BronchitisBronchiolitis P447
Pneumonia P451
Long-term respiratory dysfunctionCystic fibrosis
Otitis medial P703 Inflammation of the middle ear.At least one episode by 6 years of age , with peak incidence at 2 yearsBoysWinter months.
Etiology and pathophysiology (1)
Eustachian tube equalizes air pressure between the middle ear and the outside environment and allows for drainage of secretions from middle ear mucosa. P691 圖19-1 Anatomical differences in the Eustachian tube between adult and small children ( short, wider, more horizontal ) . P691 圖 19-1Cause : unknown, but it appears to be related to Eustachian tube dysfunction P703 倒數第 3 行
Often an upper respiratory infection precedes the development of otitis medial. P703 倒數第 2 行
Etiology and pathophysiology (2)
Infection →the mucous membranes of the Eustachian tube to become edematous→Eustachian tube blocked →air in the middle ear is reabsorbed into the bloodstream→fluid is pulled from the mucosal lining into the former air space→infected. P703 最後 1 行 . Causative organisms : streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae . P704 第 1 段第 4 行Allergic rhinitis, cleft palate, Down syndrome. P704 第 2 段 Higher risk : crowded conditions, exposed to cigarette smoke, attend child care with multiple children.Breastfeeding provides protection.
Clinical manifestations Pulling at the ear 第 2行 Diarrhea, vomiting, and feverIrritability and “acting out” may be signs of a related hearing impairmentAsymptomatic ( some ) p705 第 1 行
Otoscopic examination. 第 1 段第 1 行Otitis medial : red, bulging, nonmobile tympanic membrane 圖 19-7
Otitis medial with effusion : fluid line or air bubbles 圖 19-8
Pneumatic otoscopy ( 氣式耳鏡 ) 第 3 行Special gradient acoustic reflectometry ( SGAR ) ( 聽覺反射傾斜度 )
Tympanogram ( 鼓室壓力圖 ) 第 2 段
Diagnostic tests
Medical management Acute and recurrent otitis media 第 3 段
Antibiotic therapy - wide spectrum antibiotics• Amoxicllin → Amoxicllin with clavulanate or cefuroxime
axetil→ ceftriaxome
Chronic otitis media with effusion 第 5 段→ result in sensorineural or conductive hearing loss and cochlear damage
AudiologyIf infection recurs → Myringotomy and tympanostomy tube 最後 1 段第 2 行Neither decongestants nor antihistamines 最後 1 段第 1 行
Nursing assessment p706
Assess tympanic membrane- color, transparency, mobility, presence of landmarks, and light reflex.Ask the parents if the child has had a fever, been fussy, or been pulling at the ears.Observe for signs of impaired hearing.
Nursing management P707 care plan
Pain InfectionRisk for caregiver role strainKnowledge deficit about infectionAltered growth and development
Etiology and pathophysiology An infection or inflammation ( hypertrophy ) of the palatine tonsils. P718
Most children with pharyngitis may have infected tonsils.May be caused by virus or bacterium. P719
Tonsillitis
Clinical manifestations Frequent throat infections with breathing and swallowing difficulties.Persistent redness of the anterior pillarsEnlargement of the cervical lymph nodesMucous membranes may become dry and irritated
Visual inspectionClinical manifestationsThroat culture
Diagnostic tests
Medical management Symptomatic treatment
Penicilline for 10 days ( or erythromycin )Tonsillectomy
3 per year for 3 yearsChronic tonsillitisObstructive sleep apneaMalformations causing nasal speech or a facial growth abnormality
If the pharyngeal tonsils are enlargedMouth breathing, cough, impaired taste and smell, a muffled quality to the voice, and chronic otitis media.
Nursing assessment
Assess the throatObserve for tonsilsPain or difficulty swallowingHistory
Nursing management P720 Supportive care ( symptomatic relief )Completion of the full course of treatment. ( 10-day )Acetaminophen reduces throat pain and generalized fever. P718
Cool, nonacidic fluids and soft foods, ice chips or frozen juice pops given frequently in small amounts facilitate swallowing and prevent dehydration.Humidification, chewing gum, and gargling with warm salt water soothe an irritated throat. Encourage the child to rest.
Nursing management
Before surgery P720 第 2 段Free of sore throat, fever, or URI for at least 1 week before surgery.Not be given aspirin or ibuprofen for 2 weeks before surgery.Check if any herbal medications are taken
After surgery局部用冷觀察嘔吐次數,可能早期出血的徵象避免不必要的擤鼻涕、咳嗽或清喉嚨術後採側臥或俯臥避免酸性飲料或辛辣食物,且避免使用吸管術後 1 ~ 2 週可恢復正常活動合併症— bleeding, infection, pain P720
Croup syndrom Swelling of the epiglottis and larynx. p427 第 1 段第 2 行 Viral syndromes and bacterial syndromes p429 Table13-5
Viral syndromes • Acute Spasmodic Laryngitis• Laryngotracheitis • Laryngotracheobronchitis (LTB)
Bacterial syndromes• Epiglottitis • Bacterial Tracheitis
Big three - LTB, epiglottis, and bacterial tracheitis p428 第 2
段 Stridor, seal-like barking cough, and hoarseness
Etiology and pathophysiologyViral invasionThroughout the larynx, trachea, and bronchiAge : 3 months to 4 years of ageBoys than girlsCause : Parainfluenze virus ( 75% )、 RS virus 、 Influenze virusAirway tissues produce copious, tenacious secretions and swelling. P429 第 1 段圖 13-5
Laryngotracheobronchitis ( LTB ) p428
Clinical manifestations
Tachypnea, inspiratory stridor, seal-like barking cough, and hoarseness Fever may or may be not present.
Diagnostic tests Clinical signsPulse oximetryAnteroposterior and lateral x-rays - steeple sign
HumidificationMedications P430 上表
Beta-agonists and beta-adrenergics• Aerosolized through face mask• Improvement in 30’ & lasts about 2 hours• Tachycardia & hypertension • Dizziness, headache, and nausea stop medication
Corticosteroids• IM, PO, Nebulized budesonide• CV symptoms• Stridor resolves faster
Oxygen
Medical management
Nursing management P431 Maintain airway patencyMeet fluid and nutritional needs
Epiglottitis ( Supraglottitis ) P431 Etiology and pathophysiology 第 1 段
An inflammation of the epiglottis.Edema can rapidly obstruct the airway by occluding the trachea. Potentially life-threateningCause : bacterial invasion of the soft tissue of the larynx 第 2段
StreptococcusStaphylococcusHaemophilus influenzae type B
Inflammation and edema → airway obstruction
Clinical manifestations 第 3段Suddenly becomes very illHigh fever (> 39oC )Sore throat4D ( Dysphonia 、 Dysphagia 、 Drooling 、 Distressed respiratory effort )StridorSits up and leans forward
Diagnostic tests P432 第 4 段Lateral neck x-ray Blood culture
圖 13-6
PS : Laryngospasm and airway obstruction → visual inspection of the mouth and throat is contraindicated
Medical management
On endotracheal tubeAntibioticsAntipyreticsHydrationHumidifies oxygen
Nursing management
Airway management 第 2 段Sit upright or assume a position of comfort to maintain the airway
Humidifies oxygen
Provide a quiet environment
Treat the infection and provide fluid to provide hydration 第 3 段Provide emotional support 第 4 段
Bacterial Tracheitis P433
Etiology and pathophysiology 第 1 段Senondary infection of the upper trachea after viral laryngotracheitis.Most caused by group A streptococcus or Haemophilus influenzae
Clinical manifestationsStarts with croupy cough and stridorHigh fever greater than 390C , persists for several days.Prefer lying flat to sitting up
Diagnostic tests Blood culture
Medical management•Antibiotics are given for a full 10-day course•Artificial airway and ventilatory support.
Nursing management Airway assessment and supportAirway maintenanceSuctioning as neededHumidified oxygenAntibioticsPreparation for resuscitation
Bronchiolitis P447
An infecting agent ( virus or bacterium ) causes inflammation and obstruction of the small airway, the bronchioles.
Infection occurs most frequently in toddlers and preschooers.
Etiology and pathophysiology
RSV is the most common cause.Direct or close contact with respiratory secretions of infected individuals. Viruses invade the mucosal cell→cell debris clogs and obstruct the bronchioles and irritates the airway. Partial airway obstruction and bronchospasms. →Wheezing & Crackles→respiration failure ( O2 ↓, CO2 ↑ )→ Apnea and pulmonary edemaThe noisier the lungs, the better. 第 3 段
Clinical manifestations URI symptoms- Nasal stuffiness, cough, and fever for a few days(< 39oC) → LRI symptoms- wheezing; a deeper, more frequent
cough; more labored breathing
Respirations are rapid, shallow, and accompanied by nasal flaring and retraction.Acting more ill- appearing sicker, less playful, and less interested in eating

Nursing care plan for the children with respiratory dysfunction
Ineffective breathing pattern related to increased work of breathing and decreased energy ( fatigue ) .Altered tissue perfusion ( cardiopulmonary ) related to partially obstructed airway.Risk for fluid volume deficit related to inability to meet body requirements and increased metabolic demand Fear/Anxiety ( child and parent ) related to acute illness, hospitalization, and uncertain course of illness and treatment .Knowledge deficit ( child and parent ) related to diagnosis, treatment, prognosis, and home care needs .High risk infectionPain活動無耐力營養狀況少於身體需求睡眠型態混亂
