SECONDARY PREVENTION

A

● Activities aimed at patients with specific risk factors
● These interventions happen after an illness or serious
risk factors have already been diagnosed
● Disease strategies are individualized. It is not applied
to us. It will depend on the risk factor that you have
identified on the patient
● Goal is to halt or slow the process of disease in its
earliest stages
● Ex: BP monitoring, Heart attack, Stroke. Not all of us
regularly check our BP but only those who are at risk.

Q

Minimum criteria for discharging newborns before 48

hours (Philippine Society of Newborn Medicine)

A

● Uncomplicated antepartum intrapartum and
postpartum for both mother and newborn
● Vaginal delivery, single baby that was born,
completed 37 weeks, AGA (appropriate for
gestational age)
● Normal and stable vital signs preceding 12 hours
○ Respiratory Rate: <60 breaths/min or 40-60
/min
○ Cardiac Rate: 100-160/min
○ Temp 36.5C-37.5C
○ Physiologic weight – should not loss 10% of the
weight; weight loss should be regained at the
10th of life
● Has urinated and passed at least one stool
○ To detect Hirschprung’s disease
● Has documented proper latch, milk transfer,
swallowing, infant satiety and absence of nipple
discomfort
○ The mother and the baby should be able to
demonstrate feeding well
● If the baby is bottle fed, there should at least be 2
episodes that the baby has bottle fed efficiently
● If not breastfed, the baby should have tolerated at
least 2 feedings with documented coordinated
sucking, swallowing and breathing while feeding.
● Normal physical examination
● No evidence of significant jaundice 1st 24 hrs. of life
○ If jaundice is present before the 1st 24 hours
then it can be pathologic due to blood
incompatibility of mother and child and if it is
after the 1st 24 hours then it is physiologic.
● Educability and ability of parents to care for the child
(recognize signs of illness, care of the umbilical
cord/skin/genitalia, maternal confidence in feeding
her infant and parent’s understanding of the
importance of follow-up visit or emergency
consultation)
● Must follow-up within the next 48 hours.

Q

EXTERNAL INSPECTION OF THE EYE, PUPIL, AND

ADNEXA

A

● External inspection of the eyes to look for
abnormalities (Eyelid deformities, Ptosis, and
Hemangioma)
● Pupils should be centered and constrict to light

72
Q

Corneal light reflex:

A

Using a penlight as a target, corneal light reflex
should be seen simultaneously at the center of
the pupil of each eye.

73
Q

Vertions and ductions

A

Using a penlight or any interesting object as a target, the eyes should be able to move together in all directions of gaze (ocular
motility)

74
Q

Cross over cover test (Alternate cover test)

A

○ Alternately cover the eyes while the patient is
fixing on a target
○ so any movement of the eye or if the eye
appears jiggly, then this also warrants referral
because the eye should be steady

75
Q

Key steps for the prevention of blindness in children:

A

○ Proper dietary supplementation
○ Measles immunization
○ Routine pediatric eye evaluation for all patients
○ Subsequent referral of children at high risk for
blindness.

Q

BCG (Bacille Calmette-Guerin)

A

● Will prevent serious forms of TB like TB meningitis
or widespread TB not the primary form of TB
● Live vaccine
● Given Intradermally
● Dose is 0.05 ml for children less than 12 months and

● For infants more than 2 months of age who were not
yet given BCG, PPD (Purified protein derivative) is
recommended prior to vaccination if any of the
following are present: suspected Congenital TB,
History of close contact to known or suspected
infectious cases of TB, clinical findings suggestive of
TB and/or Chest X-ray suggestive of TB
● If PPD test (Mantoux skin test) is performed to this
child, and the result is more than or equal to 5mm in
diameter it indicates a positive test and BCG in not
advised because the child is already infected

A

Tetanus is the one that is capitalized and the
other parts of the vaccine are the in small letters,
because the antigens in small letter are already
reduced since they are more reactogenic for the
older age groups so it is only Tetanus that
remains in its original concentratio

91
Q

● Start complementary feeding using fresh, natural
and indigenous food beginning at 6 months

149
Q

How to introduce complementary food?

A

Begin with one new food at a time to be
given for 3 days. So that the child will
react to the food, you will immediately
know which food is allergic to the child

Start with lugaw or cereals, fruits or
vegetables in any order giving one to two teaspoons a day

Start with pureed food at 6 months of
age. Introduce “finger foods” around 8
months of age; lumpy or chopped foods
at 10 months of age; table food at 12
months of age.

Feed 6 to 8-month-old infants 2-3x/day; 9 to 24-month-old infants give semi solid
food 3-4x/day. Give additional nutritious
snacks 1-2x/day

Offer a variety of foods to improve the
quality of food intake; avoid drinks with
low nutrient value (sweet beverages)

Do not add salt to the infant’s diet before
1 year of age

Give supplements of iron, zinc, calcium,
and vitamin B12 if the diet is primarily
plant-based

Practice responsive feeding. Feed
infants directly and assist older children.
Feed slowly and patiently. Do not force
feed; make feeding a pleasurable
experience
150

Q

CHILD SAFETY IN PRIVATE MOTOR VEHICLE

A

Most of the motor vehicles in our streets are made up of private motor vehicles, approximately 80% of all vehicles on Philippine roads. In the 5- 15-year-old age group, traffic crashes are the 3rd
the leading cause of mortality.

152
Q

Recommendations for Traffic safety

A

● Parents, caregivers or guardians should not allow children below six years of age to sit at the
front of any moving motor vehicle

● Parents, caregivers or guardians should acquire age-appropriate child seats and restraints for young children less than nine years of age because adult seatbelts are not fit to protect
young children.

● Parents, caregivers or guardians should not allow their children to ride two-wheeled motorcycles

● Parents, caregivers or guardians should not allow the use of motorized/ battery-operated vehicles outside designated areas.

● Experienced adult drivers should accompany teenage student drivers at all times

153

154
Q

Street crossing habits that must be taught to

children

A

● Cross only at corners so drivers can see you
● Always use a crosswalk when it is available. But remember, painted lines can’t stop cars
● Cross only on the new green light so you have time to cross safely
● Cross with the “walk” sign only
● Look all ways before crossing the street to see cars, pedestrian, and bicyclists
● When crossing, watch for cars that are turning left or right
● Hospital records in Metro Manila reveal that pedestrian injuries account for 51% of all road injuries. That is why it is very important for us to teach children to cross the street properly.
● Never cross the street from between parked cars
○ Drivers can’t see you
● Walk on the left side of the road, facing traffic, if sidewalks are not provided so you can see oncoming cars
● Use a flashlight or wear or carry something retroreflective at night to help drivers see you

155
Q

Recommendations (Pedestrian Injury Prevention):

A

● Parents, caregivers, and guardians should demonstrate appropriate pedestrian behavior to be good examples for children
● Parents, caregivers, and guardians should not allow children to play along highways and roadsides. Appropriate areas are backyards, back lots, playgrounds, and schoolyards.
● Parents, caregivers, and guardians are
encouraged to accompany young children when walking to and from school to reinforce safe street-crossing habits

156
Q

CHILD HELMET USE

A

Parents, caregivers, and guardians should fit their children with appropriate helmets when riding motorcycles, motorized scooters,bicycles,non-powered scooters, skateboards, roller skates, roller shoes, and other forms of open/wheeled vehicles.

closely

A

supervise children below 9 years of
age when riding on skateboards, nonpowered scooters, and roller skates; and
when using roller shoes

161
Q

DROWNING PREVENTION

A

● Parents, guardians, and caregivers of young children (less than 5 years of age) should be reminded about the risk of drowning in the home or the surrounding community during well visits. Since very young babies drown most commonly in bathtubs or buckets, parents must
empty and properly store buckets or water containers immediately after use. Never allow babies and children to bathe in tubs and buckets unattended and unsupervised. Even 2 inches
level of water can cause drowning to a baby
● Parents, guardians, and caregivers must be cautious about open roadside canals, deep wells, manholes, water pails, basins, and portable infant tubs

162
Q

. LEAD POISONING PREVENTION
