Preemie Probs
This is the name of the liquid that helps baby's alveoli open up for gas exchange.
What is surfactant?
In severe Meconium Aspiration Syndrome, this is a possible complication. (Name at least one of the two mentioned in the lecture)
What is Persistent Pulmonary Hypertension and Pneumothorax?
Persistent Pulmonary Hypertension is a concern because it causes shunting of blood from (right or left) to (right or left).
Right to Left
This is a poor prognostic factor for Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia.
What is liver herniation?
This form of conjunctivitis typically occurs between 3 and 5 days after birth.
What is Gonococcal Conjunctivits?
Between these weeks gestation, it is appropriate to give steroids if delivery is expected within 7 days.
What are 23 and 34? (Will accept 22 to 33.6 also)
In patients requiring intubation, this is how the diagnosis of MAS is confirmed.
What is visualizing the presence of meconium in the trachea?
In a developing fetus, the right and left sides of the heart work in this way, a term used to describe that the vasculature that not work in series.
What is parallel?
This is the range of the survival rate of Congenital Diaphragmatic Herniation according to my presentation (will accept either number +/- 5 percent).
What is 45-74 percent.
A macrolide is the treatment of choice for this pain in the eye.
What is Chlamydial Conjunctivits?
Mutations in the genes encoding these proteins may cause surfactant deficiency and/or dysfunction, and hereditary respiratory failure in infants born at term. (Name one)
What is SP-B and SP-C and the adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-binding cassette transporter A3 (ABCA3)?
According to the lecture, hemoglobin should be maintained at this level or higher when managing a patient with MAS.
What is 15g/L?
Shunting may occur through either or both of these pathways. (Name both)
This is an investigational therapy that obstructs the normal egress of lung fluid during pulmonary development, thereby increasing lung fluid and transpulmonic pressure
What is fetal endoscopic tracheal occlusion (FETO)?
This conjunctivitis usually presents within the first 24 hours of life.
What is chemical conjunctivitis?
This is the most common cause of surfactant deficiency.
What is premature delivery?
This is the inhaled agent mentioned in the lecture that causes vasodilation to treat MAS or PPHN.
What is Nitric Oxide?
This is the most common cause of Persistent Pulmonary Hypertension.
What is MAS?
Fetal endoscopic tracheal occlusion (FETO) is successful this percent of the time.
What is 50 percent?
This is the drug of choice and its delivery for the treatment of Gonococcal conjunctivits.
What is IM or IV Ceftriaxone or Cefotaxime.
True or False: Surfactant increases the alveolar surface tension facilitating alveolar expansion and reducing the likelihood of alveolar collapse atelectasis.
False, it decreases alveolar surface tension.
This is one of the two major risk factors for MAS.
What is postmaturity or small for gestational age?
The definitive diagnosis of PPHN is made by this.
What is echocardiography?
The prenatal assessment of patients with suspected CDH should include this. (Identify at least one)
What is a detailed fetal anatomic survey, fetal chromosomal microarray, or ultrafast fetal magnetic resonance imaging
This is a more rare form of neonatal conjunctivitis that was not mentioned in today's lecture and is often part of SEM disease (skin, eyes, mouth).
What is HSV conjunctivitis?
