Study Notes
- Open heart surgery is NOT used to diagnose ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder).
- A sibling with a congenital heart defect is a genetic risk factor for congenital heart defects.
- A "tet spell" is a cyanotic episode in patients with congenital heart defects.
- When experiencing a "tet spell" the patient should squat.
- If a child with Failure To Thrive (FTT) is experiencing projectile vomiting, priority intervention includes preparing the parents that the child will need surgery, watching them feed, and/or inserting a feeding tube.
- Being two years old is a risk factor for UTI.
- If a child with Hirschsprung's has baseline distention and four loose stools since yesterday, do not give MiraLAX and notify the provider.
- Digoxin can be given if heart rate is approximately 135 bpm, this is normal.
- If a child vomits digoxin, monitor heart rate and give the next dose normally.
- A child with a left hypoplastic heart will likely not need medication after surgery.
- New nurses should have an infant suck on a pacifier during auscultation to assess a crying infant.
- To care for a child with GERD (Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease), do not have them lay down right after eating.
- Cleft lip and palate require a speech therapy referral for feeding.
- A high IgA lab result is indicative for a kid with celiac disease.
- Straining to defecate and hard stools are consistent with Hirschsprung's disease.
- Furosemide is a diuretic used in pediatrics for fluid overload management.
- Penicillin is given for UTIs and appendicitis.
- In a case study, frequent and urgent need to urinate but no ketones in urine is consistent with a UTI.
- Immediately after lip/palate repair, place the patient in restraints.
- After a cardiac catheterization, monitor for bleeding.
- Weak femoral pulses are a finding with coarctation of the aorta.
- GERD is visible through VSD and the Trendelenburg position for shock in a photo.
- To collect a clean catch urine sample: Wash hands, wipe urethra, void in toilet, put on cap, and send to the lab.
- Obstructive conditions: pulmonary atresia, pulmonary stenosis, aortic stenosis, and coarctation of the aorta.
- S/S of dehydration: respirations of 28, heart rate of 135, and skin testing (crying and diarrhea were not).
- S/S of biliary atresia: jaundice, dark urine, light stool, etc.
- Immediately after birth, cover gastroschisis with sterile saline drape.
- At 6 months old, use a catheter to catch catheterized urine.
- Do not take bubble baths to prevent UTIs.
- SOB indicator in nephrotic syndrome indicates a pulmonary embolism.
- S/S of AKI (Acute Kidney Injury): edema, anemia, hyperkalemia, changes in LOC, and seizure.
- Cardiogenic shock ensues when the disease and heart are not functioning properly.
- Kidney transfusion is not expected in HUS (Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome).
- Aspirin and IVIG is the treatment for Kawasaki disease.
- Polyuria is absence of HSP (Henoch-Schönlein purpura).
- Give oral rehydration solution when the patient is dehydrated.
- A murmur is a symptom of PDA (patent ductus arteriosus).
- Frothy, foaming urine that is not tea colored are S/S of proteinuria in nephrotic syndrome.
- For a clean catch urine sample, wash hands, wipe urethra, voiding in the toilet, put on cap, and send sample to the lab.
- Dark urine, jaundice, and light stool are Biliary Atresia symptoms.
- Speech therapy is indicated for cleft lip and palate repair.
- After lip/palate repair, place patient in restraints.
- Hard stools and straining to defecate are symptoms consistennt with Hirschsprung.
- High IgA is a lab result for someone with celiac.
- Monitor the patient for bleeding when conducting an evaluation after a cardiac catheter.
- Pulmonary embolism is an indicator for someone with nephrotic syndrome.
- Give oral rehydration solution if the patient demonstrates dehydration.
- Urinary catheterization is how to complete 6 month old urine collection.
- Have infant suck on pacifier during auscultation to assess infant crying.
- Do not lay down right after feeding when caring for GERD.
- Squatting is a position to use when having a tet spell
- After exacerbation can happens when infant or child cries, becomes upset, or is feeding, you immediately place them in KNEE CHEST position for tetralogy of Fallot (TET SPELL).
- A hole in the wall that separates the 2 ventricles indicates location of VSD (Ventricular Septal Defect).
- The Trendelenburg position is for shock.
- Weak femoral pulses are a finding with coarctation of the aorta.
