Peds Uworld Flashcards
Metatarsus Adductus vs Clubfoot
MA- Medial deviation of the forefoot that moves laterally with passive and active movement
Clubfoot- Medial and upward deviation of the fore and hind foot. Tx- serial manupuliation and casting as soon as born. Consider karyotyping b/c associated with chromosomal abnormalities.
Preseptal (perirbital) vs postseptal (orbital)
Periorbital- Eyelid edema, erythema, tenderness, leukocytosis, fever
Orbital- above PLUS opthalmoplegia, pain with movement, proptosis and vision impairment. Tx iwth IV AB b/c risk of blindness, abcess of the brain, venous sinus thrombosis
Pediatric Viral Myocarditis
Presentation, causes, tx
Presentation- viral prodrome then heart failure *dyspnea, syncope, tachy, N/V, hepatomegaly
Dx- x-ray, echo, ekg, Gold STANDARD- biopsy to show infiltrate of myocardium with myocyte necrosis
Bugs- adeno and coxsackie
PE- can have large liver and holosytolic murmur from dilated cardiomyopathy
Vesicoureteral reflux
Presentation- 2-24 months with UTI
Dx- first get renal US afer 1st UTI. IF they have recurrent UTIs get a voiding cystourethragram
VCUG
Grade 1- into a non dilated ureter
Grade 2- into pelvis and calyxes without dilation
Grade 3- mild to moderate dilation of ureter, pelvis and calyces with minimal blunting
Grade 4- moderate urethral touristy and dilation of pelvis
Grade V- Gross dilation of the ureter, pelvis and calyxes and loss pf papillary impressions and urethral tortousity
Spondylooslisthesis
Developmental disorder characterized by a forward slip of the vertebrae (L5/s1). Presents with progressive back pain and neurological symptoms.
Vs primary/metastasis to spine- usually doesn’t have step off
Primary Amenorrhea
If no menses by 14 start work up
Pelvis US
Uterus–> FHS
FSH low get MRI, FSH high karotype
No uterus–> karotype
46XX abnormal mullerian
46XY- androgen insensitive
Tension Pneumothorax
Triad of Sudden hypoxia, trachea deviation, and unilateral absent breath sounds
Tx- needle thoracostomy
Niacin defeciecny
Pellagra- diarrhea, dermatitis (sun exposed areas), and dementia. and glossitis
Patient either in a 3rd world country with corn and starch as main diet or bowel absorption
Prepubertal bleeding
Trauma- unintentional fall, sexual abuse
Rhabdomyosarcoma- rare, kids over 3, protruding vaginal nodules
Estrogen withdrawal- neonatal period, <1 week and exam otherwise normal
fanconi
Apastic anemia and progressive bone marrow failure. Autosomal recessive
Appearance- kids <16 short stature, microcephaly, abnormal thumbs, hypogonadism, hypo/perpigmented area, cafe au lait spots, eye and ear abnormalites
Cause- chromosomal break
Nec
Presentation- premature, small, heart disease (decreases profusion to the gut)
Clinical- vital sign instability, GI signs- vomitting, lood in stool, abdominal tenderness/distension
Xray- pneumotosis intestinalsis, portal venous gas
Tx- NPO, borad spectrum AB, possible sx
Levels of dehydration
Mild- 3-5% volume loss no clinical signs
MOderate 6-9%- decreased skin tugor, dry mucus membranes, tachy, irribility, decreased UOP
Severe >10% cool, clammy skin, dry mucous membranes, sunken eyes, sunken fontanelle, tachy, lethargy, NO UOP
Vit K in neonates
Give two paraenteral injection of Vitamin K becauase it has poor placental transfer, absent gut flora, and immature liver so they cant produce their own.
Signs may be bruising, bloody stool, IC hemorrhage, and elevated PT with normal or elevated PTT
Presentation, Labs and Diagnostics of Hereditary Spherocytosis
Increase indirect bili, splenomegaly, jaundice, hemolytic anemia
Labs- increase bili, Increase RDW, increase MHCH
Dx- esosin 5 maleimide binding test, osmotic fragility test
Tx- splenectomy
Risk factors for RDS in neonates
Premature Maternal DM C section with no labor Male sex perinatal asphyxia
Presentation of SSTrait
HbA 50% and HbS- 35% Hb F<2%
increased risk of renal issures and usually have painless hematuria that results from sickling in the medulla. Isosthernuria (impairment in concentration) is also common and they have nocturia and polyuria.
Lymphadenitits in children
Presentation kids under 5 nontoxic appearing and the affected node is warm, tender, erythematous and 3-6cm in size— acute and unilateral is usually bactieral (staph Aureus or strep)
Iron poisoning
Presentation
Diagnostic
Tx
Abdominal pain, N/V, hypotensive shock, metabolic acidosis. Within 2 days hepatic necrosis, within 6 days pyloric stenosis
Diagnostic- anion gap metabolic acidosis and radioopaque pills
tx- bowel irrigation, deferoxamine, supportive care
RTA Type 1, 2, 4
Primary defect, urine pH, serum K, and causes
RTA 1- distal, poor hydrogen secretion into urine, pH> 5.5, serum K- low-normal, causes- genetic, medicaiton, AI
RTA 2(proximal) - poor bicarb resorption, pH urine<5,5 (urine is acidified by alpha- intercalated cells in the Collecting ducts ), serum K- low/normal, fanconi syndrome
RTA 4- aldosterone resistance, urine ph <5.5, serum K high, Causes obstructive uropathy and congential adrenal hyperplasia
All RTAs present with failure to thrive due to poor cellular growth and divisin in acidici conditions
Clinical features and management of caustic ingestion in kid
Features- laryngeal damage- hoarseness and stridor, esophageal damage, hysphagia gastric damage- bleeding, epigastric pain
Management- ABC, decontamination so remove clothing and DO ENDOSCOPY within 24 hours
Avoid anything that could induce vomitting like milk, water, activated charcoal, vinegar, NG lavage as this could icnrease injury. BG should be placed with endoscopy as to not damage or perforate.
Benign vs pathologic murmur in kids
Benign- kid otherwise asymptomatic, usually a mid systolic murmur taht DECREASES WHEN STANDING AND WITH VALSALVA. Don’t work up
Pathologic- chest pain, diaphoresiss, syncope, heart defect, fam hx
Harsh, holosytolic increases with standing and valsalve.
Get EKG and Echo and refer to cardio
Most common organisms for osteo in <2months, 2months-4, >4, SSD
<2 months- E coli and group B
2months-4yrs- Kingella kingae
>4 yo- Staph Aureus
SSD- salmonella (3/4 of all SSD osteo), S aureus– remember that microinfarcts can impair flow and increase risk of osteo. Tx empiraically with ceftriaxone and anti-staph dxs (oxacillin, vanc)
OSteoid OSteom
CP
TX
DX
Benign bone-forming tumor common in adolesecents
CP- focal tenderness, deformities, or swelling but usually no findings in adolescents. Pains worst at night and better with NSAIDS
X-ray- hypodense lesion on x-ray
TX- NSAIDs for pain, serial examination and x-rays for 4-5 months to monitor
Reyes- Etiology CP Lab Dx Tx
Etiology- ASA in kids in the setting of viral infection (Flu or varicella usually)
CP- Acute liver failure and encephalopathy
Lab- elevated liver enzymes, increase PT/PTT, increase NH3

Tx- dialysis, fluids, electrolyte correction
Workup for bilious vomitting in a newborn
- X-ray to make sure there isn’t pneumoperitoneum requiring immediate sx
- Water soluble contrast enema- if there is microcolon we would consider meconium ileum and hope the hyperosmolar enema breaks up the meconium.
- If the contrast enema shows a transition zone then consider rectal biopsy for hirschsprung
common resp tract infection in children
Tx for who
Complications
Bronchiolities caused RSV <2 years old= most common
Clinical presentation- wheezing, crackles, resp distress… can have nasal congestion and cough
tx- supportive
Palivizumab for premature <29 weeks, chronic lung develop prematurity, hemodynaically significant heart disease
Complications- apnea and resp failure
Presentation of trachoma/bug/tx
Child in unsanitary conditions presenting with conjunctival injection, tarsal inflammation and pale follices. Kids can often concomitant nasopharyngeal infection.
Due to Chlamydia serotypes A, B, and C
Complications- repeated infection can lead to scarring and inversion (trichiasis) and blindness.
Dx- can be clinical- TARSAL CONJUNCTIVAE or use giemsa stain.
Tx- azithromycin or eyelid sx.
Risk factors for UTI in kids and when to do a workup
Risk factors- girls, uncircumcised penis, underlying renal anomaly
Any kids with a fever >102.2 should have a occult UTI investigation. If they kid is in diapers straight cath, ua, and culture. If they aren’t they UA and culture
