Croup
IG: Viral infection of the upper airway with a barking cough and often stridor, low grade
fever developed over 2-5 days, rhinorrhea, marked intercostal retractions. X-ray shows
pencil point of the upper airway.
DM: give racemic epi (if you have to give more than 1 be worried) and corticosteroids
Decadron (dexamethasone), along w/ cool aerosol mist. If no improvement with epi
suction and intubate. make sure to listen for a leak around the cuff before you extubate.
neonatal resuscitation
wipe baby off, put under radiant warmer, if grunting & HR 80 Initiate CPAP or neopuff if
HR decreases to 60 or less initiate compressions and 100% FiO2
-NRP: 1 rescuer 30:2
2 rescuer 15:2
pulmonary edema
IG: sudden onset with orthopnea, pink frothy secretions, enlarged heart, ST depress,
bilateral fluffy infiltrates on x ray.
,DM: give hyperinflation therapy, put in fowler's position. Thoracentesis for infiltrate and
fluid. Medication: Lasix, morphine, and digitalis.
Myocardial Ischemia/infarction
IG: chest pain and nausea, substernal squeezing pain in left shoulder, shows elevated
ST segment, ST depression T wave inversion on EKG.
IG: Troponin 0.78 (elevated) (> 0.1), CK shows recent MI, pedal edema, character of
chest pain, peripheral pulses, CBC, electrolytes, ECG, if intubated evaluate CXR for
tube placement, elevation in cardiac enzymes
DM: give oxygen for hypoxemia 2L/M BP 80/40 give dopamine, digoxin, Levophed
(inotropic drug) to increase BP. Use Verapamil if BP is high . Sublingual nitroglycerin,
O2, aspirin, and morphine. (OMAN)
ultrasound to determine if mitral valve is blocked
PVC's ---> lidocaine or amiodarone
Guillian-Barre
IG: pt. comes in with acute weakness in legs, onset of difficulty walking, reduced lower
extremity strength, recent infection
Test: Lumbar puncture if not diagnosed. positive if increase in protein within cerebral
spinal fluid
(Tx: plasmapheresis)
, IG: ability to swallow, cough effort, sensory and motor function, level of consciousness,
and deep tendon reflexes.
--> closely monitor respiratory muscle strength
(VC,VT, MIP) VC < 1.0 intubate, MIP < -60- -70
DM: continue to monitor MIP and VC if not intubated, refer to physical therapy for
evaluation, pressure stockings
Cystic Fibrosis
IG: has elevated hemoglobin and hematocrit sweat chloride to diagnose must be above
60(usually already diagnosed so wont need to do), tenacious yellow-green sputum
(infection), decreased BS, coarse crackles,
IG: Spirometry, sputum culture & sensitivity for infection, 6MWT, CXR (bronchiectasis
give antibiotics- ciprofloxacin)
DM: oral ciprofloxacin (antibiotic), increase frequency of airway clearance therapy.
hemoptysis present give epinephrine
ivacafort, cayston is medication for CF first being diagnosed
DM: Home care management: bronchodilator, pulmozyme, HFCWO, tobramycin,
pancreatic enzymes, For C.F. adult at college give DPI TOBI instead of Nebulizer.
