Exam 4 Flashcards
(125 cards)
what is rubella embryopathy
greatest risk 3-9 weeks of gestation causes congenital cat, heart defects pda patent ductus artiosus, deafness
when is the embryo susceptible to infections and tetrogens
3-9 because thats when the baby is forming organs
what is the apgar scor
shows infants health at deliery, HR, Breathing, color, reflex, muscle tone each is 0-2 healthiest is 10
what is small for gestational age (SGA)
born at term but weigh less than 2,500 g means that there is fetal growth restriction. causes are fetal placental and maternal abnormalities
what are the complications of prematurity
respiratory distress syndrom RDS and HMD, retrolental fibroplasia (blindness) , necrotizing enterocolitis
what is RDS and what causes
respiratory distress syndrom, caused by prematurity DM C section and male gender, no sufficient surfactant
expain the morphology of RDSS in lung
hyaline membranes that line the alveoli have eosinophilic material that have necrotic epithelial cells and plasma proteins
how can you test for RDS
test the lemellar body from amniotic fluid. this shows how much surfactants there is
ventilator O2 therapy
1.retrolental fibroplasia (retinopathy of prematurity)
2. bronchopulmonary dysplasia
what is retrolental fibroplasia
caused by prematurity and ventilation complication. an increase in oxigen decreases VEG F that drastically increases after going to hypoxic room. blood vessels grow behind lens
what is necrotizing entercolitis and what causes it
caused by prematurity, eneral feeding causing bacteria in gut. PAF causes apoptosis as it is a mediator.
what is SIDS and what causes
sudden infant death in < 1 year. but more common in 2 -4 mo when they sleep in the pron posisition diagnosis exclusion
who is re at risk for SIDS male or email.
males, youger parents
what is the triple risk model
vulnerable infant and parents, critical development, exogenous or environmental
what is cystic fibrosis - what kind of genetic disease?
mucoviscidosis - thick mucous, cuasing pulmonary infections and pancreatic sufficiency, Autosomal ressive disease - autosomal recessive
what is the CFTR gene
membrane ion channel mutation causes cystic fibrosis
greasy stool is associated with what disease
cystic fibrosis
what disease causes change in sweat electrolytes
cycsic fibrosis
Lysosomal storage disease and what causes it? what kind of genetic disease
LSD - autosomal recessive except fo hunters syndrome which is x linked
Lack of enzyme or protein needed for healthy lysosomes, can cause enlargment of spleen hepatosplenomegaly
what is Tay- sachs
type of LSD, lack Hexosaminidase A what is needed to break down ganlioside GM2. they then accumliate in neurons (swollen and foamy - onion skin like) and central autonomic nervous system and Retina (cherry red spot macula and the pallor of retina due to swollen ganglion cells). death w/in 2-3 years. no increase in size of spleen
what accumulates in the retina with people with Taysachs
GM2 gangliosides
what is nieman pic disease
type of LSD - deficiency of sphingolyelinase so accumulation in phinogomyelin in phago cytic cells and neurons.
whats the difference between type A and b of Nieman Pick dz
type of LSD - deficiency of sphingolyelinase so accumulation in phinogomyelin in phago cytic cells
A - + hapatosplenomegaly, CNS , Cherry red spot in retina
B- -orangomegaly and no CNS
-hapatospenogely and cherry red spot disease
type A nieman pick
