Pediatric GI problems
Abdominal pain in children
DDx: Acute abdominal pain
Inflammatory:
• Abdominal infection: appendicitis, gastroenteritis, UTI, mesenteric adenitis (post URTI), mumps pancreatitis, hepatitis.
• Lower lobe pneumonia.
• Autoimmune: IBD, HSP, DKA.
Anatomical:
• GI obstruction, constipation.
• Meckel's complication e.g. obstruction, inflammation. However, Meckel's is usually asymptomatic.
• Renal and genitourinary: hydronephrosis, menstruation.
• Compressed anatomy: strangulated inguinal hernia, testis torsion.
Acute abdominal pain in children often has no specific cause ('non-specific abdominal pain'), and resolves in 24h.

Disorders that affect the digestive (gastrointestinal) system are called digestive disorders. Some disorders simultaneously affect several parts of the digestive system. The digestive system is responsible for breaking down food we eat into smaller components so that nutrients can be easily absorbed by the body and the waste discarded.
Several body parts, including the mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, and anus, make up the digestive (gastrointestinal) tract. The digestive process begins when food enters .

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2. Objective
At the end of this presentation the students will
be able to:
• Discuss about ingestion problems and structural
defects.
• Describe pyloric stenosis , biliary atresia , liver
abscess , amoebiasis and necrotizing enterocolitis.
• Enlist causes, signs and symptoms of the above
disorders
• Discuss nursing care approach for the patient with
above conditions.
3.
4. Cleft lip
It is due to the failure of fusion of the maxillary and
medial nasal processes .
Cleft lip is formed in the top of the lip as either a
small gap or an indentation in the lip (partial or
incomplete cleft) or it continues into the nose
(complete cleft).
Cleft lip can be unilateral or bilateral
5.
6. Cleft palate
It is a condition in which the two plates of the
skull that form the hard palate (roof of the
mouth) are not completely joined.
Children with these structural disorders may have
associated dental malformations, speech
problems, and frequent otitis media.
7. Cleft lip and palate
Most common craniofacial anomaly.
Males to female ratio is 3 : 1.
Higher in Asians.
Familial history.
Often diagnosed during pregnancy by ultrasound.
8. Cleft lip/palate repair
Labioplasty is used to close the separation and
rebuild the cleft lip/palate.
The surgeon makes incisions on both sides of the
cleft and repositions the tissue and muscles. The
repair is then stitched closed.
9. Nursing diagnosis
Risk for Aspiration (Breast Milk, Formula, or
Mucus) related to anatomic defect.
Altered Nutrition less than body requirements
related to the infant’s inability to ingest nutrients,
Risk for Infection related to location of surgical
procedure.
Knowledge Deficit (Parent) related to lack of
exposure and unfamiliarity with resources.
10. Nursing intervention
Assess fluid and calorie intake daily.
Assess weight daily (same scale, same time, with
infant completely undressed.
Observe for any respiratory Impairment.
Keep the infant well medicated for pain in initial
postoperative period.
Have parents hold and comfort the infant.
11. Ankyloglossia
Ankyloglossia or tongue tie, is a congenital oral
anomaly which may decrease mobility of the
tongue tip and is caused by an unusually short,
thick lingual frenulum, a membrane connecting
the underside of the tongue to the floor of the
mouth.
12.
13. Clinical manifestation
Abnormally short frenulum.
Difficulty lifting the tongue to the upper dental
alveolus.
Inability to protrude the tongue more than 1 to 2
mm past the lower central incisors.
Impaired side-to-side movement of the tongue.
Notched or heart shape of the tongue when it is
protruded.
14. Management of ankyloglossia
Ankyloglossia (tongue tie) is repaired by surgery
in the form of frenectomy.
This may be done by laser.
15. Tracheo-esophageal fistula
Tracheo-esophageal fistula or TEF, is an abnormal
connection between the trachea and the
oesophagus.
Normally, the trachea and oesophagus are not
connected. In TEF, air can pass from the trachea
into the stomach or food can pass from the
oesophagus into the lungs.
This may lead to breathing or swallowing
problems, which can be serious or life-threatening.
16.
17. Clinical manifestation
Excessive drooling / frothy mucus.
Inability to pass NG tube.
Choking and cyanosis with feeding.
High risk for aspiration of HCl from stomach
causing a chemical pneumonia.
18. Pre-surgery care
NPO (nothing per oral).
Head of bed is elevated.
Continuous suction.
G-tube to decompress stomach.
19. Surgical management
Surgery is needed to close or remove the part with
the fistula.
The oesophagus is reconnected to make it a
continuous tube that is separate from the trachea
In some cases, a piece of tissue from the large
intestine is used to join the parts.
20. Post operative care
Respiratory support
Gastric decompression
Gentle suctioning
Antibiotics
21. Pyloric stenosis
Pyloric stenosis is a condition caused by an
enlarged pylorus.
The pylorus is a muscle that opens and closes to
allow food to pass through the stomach into the
intestine.
When this muscle becomes enlarged, feedings are
blocked from emptying out of the stomach. The
retained feedings cause the infant to vomit
22. Cont…
Most common cause of gastric outlet obstruction in
infants.
1 in 500
More common in males
3 weeks to 2 months of age
Vomiting becomes projectile
23.
24. Clinical manifestation
Projectile vomiting
Visible peristaltic waves
Olive shape mass in the upper abdomen to right of
the midline.
Electrolyte imbalance
26. Surgical management
Pyloric stenosis does not get better by itself and
must be corrected with an operation.
The operation is called a "pyloromyotomy" where
the surgeon cuts through the muscle fibers of
enlarged pyloric muscle in order to widen the
opening into the intestine.
27. Diarrhea
Definition: Increase in the stool weight to greater
then 250g per day accompanied by increased
frequency and liquidity of stool is called diarrhea.
OR
It is irregular passage of watery stool from the
body.
30. Acute diarrhea.
Diarrhea lasting less then two weeks is called acute
diarrhea. It has two subtypes.
1) Inflammatory or bloody diarrhea.
2) Non inflammatory diarrhea.
31. Inflammatory diarrhea.
Inflammatory or bloody diarrhea suggests
involvement of large intestine by invasive bacteria
or parasites or toxins.
Clinically patient experience lot of difficulties and
problems regarding frequent bloody small
volumes stools ,fever, abdominal cramps and fecal
urgency.
32. Non inflammatory diarrhea
Non inflammatory diarrhea is generally a milder
disease and is caused by viruses, or toxins that
affect the small intestine and interfere salt and
water balance, resulting in large volume watery
diarrhea, often with nausea, vomiting and cramps.
33. Chronic diarrhea
Diarrhea continuing for weeks or months either
persistent or intermittent is called chronic
diarrhea.
34. Types of chronic diarrhoea
There are two types:
Osmotic diarrhea
Secretory diarrhea
Osmotic diarrhea: Diarrhea that stops when
feeding is discontinued is osmotic diarrhea.
Secretory diarrhea: Diarrhea that persists even, if
the patient is fasted, is secretory diarrhea.
35. Viruses: Rota virus, measles virus etc.
Bacteria: E.coli, Shigella, Salmonella, cholera vibrio
etc.
Parasites: E.histolytica, etc.
Fungi: Candida albicans
Food poisoning
Drugs
- NSAIDs
- Antibiotics
Causes of Acute Diarrhea
36. Causes of chronic diarrhea
Ulcerative colitis.
Chron's diseases.
Malignancy
Thyrotoxicosis
Tuberculosis enteritis
Mal absorption of bile salt
37. Investigation

Diet
Small amounts of bland foods
Low fiber diet
BRAT Diet (banna, rice, apple, toast)
Avoid excessively hot or cold fluids. These are
stimulants.
Potassium-rich foods and fluid (e.g. banana,
Gatorade)
40. Apply Your Knowledge
What are the types of acute diarrhea?
ANSWER: There are two types :
1. Inflammatory
2. Non inflammatory
41. Liver abscess
Liver abscess is a pus-filled cavity in the liver.
Now what is pus???
So it is yellowish or greenish colour fluid containing
dead WBCs ,living and dead bacteria as well as
fragments of dead tissues.
It is caused by bacteria, entamoeba histolytica and
fungi especially candida species.
42. Types of liver abscess
The 3 major forms of liver abscess, classified by
etiology, are as follows:
Pyogenic abscess (80 %).
Amebic abscess (10%).
Fungal abscess (10%).
43.
44. Etiology
Abdominal infection such
as appendicitis, diverticulitis.
Infection of the bile duct.
Recent endoscopy of the bile duct.
Trauma that damages the liver.
Cholangitis
Generalized sepsis.
45. Clinical manefestation
Chest pain (lower right)
Clay-colored stools
Fever, chills
Loss of appetite
Nausea, vomiting
Pain in right upper abdomen
Unintentional weight loss
Weakness
46. Exams and test
Abdominal CT scan
Abdominal ultrasound
Bilirubin blood test
Blood culture for bacteria
Complete blood count (CBC)
Liver biopsy
Liver function tests
47. Treatment
USG or CT guided aspiration or drainage of
abscess.
Antibiotic therapy is given especially in a case with
multiple liver abscesses.
Metronidazole(35-50mg/kg in 3 divided doses for
10 days) in a case of amebic abscess.
Surgical treatment: if abscess ruptures outside the
liver.
48. Nursing Diagnosis
Impaired Liver Function related to cysts in the
liver
Acute pain related to disease process.
Imbalanced nutrition: Less than body
requirements related to loss of appetite.
Risk for impaired skin integrity related to
surgical drainage of the cyst.
Risk for infection related to surgical incision.
49. Nursing intervention
Asses and checked signs and complaint of pain
Administered pain killer, analgesic as order
Administered antipyretic : panadol as ordered
Administered IVF as order
Assist patient and encourage him to take food
Observed and monitor output and condition of
liver abscess drainage
Administered antibiotic as order
50. Apply Your Knowledge
What are the types of liver abscess
ANSWER: There are three types of liver abscess
1. Pyogenic abscess(80%)
2. Amoebic abscess(10%):
3. Fungal abscess(10%)
51. Intestinal obstruction
Intestinal obstruction is a partial or complete
blockage of the intestines that prevents the
contents of the intestine from passing through.
It can occur at any level distal to the duodenum of
the small intestine and is a medical emergency.
52.
53. Pathophysiology
Obstruction gives rise to increased intra luminal
pressure.
Accumulation of gas and fluid occurs in the
obstructed segment.
There is impairment of blood supply. Bacterial
invasion occurs.
Peritonitis may occur.
Ventilation becomes restricted due to elevation of
diaphragm and distention of abdomen.
54. Etiology
Chemical, electrolyte, or mineral imbalances (such
as decreased potassium levels)
Complications of abdominal surgery
Decreased blood supply to the intestines
Infections inside the abdomen, such as
appendicitis
Hernias
Tumors blocking the intestines
Volvulus (twisted).
55. Sign and symptom
Abdominal swelling (distention)
Abdominal fullness
Abdominal pain and cramping.
Constipation
Inability to pass gas
Vomiting
56. Diagnosis
Physical exam: During a physical exam, the
health care provider may find bloating,
tenderness, or hernias in the abdomen.
Tests that show obstruction include:
Abdominal CT scan
Abdominal x-ray
Barium enema
57. Treatment
Treatment involves placing a tube through the
nose into the stomach or intestine to help relieve
abdominal distention and vomiting.
Surgery may be needed to relieve the obstruction if
the tube does not relieve the symptoms, or if there
are signs of tissue death.
Placing an intravenous (IV) line into a vein in arm
so that fluids can be given.
58. Nursing diagnosis
Acute pain related to abdominal distention.
Imbalanced nutrition less than body
requirements related to decreased nutrient intake.
Constipation related to intestinal obstruction.
Ineffective tissue perfusion (gastrointestinal)
related to obstruction.
Risk for deficient fluid volume related to
intestinal obstruction.
59. Nursing intervention
Administer analgesics to relieve pain.
Administer laxatives to prevent constipation.
Advice the patient to take soft food and fluid to
reduce the volume of stool.
Avoid the patient from eating hard and spicy food.
Teach the patient the dosages, routes, and side
effects for all medications.
60. Biliary atresia
Biliary atresia is a blockage in the tubes (ducts)
that carry a liquid called bile from the liver to the
gallbladder.
61. Cont.…
Biliary atresia occurs when the bile ducts inside or
outside the liver do not develop normally. It is not
known why the biliary system fails to develop
normally.
The bile ducts help remove waste from the liver
and carry salts that help the small intestine break
down (digest) fat.
In babies with biliary atresia, bile flow from the
liver to the gallbladder is blocked. This can lead to
liver damage and cirrhosis of the liver.
62.
63.
64. Types
• Fetal-embryonic form appears in the first 2
weeks of life and 10-20% of affected neonates
have associated congenital defects.
• The postnatal form of biliary atresia is typically
found in neonates and infants aged 2-8 weeks.
Progressive inflammation and obliteration of the
extra hepatic bile ducts occur after birth. This
form is not associated with congenital anomalies,
and infants may have a short jaundice-free
interval.
65. Sign and symptom
Develops jaundice at two or three weak
Dark urine
Alcoholic stools (clay-colored stools) -- because no
bile or bilirubin coloring is being emptied into the
intestine.
Abdomen may become swollen from a firm,
enlarged liver.
Weight loss and irritability.
66. Diagnosis
Abdominal x-ray
Abdominal ultrasound
Blood tests to check total and direct bilirubin
levels
Liver biopsy to determine the severity of cirrhosis
or to rule out other causes of jaundice
X-ray of the bile ducts (cholangiogram)
67. Treatment
An operation called the Kasai procedure is done to
connect the liver to the small intestine, going
around the abnormal ducts.
It is most successful if done before the baby is 8
weeks old.
However, a liver transplant may still be needed.
68. Nursing management
Fluid which are given in ordered to maintain the
correct sugar, salt and water level in body.
Pain relieving drug are often through drip or
suppositories.
Antibiotic will be given immediately after
operation and for at least 48 hours.
Additional vitamins are necessary because poor
bile flow can reduce absorption of vitamins.
69. Amoebiasis
Amoebiasis refers to infection caused by
the amoeba Entamoeba histolytica.
About 10 percent of the world's population is
infected with E.Histolytica.
About 90 percent of infections are asymptomatic
and the remaining 10 percent produces a
spectrum varying from dysentery to amoebic liver
abscess.
70. Etiology
It is caused by a protozoa, Entamoeba Histolytica.
It is commonly spread by water contaminated by
faeces or from food served by contaminated hands.
Even vegetables grown in soil contaminated by
faeces can transmit the disease.
71. Sign and symptom
Abdominal discomfort
Diarrhea that may include blood or mucus .
Other symptoms may also occur, such as:
Nausea
Weight loss
Fever
Chills
72. Diagnosis
Stool examination is the commonest examination
done for diagnosis.
Serology is positive in more than 90 percent
patients with invasive amoebiasis.
Ultrasound, CT and MRI scans of the abdomen
can be useful in diagnosing amoebiasis.
73. Treatment
Antibiotic drugs to kill the parasites, the
commonly used antibiotics are:
1. Metronidazole.
2. Tinidazole
Bed rest and drinking a solution (containing salt
and glucose) to replace losses from the diarrhea
and for rehydration may also be necessary.
If dehydration is severe, intravenous fluids may
be required.
74. Nursing management
Administer medications properly
Boil water for drinking or use purified water;
Cover leftover food;
Wash hands after defecation or before eating; and
Proper collection of stool specimen.
Instruct patient to avoid mixing urine with stools.
Mouth care
Provide optimum comfort.
