A
  • Growth parameters, vital signs
  • Assessment of perfusion, hydration
  • Mouth inspection for ulcers
  • Respiratory assessment – wheezing with GERD
  • Abdominal, rectal, pelvic examination
22

  • Stool for guaiac
23
Q

What should you do for severe peptic ulcer disease?

A
  • Other studies in severe presentation – iron, coagulation studies, electrolytes, renal studies
  • Histologic exam/culture biopsies

24
Q

A
  • Abdominal and/or chest radiograph
  • Upper GI series or angiography
  • Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD)
25
What differential dx for peptic ulcer disease?
* Goals: ulcer healing, elimination of primary cause, relief of symptoms, prevention of complications * Medications * H2RAs or PPIs as first-line therapy * Antacids 1-3 hours after eating and before bed * Eradication therapy for HP; empiric therapy not recommended * Referral if lack of improvement, blood loss, weight loss * Idiopathic ulcers – H2RAs or PPIs * ZES – Referral; PPIs are mainstay; should be started promptly
26
What are the complications for peptic ulcer disease?
Complications -Acute hemorrhage, chronic blood loss, penetration of ulcer into abdominal cavity
27
Infantile colic
* Persistent crying in infants <3 months old
28
Infantile colic
* Crying >4 hours/day * “Rule of threes” – >3 hours/day; >3 days/week; >3 or more weeks * No specific cause identified; multiple independent factors may contribute * Organic causes * Psychosocial factors
29
What is the history for infantile colic?
* Symptoms fit rule of threes * Demands frequent feeding/fussy while feeding * Excessive gas * Inconsolable; “tense” or “tight”
30
What are the red flags for infantile colic?
* Red flags – apnea, cyanosis, difficulty breathing, excessive spitting/vomiting, stool retention
31
What will you find on a physical exam for infantile colic?
* Growth parameters, vital signs * Full body exam – signs of abuse * Abdominal exam – distention, masses, tenderness, bowel sounds * Stool for blood/mucus
32
Infantile colic dx studies?
None indicated if weight gain appropriate
33
Differential dx for infantile colic?
* Differential diagnosis – all other causes of abdominal pain, UTI
34
What is the management for infantile colic?
* No treatment proven effective; lots of homeopathic suggestions * Review strategies; offer suggestions * Allow parents to talk about effects on family * Acknowledge challenges; follow-up
35

CRYING PUTS THE INFANT/CHILD AT SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASED RISK OF CHILD ABUSE!
36
What are some complications of infantile colic?

39
foreign body?
* Most FBs pass through gut without problems
40
Age of children that have foreign bodies?
* Most occur between 6 months and 3 years
41
Esophageal foreign bodies
* Thoracic inlet, mid-esophagus, LES most common
42
Esophageal foreign bodies sx's?
* Choking, gagging, coughing initially * Excessive salivation, dysphagia, food refusal, emesis, pain * Stridor, wheezing, cyanosis, dyspnea may occur (aspiration)
43
Foreign body EMERGENCY
Disk batteries cause severe erosion* – emergency endoscopy essential
44
Abdominal foreign bodies
* Most FB reaching stomach will pass through
45
Abdominal foreign bodies
* If >5 cm diameter, 2 cm thickness, >10 cm long, may need to be retrieved
46
Abdominal foreign bodies

47
Abdominal foreign bodies
* Coins with nickel, multiple small magnets, lead, batteries may cause other significant problems
48
Rectal foreign bodies
* Blunt objects usually pass through * Sharp/large objects should be retrieved
49
Foreign Body Ingestion
History – complete history of preceding events Physical examination – HEENT to anus Laboratory studies – specific findings unusual; labs not indicated Imaging studies – most FB radiopaque
50
Foreign Body Ingestion Management
* Suction if drooling * Esophageal FB should be considered impacted * Disk batteries and magnets removed emergently * Stomach/lower GI tract usually pass through – not magnets * Send to ED for evaluation
