- 0:12today we are going to do on a pediatric
- 0:15pneumonia followed by uh asthma
- 0:20so it's a very good uh topic from uh
- 0:23respiratory case point of view I'll try
- 0:25to be as concise as possible and
- 0:28followed by the important questions that
- 0:30might come okay
- 0:34so to start with the
- 0:36Manju one year old one month old female
- 0:40child resident of uh sadar Bazar Delhi
- 0:44so the first will be your demographics
- 0:46of which age is important I will come to
- 0:49the later on depending upon the age the
- 0:51type of organism will vary so this is
- 0:54the age group where viral infections are
- 0:56very common up to five years okay six
- 0:58months to six years you have more viral
- 1:00infections common
- 1:03informant make sure the mother is giving
- 1:05a reliable make sure mother is giving
- 1:07the history so it's going to be reliable
- 1:10and try to use the patient's own words
- 1:13okay press and presenting with
- 1:14complaints of fever and cough since six
- 1:17days
- 1:18and uh fast breathing since four days
- 1:22reduced oral intake since one day and
- 1:25increase the irritability since one day
- 1:27so use patient words don't use technical
- 1:29words like tachypnea similarly the words
- 1:32like dyspnea which is a patient's own
- 1:35awareness for a one-year-old child it's
- 1:37not possible so patients own awareness
- 1:39all you don't try to use okay
- 1:42and coming to the history of presenting
- 1:45illness
- 1:46child was apparently well six days ago
- 1:48when she developed a fever the
- 1:50temperature was recorded what not two to
- 1:53one or three fever Fahrenheit fever not
- 1:56was not associated with chills and
- 1:57Rikers there was no rash no diurnal
- 2:01variation and somewhat relieved with
- 2:03medications like antipyretics and child
- 2:06well in between episodes okay
- 2:09I'll keep reading the presenting
- 2:10complaints fully
- 2:12cough was wet as there were some sounds
- 2:15noticed by the parents non peroxisible
- 2:18non spasmodic no diurnal variations no
- 2:21aggravating factors and not associated
- 2:23with any post acid vomiting cough was
- 2:27still persisting in spite of medicines
- 2:29taking medications child has fast
- 2:31breathing for the past four days and
- 2:34increasing but no chest retractions
- 2:37according to the mother and not relieved
- 2:39promptly by medicines
- 2:41no history of worsening with the feeding
- 2:44the fast breathing no suck wrist suck
- 2:46cycle no foreheads sweating
- 2:49history of noisy breathing present but
- 2:51not able to characterize mother is not
- 2:53able to characterize their noisy
- 2:54breathing residues to oral acceptance
- 2:56and increased irritability since one day
- 3:00so here uh chills chills is something
- 3:03which is subjective don't try to use
- 3:05that in this uh presenting complaints so
- 3:07chills will not come rigas may be
- 3:10present and the presence of fever
- 3:12suggests that there is probably some
- 3:15infection or at least some inflammation
- 3:17is going on
- 3:18and if there is any rash it could be a
- 3:21viral uh fever because viral infections
- 3:24are common so try to elicit history of a
- 3:26viral rash and try to characterize if it
- 3:29is not measles you have the macro
- 3:32popular rash coming from the head to
- 3:34foot with conjunctivitis make sure it's
- 3:37not a measles rash because the pneumonia
- 3:39staff pneumonia is very common with
- 3:41measles
- 3:43and it usually it cannot be an asthma
- 3:47because usually asthma will be a fibril
- 3:49and coming to cough the gurgling sound
- 3:53wet cough or dry cough you can
- 3:55differentiate and remember children uh
- 3:58up to five years do not expect to rate
- 4:00they swallow the sputum followed by
- 4:03vomiting so the post-tustive vomiting or
- 4:06the post cough vomiting is an equivalent
- 4:08to productive cough so if the child
- 4:10keeps on vomiting often with cough and
- 4:13whatever vomit is new called it is an
- 4:15equivalent to expectoration
- 4:17diagonal variation very often uh we talk
- 4:21about diagonal variation if it is
- 4:22nocturnal probably it is asthma where
- 4:24you have diagonal variation
- 4:26and
- 4:28paroxysmal event here it is non-proximal
- 4:31paroxysmal means sudden sudden even in a
- 4:34child they try to ask you because they
- 4:37want that it could be a foreign body
- 4:39they want you to tell that it could be a
- 4:41foreign body and regarding fast
- 4:43breathing remember the moment there is
- 4:45fast breathing instead of the you URI it
- 4:49has gone to the lower airway involvement
- 4:51okay so there can be running nose which
- 4:53is probably upper away but once you have
- 4:55fever running nose cough and fast
- 4:58breathing fast breathing then the lower
- 5:00Air wave especially the parenchyma is
- 5:02involved and also you should remember
- 5:04that always not always fast breathing is
- 5:07equivalent to respiratory tract they
- 5:08will ask you the differential diagnosis
- 5:10it could be a respiratory it could be a
- 5:12cardiac it could be metabolic acidosis
- 5:14it could be raised ICT resulting in
- 5:17hyperventilation and sometimes a very
- 5:19trivial causes like fever can cause
- 5:22tachypnea or fast breathing even in
- 5:24nasal block children breathe through
- 5:26their nose small all babies breathe
- 5:28through the nose so nasal block itself
- 5:30causes respiratory distress and
- 5:32regarding noisy breathing they might
- 5:34attempt to ask you sometimes you can
- 5:37have Audible noises it could be a
- 5:39Strider they might ask you what is it
- 5:42it's a inspiratory sound Strider due to
- 5:45laryngeal involvement Strider okay these
- 5:48it's a an expiratory noise Audible for
- 5:52by the parents okay it's an expiratory
- 5:54phenomenon these and sometimes grunting
- 5:56where the baby breathes against a closed
- 5:59glottis to prevent collapse of the
- 6:01alveoli they expect you to tell these
- 6:03birds what is grunting grunting is a
- 6:05noise produced by the baby breathes out
- 6:08against a closed glottis to prevent the
- 6:11alveoli from collapsing so that is
- 6:13grunting which is suggestive of
- 6:14parenchymal lesion okay and the reduced
- 6:17overall acceptance we have asked because
- 6:19we need to understand whether it is
- 6:22severe enough needing hospitalization or
- 6:24not okay and after the presenting
- 6:27illness you should be able to say that
- 6:29it is an acute onset infection it is an
- 6:33infection because fever is there acute
- 6:35onset less than a weak duration and
- 6:37probably because of the fast breathing
- 6:39the lower respiratory tract is involved
- 6:42okay and it's does it deserve
- 6:45hospitalization yes the there is uh
- 6:47severity is high reduce oral acceptance
- 6:50is there and the irritable child is also
- 6:52irritable okay
- 6:54and coming to the negative history
- 6:56no history of running nose ear pain and
- 7:00ear discharge no history of loose tools
- 7:02vomiting abdominal pain and rash here
- 7:04why we are asking because we want to
- 7:06differentiate a viral infection from the
- 7:08bacterial infection viral infection
- 7:10usually is multi-systemic so it involves
- 7:13the upper respiratory tract infection
- 7:15which includes running nose it can even
- 7:17involve the ear discharge ear pain and
- 7:20also it will it can involve the ga
- 7:22system so loose tools vomiting abdominal
- 7:25pain so it can involve the
- 7:26multi-systemic okay and viral often can
- 7:30present with some sort of rash
- 7:32especially remember the measles rash
- 7:35because the pneumonia which is going to
- 7:37be serious type if it's going to be
- 7:39measles rash okay the staph pneumonia is
- 7:41going to be very serious enough
- 7:43no history of failure to gain weight or
- 7:46uh there is any weight loss so not only
- 7:48weight loss failure to gain weight is
- 7:50also important no evening rise in
- 7:52temperature because uh if there is a
- 7:55fever history of more than two weeks so
- 7:57here it's only six days more than two
- 7:59weeks along with respiratory symptoms
- 8:01along with maybe an history of not
- 8:04gaining weight we should suspect
- 8:07tuberculosis here they will always in
- 8:09the respiratory case they will always
- 8:11come back to tuberculosis so when will
- 8:13you suspect to go closer so it's going
- 8:15to be a longer duration of fever plus
- 8:18respiratory symptoms plus this not only
- 8:21weight loss five percent weight loss
- 8:23even failure to gain weight is also
- 8:25important okay
- 8:27okay and no history of cyanosis and
- 8:31sodium convulsions vomiting letter okay
- 8:33so here these are all symptoms
- 8:35suggestive of complication okay so the
- 8:38pneumonia is severe enough to cause
- 8:39cyanosis the there is lot of hypoxemia
- 8:42and carbon dioxide so resulting in
- 8:45lethargy altered and sodium and
- 8:47convulsions or the infection has passed
- 8:50on to cause meningitis and septicemia
- 8:52okay so you have to ask questions
- 8:54related to come
- 8:59applications in that negative history
- 9:01coming to history of here no history of
- 9:04any previous nebulization or
- 9:05hospitalization in the past
- 9:08no history of earlier treatment no
- 9:11history of any form of allergies in the
- 9:13past it could be skin allergies or food
- 9:15allergies okay why this recurrent
- 9:17episodes are asked because uh very
- 9:20important is the asthma it is
- 9:22characterized by recurrent episodes of
- 9:24respiratory symptoms as well as cough
- 9:27requiring nebulization which Madam will
- 9:29be explaining later on in the other case
- 9:31also recurrent episodes of cough with
- 9:34fast breathing needing hospitalization
- 9:36suggestive of real pneumonitis recurrent
- 9:39pneumonias always think in terms of
- 9:41cystic fibrosis immunodeficiency or
- 9:44sometimes congenital heart disease like
- 9:46vsds or if the child is a CP or any uh
- 9:50or atomical malformation like turquoise
- 9:53visual fistula is there so aspiration is
- 9:55common causing recurrent lra so whenever
- 9:58a child has two episodes in six months
- 10:00or more than three episodes for the
- 10:02whole lifetime we call that as recurrent
- 10:05episodes okay and space are history try
- 10:08to ask in the past history regarding the
- 10:10treatment also in treatment history
- 10:11whether spacer works used whether any
- 10:13preventive treatment was used or not
- 10:15then comes history of contact with the
- 10:17TB there is no history of contact with
- 10:20any person with tuberculosis very
- 10:23important and respiratory case and you
- 10:26need to understand that in the recent
- 10:29two years they ask about contact history
- 10:31in the recent two years anybody had any
- 10:34TB they don't come up with straight away
- 10:37so they had TB you have to ask whether
- 10:39any family member with chronic cough
- 10:41whether anyone died due to respiratory
- 10:44symptoms and it doesn't stop with
- 10:45household contacts close contacts so
- 10:48even here the child is one year so even
- 10:51if a child goes to school so even in the
- 10:53school also close contacts is important
- 10:55with TB definition in the last two years
- 10:58okay
- 10:59and treatment history prior to admission
- 11:01oral medications were given after
- 11:03admission IV fluids and some medications
- 11:06probably antibiotics have been given so
- 11:08here the history is important because to
- 11:10choose the antibiotics if recently
- 11:12overall medication given a child is not
- 11:14responding maybe we have to step up the
- 11:16antibiotics okay and coming to antenatal
- 11:19history it has been uh it's uh not much
- 11:22important so just say uneven full and it
- 11:25was a book case and immunized mother was
- 11:28immunized make sure that proper care was
- 11:31given entry in Italy and it was uneven
- 11:33fully and finally in the natal history
- 11:35it's going to be a full uh full term
- 11:38normal vaginal delivery three kilogram
- 11:40immediately cried after birth and make
- 11:43sure that everything went normal so no
- 11:46Nico admission and breastfeeding was
- 11:48started within half an hour that says
- 11:50that everything was fine okay and
- 11:52postnatal history was also uneven full
- 11:54if any jaundice was there for any
- 11:56photography was given anything you'd
- 11:58have to mention that otherwise no need
- 12:00to elaborate as in cerebral palsy where
- 12:03we elaborate in first semester second
- 12:04trimester third trimester okay
- 12:08okay coming to the nutrition history so
- 12:12any Pediatrics try to take your
- 12:16nutrition history development to see
- 12:18immunization history in detail okay
- 12:19child was breastfed till one year
- 12:22exclusively breastfed for uh
- 12:25uh here eight months okay then semi
- 12:28solids were introduced and child was
- 12:30breastfed till one year after that they
- 12:31have stopped breastfeeding and at
- 12:34present the child consumes about 650
- 12:36calories and around 15 grams of protein
- 12:39as against the expected 1000 calories
- 12:42and 20 grams requirement so you can even
- 12:45give a deficit how much is the deficit
- 12:48so that would be nice okay so the
- 12:50nutritional history is important suppose
- 12:53breastfeeding is also going you just say
- 12:55in addition to 65 650 calories and 15
- 12:58grams of protein child is also taking
- 13:00breastfeeding okay and immunization
- 13:03history make sure the major vaccines
- 13:06have been given or not so child has
- 13:07received a DPT Hepatitis B polio drops
- 13:11and measles vaccine at appropriate age
- 13:13the mother might not come up with this
- 13:15but as per National immunization
- 13:17schedule you can even say like that as
- 13:18per National immunization schedule the
- 13:20child has been given vaccination and the
- 13:22last vaccination was given at 9 moments
- 13:25of age so it is understood that they
- 13:27have given all these vaccines and
- 13:29nowadays in National immunization
- 13:31schedule it's of the rotavirus is also
- 13:33given and in some places pneumococcal is
- 13:36also given and recently nemococcal has
- 13:37been made mandatory for all over India
- 13:39it's going to come very soon okay and uh
- 13:42what they might ask you about questions
- 13:44about related to pneumonia so one is BCG
- 13:47vaccine definitely they will ask you
- 13:49about BCG vaccination and the most
- 13:52important question they will ask is if
- 13:53the child has been BCG vaccinated so
- 13:55will the child not give TB so the answer
- 13:58is no they will get TB because BCG
- 14:00protects doesn't protect from all forms
- 14:03of TB only mainly the severe forms of TB
- 14:05it protects so the the mild pulmonary
- 14:09tuberculosis all it may not protect it
- 14:12protects mainly against the milie
- 14:13reforms meningeal forms of tuberculosis
- 14:16then they will ask you about the
- 14:18importance of pneumococcal vaccine the
- 14:20schedule hash influenza vaccine measles
- 14:23vaccine and sometimes they might even
- 14:25ask about the influenza vaccine so keep
- 14:27that with the schedule and Route Etc
- 14:30then developmental assessment child is
- 14:33able to stand without support and trying
- 14:35to walk able to speak three words wave
- 14:37bye bye please
- 14:39so whatever at this age child is doing
- 14:42you just tell those milestones and say
- 14:44that the child's development is
- 14:46appropriate for each okay
- 14:52in family history the child is born out
- 14:55of non-consumuous marriage no history of
- 14:57similar complaints and siblings or
- 14:59parents no history of asthma allergy or
- 15:02tuberculosis in their family make sure
- 15:04that there is no family history make
- 15:06sure that everything is fine or if they
- 15:08are suffering from anything you just
- 15:09mentioned especially the allergies run
- 15:11in families okay socioeconomic history
- 15:13very important so here lives in a Paka
- 15:17house and belongs to lower middle
- 15:18socioeconomic status according to the
- 15:21modified kupusami scale main important
- 15:24is consider about overcrowding is there
- 15:26overcrowding present suppose you have
- 15:29more than three persons family persons
- 15:31for two room it's considered
- 15:33overcrowding more than five for a three
- 15:36room then it is overcrowding okay and
- 15:39here overcluding is present and father
- 15:41smokes at home he's a smoker so children
- 15:43are exposed to passive smoking that is
- 15:45also a risk factor and mother is a
- 15:47housewife and father Works in a shopper
- 15:49salesman mother's literature is fifth
- 15:51grade and Father tell so the education
- 15:53status is very important so they might
- 15:55not be so aware and you have to give lot
- 15:57of education and counseling to follow
- 15:59the complaints with treatment okay so
- 16:02the summary of the history is uh
- 16:06here is a one year and one month old
- 16:09female child resident of sadar Bazaar
- 16:12Delhi presented with a short one week
- 16:13history of fever of fast breathing
- 16:15without curessa and reduced to oral
- 16:18acceptance and increase the irritability
- 16:20okay there is no history of similar
- 16:22complaints in the past no history of
- 16:24nebulization and no history of recurrent
- 16:26infections in the past analysis is a
- 16:29child presented so this they might ask
- 16:31you what do you infer from it so I infer
- 16:34that it is probably a respiratory tract
- 16:36infection it is an infection and
- 16:39probably it is a lower respiratory tract
- 16:41infection in view of the faster
- 16:42breathing and it's a short acute uh
- 16:46history so infection is the etiology and
- 16:49since there is no viral program there is
- 16:51no such as choriza or rash or diarrhea
- 16:55Etc the a viral disease is unlikely it
- 16:57looks it doesn't look like a viral
- 16:59disease okay so the my professional
- 17:01diagnosis is a lower respiratory tract
- 17:03infection okay and probably it could be
- 17:06pneumonia Broncho pneumonia pneumonia or
- 17:08Bronco pneumonia either of it and
- 17:10sometimes complications like pleural
- 17:12efficient also could be there so I would
- 17:14like to even exclude complications and I
- 17:16would like to examine the respiratory
- 17:18system so that will be your provisional
- 17:20diagnosis I'm coming to the examination
- 17:22child is a conscious irritable and not
- 17:26comfortable very important whether the
- 17:28child is comfortable or not okay where
- 17:31the child is irritable irritable is a
- 17:33sign of hypoxemia so make sure that the
- 17:35child is comfortable not having any
- 17:38distress okay the other ways you mention
- 17:40it then comes the vitals so respiratory
- 17:43weight is 68 per minute and it is
- 17:45abdominal thoracic and there are
- 17:47subcostal retractions present but no
- 17:49flaring of Allen they say no accessory
- 17:51muscles in the neck are involved and
- 17:53there is no head bobbing very important
- 17:55to know how severe is the respiratory
- 17:58problem so you here they will ask you
- 18:00about the ium and say criteria for fast
- 18:02breathing okay so less than two months
- 18:04so more than 60 is tachypnea two months
- 18:07to one year more than 50 per minute is
- 18:10tachypnea and more than one year more
- 18:12than 40 is considered as tachypnea so
- 18:15any techie
- 18:20yeah that's foreign
- 18:31is there then the pneumonia is very uh
- 18:33serious sort of infection might need
- 18:35immediate Ico admission okay and the
- 18:38pulse rate is 110 per minute pulses
- 18:40regular rhythmic good volume no radio
- 18:42radial or radio femoral delay and click
- 18:45CRT very important it's less than three
- 18:48seconds so the child is not in shock and
- 18:51remember all these uh parameters may
- 18:53vary because of the fever itself so here
- 18:55fever is uh one or two so for every one
- 18:58degree raise in temperature they will
- 19:00ask you four RR will increase and 10
- 19:02pulse rate will increase so you have to
- 19:04subtract for that so here three fours
- 19:07are twelve so even if we subtract 12
- 19:09from this still it will fit with the
- 19:11tachypnea criteria okay and coming to
- 19:13the anthropometry very important for
- 19:16less than five years we are going to use
- 19:17the who growth charts more than that IAP
- 19:19growth charts you have to give your
- 19:21interpretation so here weight is 8 kg so
- 19:24it is just above the third Central for a
- 19:27one year we want at least 9 kg place so
- 19:30it is just greater than third Center so
- 19:32it is just above the criteria for under
- 19:34nutrition or else we would call the
- 19:36child as under nutrition then height is
- 19:3976 centimeters so it is around the 50th
- 19:41Century so it is normal otherwise we
- 19:43would put under stunting less than third
- 19:45sentence stunting and head circumference
- 19:47it is in the third to 50th sentence so
- 19:50it is normal and wait for height very
- 19:52important very for height it is between
- 19:55the first and the third Center so it is
- 19:57uh below the third Center so it falls
- 20:00under the moderate acute malnutrition if
- 20:03less than one Center then it is severe
- 20:05acute malnutrition so here it is
- 20:07moderate acute malnutrition so which
- 20:10means recently there has been some
- 20:12problem with the feeding issues so in
- 20:15addition to the all the treatment at the
- 20:17end while discharge you have to also
- 20:19address the nutrition issues also okay
- 20:23foreign
- 20:27to 12.5 centimeter so about 12.5 is uh
- 20:31above 13.5 is fine so here 11 to 12.5 so
- 20:35it also suggests that it is moderate
- 20:37acute malnutrition less than 11 is going
- 20:39to be severe acute malnutrition okay so
- 20:41use the who grow charts to tell your
- 20:44interpretation then head to foot
- 20:46examination so itrespeller cyanosis so
- 20:48here mild trailer is there no cyanosis
- 20:51which means uh because of the
- 20:53respiratory distress the cyanosis has
- 20:55not developed otherwise it's going to be
- 20:56a serious issue requiring intensive care
- 20:59no interest no lymphadenopathy
- 21:02especially for tuberculosis
- 21:03lymphadenopathy is important no clubbing
- 21:05no edema clubbing suggests that there is
- 21:09a long-standing severe disease
- 21:11especially suppose you have a bronchic
- 21:14cases you get clubbing and cyanosis if
- 21:17the disease is going to be severe you
- 21:19are going to get cyanosis and in
- 21:20addition to this from head to foot all
- 21:22the vitamin deficiencies you try to tell
- 21:25about that no signs of vitamin
- 21:26deficiency and related to the
- 21:28respiratory system the ears are
- 21:30important no discharge from the ears
- 21:32mouth is important how is the throat and
- 21:34tonsils and is there any cleft lip or
- 21:37cleft palate because that can cause
- 21:38aspiration dentitions are fine make sure
- 21:41that you talk about the BCG Mark the BCG
- 21:44Mark is present
- 21:45and uh
- 21:48and the BCG Mark gives protection from
- 21:51severe forms which we have already told
- 21:53sometimes man to Mark might be there in
- 21:56the arm where you have to look into the
- 21:58induration not the erythema more than 10
- 22:01millimeter is considered a significant
- 22:03it only suggests that the child has been
- 22:05exposed to prior to TBC life okay
- 22:10okay coming to the respiratory system
- 22:13examination very important part here
- 22:17so you start with nose do not straight
- 22:20away go with the inspection start with
- 22:22the upper Airway nose is normal no
- 22:25flaring of the Allen ACI then go to the
- 22:27oral cavity oral cavity and throw
- 22:29tonsils are normal
- 22:31inspection start with the turkey and
- 22:34turkey is in the midline the apical
- 22:36impulse you have to talk about and the
- 22:38chest shape is a circular or normal in
- 22:41shape there is no use of accessory
- 22:43muscles but some subcostal recessions
- 22:47are present no nasal flaring is present
- 22:50and no scars sinuses or veins over the
- 22:53chest scene apical impulse I am not able
- 22:55to make out in the inspection okay
- 22:58then finally you look into the movements
- 23:00movements appear decreased on the right
- 23:03side okay so this will be your
- 23:04inspection you can also comment in the
- 23:07spine also from the looking at the back
- 23:09how is the back any type of scoliosis is
- 23:11there or not then comes to the palpation
- 23:13where you are going to confirm about the
- 23:16tracheal and the apical impulse okay we
- 23:19need to assure there is no mediastinal
- 23:21shift okay so apical impulse is in the
- 23:24fourth intercostal space along the Met
- 23:25clavicular line usually for children
- 23:27it's going to be in the fourth
- 23:28interpersonal space then Takia is in the
- 23:31midline okay and chest expansion is
- 23:34decreased on the right side so you are
- 23:36going to confirm by the palpatory method
- 23:39that the chest expansion is decreased on
- 23:41the right side and you look into the
- 23:43vocal parameters so you cannot ask the
- 23:45child so it may not be done and any of
- 23:48an auscultation you are going to confirm
- 23:50with ocal resonance so okal remittance
- 23:52could not be done you can see no issues
- 23:54then on percussion the note is impact
- 23:58third or dull over the right memory
- 24:01right infra axillary and right infras
- 24:03capular areas okay so there is a
- 24:06dullness impaired dullness it's not
- 24:08store needle it's impaired dullness over
- 24:10the right memory right infra axillary
- 24:12and the right infrascapular areas and
- 24:15the cardiac Apex is normally placed okay
- 24:18cardiac Apex is normally placed in the
- 24:21fourth intercostal space along the mid
- 24:22clavicular line on auscultation I am
- 24:25able to make out first you talk about
- 24:27the bronchial breath sounds if any on
- 24:29the right memory right axillary and the
- 24:31right interscapular areas occasional
- 24:33gravitations are also present no other
- 24:36added sounds and local resonance is
- 24:39increased in the those areas vocal
- 24:42resonance is increased so bronchial
- 24:43breath zones are heard some crepitations
- 24:45are made out no other added zones are
- 24:48there and vocal resonance is also
- 24:50increased in the same areas so coming to
- 24:54uh one by one so apical impulse and
- 24:57tracheal position is very important as I
- 24:59already said it says that the medials
- 25:01there is no mediastinal shift if there
- 25:04is going to be a pneumothorax or pleural
- 25:07effusion the epical impulse and turkey
- 25:09position is automatically going to shift
- 25:11to the opposite side okay and trails
- 25:14sign suggests it's nothing but what is
- 25:16Trail sign so the stenocular mastoid
- 25:19looks prominent on the side where the
- 25:21trachea moves so that is tracing so it's
- 25:23inspector finding okay and this uh
- 25:28severe pneumonia and very severe
- 25:30pneumonia on inspection you try to make
- 25:33sure the accessory muscles the nasal
- 25:36flaring the head bobbing is there or not
- 25:38so these things suggest that it's not
- 25:41just a pneumonia pneumonia means only
- 25:43the fast breathing once the other things
- 25:45like this retractions are this subcostal
- 25:47retractions nasal flaring head bobbing
- 25:50which are this way severe pneumonia okay
- 25:52and the child needs immediate Intensive
- 25:54Care Management and decrease the
- 25:57movement on the right side whenever
- 25:59movement is decreased on one side the
- 26:01pathology is on that side so you
- 26:03remember that whenever you talk about
- 26:04movements decreased on one side it means
- 26:06that the pathology is on that side
- 26:08always okay and the chest expansion is
- 26:12uh decreased here
- 26:14and with regards to consolidation
- 26:17remember this is a all the findings
- 26:19which you have told is suggestive of
- 26:21consolidation or pneumonia where which
- 26:23will have a dull note on percussion it's
- 26:26going to be dull note and your vocal
- 26:28resonance and vocal parameters is going
- 26:30to be increased and you are going to get
- 26:32bronchial breath sounds in the uh
- 26:34consolidation
- 26:36but with regards to plural effusion
- 26:38where it's going to be Stony Delon
- 26:40percussion it's going to be Stony Bell
- 26:42on percussion remember it's like a
- 26:44curtain it's like a curtain plural
- 26:46efficient or nemothorax it's like a
- 26:48curtain in the pleura and nothing is
- 26:49going to be heard so your breath sounds
- 26:51are going to be diminished the local
- 26:53resonance local parameters is going to
- 26:55be decreased in plural effusion and
- 26:58pneumothorax but on percussion in plural
- 27:01effusion it's going to be Stony dull and
- 27:03in pneumothorax it's going to be hyper
- 27:05resonant okay so remember this
- 27:07differences and in bronchopneumonia it's
- 27:11like a diffuse bilateral involvement so
- 27:13you will be hearing in addition to the
- 27:15repetitions visas also will be in
- 27:18involved because the bronchus is
- 27:20involved and it is going to be a diffuse
- 27:22so both the lungs you will have findings
- 27:24it will not be localized to one side so
- 27:26bronchi will be there so these are the
- 27:28important findings in addition to the
- 27:31abdominal examination is normal as
- 27:33abdomen is soft with no tenderness no
- 27:35ergonomically sometimes liver can be
- 27:37palpable especially where you have a
- 27:39hyper inflated chest so you can have
- 27:42some amount of liver being palpable
- 27:44cardiovascular system examination is
- 27:47normal as S1 S2 is heard normal and no
- 27:49murmurs are there in central nervous
- 27:52system revealed that except for the
- 27:54irritability otherwise everything is
- 27:55fine and make sure that there are no
- 27:57meningeal signs because sometimes the
- 27:58pneumonia can spread causing meningitis
- 28:00okay
- 28:01so the summary of the findings are
- 28:05here is Manju one year old female child
- 28:08presented with fever cough and fast
- 28:10breathing for the past four to six days
- 28:12with no contact history for tuberculosis
- 28:15on physical examination there is fever
- 28:17tachypnea with subcostal retractions
- 28:20decreased movements on the right side
- 28:21along with dullness on percussion on the
- 28:23right lower chest region infra axillary
- 28:26and infrascapular areas and bronchial
- 28:28breathing on the right side and
- 28:30occasional reputations are seen
- 28:33so my provisional diagnosis it's a lower
- 28:36respiratory tract infection probably
- 28:38severe right lower severe right lower
- 28:41pneumonia etiology probably being
- 28:44streptococcus pneumonia with moderate
- 28:46acute malnutrition okay sometimes maybe
- 28:49you may not uh say exact etiology they
- 28:52might be offended you can just stop with
- 28:54lower respiratory tract infection
- 28:56probably it is a right lower pneumonia
- 29:00with moderate acute malnutrition and as
- 29:03per a human say criteria you can say
- 29:05that it is
- 29:07severe pneumonia okay
- 29:10so investigations what investigations
- 29:12you are going to do CBC peripherals me a
- 29:15CRP and blood culture but blood culture
- 29:17you may not get so much yield and CBC
- 29:19you will have a neutrophilic predominant
- 29:22leukocytosis okay and uh peripheral
- 29:25smear might show the toxic granules
- 29:27suggest your bacterial infection CRP may
- 29:29be elevated but blood culture yield is
- 29:31low and the chest x-ray chest x-ray will
- 29:34show the air bronchogram and if a plural
- 29:37effusion is there obliteration of the
- 29:39cost of running angles can be seen
- 29:41mantle test is one important test to
- 29:43rule out the prior exposure to the TB
- 29:46Baseline so remember the induration is
- 29:48important not the erythema and the
- 29:50horizontally you have to check whether
- 29:52it is more than 10 millimeter and if
- 29:54possible if sputum is there if when you
- 29:57can do the gram staining in the culture
- 30:00most important investigation coming to
- 30:03the important discussion points very
- 30:05important in desperately they will ask
- 30:07you this imnc flowchart remember this
- 30:09imancya flowchart
- 30:10uh understand the general danger signs
- 30:13is the child able to drink or breastfeed
- 30:16does the child vomit everything out and
- 30:19does the child have convulsions and is
- 30:21the child lethargic or unconscious if
- 30:23anything is there any danger sign is
- 30:25there automatically it's going to become
- 30:27a very severe disease pink category and
- 30:31immediate referral okay so these are the
- 30:33dangerous signs pink category
- 30:35immediately refer originally to the
- 30:37hospital
- 30:38then you count the breads for one minute
- 30:42and look for any chest in drawing see
- 30:44whether any Strider is there and as per
- 30:47the imancy criteria I said for two
- 30:49months to 12 months it's going to be 50
- 30:50breaths per minute and for 12 months up
- 30:53to five years it's going to be 40
- 30:55breaths per minute for the tachypnea so
- 30:57if any fast breathing is there it's
- 30:59going to be pneumonia give amoxicillin
- 31:01for five days if there is going to be
- 31:03fast breathing press chest in drawing or
- 31:06Strider then it's going to be severe
- 31:08pneumonia if there is going to be
- 31:10General danger sign also then it's going
- 31:12to be very severe disease so give an
- 31:14injectable and immediately refer
- 31:16urgently to the hospital okay and some
- 31:19questions about community acquired
- 31:21pneumonia
- 31:23hospitalization so remember uh if just
- 31:27fast breathing is not enough there need
- 31:29to be a lot of retractions and accessory
- 31:31muscle involvement uh head bobbing Alan
- 31:35SI flaring grunting and lethargy and
- 31:38shock these are all suggests the
- 31:39indication for hospitalization or very
- 31:42poor intake then spo2 saturation pulse
- 31:45ox if you available spo2 if the
- 31:47saturation is less than 92 percentage of
- 31:49improvement then it is also indication
- 31:51for hospitalization important
- 31:54etiological agents remember bacteria is
- 31:56going to be streptococcus pneumoniae
- 31:57staph aureus and H influenza H
- 32:00influencer has become rare because of
- 32:02the vaccination pneumococcal vaccination
- 32:04if you have taken the pneumonia is also
- 32:06going to be a bit less incident
- 32:08staff or yes yes it's always there in
- 32:11the especially when there is
- 32:15then it is tap or yes and viruses very
- 32:19common etiology especially in the six
- 32:22months to six years RSV influence and
- 32:24para influenza and more than five years
- 32:26school going children atypical organisms
- 32:28like mycoplasma and chlamydia remember
- 32:30that staff warriors specialty is
- 32:33remember employment remember staff
- 32:35warriors nematocells remember staph
- 32:37aureus and as a complication for measles
- 32:39you get staphys influence are very
- 32:42common for less than three years and
- 32:44that also because of the immunization it
- 32:45has come down and atypical organism
- 32:48specialty is they have few physical
- 32:50signs it's called Walking Pneumonia they
- 32:53will be comfortable but once you take
- 32:54the chest x-ray you realize that there
- 32:56is a huge bronchopneumonia so atypical
- 32:59organisms few physical signs on loan
- 33:01will be there treatment oxygen IV fluids
- 33:04and nebulization if whis is there go for
- 33:06immobilization or antibiotics
- 33:08antibiotics do not say any Hi-Fi
- 33:11antibiotics it's going to be amoxicillin
- 33:13or cotrimoxazole for five days and if
- 33:15you suspect staff then you can add
- 33:17amoxiclav or amoxicillin plus
- 33:19cloxacillin if the child needs admission
- 33:23still it's going to be IV ampicillin or
- 33:26IV
- 33:27amoxicillin if staff you suspect it's
- 33:29going to be amoxiclav or oxacillin still
- 33:32not responding then only go for the
- 33:34third generation cephalosporine don't go
- 33:36straight away for chapter action coming
- 33:38to tuberculosis discussion points
- 33:41now it's not rntcp it is now called ntep
- 33:45National TB elimination program okay
- 33:48previously it was only smear microscopy
- 33:51for AFB so sputum you do microscopy for
- 33:54acid fast Baseline but now we have moved
- 33:56on to molecular methods so you have to
- 33:59tell all this rapid nucleic acid
- 34:01amplification test net so rapid nna CC
- 34:05so two hours you are going to get the
- 34:07report so it can be true net or Gene
- 34:09expert it's a higher sensitivity than
- 34:12your just mere microscopy and one
- 34:14advantage is refumbing resistance will
- 34:16also be said in that itself okay and
- 34:19nowadays we also do if refumbent
- 34:21resistance is seen or if the patient
- 34:24comes after
- 34:26discontinuing defaulter then you can
- 34:30also do the line Pro buses to test for
- 34:33reform facing inh and other second line
- 34:35drug resistance so now here is a
- 34:38possibility where you get the values for
- 34:40resistance very easily so there is no
- 34:43need to have a separate category for
- 34:45defaulter so now as for NDP there is
- 34:48only one category okay that I will tell
- 34:51so so the now the mandatory is nucleic
- 34:55acid amplification test that is Gene
- 34:57expert or tree nut for every patient
- 35:00where a biological specimen can be
- 35:02produced so if there is a biological
- 35:04specimen you have to submit for net
- 35:07so Universal drug sensitivity testing so
- 35:10once Nat is applied since reform pin
- 35:13resistance is automatically part of nat
- 35:15so Universal drug sensitivity testing is
- 35:18also being done
- 35:19and daily drugs previously it was
- 35:21alternate day drugs now it's daily drugs
- 35:24with fixer dose combination for children
- 35:26so it's going to be a fixer dose there
- 35:28is no weight per kg basis kg per day
- 35:31basis it's going to be a fixed drug dose
- 35:34and you have six weight bands If the
- 35:36child Falls in that big band that fix up
- 35:38those combination is going to be given
- 35:40and the dosage remember hrzd okay for
- 35:44two months followed by hre for four
- 35:46months previously when you we used to
- 35:48read there was no Ethan but all so now
- 35:50for maintenance hre is also being given
- 35:53for four months plus they suggest to add
- 35:55a pyroduction because of the inh
- 35:57neurotoxicity so 10 mg per day paradoxin
- 36:00can be given and for preventive
- 36:03treatment Suppose there is a family
- 36:04member who has household contact has TB
- 36:07on treatment you have to give for a
- 36:10child less than five years uh first find
- 36:13out that there is no TB in the child and
- 36:15give ins 10 energy per kg per day for
- 36:18six months so that is relative therapy
- 36:21so this flowchart not need not remember
- 36:24fully so you need to know when will you
- 36:27suspect tuberculosis so persistent fever
- 36:29for more than two weeks very important
- 36:31so the fever should be more than two
- 36:33weeks if the cough may not may or may
- 36:37not be present for two weeks weight loss
- 36:39of five percent may or may not be
- 36:41present or failure to gain weight for
- 36:43the past three months these are all
- 36:44extra but most important will be fever
- 36:47should be present for more than two
- 36:48weeks to suspect TB along with maybe
- 36:51cough may be present for two weeks
- 36:53weight loss may be present of five
- 36:55percent or the child is not gaining
- 36:56weight for the past three months despite
- 36:58adequate nutrition and with or without
- 37:01contact still contact may or may not be
- 37:03present and the first step is do a chest
- 37:05x-ray if chest x-ray is suggest you of
- 37:08TB then go for the net go for the true
- 37:11net or Gene expert if Nat is positive
- 37:13straight away start the treatment if
- 37:16there is non-specific Shadows not
- 37:17suggestive of TB then give a course of
- 37:20antibiotics then again check the chest
- 37:22exercise till it persists then again you
- 37:24submit for Nat if not come positive then
- 37:27give the ATT so this is the protocol for
- 37:30TB
- 37:31and if you remember since you are in the
- 37:34covered era they will definitely ask
- 37:35some questions about covid-19 in
- 37:38children so covid-19 is the disease
- 37:41caused by the virus SARS
- 37:44coronavirus 2
- 37:46it doesn't affect much the children it's
- 37:49going to be mild infection most often it
- 37:53might affect the immunosuppressed kids
- 37:54presentation will be just like any other
- 37:57viral infection the person with cough
- 37:58fever gastrointestinal symptoms running
- 38:00no sore throat nasal congestion rash
- 38:03conjunctivist loss of smell it's just
- 38:05like any other viral infection viral URI
- 38:08and uh in during the time of pandemic
- 38:11you have to suspect that's all and do
- 38:13the RT PCR by mesopharyngeal Swap and
- 38:16oropharyngeal swap which is a viral
- 38:18nucleic acid where we detect the RNA
- 38:21and some laboratory parameters
- 38:22suggesting of code is lymphopenia and
- 38:25increased inflammatory markers like CRP
- 38:27ESR procalcitonic increased CPK and sgot
- 38:32is GPT LDH and d diamond so some
- 38:34inflammatory markers and the CPK and
- 38:36sgot sgpt LDH and D dimer may be
- 38:39increased Imaging chest exercise
- 38:41remember to talk about bilateral ground
- 38:43glass opacities supportive care not much
- 38:46available just oxygen if too much
- 38:48distress only approved drug available
- 38:50and presentation
- 38:52vaccination is also not approved for
- 38:55children so far and it's at present only
- 38:58for the 18 years of above only possible
- 39:00so vaccination also not possible and
- 39:03they might ask you maybe just one point
- 39:04if you are good enough you are talking
- 39:06lot of good so multi-system inflammatory
- 39:08syndrome for covid which is similar to
- 39:11Kawasaki disease where you have fever
- 39:13with inflammation with multi-system
- 39:15involvement so fever will be there
- 39:17inflammatory markers will be there crb
- 39:19ESR and ferritin will be created okay
- 39:22and multi-system involvement so you can
- 39:24have rash you can have conjunctivities
- 39:25you can have diarrhea okay but most
- 39:28important will be a history of SARS
- 39:31covered infection
- 39:33recently within the four weeks at
- 39:36present the uh the rtpc will be negative
- 39:39but recently there will be a history of
- 39:41infection it could be either the child
- 39:44would have suffered with a covet or it
- 39:46could be a contact with a strongly
- 39:48contact with a covered household contact
- 39:50or at present the antibody may be
- 39:53positive so this is about covert 19. I
- 39:55think I will stop with the presentation
- 39:58so mainly in RS they will concentrate
- 40:00especially the imnci so remember to read
- 40:04about the MNC criteria they will ask you
- 40:07lot of clinical findings so okay so they
- 40:09will ask you how will you say it as
- 40:10consolidation how will you say it as
- 40:12plural efficient Nemo correct so the
- 40:14clinical interpretation they might ask
- 40:15you lot of questions and the imsa
- 40:19criteria again okay thank you foreign
