HISTORY TAKING AND FAMILY ASSESSMENT IN PEDIATRIC NURSINGRitu Gahlawat
History taking is an art as well as science that requires a thorough knowledge of medicine along with patience and good command on the language of the patient.
The history is the written record of all the facts about the patient's present and past illnesses.
The format used for history taking may be
(1)direct, in which the nurse asks for information via direct interview with the informant, or
(2)indirect, in which the informant supplies the information by completing some type of questionnaire.
Much of the identifying information may already be available from other recorded sources. However, if the parent and child seem anxious use this opportunity to ask about such information to help them feel more comfortable.
Informant. The person(s) who furnishes the information. Record (1) who the person is (child, parent, or other). (2) an impression of reliability and willingness to communicate, and (3) any special circumstances such as the use of an interpreter or conflicting answers by more than one person.
The chief complaint is the specific reason for the child's visit to the clinic, office, or hospital. It may be the theme, with the present illness viewed as the description of the problem. Elicit the chief complaint by asking open ended, neutral questions And Avoid labelling type questions.
Occasionally, it is difficult to isolate one symptom or problem as the chief complaint because the parent may identify many. In this situation, be as specific as possible when asking questions.
The history of the present illness is a narrative of the chief complaint from its earliest onset through its progression to the present.
Its four major components are
the details of onset,
a complete interval history,
the present status, and
the reason for seeking help now.
Analyzing a Symptom. Because pain is often the most characteristic symptom denoting the onset of a physical problem, it is used as an example for analysis of a symptom.
Assessment includes type, location, severity, duration, and influencing factors.
The history contains information relating to all previous aspects of the child's health status and concentrates on several areas that are ordinarily passed over in the history of an adult, such as birth history, detailed feeding history, immunizations, and growth and development.
Birth History
The birth history includes all data concerning
the mother's health during pregnancy,
the labor and delivery, and
the infant's condition immediately after birth.Dietary History
Parental concerns are common and nursing interventions are important in ensuring optimum nutrition.
Previous illnesses, Injuries, and Surgeries
When inquiring about past illnesses, begin with a general question. In addition to illnesses, ask about injuries that required medical intervention, surgeries, procedures, and hospitalizations, including the dates of each incident. Focus on injuries because these may be potential areas for parental guidance.

MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the structure and function of taste buds.
Describe the relationship between the taste threshold and taste index of common substances.
Explain the chemical basis and signal transduction of taste perception for each type of primary taste sensation.
Recognize different abnormalities of taste perception and their causes.
Key Topics:
Significance of Taste Sensation:
Differentiation between pleasant and harmful food
Influence on behavior
Selection of food based on metabolic needs
Receptors of Taste:
Taste buds on the tongue
Influence of sense of smell, texture of food, and pain stimulation (e.g., by pepper)
Primary and Secondary Taste Sensations:
Primary taste sensations: Sweet, Sour, Salty, Bitter, Umami
Chemical basis and signal transduction mechanisms for each taste
Taste Threshold and Index:
Taste threshold values for Sweet (sucrose), Salty (NaCl), Sour (HCl), and Bitter (Quinine)
Taste index relationship: Inversely proportional to taste threshold
Taste Blindness:
Inability to taste certain substances, particularly thiourea compounds
Example: Phenylthiocarbamide
Structure and Function of Taste Buds:

Features: Taste pores, Taste hairs/microvilli, and Taste nerve fibers
Location of Taste Buds:
Found in papillae of the tongue (Fungiform, Circumvallate, Foliate)
Also present on the palate, tonsillar pillars, epiglottis, and proximal esophagus
Mechanism of Taste Stimulation:
Interaction of taste substances with receptors on microvilli
Signal transduction pathways for Umami, Sweet, Bitter, Sour, and Salty tastes
Taste Sensitivity and Adaptation:
Decrease in sensitivity with age
Rapid adaptation of taste sensation
Role of Saliva in Taste:
Dissolution of tastants to reach receptors
Washing away the stimulus

Causes: Nerve damage, neurological disorders, infections, poor oral hygiene, adverse drug effects, deficiencies, aging, tobacco use, altered neurotransmitter levels
Neurotransmitters and Taste Threshold:
Effects of serotonin (5-HT) and norepinephrine (NE) on taste sensitivity
Supertasters:
25% of the population with heightened sensitivity to taste, especially bitterness
