A chronic lung condition occuring in premature infants weighing less then 700g at birth is ? dysplasia/? lung disease. Infants generally require O2, CPAP. A MAJOR SIGN is increased need for ? or an inability to be ?d from the ventilator. Try and get baby off ? ASAP
Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia/Chronic lung Disease,
ventilation,
weened,
ventilation
Prevention of BPD/Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia include giving mom ?s to enhance fetal lung maturity. Upon birth give minimal exposure to ? and ?, avoid ? overload. The infant may go home on a ? and may have gradual improvement with ? and may have many ? infections.

Periventricular-Intraventricular Hemorrhage also called germinal matrix hemorrhage/intraventricular hemorrhage occurs most often in infants less than ? weeks or <?g The first ?hrs are the most common times of hemorrhage. It is less frequent/severe when perinatal ?s are administered.

PIVH results from rupture of the fragile blood vessels in the germinal matrix, located around the ventricles of the ? which leaks into the cranial cavity.
brain
Risk factors for PIVH in addition to prematurity: if the baby needed ?, infusion of ? solution, ?/?, mechanical ?, pneumo-? Any of these increase risk for PIVH.
resuscitation, hyperosmolar, apnea/bradycardia,
ventilation, pneumothorax
The PIVH is graded ?-? accoding to the amount of bleeding. A very small amt of bleeding at the germinal matrix is grade ?, If the hemorrhage extends into the lateral ventricles it is a grade ?, if it causes distention of the ventricles it is grade ?, if it causes ventricular dilation and extends into surrounding brain tissue it is grade ?

A serious imflammtory condition of the intestinal tract in preterm infants is called ? The terminal ? and proximal ? are the areas most affected. It is usually seen in infants that are <?g.
Necrotizing enterocolotis,
ileum, colon,
<1500g
S/S of necrotizing enterocolitis include: ? intolerance, bile colored ?, abdominal ?, ? or ? shock, ? in stool, ? instability.

NEC is less likely to occur in ? fed infants

Retinopathy of prematurity(ROP) occurs more frequently in infanst <?g. It is caused by damage to immature blood vessels in the ? There is ? and there is permanent ?. High levels of ?, ?, prolonged ? ventilation, ? and ? can cause ruptures.

retina, hemorrhage, damage,
O2, Acidosis,
mechanical, sepsis, shock
ROP requires close monitoring of ? oximetry, and close follow up with ? if baby has been in or is in NICU.

opthamology
Would a premature infant have the same developmental milestone timeframe as a full term infant?
No, they must be adjusted for age.
Chromosomes are composed of ? that are composed of ?
genes, Deoxyribonucleic acid(DNA)
Genes are organized into ? paired chromsosomes, ? from each parent. ? chromosome pairs are autosomes, the ? pair is the sex chromosome. Female = ?,? Male= ?,?

Genotype vs. Phenotype: Your genetic constitution,"", what you are made up of inside is your ? and the observable characteristics, what you look like on the outside is your ?
Genotype,
Phenotype
The building block of genes and chromsomes is ?
DNA
The human genome project is an international effort begun in 1990 to identify all ? contained in the ? chromosomes. This may help us to identify people who have the gene specific to a ? or it they are a carrier of a ? Identifying genes may show a ? that a person has and a need to make a ? change. This project could also lead to gene ?, and modifying the defective gene.

Ethical concerns with the identifying problem causing genes: What if testing identifies a fetal disease with no tx? should testing be required prior to conception?
Substituting one human gene for another e.g. designer babies? Who should own and control genetic info? e.g. patient, physician, Insurance Co.
How should issues of racil/ethic identification be handled? should parents have the right to have their minor childeren tested for adult-onset diseases?
open for discussion
An autosomal ? trait is produced by a dominant gene on a non-? chromosome. ? mutated copy of the gene in each cell is sufficient for a person to be affected by an autosomal dominant disorder. Each affected person must have ? affected parent. Autosomal dominant disorders tend to occur in ? generation of an affected family.
