Study Notes
Stool Types
- Separate hard lumps, like nuts, and hard to pass, are described as Type 1 stools.
- Fluffy pieces with ragged edges and a mushy consistency, are described as Type 6 stools.
- Watery with no solid pieces, are described as Type 7 stools.
Tachycardia in Children
- A child with tachycardia and poor tissue perfusion is considered unstable.
- The initial electrical dose for synchronized cardioversion in a stable child with tachycardia is 0.5-1 J/kg.
- The correct sequence of energy levels for defibrillation in a child with cardiac arrest and a shockable rhythm is 2 J/kg, then 4 J/kg, and increasing in increments of 2 J/kg.
- If a child with tachycardia has poor tissue perfusion, the next step is to administer synchronous cardioversion.
- The correct action for a stable child with tachycardia is to monitor and observe.
- A child with tachycardia who has poor tissue perfusion or signs of shock is considered unstable.
- The initial electrical dose for synchronized cardioversion in a child with tachycardia is 0.5-1 J/kg.
- The correct energy level for the second shock in defibrillation for a child with cardiac arrest is 4 J/kg.
- The maximum energy level for subsequent shocks in defibrillation for a child with cardiac arrest is 10 J/kg or the maximum adult dose.
- If a stable child with tachycardia has poor tissue perfusion, the next step is to administer synchronous cardioversion.
