Pediatricc 6th stage
Session notes د.ندى العليEdema :
It is edema or not ?
It may be due to steroid , allergy , underlying causes
Is this edema localized or generalized
If generalized the most common cause is nephrotic
Then protein osin enteropathy , cardic and liver
Pathophysiology :
Increased hydrostatic pressure
Acute nephritic syndrome
Congestive cardiac failure
Decreased plasma oncotic pressure
Protein calorie malnutrition, Nephrotic syndrome; protein loosing enteropathy
Increased capillary leakage
Allergy, sepsis, angiooedema.
Impaired venous flow
Vanacaval obstruction, hepatic vein obstruction
Impaired lymphatic flow
Congenital lymphedema, Wuchereria bancrofti infection
Clinical approach in renal :
Periorbital edema , history of collagen vascular disesase ( SLE , RA
Rash , joint pain frothy urine protein urea
Cardiac :
Palptation ask about it if > 3 years
Ask about faintaing , bluish episode TOF , Protein energy malnutrition chronic illness persistent diarrhea ,
Hepatic :
Jaundice , umbliical pain neonatal sepsis
Acute diarrheoa :
Acute < 14 daysChronic > 14 days
< 60 of body weight marsmus without edema
> 60 protracted or persistent diarrheoa with no edema
Important question to ask in acute diarrheoa
1.fever2. Blood in stool shiga , campylobacter , E.ameoba histolytica in shigillosis is ( acute , fever , bloody) diarrheoa
Acute not bloody diarrheoa , watery
Most common cause Rotal v. 60 % Rarely causebloody diarrhea
4-6 month at least breast milk
Sign of breast milk adequcey
a well-hydrated infant voids six to eight times a day. Each voiding should soak, not merely moisten, a diaper, and urine should be colorless.Stool : By 5 to 7 days, loose yellow stools should be passed at least four times a day.
Growth: Rate of weight gain provides the most objective indicator of adequate milk intake.
Sign of mothers :
Led down reflex and engorgement of breastThe way of sterilization
First wash bottle with cold water + detergent (to remove protein - albumin)
Brush it
Wash it by hot water (to remove lipids - carbohydrate)
Take off the tit and put the bottle in already boiling water for 10-15min
Put the tit for 3-5 min in the boiling water
Then put the bottle in the refrigerator till you will use it
Types of sterilization: o Boiling o Steam Sterilizer o Using chemicals (that are for sterilizing baby feeding equipment)
Number of bottles = number of feeds + 1
Pacifier is route for infection
In Skin turgor take good punch
Ask about Urine output , thirstyFluid in take
Degree of dehydration :
( 3-6 % ) of body weight mild
( 6-10 %) moderate
( > 10 % )severe
>14 % ) incompatible with life )
Indication for hospital admission :
1.Moderate – severe
2.Persistent vomiting3.Social background
4.Diagnose in doubt ( menigitis , parentaral diarrheoa
5.Food poisoning
Treatment
ORS
Oral rehydration should be given to infants and children slowly, especially if they have emesis. It can be given initially by a dropper, teaspoon, or syringe, beginning with as little as 5 mL at a time .The volume is increased as tolerated.
Vomiting best anti-emetics is IV fluid
Avoid metclopromide ( plasil because it causes occulogyric crises )Assess for Developmental age
If there is discripancy can be due to :
1.UMNL
2.Cerebral palsy3.degenrative brain disoder
Anti motility drugs avoided due to respiratoy center suppression below 1 year absloyely contraindicated
More than 1 year relatively
If needed give Adsorbent of water Pectin , cauoin
When you give antibiotics
1.less than 3 month
2.marsmus to avoid septecemia
3. malnutrition
4.food poisoning
Normal increment in weight below 3 months 600-900 g or
20-30 g dailyDevelopental delay causes other than degenrative brain disorder
KernicterusCP
IN ASD finding :
1.murmur with splitingShunt with failure of weight gaining this indication of heart failure
Not respond to medical mean no weight gaining and recurrent chest infection
When see one anomaly look for others associated anomalies
One of the causes of FTT is chronic organ fialure
Respiratory sounds ( continous is ronchi , intermittent is crepitation )Vancomycin is given in pnemonia in staph aureus
CXR showing abcess , pnematocele
