- Usually caused by the rotavirus
Vesicoureteral reflux: Cause
Give this one a try later!
- Primary: congenital abnormality at vesicoureteral junction
- Secondary: structure or functional problems such as neurogenic bladder,
bladder dysfunction, or bladder outlet dysfunction
,Abuse: Risk factors

stressors
- Caregiver abuse in childhood
- Young parents
- Limited knowledge in child development

UTI: Etiology
Give this one a try later!
- Alteration of defense mechanisms increases risk of UTI
- Female anatomy is predisposing factor
- Organisms usually introduced via ascending route from urethra from
urologic instrumentation, sex, or other
- E. coli, streptococci, staphylococcus saprophysticus
- Fungal and paristic pathogens
Tetralogy of Fallot: Patho, sx, tx
Give this one a try later!
, Patho:
-Pulmonary stenosis: blood flow from right ventricle is obstructed causing
decreased blood flow to lungs and amount of oxy blood
-VSD
-Overriding aorta: mix of poorly oxygenated blood travels through body
-RVH
Sx: tet spells->bend at knees or fetal position
Tx: prevent dehydration, blalock-taussig shunt, open heart surgery (VSD
closure, correct pulmonic stenosis)
Encephalocele: What it is, tx
Give this one a try later!
What: protrusion of brain and meninges through skull defect resulting from
failure of anterior portion of neural tube to close
Tx: preop and postop care; monitor sx of increased ICP and hC
Abuse: Long term effects

, 1. Impaired brain development: mental delay, learning disability
2. Physical disability: shake baby syndrome, blindness, feeding problem,
seizures
3. Poor school performance: truancy, discipline problems, low test scores
4. Substance abuse
5. Psychological problem: poor self esteem, suicidal behavior, depression
6. Criminality
7. Financial cost to society
