Study Notes
Toddler Growth and Development
- Toddlers take steps by 15 months and stack objects at the same age.
- Autonomy vs. Shame and doubt is a stage of development during toddlerhood
- Fine and gross motor skills develop in infants (rolling over, sitting, crawling, walking, hand-eye coordination)
Concussion
- Direct or indirect impact to head or neck.
- Seizures can occur, especially with sudden body temperature changes.
Glomerulonephritis
- Inflammation of glomerular capillaries causes impaired filtration, leading to water and sodium retention, reduced urine output, and edema.
Aplastic Anemia
- Loss of hematopoietic stem cells in bone marrow reduces blood cell production.
Hemophilia A
- Factor 8 deficiency leads to excessive bleeding following injury or during procedures
Hemophilia B
- Factor 9 deficiency leads to poor clotting abilities, causing excessive bleeding.
Von Willebrand Disease
- Blood clotting is impaired due to the lack of von Willebrand factor.
Tetralogy of Fallot
- Congenital heart defect with four abnormalities (ventricular septal defect, pulmonary stenosis, right ventricular hypertrophy, and overriding aorta)
Cleft Lip/Palate
- Failure of facial tissues to fuse during early gestation.
Type II Diabetes
- Decreased insulin secretion leading to hyperglycemia.
Cerebral Palsy
- Non-progressive motor dysfunction resulting from brain damage. This impacts muscle tone, posture, motion, sensory perception, cognition, communication, and behavior.
Pertussis
- Whooping cough: bacteria in the respiratory tract, causing mild cough to coughing spasms, thick mucus production..
Cellulitis
- Bacterial skin infection that occurs following an injury or eruption.
Poison Ivy
- Allergic reaction to urushiol oil.
HIV
- Infects cells, decreases immune function and weakens the body
Intussusception
- Part of the intestine telescopes into another part, leading to edema, obstruction, ischemia, and potential necrosis.
Meningitis
- Fever, headache, neck pain, and light sensitivity
Osteosarcoma
- Pain and swelling over the tumor site.
Sickle Cell
- Early symptoms include pain, restlessness, excessive crying, and later symptoms like anemia, blood clots, kidney disease, and pulmonary hypertension.
Coarctation of the Aorta
- Narrowing of the aorta, causing pallor, irritability, dyspnea, and absent femoral pulses with murmur.
Atrial Septal Defect
- Heart defect causing arrhythmias, pulmonary hypertension, infections, and a soft murmur.
Pneumonia
- Bacterial or viral infections resulting in fever, cough, poor feeding, nasal drainage or sore throat .
Osteogenesis Imperfecta
- Bowing in legs, barrel shape chest, sclera discoloration, mild reduced collagen type 1, spinal curvature, hearing loss, and triangular face (Type 1 mild, Type 2 severe)
Achondroplasia
- Short stature, an enlarged head, crooked teeth, spinal cord compression, hearing impairment, and neuro issues.
Diaper Dermatitis
- Maintain diaper area clean, dry, and change frequently. Hydrocortisone ointment.
Dyslipidemia
- Elevated lipid levels; statins and lifestyle changes can help.
Acne
- Topical agents, oral antibiotics, and isotretinoin, used cautiously, are treatment options.
Herpetic Gingivostomatitis
- Oral antiviral drugs can help. Ibuprofen and plenty of fluids.
Transmission-based precautions
- Contact precautions (drain wounds, C. diff, scabies, MDROs); droplet precautions (influenza, mumps, pertussis, RSV, meningitis, diphtheria); airborne precautions (TB, chicken pox, measles).
Inhaler use
- Shake, breathe out, inhale, hold breath, and breathe out. SABA during attack , LABA daily
Diabetes Insipidus vs Diabetes Mellitus (DM)
- DI is a large fluid loss from urination, DM is an inability to produce insulin
