scabies

cause: glomerular injury -> massive hypoalbuminemia, hyperlipidemia, edema;
repeated glomerulonephritis; autoimmune
s/s: weight gain, periorbital edema early in day-> ankle later, anorexia, pallor,
fatigue, oliguria, proteinuria (>2gm/day in urine), hyperlipidemia
tx: corticosteroids until urine is free from protein for 10-14d (use first!),
immunosuppressants - cytoxan (if corticosteroids dont work), loop diuretics, NO
water restriction
bed wetting 2x/wk for 3months; at least 5yrs
causes: sleep theory, functional bladder (small), nocturnal polyuria theory
tx: conditional therapy (alarm), need to be 7yrs; retention control training; waking
schedule; behavior modification therapy; drug therapy (tricyclic antidepressants,
anticholinergics)
etiology: nematode Enterobius vermicularis, Inhalation or ingestion of eggs from
contaminated hands
appearance: general irritability, restlessness, poor sleep, bed-wetting, distractibility,
short attention span, perianal dermatitis & pruritus
Management: Pyrantel Pamoate or Albendazole x 1, then again in 2 weeks BM will
be bright red.
, Treat family members
Prevention of reoccurrence
etiology: scabies mite, sarcoptes scabiei, mite burrows into stratum corner of
epidermis
appearance: maculopapular lesions in any skin fold, between fingers, inside
elbows, axilla, inguinal area, watch for discrete papule, burrows, or vesicles
management: apply scabicide (2oz for adults 1oz for kids), lidocaine cream,
ivermectin PO, tx al who have been in contact, wash & dry linens on hottest
setting, itching persists for 2-3 wks
