
2) contrast enema (dx and tx) - associated w/ CF
Intussusception
often preceded by GI bug get colicky abdominal pain currant jelly stools dx= abdominal US dx/Tx= air enema
IF progresses to constant abdominal pain with systemic s/s
- bowel ischemic
- tx= laparoscopy
Omphalocele

common on days 5-14
watery discharge
unilateral in beginning
High risk BRUEs
under 2 months
less than 4 weeks post conceptional
multiple episodes (* >1minute)
choanal atresia
persistence of membrane in nasopharynx obstructing blood flow
unilateral, less severe => s/s during URI or feeding
dx= pass catheter through nose to see if it comes out oropharynx
aka fiber optic eval of nasopharynx
tx= surgery
Breast milk vs breast feeding jaundice
Breast MILK - normal feeding - BM - staying hydrated aka wet diapers \++therefore defect in mom's milk \++quality an issue
Breast FEEDING
- poor feeding
- decreased stooling
++quantity an issue

Adam's forward bend test (screen) Back x-ray (confirm) back braces (treatment) surgical referral (treatment) PFTs (if pt s/s or severe disease)
Tetanus
\+bind to pre-S in NMJ spastic paralysis lockjaw (cannot swallow) consider intubation and sedation to protect airway tx= tetanus vaccine and tetanus IVIG
