Q

preferred method of thermometey in non neutropenic pts in the first few years of age

A

rectal

Q

severe malaria treatment

A

must be treated in picu - aggressive supportive care and iv malaria chemotherapy
IV quinidine gluconate +tetracycline, clinda or doxy recommended
monitor for hypotension, hypoglycemia, cardiac dysehythmia while on quinidine
if cant tolerate IV quinidne - consult CdC hot line and access IV artesunate, course followed by 1 of the following other antimalarial agents ( atovaquone-proguanil, doxy, clinda, mefloquine)

Q

Fetal and neonatal erythropesisi

A

both stimulated by hypoxia
FHb has high affinity for oxygen than adult Hb — relative hypoxia in utero
Fetal EPO produced by liver, less sensitive ti hypoxia than in the kidney
Adult EPO produced by kidney and more sn to hypoxia
During 3 rd trimester maternal iron is transferred to the fetus — increased RBC production — prematurity no iron tranfer

MCL sprain treatment
usually with bracing anf rehabilitation
62
Valgus test
Test the integrity and potential injury structures along the medial aspect of the knee this test is performed with a patient supine you start off by lifting the leg off the table using both hands the palm should be placed across the lateral aspect of the knee joint starting with the knee in full extension you’re gonna push across that knee joint and then you’re going to gradually put the knee into increasing angles of flexion until about 30° a positive alga stress test is noted by pain and laxity over the medial aspect of the knee
63
Lackman test
performed with the patient lying supine and the knees flexed to about 15° to 25° of flexion . the thigh is stabilized with the left hand of examining the right knee and the right hand stabilizes the tibia proximately again in about 15° of flexion with the stabilization force on the thigh there is a force poured anteriorly on the right hand well stabilizing the die in a firm or solid in point is felt in this patient with a firm ACL there that we’re gonna demonstrate on the injured side evaluation allotment so we’re going to reverse our hands so now the right hand stabilizes the thigh well the left side of the inner hand comes out on the tibia again about 15° of flexion here and
64
Ottawa knee rules
Validated screening tool designed to minimize unnecessary radiographs in patient presenting with a cute knee injury radiographs should be obtained - isolated tenderness of the patella - tenderness at the head of the fibula - inability to flex to 90° - inability to bear weight for four steps
65
Treatment of suspected MCL injury
1. minimize swellin - ice apply 10-15 mins 3-4x - elastic compression applied to the knee and worn at all times while the awake 2. stabilize the injured ligament - use of a hinged brace - significant pain at night may choose to wear the brace at night 3. begin active rehabilitation - encourage to ride the stationary bike or perform flutter kicks In the pool 4. Return to play show demonstrate full and pain-free range of motion. Strength normal gate before beginning of progressive return to sports activity
