Spleen exam in kid and cause of big spleen.
Spleen:
Exam techniques: Place child supine, knees bent; helpful to start in RLQ and move superiorly. Lifting along left flank or having patient roll onto right side may help move spleen forward into a palpable position
Spleen tip is palpable in one-third of neonates, 10% of normal children, and 2% of healthy adolescents.
A spleen edge palpable more than 2 cm below the left costal margin is abnormal.
Causes of splenomegaly: infection (e.g. EBV, CMV, bacterial sepsis, endocarditis), hemolysis (e.g. sickle cell disease), malignancy (e.g. leukemia, lymphoma), storage diseases (e.g. Gaucher), systemic inflammatory diseases (e.g. SLE or juvenile idiopathic arthritis - JIA), or congestion (e.g. related to portal hypertension.)
How feel liver and cause of large liver

(from CLIPP)
Liver:
Examine by palpating, percussing in the midclavicular line
Place child supine, knees bent; helpful to start in RLQ and move superiorly
In normal children, the liver edge may be palpable up to 3.5 cm below the costal margin in newborns and 2 cm below the costal margin in older children.
Causes of hepatomegaly: inflammation (e.g. viral hepatitis), infiltration (e.g. leukemia/lymphoma), accumulation of storage products (e.g. glycogen storage disease), congestion (e.g. congestive heart failure), or obstruction (e.g. biliary atresia).

Only close contacts warrant prophylaxis. Household, child care and nursery school contacts are considered high risk. Prophylaxis is recommended for those health care workers who had intimate exposure such as occurs with unprotected mouth-to-mouth resuscitation, intubation, or suctioning before antibiotics are administered. In adults, ciprofloxacin is the drug of choice. In children (<18 years old) either rifampin (p.o.) or ceftriaxone (IM) may be used for prophylaxis.

TREAT TB IN KIDS
TREATMENT OF TUBERCULOSIS DISEASE. The goal of treatment is to achieve sterilization of the tuberculous lesion in the shortest possible time. Achievement of this goal minimizes the possibility of development of resistant organisms. The major problem limiting successful treatment is poor adherence to prescribed treatment regimens. The use of DOT decreases the rates of relapse, treatment failures, and drug resistance; therefore, DOT is recommended strongly for treatment of children and adolescents with tuberculosis disease in the United States.

For M tuberculosis disease, a 6-month regimen consisting of isoniazid, rifampin, and pyrazinamide for the first 2 months and isoniazid and rifampin for the remaining 4 months is recommended for treatment of drug-susceptible pulmonary disease, pulmonary disease with hilar adenopathy, and hilar adenopathy disease in infants, children, and adolescents. If the chest radiograph shows a cavitary lesion or lesions and sputum remains culture positive after 2 months of therapy, the duration of therapy should be extended to 9 months. For children with hilar adenopathy in whom drug resistance is not a consideration, a 6-month regimen of only isoniazid and rifampin is considered adequate by some experts.

When drug resistance is possible (see Table 3.75, p 690), initial therapy should include a fourth drug, either ethambutol or an aminoglycoside, until drug susceptibility results are available. If an isolate from the pediatric case under treatment is not available, drug susceptibilities can be inferred by the drug susceptibility pattern of isolates from the adult source case. If this information is not available, local endemic rates of single and multiple drug resistance can be helpful. Data may not be available for foreign-born children or in circumstances of international travel. If this information is not available, a 4-drug initial regimen is recommended.

In the 6-month regimen with triple-drug therapy, isoniazid, rifampin, and pyrazinamide are given once a day for the first 2 weeks. Between 2 weeks and 2 months of treatment, isoniazid, rifampin, and pyrazinamide can be given daily or twice a week by DOT. After the initial 2-month period, a DOT regimen of isoniazid and rifampin given twice a week is acceptable (see Table 3.72, p 686, for doses). Several alternative regimens with differing durations of daily therapy and total therapy have been used successfully in adults and children. These alternative regimens should be prescribed and managed by a specialist in tuberculosis.
Who gets TB drugs even without TB symptoms ?
1. Child with postive PPD (high risk kid >5mm, kid over 4 >10mm)
2. INH for kids under 6 exposed to infected adult (false neg PPD)
3. INH infants of moms w/TB
If exposed kids PPD negative after 3 months can d/c meds.
What is a postive PPD in kids ?
high risk kid is 5 mm

CLIPP case Key Findings
WHAT IS DIFFERENTIAL ?
*-altered mental status
* afebrile
* no focal neurological findings
* disrupted social environment
* papilledema
Toxin/Ingestion - usually produce diffuse encephalopathy. without focal signs- A chaotic social environment can increase the risk
Lead Intoxication - anemia, basophilic stippling and constipation in child with radiodense material in rectum points to this diagnosis. The presence of cerebral edema and acutely altered mental status make acute lead poisoning most likely.
****Metabolic causes of increased ICP include Reye's syndrome, liver failure, and electrolyte disturbances, which usually cause diffuse encephalopathies, and are unlikely to present with focal findings or fever.
- Increased ICP typically can present with altered mental status and papilledema.
Trauma - head trauma can lead to either diffuse brain injury or focal pathology (e.g. epidural or subdural hematomas).
- Children with epidural or subdural hemorrhages more likely to have focal neurologic findings.
- Non-accidental trauma (abuse) can cause brain injury including subdural hemorrhages producing increased ICP and papilledema. Achaotic social environment makes consideration of abuse important.
Mass Lesion - Any space-occupying mass lesion can ultimately cause altered mental status and papilledema, ***however only about a third of patients have these findings at presentation.***
- The presence of focal neurologic findings (ataxia, gait disturbance) should always prompt consideration of mass lesion.
Meningitis - usually presents with altered mental status (irritability, lethargy, coma) and fever. Signs of meningeal irritation such as nuchal rigidity, Kernig or Brudzinski signs may only be present in 60% of patients with bacterial meningitis above 1 month of age.
- Both focal findings and papilledema rare.
- Papilledema should prompt consideration of other diagnoses.
Most Common Causes Altered Mental Status in 2-year-old:
meningitis, encephalitis,
ingestion/toxin exposure,
trauma (accidental and non-accidental), seizure disorder.

Shaken Baby Syndrome
- 10-12% of all deaths among children who are victims of child abuse due to syndrome. Mortality rate is 25%, and 20-40% with poor outcomes due to neurological injury.
- Injury is due to violent shaking or shaking and throwing. Increased risk: retardation, motor delay or extreme motor deficit, partial or total blindness and seizures.
- Victims of shaken baby syndrome often have no other signs of physical abuse.
Signs and Sxs - constant crying, stiffness, sleeping excessively, unable to wake up, seizures, dilated pupils, decreased appetite, blood spots in eyes.
Risk Factors - young parents with social stresses who make frequent doctor visits for seemingly minor problems, and have a lack of impulse control and poor coping skills.
* 10-12% of all deaths among victims of child abuse.
* mortality rate is 25%,
* morbidity is 20-40% : risks for retardation, motor delay or extreme motor deficit, partial or total blindness and seizures.
Victims of shaken baby syndrome often have no other signs of physical abuse.
Diffuse retinal hemm confirm shaken baby but lack of them does not excl it.
If baby has subdural that already confirms non-accidental trauma.

- Apnea uncommon in arrhythmias, but decreased feeding and irritability or lethargy are common.
- Severe bradycardia, marked supraventricular tachycardia or prolonged QT syndrome could present this way.
CLIPPP
What is colic ?
Colic - syndrome of crying several hours/day, usually after 5 p.m., 5 nights/week or more. Baby comforted only by holding or rocking.
- Crying starts after 2 weeks of age and generally lessens by 2 months of age. May continue until age 3-4 months.
- Infant eats normally and has normal growth.
- The crying can create feelings of rejection and anxiety in caregivers.
CLIPPP
SIDS vs Apnea vs ALTE
ALTE/Apnea and SIDS
Apparent Life-Threatening Event - replaces "near-miss SIDS" (sudden infant death syndrome). Event frightens the observer and includes color change, change in tone, and possibly choking or gagging.
Apnea - cessation of inspiratory gas flow for 20 seconds, or for a shorter period of time if accompanied by bradycardia (HR <100 bpm), cyanosis or pallor.
- most common problem of ventilatory control in preemies.
SIDS - In U.S., leading cause of death among infants 1 month to 1 yo. Highest incidence in infants 6 mos old.
- Risk Factors - stomach sleeping, African-American, Native Americans, male.
- Potential Risk Factors - smoking, drinking, or drug use during pregnancy; poor prenatal care; prematurity or low birth-weight; mothers younger than 20; smoke exposure following birth.

RF child abuse
Risk Factors of Child Abuse
- Perpetrators often exhibit impulsive behavior, may have been abused themselves as children, and are experiencing stress without family or social support.
- No correlation between incidence of child abuse and abusers' race or ethnicity; abuse occurs at every socioeconomic level.
- Single mothers and families with large numbers of children at increased risk.

Name term ?
Spasticity results from a lesion that involves upper motor neuron tracts and may be unilateral or bilateral. Rigidity, the result of a basal ganglia lesion, is characterized by constant resistance to passive movement of both extensor and flexor muscles. As the extremity is undergoing passive movement, a typical cogwheel (caused by superimposition of an extrapyramidal tremor on rigidity) sensation may be evident. The rigidity persists with repetitive passive extension and flexion of a joint and does not give way or release, such as with spasticity. Children with spastic lower extremities drag the legs while crawling (commando style) or walk on tiptoes. Patients with marked spasticity or rigidity develop a posture of opisthotonos, in which the head and the heels are bent backward and the body bowed forward
Nelson Peds
floppy infant ? has what ?
Hypotonia refers to abnormally diminished tone and is the most common abnormality of tone in neurologically compromised premature or full-term neonates. Demonstration of hypotonia may reflect pathology of the cerebral hemispheres, cerebellum, spinal cord, anterior horn cell, peripheral nerve, myoneural junction, or muscle. An unusual position or posture in an infant is a reflection of abnormal tone. A hypotonic infant is floppy and may have difficulty in maintaining head support or a straight back while sitting. Such infants may assume a frog-leg posture in the supine position and have significant head lag during the traction response. Premature infants of 28 wk of gestation tend to extend all extremities at rest, but by 32 wk there is evidence of flexion, particularly in the lower extremities. A normal full-term infant's posture is characterized by flexion of all extremities.
Nelson Peds
ataxia ?
Truncal ataxia is characterized by unsteadiness during sitting or standing and results primarily from involvement of the cerebellar vermis. Abnormalities of the cerebellar hemispheres characteristically cause intention tremor unaffected by visual attention. Ataxia may be demonstrated by the finger-to-nose and heel-to-shin tests, by heel-to-toe or tandem walking, and, in infants, by observation of reaching for or playing with toys. Additional abnormalities associated with cerebellar lesions include dysmetria (errors in measuring distances), rebound (inability to inhibit a muscular action, such as when the examiner suddenly releases the flexed arm and the patient inadvertently strikes the face), and disdiadochokinesia (diminished performance of rapid alternating movements). Hypotonia, dysarthria, nystagmus, and decreased deep tendon reflexes are common features of cerebellar abnormalities. Sensory ataxia is found with diseases of the spinal cord and peripheral nerves. In these disorders, the Romberg sign is positive (patient is unsteady with eyes closed, but not when they are open), and there are often related sensory findings including abnormalities in joint position and vibration sense.
nelson peds
chorea in kids
Chorea is characterized by irregular involuntary movements of the major joints, trunk, and the face that are rapid and jerky. Affected children are incapable of extending their arms without producing abnormal movements. They have a tendency to pronate the arms when held above the head. The hand grip contracts and relaxes (milkmaid sign), the speech is explosive and inarticulate, the deep tendon reflexes of the knee are “hung up,” and patients may have difficulty in maintaining protrusion of the tongue.
nelsons peds
dystonia and athetosis ?
Athetosis is a slow, writhing movement that is often associated with abnormalities of muscle tone. It is most prominent in the distal extremities and is enhanced by voluntary activity or emotional upset. Speech and swallowing may be affected. Chorea and athetosis are the result of basal ganglia lesions and are difficult to separate clinically. Both may be prominent in the same patient. Dystonia is an involuntary, slow twisting movement that primarily involves the proximal muscles of the extremities, trunk, and neck. Nelsons Peds
kids DTRs.
* extra : crossed adductor response
The knee jerk in an infant may produce a crossed adductor response (tapping the patellar tendon in one leg causes contraction in the opposite extremity), which, if present, does not become abnormal until 6–7 mo of age. The deep tendon reflexes are absent or decreased in primary disorders of the muscle (myopathy), nerve (neuropathy), and myoneural junction and in abnormalities of the cerebellum. They are characteristically increased in upper motor neuron lesions. Asymmetry of deep tendon reflexes suggests a lateralizing lesion.
Nelson Peds
Babinski kids and newborns
The plantar response is obtained by stimulation of the external portion of the sole of the foot, beginning at the heel and extending to the base of the toes. Firm pressure from the examiner's thumb is a useful method for eliciting the response. The Babinski reflex, indicating an upper motor neuron lesion, is characterized by extension of the great toe and by fanning of the remaining toes. Too vigorous stimulation may produce withdrawal, which may be misinterpreted as a Babinski response. Most newborn infants show an initial flexion of the great toe on plantar stimulation. As with adults, asymmetry of the plantar response between extremities is a useful lateralizing sign in infants and children.
tonic neck reflex
The grasp response is elicited by placing a finger or object in the open palm of each hand. Normal infants grasp the object, and with attempted removal, the grip is reinforced. The tonic neck reflex is produced by manually turning the head to one side while supine. Extension of the arm occurs on that side of the body corresponding to the direction of the face, while flexion develops in the contralateral extremities. An obligatory tonic neck response, by which the infant remains “locked” in the fencer's position, is always abnormal and implies a CNS dis-order.
Onset : 35 weeks
Full: 1 month
Duration: 6-7 months
parachute reflex
The parachute reflex is demonstrated by suspending the child by the trunk and by suddenly producing forward flexion as if the child were to fall. The child spontaneously extends the upper extremities as a protective mechanism. The parachute reflex appears before the onset of walking.
onset: 7-8 months
Full at : 10-11 months
remains thru life
Moro
Moro reflex is obtained by placing the infant in a semi-upright position. The head is momentarily allowed to fall backward, with immediate resupport by the examiner's hand. The child symmetrically abducts and extends the arms and flexes the thumbs, followed by flexion and adduction of the upper extremities. An asymmetric response may signify a fractured clavicle, brachial plexus injury, or a hemiparesis. Absence of the Moro reflex in a term newborn is ominous, suggesting significant dysfunction of the CNS.
MORO onset 28-32 weeks
Full 37 weeks
duration 5-6 months
walking like a toy soldier
The spastic gait
waddling gait
waddling gait results from weakness of the proximal hip girdle. Affected children often develop a compensatory lordosis and have difficulty in climbing stairs.
clumsy, tentative gait
Weakness or hypotonia of the lower extremities may result in genu recurvatum and flat feet, which causes a clumsy, tentative gait.
CI to LP
Contraindications for performing an LP include: (1) elevated ICP owing to a suspected mass lesion of the brain or spinal cord, (2) symptoms and signs of pending cerebral herniation in a child with probable meningitis, (3) critical illness (on rare occasions), (4) skin infection at the site of the LP, and (5) thrombocytopenia plt under 20

Howell-Jolly bodies

Howell-Jolly bodies are spherical blue-black inclusions of red blood cells seen on Wright-stained smears. They are nuclear fragments of condensed DNA, 1 to 2 µm in diameter, normally removed by the spleen. They are seen in severe hemolytic anemias, in patients with dysfunctional spleens or after splenectomy.
Nucleated red blood cells, (nrbcs or normoblasts), represent the stages of a red blood cell before it matures. Cells of this stage are usually seen in newborn infants, and in patients with responses to hemolytic crises, such as in megaloblastic anemia and iron deficiency anemia. The average size of the normoblast is 7-12 µm in diameter. The cytoplasm is pink. The nucleus is pyknotic (a homogeneous blue-black mass with no structure).
Pappenheimer bodies

Pappenheimer bodies are iron containing granules in red blood cells that are seen because the iron is aggregated with mitochondria and ribosomes. They appear as faint violet or magenta specks, often in small clusters, due to staining of the associated protein. They are associated with severe anemias and thalassemias.

Red flags are raised to the possibility of Crohn's disease when a patient with abdominal pain experiences any of the following:

1. Pain that awakens the child at night
2. Pain that can be localized
3. Involuntary weight loss or growth deceleration
4. Extraintestinal symptoms such as fever, rash, joint pain, aphthous ulcers or dysuria
5. Sleepiness after attacks of pain
6. Positive family history of inflammatory bowel disease (although only positive in about 30% of patients)
7. Abnormal labs such as heme + stool, anemia, high platelet count or high ESR, hypoalbuminemia
8. Abnormalities in bowel function (diarrhea, constipation, incontinence)
9. Vomiting
10. Dysuria
CLIPP
functional ab pain in children
CLIPP
Functional Abdominal Pain - diagnosis of exclusion that should not present with associated abnormalities.
- Most common cause of chronic abdominal pain among children.
- Bloody stools rule out this diagnosis.
- Growth failure strongly suggests constitutional disease.
- Abdominal pain usually nonspecific, not associated with other symptoms, and not life-threatening.
- Treatment - reassuring patient and parents.
UC
CLIPP
Ulcerative Colitis (UC) - remitting and relapsing inflammation of the large intestine.
Age - peaks between adolescence and early adulthood (15-30 yo).

Signs and Symptoms:
- In mild cases - insidious onset of diarrhea, later associated with hematochezia (passage of bloody stools). No systemic findings of fever, weight loss or hypoalbuminemia.
- In moderate disease - bloody diarrhea, cramps, urgency to defecate, and abdominal tenderness. Associated findings include anorexia, weight loss, low-grade fever and mild anemia.
- Severe colitis - > 6 bloody stools per day, abdominal tenderness, fever, anemia, leukocytosis and hypoalbuminemia. Complications include severe hemorrhage, toxic megacolon or intestinal perforation.
- <5% of children with mostly extraintestinal manifestations (growth failure, arthropathy, skin manifestations, or liver disease).
Findings:
- diffuse, continuous from rectum and extending to colon. Mucosa is friable and erythematous; small ulcerations and pseudopolyps.
- UC always affects rectum, with contiguous involvement that can include entire large intestine.
Dx - distinguish CD from UC with radiography and endoscopy (upper GI with small bowel follow-through).
Treatment - anti-inflammatory therapy with 5-ASA preparations (Sulfasalazine or Azulfidine), mesalamine (Pentasa, Asacol); corticosteroids; immunosuppressive agents (6-mercaptopurine (Purinethol) and azathioprine (Imuran); cyclosporin.
Prognosis - 25-40% of patients with ulcerative colitis will eventually require colectomy to treat the disease, but this most often does not occur until adulthood.
treatment cronhns
CLIPP
Treatment - 1st line treatment for mild-moderate CD is mesalamine (5-aminosalicylic acid). May require prednisone; budesonide; antibiotics; immunomodulators (azathiprine, 6-mercaptopurine, methotrexate and cyclosporine); monoclonal antibody (infliximab - brand name: Remicade).

what is toddler's diarrhea ?
Toddler diarrhea is a common pediatric condition. In infants it is referred to as chronic diarrhea of infancy and in older children as irritable bowel syndrome. Common clinical characteristics include:

1. Age between 6-30 months. Most are better by 4 years of age
2. 2-6 watery stools per day. There can be periods of days without stools. Many stools contain undigested material and may drip down the child's leg from the diaper.
3. Normal weight, height, and head circumference growth curves without falling off
4. No evidence of infection
5. Stools are hematest negative
6. The child looks well and there is no evidence of malnutrition and no history of abdominal pain
7. Growth may be compromised if the diet manipulations that have been tried to control the diarrhea have not been enough calories.
8. There is often a history of colic, gastroesophogeal reflux, and family history of irritable bowel syndrome.
Erythema Toxicum Neonatorum
Onset in the second to third day of life, mostly in term babies of lesions characterised by a central whitish to yellowish papule surrounded by a halo of erythema, mainly over the trunk but also in the limbs and face. Lesions may intensify or coalesce particularly in response to local heat. They wax and wane over the ensuing 3 to 6 days. They are benign. Aetiology is unknown.
Seborrhoeic dermatitis primarily affects the scalp and intertriginous areas. It is most common in the first 6 weeks of life, but can occur in children up to 12 months of age. Involvement of the scalp is frequently termed "cradle cap", and manifests as greasy, yellow plaques on the scalp. Other commonly affected areas include the forehead and eyebrows (as in the photo to the left), nasolabial folds, and external ears. Involvement of skin creases, such as the nappy area, can lead to secondary Candidal infection and maceration.

The aetiology is unknown. Treatment includes the use of a mild tar shampoo, oatmeal baths, and avoidance of soaps. Occasionally, a mild topical steroid may be indicated.
The photos show a typical Mongolian spot with bluish discoloration.

This is a very common benign skin pigmentation occurring frequently in Polynesian, Asian and Mediterranean babies but also, though to a much lesser extent, in Europeans.

Although the intergluteal area is the most common site, similar lesions may occur over the trunk or extremeties and at times multiple lesions may be noted. Such lesions have been confused for bruises of child abuse. They gradually fade during the first few years of life.
name newborn rash ?
Pustular melanosis
Lesions are present at birth and are characterised by superficial pustules which rupture easily without any actual pus content, leaving a spot of hyperpigmentation. Some hyperpigmented lesions may be present at birth. Any area of the body may be involved. The pustules last for a day or two but the pigmented spots may persist for a long time. Aetiology is unknown. Smears from the pustules reveal polymorphonuclear leukocytes with absence of organisms.

Kids language
When say mama
when babble
when 2 words together ?
clipp
At 6-8 months, the infant has added a few consonant sounds to the vowel sounds, and may say "mama" or "dada" but does not attach them to individuals.

At a year, the infant will attach "mama" or "dada" to the right person. The infant can respond to one-step commands such as "Give it to me."

At 15 months, the toddler continues to string vowel and consonant sounds together (gibberish), but may imbed real words. The infant may say as many as 10 different words.

At 18 months, a toddler can say nouns (ball, cup), names of special people, and a few action words or phrases. The toddler adds gestures to her speech, and may be able to follow a two-step command.

At 2 years, the toddler can combine words, forming simple sentences like "Daddy go."
What about milestones in a toddler that is having psychosocial stress ?
clipp
Most often, a regression in previously achieved behaviors is seen in response to stress. For toddlers, temper tantrums, sleep disturbances and refusal to eat are common adaptations. Language acquisition may be slowed during periods of stress. During hospitalization (an extreme form of stress) children may develop increased dependency, enuresis or encopresis. If a child has recently gained motor milestones and is ill, the achievements may be temporarily lost.
Periventricular leukomalacia (PVL)
what is it ?
clipp
Periventricular leukomalacia (PVL): PVL is the result of damage to the white matter surrounding the ventricles in the brain as a result of hypoxia, ischemia and inflammation. It is correlated with intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH). IVH is bleeding from the delicate vessels of the neuronal and glial proliferation zone (the germinal matrix) that surrounds the lateral ventricles in preterm infants and fetuses. It is likely that damage to the white matter is actually more widespread, but not easily visualized using current clinical imaging techniques. PVL with cysts (cystic PVL) is highly correlated with CP.

Premature -> spastic diplegia (periventric white matter abn like PLeukmalacia) ...One subtype of CP, spastic diplegia, is greatly increased in premature infants. A broad range of severity is seen in individuals with spastic diplegia. Lower-extremity involvement causes difficulty with walking and increases the risk for hip dysplasia, scoliosis and calf-muscle shortening. Upper-extremity involvement can cause difficulty in fine-motor tasks such as writing. Some children with spastic diplegia also have cognitive impairments.

What tests ?
Clipp
Infants with some of these disorders may present with lethargy and hypothermia (you must also consider sepsis). Older children may present with lethargy, vomiting and coma, developmental regression or chronic vomiting. Other disorders, such as phenylketonuria, are not usually associated with metabolic exacerbations and can remain clinically undetected until some degree of CNS damage has occurred. This is the reason that newborn screening for PKU was first developed. A careful family history may uncover children with similar presentations or early unexplained infant deaths. Some experts recommend quantitative amino-acid testing on urine and plasma in children with mental retardation and no specific physical findings.
Tests to diag CP ?
clipp
Diagnosing CP:
- MRI is critical 89% of children with CP have an abnormal MRI
- Genetic and metabolic testing should be performed in patients with dysmorphic features, growth failure or developmental regression
- Hearing and vision in all
- In-depth assessment by a developmental specialist: For an infant, this is often done with a Bayley Scales of Infant Development
- Coagulation studies: if hemiplegia,
- EEGs: only if there is a history suggestive of seizures.
REceptive vs expressive lang better for assesing LT lang outcome ?

clipp
Assessment: Receptive language (what the child understands) is a better indicator of long-term outcome than expressive language (speech). Ask questions about the child's ability to follow directions, with or without gestures; does the child seem to pay attention; does he hear well? Then ask about words he says and if he uses the words correctly.

Mental retardation/Cognitive disability: Definition of mental retardation has 3 components:
1. Onset before 18 years of age
2. Some degree of cognitive impairment
3. Some degree of impaired adaptive behavior.
The most common definition of cognitive impairment is an IQ more than 2 standard deviations below the population mean. Visual deficits or chronic illness can affect IQ measurement. Assessment of adaptive behavior should guide therapy.

Fragile X syndrome is caused by the expansion of a trinucleotide repeat segment (involving CGG repeats) that is just outside the coding region of the FMR1 gene on the X chromosome. Affected males usually have more than 200 repeats, while normal individuals usually have fewer than 50. Individuals with 52-200 repeats have a premutation that has the potential of expanding to a larger size, perhaps to a full mutation. This expansion is more likely to occur when the gene with the premutation is inherited from the mother, and the larger the size of the premutation, the greater the chance of expansion to a full mutation. There is some correlation between the severity of the mental retardation and the size of the expansion in the full mutation.

Fragile X syndrome is an X-linked trait, and most affected individuals are male. Females with a full mutation range from being asymptomatic to having mental retardation and/or psychiatric problems. Findings in males may include large testes (after puberty), large ears and evidence of a mild connective tissue abnormality (joint laxity, pectus excavatum, flat feet)

[clipp]
Fever may be the only sign of sepsis in children with sickle cell disease and must be dealt with as a medical emergency, with rapid evaluation, blood cultures and institution of broad-spectrum parenteral antibiotics.

The lack of normal splenic function as well as several other more subtle immunologic deficiencies call for this rapid and aggressive approach.

Evaluation of cerebral blood-vessel flow by Trans Cranial Doppler (TCD) study has been shown to be a useful screening tool for those children with sickle cell disease who are at increased risk of stroke. Chronic transfusion therapy in children with elevated TCD blood flow has been shown to significantly decrease the risk of stroke
acute chest
[ clipp ]
cute chest syndrome: A recent prospective study of acute chest syndrome (ACS) in patients with sickle cell disease reported 80% presented with fever, 62% had cough, and 44% had chest pain. 48% were admitted for other reasons and developed ACS while hospitalized. Mean O2 sats were 92%. A specific cause was found in 38% (infection or pulmonary fat embolism). Average hospitalization was 10 days. Of these patients, 3% died of ACS or other complications. NEJM 342; 1855, 2000. ACS can develop in children admitted for a painful vaso-occlusive crisis. In this situation, the chest findings may be a result of fat embolism. It is also possible that the findings in the chest result from vaso-occlusion of pulmonary vasculature. It is always difficult to distinguish whether an infiltrate in the lung of a child with sickle cell disease represents an infectious process, pneumonia or atelectasis (pain in the chest or abdomen can lead to difficulty with expansion of the lower lung).

How to quantify proteinuria in children
The degree of proteinuria can be better quantified by 24-hour collection or by spot measurements of both urine protein and creatinine. In children it is difficult to obtain accurate 24-hour collections, so a urine protein:creatinine ratio is very useful.

Urine protein (mg/dL) / Urine creatinine = protein:creatinine ratio:

<0.2 is normal in children older than 2 years (<0.5 is normal in 6- to 24-month-olds)
>1.0 is in a suspicious range for nephrotic syndrome
>2.5 is diagnostic for nephrotic syndrome


24-hour collection:
- Normal amount of protein excreted is less than or equal to 4 mg/m2/hr
- Abnormal: 4-40 mg/m2/hour
- Nephrotic range: Greater than or equal to 40 mg/m2/hour

clipp
in child,
benign causes of proteinuria
Children may excrete 1+ to 2+ (30-100 mg/dL) of protein during a fever or after significant exertion, which clears after resolution of the fever or exertion. Orthostatic proteinuria is a frequent finding in adolescents and does not signify renal disease. There may be as much as 1500 mg/1.73 m2/24 hours, but protein excretion occurs when the patient is standing, not while recumbent. When the first morning urine is checked it should be negative for protein.
clipp
Interstitial nephritis
does it cause ptn uria ? or hematuria ?
Interstitial nephritis can be associated with red and white blood cells in the urine, but not with this massive degree of proteinuria. In children, interstitial nephritis is rare and usually caused by a medication such as Methicillin (no longer available in the United States), NSAIDs, penicillins, cephalosporins, rifampin, sulfonamides, or infection.

which kids to do renal biopsy

clipp
Patients who do not respond to steroids with elimination of proteinuria after 8 weeks of therapy are designated "steroid resistant" and need a renal biopsy when medically stable to determine if they have Mesangial Proliferative Disease. Other indications for renal biopsy in patients with NS include:

1) All patients younger than 1 year of age (increased chance of congenital NS);
2) Infants >3 months and <18 months of age with hematuria;
3) Children >10 years of age if the diagnosis is not a drug reaction or postinfectious glomerulonephritis;
4) Children with type I diabetes <10 years' duration;
5) Children of all ages who have hematuria and proteinuria if the mother has hematuria (Alport syndrome);
6) Children with Henoch-Schoenlein purpura;
7) Children with non-postinfectious glomerulonephritis with progressive decline in renal function and urine output;
8) Patients with suspected lupus nephritis with a positive ANA, elevated anti-DS DNA titer, and a decrease in C3 that persists more than 3 months;
9) Patients with steroid-responsive NS who have more than two relapses in a 6-month period (“frequent relapsers");
10) Patients with a low serum complement at the time of initial presentation not related to acute postinfectious glomerulonephritis;
11) Hypertension at the time of presentation with NS (increased risk for focal segmental glomerulonephropathy);
12) Patients with systemic lupus erythematosus with proteinuria or NS;
13) Evidence of chronic renal insufficiency with persistent elevation of serum urea nitrogen and creatinine.

The prognosis is less favorable for mesangial proliferative disease, which causes about 5% of idiopathic nephrotic syndrome. The histology is characterized by a diffuse increase in mesangial cells and matrix. Only about half of these patients will respond to corticosteroid therapy.

The worst prognosis is for the roughly 10% of patients with idiopathic nephrotic syndrome who have focal sclerosis.
treatment nephrotic syndrome

clipp
Treatment
- IV furosemide, preceded by albumin infusion. Never treat with diuretic alone! Can lower intravascular volume to dangerously low levels.
- Corticosteroids
- No-added-salt diet.
- When in remission, give polyvalent pneumococcal vaccine.
For children who relapse frequently, treat with cyclophosphamide, chlorambucil, and/or cyclosporine for 8-12 wks, or longer. Most outgrow this disease by their late teens without permanent renal damage.

By the 3rd day of life, bowel movements should begin to appear yellow (no longer meconium) and by the 6th-7th day there are usually 3-4 stools per day (some have stools with every feeding). The baby should void 3 to 4 times a day by the third day, and by the 6th day of life the baby should urinate pale yellow urine at least 6 times a day.

Biliary atresia may appear in a healthy-appearing infant at 3 to 6 weeks with jaundice and gradually acholic (pale) stools.

Benefits of Breastfeeding
1) Infants - maternal-child bonding, protection against some infections (e.g. otitis media, respiratory infections), SIDS and allergic reactions.
2) Maternal - decreased postpartum bleeding and more rapid uterine involution, lactational amenorrhea, earlier return to prepregnant weight, delayed resumption of ovulation with increased child spacing, improved bone remineralization postpartum, reduction in hip fractures in the postmenopausal period.
Other benefits: decreased cost, readily available.
newborn vit suppls
clipp
Nutritional Supplementation
- During first 6 mos, infants should not be given extra water, juice, or vitamin/mineral supplements. All vitamins except Vitamin K are in human milk.
- Fluoride - Breast- and bottle-fed infants both should receive fluoride supplements after 6 mos old if the water supply lacks fluoride (< 0.3 ppm).
- Vitamin D - Breastfed infants may need Vitamin D before 6 mos if the baby not exposed to adequate sunlight (at least 15 minutes per week).

caput vs cephalohematoma ?
clipp
Caput succedaneum: edematous swelling over the presenting portion of the scalp of an infant. It overlies the periosteum and therefore crosses suture lines, consists of serum, and would not cause hyperbilirubinemia.

Cephalohematoma: subperiosteal hemorrhage and thus will not extend across a suture line, and may contribute to hyperbilirubinemia.
barlow and ortolani
clipp
1) Barlow test - Examiner places thumb on the lesser trochanter and middle finger over greater trochanter. With the hips flexed to 90 degrees, the hip is brought into slight adduction and gentle downward pressure with the hand is applied to the hip. A normal hip will not dislocate, while a dislocatable hip will subtly move out of socket.
2) Ortolani Maneuver - Abduct the hip and push the femoral head anteriorly with your fingers over the greater trochanter. If dislocated, this maneuver will cause the femoral head to relocate with a "clunk." (With this maneuver, the baby makes an "O" -- Ortolani -- with its legs as its feet come together.)

cutaneous stigmata of occult spinal dysgraphism are present in 50-70% of patients w/ tethered cord.

* If your child was born with spina bifida (open spine) then the cord could become tethered because of the scar tissue that resulted from surgically closing the spine at birth. This scar tissue causes the cord to attach abnormally.
* The spinal cord can also become tethered with spina bifida occulta. when your child bends or stretches but when it is tethered, it is stretched, especially with those movements. This abnormal stretching puts tension on the cord that can cause permanent damage to the muscles and nerves that control the legs, feet, bowel and bladder.

In kid how might it present ?
Which has renal stones?
Which has rickets ?
Which is Fanconi anemia ?
Type 1 : DISTAL : can be for life. Has acidosis as defect in secreting Hyd ions. Has renal stones (hyperCaUria).

Type 2 : Proximal : Low resorb of BiCarb. Usually resolves. Part of other things: Fanconi. Can have rickets due to phosphate wasting.

Type 3: combo of 1 and 2.

Type 4: Mineralocorticoid def like low aldosterone (Addisons, CAH) or low renin (renal interstitial dz).

7 month old with this mouth ?
Why ?
baby bottle decay aka early childhood caries
- use cup at one
- no juice from bottle, use cup
- no nightime bottle / breast
- no flouride toothpaste until 2 or 3 unless dentist says so
When kid get upper GI endoscope ?
S/S GI ulcer : night pain better with food, dark stool, did vomit frank blood once.

Maybe not if vomiting 2 days due to hamburger and "streaks" of blood in emesis. SMALL Malory-Weiss tears from emesis are common and rarely lead to bad life threat bleeds. SO, if person stable and not bleeding, don't need to do a scope NOW in the ED. Watch and observe.
