cough and wheezing
dnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in

• Accompanying symptoms – fever, cold, vomiting,
skin rash, failure to thrive
• Past history of similar episode
• Feeding, growth, well being, immunisation
• Birth history
• Family history of atopy / contact with viral inf
• Drug history – relief if anydnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in
Station 2 – physical exam
• Examine respiratory system of this child
dnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in
• Introduce yourself and take permission from
mother or child
• Undress the child
• Examine from foot end or head end for
respiration
• Palpate for tracheal deviation
• Percuss gently and follow rules of
percussiion
dnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in

asthma – counsel the parents
dnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in

they would feel comfortable

over oral medications

dnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in
dnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in

Station 5
dnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in
• What is the approximate normal value of
PEFR in a child whose height is 120 cms
dnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in
• 200 litres
• Formula to be used
PEFR in litres = (height in cms –80) x 5
dnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in
Station 6
• What are different types of devices used for
inhalation therapy?
• What is the advantage of a spacer?
• Describe maintenance of spacer
dnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in
• MDI with spacer, DPI, nebuliser
• Advantage of a spacer – no respiratory
coordination necessary / better deposition of
drug / no pharyngeal deposition of drug
thereby reducing chance of oropharyngeal
candidiasis and hoarseness of voice
• Wash with mild soap and water – drip dry
dnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in
Station 7
• In case of need for oxygen therapy, attempts
must be made to decrease oxygen
consumption. Name maneuvers to decrease
oxygen consumption
dnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in
• Control fever
• Adequate humidification
• Proper positioning
• Open airway
• Clear secretions
• Alleviate anxiety – child in mother’s lap
dnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in
Station 8
• What is low flow and high flow system of
oxygen delivery?
• Give examples of low flow and high flow
system
dnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in
• Low flow < pt’s inspiratory flow
achieves low oxygen concentration
Low flow systems – face mask, nasal canula
• High flow is adequate or > pt’s inspiratory flow
achieves high oxygen concentration
non-breathing mask - face mask and reservoir bag
with valve, oxygen hood, venturi mask
offers fixed FiO2 delivery
dnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in
Station 9
• Define following terms in relation to TB
Relapse
Defaulter
Lost to treatment
Treatment failure
• What treatment for each of them?
dnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in
• Relapse – signs and symptoms reappearing within
2 years of completion of ATT
• Defaulter – one who discontinues treatment for >
1 week
• Lost to treatment – one who defaults for > 1
month
• Treatment failure – no response or deterioration
after 12 weeks of intensive therapy
• Category 2 of RNTCP
2SHRZE / 1HRZE / 5HRE
dnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in
Station 10
dnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in
• Identify the condition
• Name three salient features
• Name type of inheritance
• What is the prognosis?
dnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in
• Ataxia-talengectesia
• Recurrent sino-pulmonary infections,
ataxia, immune deficiency, malignancy
• Autosomal recessive
• Poor – death due to chronic respiratory
failure by second decade
dnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in
What are the two most
important
abnormalities present?
• This healthy child
presented with
increasing
breathlessness over 12
hours. Name probable
diagnosis
dnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in
• Left pleural effusion and mediastinal shift
• Acute allergic pleural effusion of TB or
traumatic hemorrhagic effusion
dnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in
Station 12
• Name biochemical criteria for exudative
pleural fluid
dnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in
• pH < 7.2
• Pleural fluid > 3 gm/l
• Pleural LDH > 200 IU/l
or
Pleural fluid / serum LDH > 0.6
Pleural fluid / serum protein > 0.5
dnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in
Station 13
• How do you manage pleural effusion
accompanying acute pneumonia?
dnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in
• Uncomplicated para-pneumonic effusion – chest
x-ray lateral decubitus < 10 mm fluid – antibiotics
only
• Complicated effusion – chest x-ray lateral
decubitus - > 10 mm fluid / pH >7.2 / glucose > 40
/ protein < 3 gm/l – antibiotic + thoracocentesis
• Complicated effusion – chest x-ray lateral
decubitus > 10 mm fluid / pH < 7.2 / glucose < 40
/ protein > 3 gm/l – antibiotic + tube drainage
• Multiple loculations – VAT / decortication
dnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in
Station 14
dnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in
• Multiple fractures
• Bilateral pneumothorax
• Air in soft tissue
• Scoliosis
dnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in
Station 15
dnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in
• This 7 year old child was diagnosed as
acute pneumonia on the basis of clinical
profile, neutrophilic leucocytosis and chest
x-ray – was treated with IV Ceftriaxone
• 4 days later, as fever continued, repeat CBC
and chest x-ray were ordered
• What is the problem?
dnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in
dnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in
• Immune mediated inflammatory disease
Wagner’s granulomatosis
dnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in
Station 16
dnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in
dnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in
• What is the problem?
• How do you treat?
dnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in
• Paradoxical immune response
• Continue same ATT – in case of acute
symptoms such as breathlessness, consider
oral steroids
dnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in
Station 17
• What concentration of PPD is ideal for
Mantoux test?
• How do you measure test result?
• How do you interpret test result?
• What is the effect of BCG vaccine on Mt
test?
dnbpaediatrics.blogspot.in
• PPD 1 TU RT 23 with Tween 80 as a preservative
or PPD 2 TU without Tween 80 – PPD 5TU may
be an acceptable though inferior alternative
• Ball point method of measuring induration
• Induration > 10 mm is considered +ve indicative
of natural infection
• Previous BCG vaccine has minimal to none
influence on interpretation of Mantoux test
