Peds GI, Altered Fluid

Variations from the Adult
• Mechanical functions immature
– No voluntary control over swallowing until 6
weeks
– Stomach capacity decreased
– Peristalsis increased, faster emptying time
– Relaxed cardiac sphincter
• Liver functions immature
• Decreased production of antibodies lining mucosa
1
Variations from the Adult (cont)
• Digestive processes not mature until
toddlerhood
– Gastric acidity low until school age
– Decreased saliva & ability to digest
starches
• No voluntary control of elimination until
myelinization of spinal cord.

Categorization of Conditions
•
•
•
•
•
Developmental (congenital)
Problems w/motility
Inflammation or infections
Obstructive disorders
Malabsorption conditions

Fluid & Electrolyte Differences
•
•
•
•
•
Percent body water /total body weight
Infant higher percentage fluid ECF
Greater insensible loss
Renal function immature
Infants unable to communicate thirst
4
Maintenance Fluid
Requirements per 24 hours
• ≤ 10 Kg: 100 ml/kg/day
• 11-20 kg: 1,000 ml + 50 ml/kg/day
• >20 kg: 1500 ml + 20 ml/kg/day
5
Minimum Urine Output
• Infants, toddlers
– >2-3 ml/kg/hr
• Preschool, young school-age
– >1-2 ml/kg/hr
• Older school-age & Adolescent
– 0.5-1 ml/kg/hr
6
Etiology of Fluid Imbalances
(the “related to”)
• Imbalance of intake vs output
• Result: fluid volume deficit or fluid volume
excess
• Secondary to therapy or disease process
– All organ systems can be cause
7
Types of Dehydration
• Isonatremic
• Hyponatremic
• Hypernatremic
• Normal serum Na = 135-145 mEq/L

•
History of acute or chronic fluid loss
Serum electrolyte values
Clinical manifestations
Weight of the child

Cleft Lip and Palate
• CL: the lip does not completely form
during fetal development
• CP: Nonunion of the tissue & bone
hard/soft palate during embryologic
development.
12
Problems: cleft lip/palate
•
•
•
•
Feeding difficulties
Speech & language difficulties
Ear infection and hearing loss
Dental problems
13
Surgical Management
• Cheiloplasty: correction of cleft lip
– Functional & cosmetic
– age 3-6 mo (McKinney)
– “rule of 10s”: 10 weeks, 10 lbs, Hgb of 10
g/dL
• Palatoplasty: cleft palate repair
– 6 mo to 2 yrs (most: 1 year)
– Before speech
– Able to take liquids from cup
14
Nursing management: preop
• Feed in upright position
• Burp frequently, w/ periods of rest
• Large-holed nipple or rubber-tipped
syringe
• Finish feeding w/H2O
• Small, frequent feedings
• Emotional support
15
Nursing Diagnoses – Pre-op
Post-op cleft lip
• Patent airway
• Assess for hemorrhage
• Protect the operative site !!!
– No pressure on cheeks
– No prone position
– Elbow restraints
• Pain relief
• Feed when awake
• Keep site clean – prevent infection
17
Post-op cleft palate
Immediate post-op goals
•
Airway
– OK to be on side or abdomen – drain secretions
• Pain
• Prevent injury to suture site
18
Instructions to Mother
Risk for injury to surgical site
• Progress diet
• Only cups for liquids
• Provide soft toys
• Elbow restraints
• Cleanse mouth after eating
• No rough play
19
Long-term care CP
Team approach
• Hearing evaluation
• Speech & language therapy
• Dentist, orthodontist
• Plastic & maxilofacial surgeon
• Social worker
20
Other Developmental
Gastrointestinal Defects
• Esophageal atresia with tracheoesophageal
fistula
• Imperforate anus
• Gastroschisis
• Omphalocele
• Umbilical or diaphragmatic hernia
F
21
GER
• Physiologic
• Functional
– Painless, frequent emesis after meals
– No failure to thrive
– 40% asymptomatic by 3 months
– 70% asymptomatic by 18 months
– Medical management very effective
22

Diet
Positioning
Lifestyle change
