Q
kawaski and vaccines
A
when given IVIG therpy, it will remain in the body for 11 months and may intefere with the response to live caccines (varicella and mmr) so these live maccines should be delayed for 11 months

increased pressure in the right side of the heart
| -in severe, the high pressure in right side causes uno2 blood to travel through the left side
26
treatment for pulmonic stenosis
interventional cath
27
contraindication of pulmonic stensosis
diaper rash bc the yeast or bacteria on the rash could be introduced into the blood stream with arterial sticks

29
npo before catherization
4-6 hours
30
chest tubes in peds should be assessed
every hour for color and draingage

35
atrial septal defect
abnormal opening between R and L atria allow the blood of the left atrium to go into the right
36
sound in atrial septal
the back and forth flow b/w the two chambers causes vibration that is heard as MURMER on asuculatation
37
atrial septal defect charastic

visual acuity is assessed in
ages 6 or older using snellen letter chart
40
pistion for visual acuity
10 ft from the chart and asked to read the letters
- begining with the lines of large text to small text
- both eyes should be open while one eye at a time is covered to read
- must get 4/6 letters in each line before moving to next
41
testing visual activity and fixation in infants
following a target usually bright colored object or human face
42
when to refer to opthalmic in infants
if visual fixation and following not presented by 3-4 months
43
viewing set of cards

high contangious
46
imptigo characterized by
itchy
burning
red pustules that rupture to form honey colored crusts
47
contangous impetigo
when treated with anx ointment or oral abx lesions are no longer contagious after 24-48 hours and heal within a wek
48
without abx impetigo
resolves within 2-3 wk but remain contagious until all lesions heal
49
decreasing tramssion of impetigo
handwashing before and after touching the infected area
- islating infected persons cloting and linens and washing them in hot water
- keeping infected persons finernails short and clean to prevent bacteria
- avoid close contact with othrts for 24-48 hours after abx intiation

kidney tumor in children < 5
52
wilms tumor characrtssitic
normally only in one kidney
- unusal contour in childs stomach
- unsual bulging /swelling on one side of the abdomen
- might have HTN bc of exceessive prod of renin but this will require mointoring
53
otitis media age group
infants and children under 2
54
OM occurs after
resp tract infection most of the time
55
the eschuian tubes in infinats and young hildren
short, straight, horizontal which results in ineffective drainage and protection from resp secretions
56
who is at risk for OM
exposure to tabcaoo smoke due to resp inflmmation
| -using pacififer or drinking from bottle when lying down
57
managemnt to prevent OM
eliminate smoke
- routin imm
- reducing or eliinating pacifer use after 6 months
- breast feeding can help but after 1 yr solid food should be starting
58
oitis externa
water in ear from swimming or bathing
59
neprotic syndrome
hypoalbumeia-->decreased plasma oncotic pressure
hypovolemia causing causing --> retain salt and water SO DIET WITHOUT SALT
- edema, weight GAIN, loss of app from ascities
- decrease UOP
- loss of ummunoglics-->susceptibility to infection so limit visotrs
60
treatment of nephrotic
corticsteroidsand other immunosuppressants (eg, cyclosporine)
Loss of appetite management (eg, making foods fun and attractive)
Infection prevention (eg, limiting social interaction until the child is in remission)
61

64
fixed mild dilated pupil
acute glaucoma
65
kawasaki disease dignostic tests
none and it is not contaneous
66
phases of kawaski
acute- sudden onset of high fever that doesnt repspond to abx or anitpyrectics, child is irratable and fevelows swollen red feet and hands, lips wollen and cracked, tongue becomes red (strawberry)
2) subacute- skin begins to peel from hands and feet, irratable stilll
3) convlescnet- symtoms dispear, temperant returns to normal
67
intitial treatment of kawaski
apriin and IVIG (IV gamma globulin)
68
ivig
creates high plasma oncotic pressure and pulmoary edema and fluid overload develops
so mointor for HF (decrease uop, extra heart sounds, tacy, diff breathing)

recover spontanously within days, severe HTN is a complication
73
most important thing in acute glomernephritis
controlloing and mointoring the BP to prevent further progression and pul edema
- I AND O is imp but not as imp as bp
- edema is imp but not as imp as bp
74
what is noraml in acute glomerulnephritis
hematuria
75
diet glomernephritis
avoiding high sodium foods and having no added salt in the died
76
stabmismus
corssed eye due to the weakness of eye muscle or congential prob
77
vision in strabmimus
the visual axes are not aligment so the brain percives 2 diff images (diplopia) and supresses the weaker image to compesnate
78
prognosis for strabmis
if untreated by age 4-6 permanent reduction or loss of visual acuity in the afffected eye (amblyopia) can occur
79
treatment of strbmisus
patch over the stronger eye or use special corrective lenses
| -if non surgical is unsucessful, surgical intervnetion needed
