| 10 organisms most commonly causing (suspected) bacterial infection in neonates. (bacteremia, meningitis, UTI & pneumonia) | GEL SHE VRCC: GAS, E. Coli, Listeria Monocytogenes, Staph aureus, Enterococcus species, Herpes Simplex, Varicella zoster, RSV, candida, CMV |
| 14 organisms that cause systemic infections most commonly associated with FEVER OF UNKNOWN ORIGIN in children | SSATT I @ HMV CCCRL: Salmonella, Syphillis, Atypical prolonged common viral disease, Tuberculosis, Toxoplasmosis, Infectious mononucleosus, Histoplasmosis, malaria, viral hepatitis, CMV, Coccidiodomycosis, Rickettsial disease, Lyme. |
| Definition of DIC | alteration of normal coagulation mechanism triggered by tissue injury such as infection, trauma, malignancy, etc. |
| Symptoms of DIC | Bleeding, thrombosis, tissue ischemia. Respiratory failure, abdominal, renal failure, seizures. |
| Diagnosis of DIC | Co-agulation studies. Especially D-dimer are diagnositic. |
| Management of DIC | Remove cause/ event. Manage shock, respiratory compromise, acidosis. Vit K for clotting. |
| description of Adenovirus | Associated with many system based processes: RESP (common cold, pharyngitis, tonsillitis, bronchiolitis +) OCULAR (keratoconjuctivitis), GI, SKIN (SJS), GU, CARDIAC (myocarditis or pericarditis, NEURO (meningitis). Management is system based. |
| Description/ symptoms CMV | herpes family. primary & latent reactivated infection (immunocompromised) multi system: pna, myocarditis, pericarditis, uveitis, congenital infection associated with deafness. Tx imm comp pt 2-3 wk with anti viral otherwise supportive care |
| Description / symptoms EBV | herpes family. Can be latent or active. Causes mono. Prodrome of fever, sore throat, malaise, fatigue. Cervical LAD, |
| Diagnosis & management of EBV | monospot or mono tesr or viral antigen. Supportive care. Spleen gaurd & spleen caution if HSM. |
| What are the 'hallmark" symptoms that would warrant testing for pertussis in an infant | lymphocytosis with classic cough. PCR for fast results, Culture for 100% specificity. |
| Teen with fever, malaise ST. 3+ tonsils with exudate. anterior and posterior cervical LAD & splenomegaly. What labs will you order | CBC with diff, EBV specific IgG & IgM. Typically leukocytosis with 60%> lymphocytosis,& 50% pt with mild thrombocytopenia. |
| Typical symptoms of CMV | pneumonitis, hepatomegaly, hepatitis & rashes |
| Which is the MOST characteristic finding in a child with a retropharyngeal abscess (RPA)? | limited neck mobility (NOT hyperextension of the neck, drooling, stridor). Other findings: neck mass, asymmetric bulge of oropharynx, fever, sore throat, decreased oral intake and drooling. Stridor and respiratory distress are found much less frequently. |
| Symptoms of hepatitis | asymptomatic or jaundice, palmar erythema, joint inflammation, distended abdomen, peripheral edema, exxhymosis, petechiae, altered LOC, liver tenderness on palpation. |
| Diagnostics/Labs of hepatitis | LFT's, CPK, Coag, CBC with platelet function specific hepatitis antigen abdominal ultrasound. |
| Diagnostics/Labs of enterovirus | cell culture isolation, PCR. |
| Presentation and diagnostics of herpes simplex | Gingivostomatitis, genital herpes. Most concerning system based illness is encephalitis, can be congenitally acquired. Diagnosis: cell culture, antibody detection. |
| Management of HSV | preventative tx with antiviral agents. Acyclovir etc. |
| What disease does parvo B19 cause to school age children and what condition if transmitted perinatally? | fifth disease in school aged children. Presents with fever, arthralgias, rash. Perinatal transmission = hydrops fetalis. |
| Management of hepatitis | based on thype and symptoms, consult GI, hepatologist, |
| What is full sepsis work up of a neonate? | <28 days (up to 2 mth) with rectal temp of >38C : CBC with diff, UA cathed, blood cx, LP, cxray, if UR symptoms. Manage ABC's, treat 48-72hr. |
| most probable conditions in a neonate <28 days (up to 2 mth) with rectal temp of >38C | UTI or occult bacteremia |
| most common organisms causing suspected bacterial infection in NN inc meningitis, UTI & pna (10) | GEL SHE CCVR (car) GAS, E Coli, Listeria, Staph aureus, Enterococcus species, Herpes simplex, varicella, RSV, candida, CMV. |
| Organisms responsible for systemic infections most commonly associated with fever of unknown origin in children (14) | salmonella, tuberculsosis, rickettsial, lyme, Cat scratch, histo, toxo,coccidioidomycosis, Malaria, Hepatitis, CMV, mono, syphillis, atypical prolonged common viral dx. |
| who has highest risk for occult bacteremia? A. 1 mth old toxic appear fever of 102°FB. 2 mth old, 3 days post imm fever to 101.4°F C. 3 mth resp congestion, wheezing 102.4°F D. 6 mth old 103°F, whose sibs recently had diarrhea | A High risk children inc infants < 1MTH & B/T 1&3 mth, appear toxic & have no other symptoms to suggest illness. As infants age, fever is less of a concern, especially in the presence of other symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea, cough or congestion. |

| Hx of RMSF | Incubation 2-8 days following tick bite. Symptoms, gradual/abrupt >38.8, h/a, rash by d3, toxicity, myalgia, mental confusion, photophobia, HSM. RASH: starts wrists & ankles, spreads-> palms & soles. |
| RMSF rash | RASH: starts on wrists & ankles, spreads to palms & soles. Blanching maculopapular -> petechial or purpuric 50%. APPEARS D3-6. |
| RMSF abx | doxycycline |
| Lyme dx | ticks, sprichette, May-oct Rash does not expand over days Patients complain of fever, myalgias, arthralgias, malaise and headache Aseptic meningitis may develop at this stage 7th nerve palsy common (Bell’s palsy) |
| Diagnostics of Lymes | CBC with diff ESR C3 and C4 ANA Hematuria and proteinuria Serology is the standard of diagnosis in later stages of the disease |
