Study Notes
Normal Growth and Development
- Includes parenting styles, infant reflexes, immunizations, genetics, pediculosis, and medical evaluations (MEDS).
Wilm's Tumor
- Pathology: Renal tumor, fast-growing, unilateral, often late diagnosis with large tumor and metastasis.
- Assessment: Palpable mass (avoid palpating abdomen or mass), pain, hypertension, and crackles.
- Treatment (Tx): Surgical removal of kidney, radiation or chemotherapy based on stage.
- Intervention: Medical home, supportive care.
Cryptorchidism
- Pathology: Undescended testicles, infertility, increased risk of testicular cancer.
- Assessment: Palpate during newborn assessment and again at 12 months.
- Treatment (Tx): Orchidopexy to release the spermatic cord.
- Intervention: Consultations and patient education.
Phimosis/Paraphimosis
- Phimosis: Foreskin cannot be retracted; common in newborns, gradually changes.
- Paraphimosis: Emergency; foreskin cannot be retracted, necrosis, swelling, discoloration, dysuria, and pain.
- Treatment (Tx): Steroid cream, circumcision, incision.
- Intervention: Hygiene (avoid forceful retraction in newborns), frequent diaper changes, gentle daily cleaning of the gland for older children, ensure proper skin drying and replacement.
Ovarian Menstrual Cycle
- Follicular Phase: Begins with day 1, ends with mature ovum development (day 14).
- Ovulatory Phase: Mature ovum release.
- Luteal Phase: Corpus luteum maintains hormone levels.
Endometrial
- Proliferative Phase: New endometrial epithelium growth.
- Secretory Phase: Thickness of 5-6mm, preparation for implantation.
- Ischemic and Menstrual Phase: Necrosis (about 5 days), 40 ml blood loss.
- Amenorrhea: Absence of menstruation (primary – never had a period; secondary – had, then stopped).
- Hormonal Imbalance: Low body weight, stress.
- Possible causes of secondary amenorrhea: Low body weight, stress, hormonal imbalance, polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), high androgen levels.
- Abnormal bleeding: spontaneous abortion, lesions, and drug-induced.
- Treatment: Progestin - estrogen combination oral combination, pregnancy test, ultrasound, and surgery.
Mittelschmerz and Primary Dysmenorrhea
- Mittelschmerz: Cyclic pain (most commonly in middle of the cycle).
- Primary Dysmenorrhea: Period pain.
- Endometriosis: Tissue outside of the uterus resembling endometrial tissue (asymptomatic, dysmenorrhea, infertility).
Urinary Tract Infection (UTI)
- Pathology: Cloudy, thick urine, noticeable mucus/pus strands in urine, foul odor.
- Risk Factors: Alkaline urine and urine retention.
- Assessment: Infants – Fever, jaundice, vomiting, failure to thrive. Children – Fever, vomiting, dysuria, frequency, hesitancy, urgency, pain.
- Diagnosis (Dx): Urinalysis (positive for blood, nitrites, leukocytes, esterase), urine culture.
- Treatment (Tx): Antibiotics (IV/PO), antipyretics, fluids.
- Intervention: Superficial heat for flank/abdominal pain.
Hirschsprung Disease
- Pathology: Lack of motility in the intestine.
- Risk Factors: Family history and Down syndrome.
- Assessment: Failure to pass meconium in the first 24 hours, abdominal distention.
- Diagnosis (Dx): Biopsy.
- Treatment (Tx): Surgical removal of impaired bowel (temporary ostomy).
- Intervention: Ostomy care and prevention of enterocolitis.
Cleft Lip
- Pathology: Congenital, detectable prenatally.
- Assessment: Inspect for incomplete lip/palate, gagging, choking, and milk regurgitation.
- Treatment (Tx): Specialized team.
- Intervention: Feeding support and consultations.
... (Remaining notes will follow the same format, expanding on the topics covering anomalies, pyloric stenosis, intussusception, glomerulonephritis, appendicitis, and so on.)
