2. Nitrofurantoin Side effects: 3-9 days later:
lung injury/hypersensitivity pneumonitis - basilar crackles/opacities/pleural effusion
maculopapular rash
leukocytosis with eosinophilia
3. caput succedaneum: diffuse edema of the fetal scalp that crosses the suture
lines. reabsorbes within 1 to 3 days
4. Cephalohematoma: Swelling does NOT cross suture lines, caused by bleeding
from subperiosteal vessel rupture
5. Subgaleal hemorrhage: massive bleeding from subgaleal vein shearing that can
cross suture lines and move around, above periosteum in loose areolar tissue
-pallor, tachycardia
-risk for jaundice, severe blood loss

and egg shell calcifications, can rupture if >5 septations (percutaneous drainage
needed)
tx: albendazole +/- surgery if rupture
* cysts can also occur in lungs

not liver cysts

with megaloblastic anemia

metabolite acrolein in urine), bladder carcinoma, sterility, bone marrow suppression

drome

dyspnea from HF)
OR
EF<50%
13. Triggers of acute-angle closure glaucoma: decongestants (phenylephrine),
SSRIs/SNRIs/TCAs,
mydriatics (atropine, tropicamide), topiramate, sulfa drugs, anticoagulants, tamiflu,
nebulized albuterol + ipratropium,
NMJ blocking agents
14. Causes of sideroblastic anemia: alcohol, pyridoxine (B6) deficiency (sec-
ondary to isoniazid), lead poisoning

17. T2 hyperintensity + sensory and motor impairment at distinct level: trans-
verse myelitis
18. NPO alcoholic on antibiotics with bleeding from venipuncture sites: Vit K
deficiency
- NPO: lose nutritional source
- alcoholic liver disease: lose storage
- antibiotics: lose gut source

chest pain, hypertension
Neurological: seizures
Respiratory: dyspnea
Gastrointestinal: nausea/vomiting
Genitourinary: Severe uterine cramping, uterine rupture
Fetal Side Effects: Cardiovascular: bradycardia, ectopic rhythms
Neurological: intracranial hemorrhage
Respiratory: hypoxia, asphyxia
23. Neuroblastoma presenting symptoms: abdominal mass, periorbital ecchymo-
sis (from orbital mets), opsoclonus-myoclonus, spinal cord compression
24. Lichen Planus associations: Hep C, thiazides, ACE inhibitors
25. contraindicated in migraine with aura: estrogen-containing contraceptives d/t
increased stroke risk

worse when crying and laying on back, inspiratory stridor
27. Newborn jaundice (indirect bili) presenting within 1st week, signs of de-
hydration, >10% weight loss, continued meconium: Breast Feeding / Lactation
Failure Jaundice
- decreased bilirubin elimination
28. Newborn jaundice (indirect bili) presenting after 1st week and peaking at
2 weeks, no signs of dehydration: Breast Milk Jaundice
- B glucuronidase in breast milk deconjugates intestinal bilirubin
29. When to initiate exchange transfusion for hyperbilirubinemia: if Bili >25 or
symptoms (lethargic, hypotonia)
