MASTER RESOURCE
◉ Triple X Syndrome. Answer: Characterized by the presence of an
additional X chromosome in each of a female's cells. Although
females with this condition may be taller than average, this
chromosomal change typically causes no unusual physical features.
Most females have normal sexual development and are able to
conceive children.
Associated with an increased risk of learning disabilities and
delayed development of speech and language skills. Delayed
development of motor skills, hypotonia, and behavioral and
emotional difficulties are also possible, but these characteristics
vary widely among affected girls and women. Seizures or kidney
abnormalities occur in about 10 percent of affected females.
◉ XYY syndrome. Answer: A rare chromosomal disorder that affects
males. It is caused by the presence of an extra Y chromosome. Males
normally have one X and one Y chromosome. However, individuals
with this syndrome have one X and two Y chromosomes. Affected
individuals are usually very tall. Many experience severe acne during
adolescence. Additional symptoms may include learning disabilities
and behavioral problems such as impulsivity. Intelligence is usually
in the normal range, although IQ is on average 10-15 points lower
than siblings.
,◉ diet for cystic fibrosis patients. Answer: High calorie with added
salt
◉ A child has not received abx for a bacterial respiratory infection,
what would you treat them with?. Answer: Amoxicillin
◉ A 7-month old presents with 1-day cough, yellow sinus drainage
and a low grade temp, treatment options?. Answer: Tylenol and
monitor
◉ A 3 yr old presents with wheezing for past 3 months, what tests
would you order?. Answer: Spirometry
◉ RSV symptoms in 6 wk old infant. Answer: In very young infants
(less than 6 months old), the only symptoms of RSV infection may
be:
irritability
decreased activity
decreased appetite
apnea (pauses while breathing)
Fever may not always occur with RSV infections
,◉ Rhinovirus symptoms in 6 wk old infant. Answer: The first
indication of the common cold in a baby is often:
A congested or runny nose
Nasal discharge that may be clear at first but might thicken and turn
yellow or green
Other signs and symptoms of a common cold in a baby may include:
Fever
Sneezing
Coughing
Decreased appetite
Irritability
Difficulty sleeping
Trouble nursing or taking a bottle due to nasal congestion
◉ Streptococcus pneumonia in 6 wk old infant. Answer: Pneumonia
in infants aged three weeks to three months is most often bacterial;
Streptococcus pneumoniae is the most common pathogen
◉ Listeria in 6 wk old infant. Answer: Listeriosis is caused by an
infection with the bacterium Listeria monocytogenes . These
bacteria can be carried by many animals and birds, and they have
been found in soil, water, sewage, and animal feed. Listeriosis is
, considered a food-borne illness because most people are probably
infected after eating food contaminated with Listeria
monocytogenes
When a full-term baby becomes infected with Listeria during
childbirth, that situation is called late-onset disease. Commonly,
symptoms of late-onset listeriosis appear about two weeks after
birth. Babies with late-term disease typically have meningitis; yet
they have a better chance of surviving than those with early-onset
disease
Listeriosis is treated with the antibiotics ampicillin or
sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim
◉ Chlamydia trichomonas in 6 wk old infant. Answer: 5 to 30% of
infected neonates will develop pneumonia. Approximately half of
these infants will have a history of C. Trachomatis conjunctivitis.
The condition is generally recognized between 4 and 12 weeks of
age, although most infants are symptomatic as early as 8 weeks of
age.
Cough and nasal congestion without discharge are common,
although discharge can be thick.
Onset is insidious and characteristic features include a staccato
cough, tachypnea.
Rales is common upon auscultation, but wheezing is not.
The liver and spleen may be palpable secondary to hyperinflated
lungs.
The patient is usually afebrile, and does not appear particularly ill.
