Urinary Tract Infection In Children
Up to 7% of girls and 2% of boys will experience a urinary tract infection by age 6. Diagnosis requires a urine culture if there is high clinical suspicion based on symptoms like fever, cloudy urine, or a positive dipstick test. While imaging studies were once routinely recommended, evidence now shows they do not improve outcomes for uncomplicated infections. Oral antibiotics are as effective as intravenous therapy, and short courses of 2-5 days may be sufficient though optimal duration is unclear.
urinary tract infection;pediatric
UTI can affect 5-8% of children, especially girls under 1 year old. E. coli is the most common cause. Clinical features depend on the location of infection and can include fever, abdominal/back pain, vomiting, dysuria, and frequency. Diagnosis involves a urine culture and analysis. Treatment differs based on age, severity of symptoms, and complications. Recurrent UTIs and high-grade vesicoureteral reflux can increase risk of renal scarring and long-term kidney damage if not properly managed. Preventing constipation, proper hygiene, and sometimes long-term antibiotic prophylaxis can help reduce recurrences.
vesicourethral reflux
Vesicoureteral reflux is a condition where urine flows backward from the bladder into the ureters and kidneys. It is most common in young children and can be caused by defects in the valve between the ureter and bladder. Left untreated, it increases the risk of urinary tract infections. Treatment involves antibiotics to prevent infections as well as procedures to correct the valve defect surgically or using gel injections. Ongoing monitoring is also needed to ensure no long-term kidney damage occurs.

Pediatrics 5th year, 10th lecture/part one (Dr. Adnan)
UTI is caused mainly by E. coli bacteria entering the urinary tract and multiplying. Symptoms vary with age but can include fever, vomiting, and jaundice in infants or frequent urination and abdominal pain in older children. Diagnosis requires a urine culture showing over 100,000 bacteria per ml. Treatment involves antibiotics effective against E. coli, and follow up cultures to ensure infection clearance and detect recurrences requiring long term preventative antibiotics. Imaging may be needed to check for issues like reflux or obstruction predisposing to UTIs.
Urinary tract-infections-children
This document discusses urinary tract infections (UTIs) in children. It notes that UTIs are common in childhood and can lead to renal scarring if not treated properly. The most common cause is E. coli bacteria ascending from the urethra. Younger children and uncircumcised boys are most at risk. Evaluation involves urinalysis, urine culture, and imaging studies to identify abnormalities. Treatment focuses on antibiotics and preventing recurrence through follow up imaging and prophylaxis in high risk cases to avoid long term complications like renal scarring and hypertension.
Urinary Tract Infection in Children
1. Urinary tract infections are caused by bacterial infections anywhere along the urinary tract. Boys under 1 year and girls under 4 years have the highest risk. Risk factors include lack of circumcision in boys, vesicoureteral reflux, constipation, and bladder/bowel dysfunction.
2. Symptoms vary by age but can include fever, abdominal pain, vomiting, and poor feeding. Diagnosis involves urinalysis, urine culture, and imaging tests like ultrasound and voiding cystourethrogram. Treatment is with oral or intravenous antibiotics depending on severity.

This document discusses urinary tract infections (UTIs) in children. It notes that UTIs are common in childhood and can lead to renal scarring if not treated properly. Escherichia coli is the most common cause of UTIs in children. The diagnosis of a UTI requires a positive urine culture. Treatment involves antibiotics, with younger or more severely infected children needing hospitalization. Recurrent UTIs may indicate an underlying condition like vesicoureteral reflux.
Vesicoureteral reflux period 4
Vesicoureteral reflux is an abnormal flow of urine from the bladder back up the ureters into the kidneys. It can develop as primary reflux, caused by a birth defect in the valve between the bladder and ureter, or secondary reflux caused by a blockage in the urinary system. Risk factors include family history, lighter skin color, and female sex. While most children outgrow reflux by age 5, treatment with antibiotics may be needed to prevent urinary tract infections from reaching the kidneys.

4. Management focuses on antibiotics to prevent infections while allowing for spontaneous resolution, which is more likely for lower grades of
Vesicoureteral reflux period 1
Vesicoureteral reflux is a physical defect where urine flows back from the bladder to the ureters and kidneys. It can be either primary, where the child is born with an undeveloped ureter, or secondary, caused by a blockage that increases urinary pressure. Symptoms include urinary tract infections. Left untreated, bacteria from infections can scar the kidneys, potentially leading to issues like high blood pressure or kidney failure. Treatment options include long-term antibiotics, surgery, or deflux liquid to prevent infections and scarring.
VUR
This document summarizes the diagnosis and management of vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) in children. It discusses that VUR occurs in 1-3% of children and is associated with 7-17% of childhood end-stage renal disease cases. The standard of care used to be antibiotic prophylaxis for any child with VUR, but it is now unclear which children benefit from prophylaxis or surgical intervention, as many cases are self-limiting. Prospective studies are needed to identify risk factors for pyelonephritis and scarring without prophylaxis to allow for more individualized treatment plans.

Vesicoureteral reflux ruwida
This document discusses vesicoureteral reflux (VUR), which is the retrograde flow of urine from the bladder into the upper urinary tract. Normally, reflux is prevented by low bladder pressure, efficient ureteric peristalsis, and the ability of the vesicoureteric junction to occlude during bladder contraction. Primary VUR is caused by an abnormally short intramural ureter length, while secondary VUR can be caused by procedures like TURP, or functional issues like detrusor instability. VUR predisposes individuals to recurrent urinary tract infections and renal scarring. Investigations include ultrasound, cystography, MCUG and IVU
Pediatric urinary tract infection
Pediatric urinary tract infections (UTIs) are common in children, especially girls under the age of 1. Left untreated, UTIs can cause renal scarring and long-term kidney damage. Diagnosis involves urine tests to check for white blood cells and bacteria. Treatment depends on symptoms and severity but often involves antibiotics and hydration. Follow up is important to monitor for recurrent UTIs and issues like vesicoureteral reflux, as both increase risk of permanent kidney damage if not addressed.

It is more common in girls than boys, especially around the time of toilet training. The most common causative organism is E. coli. Diagnosis involves urine culture and microscopy showing bacteria and white blood cells. Treatment consists of a course of oral antibiotics. For recurrent UTIs or those indicating renal involvement, further imaging may be needed to identify issues like vesicoureteral reflux that require prophylactic treatment or surgery. Complications can include recurrent infections, renal scarring, hypertension, and even end stage renal failure if not adequately managed.
urinary tract infection
The document discusses urinary tract infections (UTIs). It notes that UTIs can affect people of all ages but are more common in females, especially younger girls. The main causes are E. coli and other bacterial infections that enter the urinary tract. Symptoms vary depending on whether the infection involves the bladder (cystitis) or kidneys (pyelonephritis). Risk factors, diagnosis through urinalysis and culture, treatment with antibiotics or conservatively, and potential long-term issues like renal scarring are covered.

It begins by outlining the objectives of describing signs and symptoms, defining treatment of asymptomatic bacteriuria, listing common bacteria and antibiotics, and outlining investigation and treatment of cystitis and pyelonephritis. It then discusses who is most at risk for UTIs, including women, those with voiding abnormalities, and those with instrumentation of the urinary tract. The document outlines signs, symptoms, investigations including urinalysis and culture, differential diagnoses, and treatment approaches including antibiotics and hospitalization for various types of UTIs like cystitis, pyelonephritis, and recurrent or complicated infections.
GU Infections
This document discusses infectious diseases of the genitourinary tract, including definitions of irritative voiding symptoms and objectives for discussing urinary tract infections, prostatitis, epididymitis, and pyelonephritis. It covers etiology, epidemiology, risk factors, signs and symptoms, diagnostic workup, and treatment of these conditions. Specific populations like pregnant women, children, and differences between males and females are addressed.
Urinary tract infection in children
An infant presented with fever, vomiting, diarrhea and passing small amounts of urine daily for many days. Examination showed the infant was dehydrated and sick-looking. Urine examination showed many pus cells indicating a urinary tract infection (UTI). UTIs are caused mainly by E. coli and occur more commonly in girls and uncircumcised boys. Symptoms of UTI in infants can include fever, poor feeding and jaundice. Treatment involves antibiotics for a period of time depending on the severity and location of the infection. Imaging may be required depending on factors like previous infections or abnormalities found on examination.
Investigation and treatment of Urinary tract infection in children
- Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are common in children and can lead to serious complications if left untreated. The two main types are pyelonephritis, which involves the kidneys, and cystitis, which involves the bladder.
- Symptoms vary with age but may include fever, abdominal pain, vomiting, and abnormal urine odor or color. Physical exams can reveal costovertebral angle tenderness or abdominal tenderness.
- Diagnosis involves urinalysis, urine culture, and imaging studies like ultrasound or voiding cystourethrogram to check for vesicoureteral reflux or other abnormalities.
- Escherichia coli is the most common cause. Treatment depends
PEDI GU REVIEW lower tract i
This document provides an overview of congenital disorders of the lower urinary tract, with a focus on vesicoureteral reflux (VUR). It discusses the anatomy and causes of VUR, risk factors for urinary tract infections, and non-surgical management approaches like antibiotic prophylaxis, bladder training, and treatment of voiding dysfunction. Expectant management may be appropriate for some cases, with periodic screening and assessment of reflux and kidney health over time.
Cystitis
Cystitis, or a urinary tract infection, is very common, affecting 1-3% of all GP consultations and up to 50% of women at some point in their lives. Symptoms include dysuria, frequency, nocturia, and urgency. The most common cause is a bacterial infection such as E. coli, though some women experience symptoms without an infection. Treatment involves drinking fluids, antibiotics like trimethoprim, and ensuring follow up care for at-risk groups to prevent complications like pyelonephritis.
Infantile Diarrhea
1. Diarrhea is a common disease in childhood that can be caused by infections, non-infectious factors, or a combination of both. Infectious causes include viruses like rotavirus and bacteria like E. coli, while non-infectious causes include improper diet, weather factors, and feeding issues.
2. The pathogenesis of infectious diarrhea involves mechanisms like enterotoxins produced by bacteria that increase intestinal fluid secretion, or viruses and bacteria that directly invade and damage the intestinal mucosa. This leads to reduced nutrient absorption and an osmotic diarrhea.
3. Clinical manifestations of diarrhea range from mild cases involving changes in stool frequency and consistency, to more severe cases accompanied by dehydration

07 capnography trends in procedural sedation
1) Procedural sedation is used for many medical procedures and aims to provide analgesia, amnesia, and reduce anxiety while maintaining airway reflexes and spontaneous breathing.
2) While pulse oximetry became standard in the 1980s, capnography has emerged as the new gold standard for monitoring procedural sedation as it can detect respiratory issues that oximetry may miss.
3) Overlake Hospital implemented capnography monitoring for all procedural sedations after reviewing evidence and determining it was more effective for patient safety than relying on respiratory therapists to continuously monitor each procedure.
The evolution of pediatric mechanical ventilators
1. Mechanical ventilators have evolved from simple analog machines to sophisticated microprocessor-controlled devices with advanced modes of ventilation.
2. Early ventilators were open-loop controlled while modern ventilators use various closed-loop and dual-loop control schemes to better match ventilation to patient needs.
3. The newest generations of ventilators use proportional assist, automatic tube compensation, adaptive support ventilation, and other advanced modes that aim to provide more patient-synchronized support and facilitate weaning. However, further research is still needed to fully understand the outcomes of these newer ventilation strategies.
20 patient monitoring
The document discusses various methods of patient monitoring during anesthesia, including their purposes, advantages, and limitations. It covers monitoring vital signs, standards for basic anesthesia monitoring according to the ASA, techniques like non-invasive blood pressure monitoring, ECG, pulse oximetry, capnography, and invasive arterial line monitoring. Key aspects emphasized are integrating multiple monitoring methods to evaluate oxygenation, ventilation, and circulation.
19 introduction of volumetric capnography
The document discusses the introduction and clinical applications of volumetric capnography (VCO2) at one hospital. It provides an agenda for the topics covered, which include VCO2 management, clinical applications, and data from the University of Tennessee Medical Center's experience using VCO2. Key applications discussed are ventilation management, monitoring changes in perfusion, optimization of positive end-expiratory pressure, and assisting with ventilator weaning trials. The University of Tennessee Medical Center saw decreases in length of mechanical ventilation, ventilator days, and re-intubation rates after implementing VCO2 monitoring.
18 basics of pediatric airway anatomy, physiology and management
The document provides an overview of pediatric airway anatomy, physiology, and management. It discusses the differences between pediatric and adult airways, including a more rostral larynx, relatively larger tongue, angled vocal cords, differently shaped epiglottis, and funneled larynx in children. It also reviews normal airway management techniques like bag-mask ventilation and various airway devices, as well as complications from intubation. The goal is to protect, adequately ventilate, and oxygenate the pediatric airway.
17 capnography part4 non-intubated
The document discusses the use of capnography for non-intubated patients experiencing trouble breathing. It describes how capnography can help identify and monitor conditions like bronchospasm from asthma or COPD by examining patterns in exhaled carbon dioxide levels. Specific capnographic signatures are presented for different respiratory conditions including asthma attacks, COPD exacerbations, congestive heart failure, and hypoventilation states. Case studies demonstrate how capnography can track changes in a patient's condition before and after treatment.
16 capnography part3 intubated
Capnography can be used to summarize 3 key applications for intubated patients:
1) It can confirm correct endotracheal tube placement and detect displacement. Characteristic waveforms indicate proper vs displaced placement.
2) During CPR, it can assess the effectiveness of chest compressions by correlating end-tidal CO2 levels with cardiac output and blood flow.
3) It provides an early indicator of return of spontaneous circulation through a rapid rise in CO2 levels, earlier than other signs like pulse or blood pressure. It also aids the decision to cease resuscitation efforts based on CO2 levels.
15 capnography part2 introduction
Capnography measures exhaled carbon dioxide (CO2) to provide real-time monitoring of ventilation, unlike pulse oximetry which monitors oxygen saturation in the blood and is slower to detect changes. A normal capnographic waveform has four phases: 1) dead space, 2) ascending, 3) alveolar plateau, and 4) descending. The end-tidal CO2 value reflects the highest CO2 concentration in exhaled air and typically ranges from 35-45mmHg. Capnography can immediately detect conditions that impact ventilation such as hypoventilation, hyperventilation, and bronchospasm based on changes to the waveform shape, frequency, and CO2 values.
14 capnography part1 overview
This document provides an overview of capnography, which is a technology that objectively measures ventilation by detecting exhaled carbon dioxide. It can be used for both intubated and non-intubated patients to continuously monitor ventilation and the patient's ABCs. The document reviews the history of capnography, from its initial use in operating rooms to new portable technologies suitable for emergency medical services. It also outlines the clinical applications of capnography such as verifying endotracheal tube placement and monitoring treatment effectiveness.
13 icu monitoring standards and capnography
Dr. Ajmal Eusuf discusses the importance and benefits of capnography monitoring in the ICU. Capnography can be used to confirm proper endotracheal tube placement, monitor ventilation, and detect various respiratory issues. While capnography is standard practice in operating rooms and recommended by guidelines, only about half of UK ICUs currently use it as a mandatory monitoring tool. Adopting capnography as routine bedside monitoring in the ICU would help compliance with protocols and better patient care, especially for critically ill patients who are sicker than those in operating rooms.
12 mainstream sidestream capnpgraphy
The document discusses two options for capnography monitoring from ZOLL - the CAPNOSTAT 3 mainstream CO2 sensor and the LoFlo sidestream CO2 module. It provides details on the benefits of each, such as the CAPNOSTAT sensor's accuracy and resistance to contaminants, and the LoFlo module's interchangeability and low 50ml/min sampling rate. The document emphasizes that both provide reliable, accurate CO2 monitoring and waveforms for assessing patient ventilation.

Novas diretrizes da OMS para os cuidados perinatais de mais qualidade
Novas diretrizes da OMS para os cuidados perinatais de mais qualidadeProf. Marcus Renato de Carvalho
Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

ABDOMINAL TRAUMA in pediatrics part one.
Abdominal trauma in pediatrics refers to injuries or damage to the abdominal organs in children. It can occur due to various causes such as falls, motor vehicle accidents, sports-related injuries, and physical abuse. Children are more vulnerable to abdominal trauma due to their unique anatomical and physiological characteristics. Signs and symptoms include abdominal pain, tenderness, distension, vomiting, and signs of shock. Diagnosis involves physical examination, imaging studies, and laboratory tests. Management depends on the severity and may involve conservative treatment or surgical intervention. Prevention is crucial in reducing the incidence of abdominal trauma in children.

Common Ut Concerns In Children
- 1. COMMON URINARY TRACT CONCERNS IN CHILDREN Waldo C. Feng M.D.,Ph.D. Children’s Urology Associates Las Vegas, Nevada
- 4. UTI Incidence Kunin, 1998
- 19. UTI Management Controversy Looms
- 45. THE END?
Editor's Notes
- Probably one of the most controversial topics among urologist. Who to treat and how to treat.
- This is the effect of foreskin. Children are beginning to potty-train- dysfunctional voiding.
- Unlike adults, we have to more perceptive about symptoms. Do not present with dysuria, supra pubic pain. Hematuria on dipstick. Children present diferently at different ages.
- UTI is a generic term. We try to localize the infection to determine our course of investigation with imaging, and treatment. Bladder infections are low grade temperature, goes down with tynelol.
- High grade temperature.
- Other routes hematogenous, lymphatic but the most common is ascending route. Why girls are more at risk than boys,
- E. Coli most common organism. Over 150 strains, fewer than 10 account for the majority of the cases. It relates to the virulence factor. 91% E.coli causing pyelo have the fimbriae.
- Breast feeding have some protective effect. Most important easiest to perform is good voiding habits. Do not ask the child when to void, put on a schedule. Fast flowing river clear versus a stagnant pool. Doubling time every 40 minutes.
- So who are at risk for UTI’s. Reflux, PUV, duplicated ureters. Immunocompromise, neurogenic bladder.
- Look for some clues in the history and physical.
- Most common are gram negative enteric bacteria.
- The goals of treatment is two fold. Certainly early detection, imaging have dramatically reduced the long-term sequelae.
- Widespread use of DMSA technetium 99 dimercaptosuccinic acid with febrile uti’s up to 50% 2 to 2 years later show scarring. Next slide an example of DMSA.
- Any photopenic areas are scarred, non functioning nephrons. What are the chances of renal scarring?
- What to look on a office dipstick since few places do direct microscopic analysis.
- Bagged is good a ruling out a UTI, not useful in documenting one. SP is the gold standard.
- Suggest you have an infection.
- Once we have made a diagnosis of UTI-
