Peds Flashcards
physical fx
z of provisional calc in z of hypertrophy
physical arrest
bar resection if >2cm growth and <50% physeal involvement
Block to reduction proximal humerus fracture
biceps tendon, deltoid, periosteum
Acceptable reduction proximal humerus fx
<5 yo: 70° and 100% displacement
5-12yo:Upto40°to70°
>12 yo: 40° and 50% displacement
angulation tolerated humeral shaft fx
30 degrees
SCH fx
N injury for extension
N injury for flexion
AIN for extension type
ulnar nerve for flexion type
lateral condyle fx xray
internal oblique
lat condyle complication
avn - posterior blood supply
cubitus valgus - ulnar n palsy
transphyseal distal hum fx
child abuse
proximal radius fx
reduce if >30-45 degrees
forearm fx alignment
– Bayonet OK – Younger than 9 • 15° angulation • 45° rotation – Older than 9 • 10° angulation proximal • 15° angulation distal • 30° rotation if distal – Anatomic if approaching skeletal maturity
cast index
<0.8 thickness over width
femur fx
• Up to 6 mo: Pavlik • Up to 5 years: – Spica Cast – Up to 2 cm shortening – 0.5 to 2 cm overgrowth >5 years Flexi nails if <11 yo or <45-50 kg, 80% fill or rigid nail
tibial tubercle fx
type 3 involves the joint
if block to reduction it’s likely meniscus
tibial spine fx
type 1/2 - non displaced can treat in LLC in extension
Type 3/4 need arthroscopic or ORIF
complication is high rate of stiffness and late instability
late deformity for proximal tibia fx
valgus deformity 6 months after, usually corrects in 1-2 years
tibia fx operative
Consider operative
• >5° Posterior
• >5-10° Varus/Valgus
risk of growth arrest for distal tibia fx
post reduction gap of >3mm
tillaux fx
aitfl
triplane
SH2 on lat, SH3 on AP, is a SH4
kid halo pins
6-8 pins at 2-4 inch pounds
what bug needs blood culture medium
kingella kingae
involucrum
new bone formed by active periosteum
sequestrum
necrotic bone atet is avascular
gene for MRSA
PVL gene can cause septic emboli/DVT
joints w/intraarticular metaphysis
shoulder, elbow, hip, ankle
kosher criteria
Kocher Criteria – NWB – ESR > 40 – Fever > 38.5 – WBC > 12K • Kocher JBJS 1999 – 4=99%,3=93%,2=40%,1=3% • Caird JBJS 1999 – Added CRP >2.0 – 5=98%,4=93%,3=83% Fever best predictor followed by CRP
Lyme disease tx
doxy if >8years, amoxicillin if younger
MRI for CP kid
periventricular leukomalacia
GMFCS
I – Speed, balance, coordination impaired
II – Hold railing, trouble with uneven surface
III – Rolling walker, self propelled wheelchair
IV – Operate powered wheelchair
V – Completely dependent
botox mechanism
inhibits presynaptic release of ACH
arthrogryposis hip
pavlik doesn’t work, needs open reduction, reduce if unilateral
spina bifida
maternal serum alpha fetoprotein
spina bifida based on lowest motor level so what is needed for community ambulation
L4
sacral agenesis associated w/
maternal diabetes
muscular dystrophy
duchess XLR, dystrophin protein
Becker less severe
20 degrees of curve is indication for fusion
Fascioscapulohumeral MD
can’t whistle, AD, scapular winging
treatment of CMT pes cavus
Lateral post with depression for 1st ray – PF release and 1st MT Osteotomy
– Post Tib Transfer if hindfoot flexible
– Calc Osteotomy if rigid
• Coleman block test
