    Study Notes

    Gluten-Free Diet Alternatives

    • Alternative sources of carbohydrates: rice and corn
    • Hidden sources of gluten: bread, cake, cookies, crackers, donuts, pies, spaghetti, pizza, hotdogs, luncheon meat, and hamburger
    • Importance of reading labeled ingredients to avoid gluten
    • High-fiber foods to avoid during inflamed bowels: nuts, raisins, raw vegetables, and fruits with skin

    Cleft Lip and Cleft Palate

    • Cleft Lip: incomplete fusion of embryonic structure surrounding the primitive oral cavity
    • Cleft Palate: failure of primary and secondary plates to fuse during embryonic development
    • Etiology: teratogens, inheritance, drugs, folic acid deficiency, maternal smoking, and alcoholic consumption
    • Diagnostics: apparent at birth, cleft lip can be diagnosed in utero through ultrasound (14-16 weeks), palpation of the palate
    • Therapeutic management: surgery (cheiloplasty and palatoplasty)
    • Nursing management: feeding in an upright position, use of Haberman bottle, post-op care (avoid prone position, elbow restraints, and use of suction)

    Metabolic and Endocrine Problems

    • Dwarfism: short stature due to genetic or medical condition, adult height of 4'10" or less
    • Types of dwarfism: disproportionate and proportionate
    • Clinical manifestations: average size trunk, short arms and legs, short fingers, limited elbow mobility, and disproportionately large head
    • Gigantism: abnormal growth in children, prominent in height, caused by pituitary gland tumor
    • Clinical manifestations: larger than average children, large hands and feet, thick toes and fingers, prominent jaw and forehead, and excessive sweating
    • Diagnostics: IGF-1, growth hormone blood test, MRI scan
    • Therapeutic management: transspenoidal surgery, bromocriptine and cabergoline drugs

    Syndrome of Inappropriate Antidiuretic Hormone

    • Oversecretion of posterior pituitary antidiuretic hormone
    • Causes hyponatremia in pediatric population
    • Clinical manifestations: edema, anorexia, nausea, vomiting, and irritability
    • Diagnostics: lymph node biopsy, needle aspiration, and excision, fluoroscopy (x-ray)
    • Therapeutic management: watchful waiting, chemotherapy, and external radiation

    Lymphoma and Targeted Therapy

    • Ann Arbor Staging System: stages 1-4, involvement of lymph nodes and extralymphatic sites
    • Targeted therapy: ABUD, BEACOPP, CHOP, CVP, and COPP
    • Nursing management: lymph node biopsy, secure consent, note allergies, and watch for bleeding and infection

    Brain Tumors

    • Definition: tumors arising from any cell within the cranium
    • Risk factors: genetics (Li-Fraumeni Syndrome, neurofibromatosis), cranial irradiation, and immunosuppression
    • Types of brain tumors: gliomas (arises from cerebral hemispheres)
