Page 5: BBWS Resp disorders in children - University of Kansas ... disorders in children (1...Respiratory Disorders in Children ... • Pleural effusion‐generally self ... Okelo SO, et al

Case 1

A 5 year old male presents to an urgent care clinic complaining of cough and difficulty breathing. His mother states this started after he got sick last week, and he is not getting better. Your examination reveals HR 120, RR 28, SpO2 91%. The child has diminished breath sounds in both lung bases and wheezes throughout. He also has subcostal and supraclavicular retractions. The remainder of his examination is normal.

Page 6: BBWS Resp disorders in children - University of Kansas ... disorders in children (1...Respiratory Disorders in Children ... • Pleural effusion‐generally self ... Okelo SO, et al

Asthma

• Lower respiratory disease characterized by exaggerated bronchoconstriction (airway hyperresponsiveness)

• Also associated with airway inflammation/edema and increased mucus

• Wide variety of phenotypes and triggers• Significant variance in prevalence across states, cities, and neighborhoods

Page 7: BBWS Resp disorders in children - University of Kansas ... disorders in children (1...Respiratory Disorders in Children ... • Pleural effusion‐generally self ... Okelo SO, et al

Acute Asthma Exacerbation

• Supplemental oxygen‐ administer when oxygen saturation is consistently <91%, wean when >94%

• Short acting inhaled beta2 agonists (albuterol)‐administer for rapid relief of bronchoconstriction– Can give every 10‐20 minutes for initial therapy (no clinical difference between MDI and nebulizer) 

– Alternative method includes continuous albuterol

Page 8: BBWS Resp disorders in children - University of Kansas ... disorders in children (1...Respiratory Disorders in Children ... • Pleural effusion‐generally self ... Okelo SO, et al

Acute Asthma Exacerbation

• Inhaled ipratropium bromide (Atrovent, Duonebs)‐ up to 3 doses in urgent care or emergency department setting can reduce need for hospitalization

• Corticosteroids‐ 1‐2mg/kg/day of prednisone, prednisolone, or methylprednisolone

• RESPONSE to initial treatment is the best measure of severity and predictor of disposition

Page 9: BBWS Resp disorders in children - University of Kansas ... disorders in children (1...Respiratory Disorders in Children ... • Pleural effusion‐generally self ... Okelo SO, et al

Acute Asthma Exacerbation

• Before leaving the hospital, ED, or clinic, make sure the patient has:– Asthma Action Plan– Daily controller medications if indicated– Follow up in place

• Avoid:  “routine” x‐rays, chest physiotherapy, incentive spirometry, mucolytics

Page 10: BBWS Resp disorders in children - University of Kansas ... disorders in children (1...Respiratory Disorders in Children ... • Pleural effusion‐generally self ... Okelo SO, et al

Case 1, Continued

The same child now presents to your clinic for a 7 year old well child examination. His growth and development have been normal, and he denies any recent asthma exacerbations. He takes an inhaled corticosteroid daily and albuterol as needed. His mother asks how long he will need to continue his daily medication.

Page 11: BBWS Resp disorders in children - University of Kansas ... disorders in children (1...Respiratory Disorders in Children ... • Pleural effusion‐generally self ... Okelo SO, et al

Long Term Asthma Management

• First step:  Determine asthma control– Peak flow measurements– Standardized questionnaires for patient and parent

• What are the patient’s specific triggers?

Long Term Asthma Management

• If poorly controlled– Assess adherence to medications– Look at inhaler technique– Think about environmental control

• THEN step up medical therapy– PRACTALL, NAEPP EP3, ERS Task Force, GINA all have similar recommendations in guidelines

Long Term Asthma Management

• If well controlled, don’t forget to STEP DOWN!• Follow up to discuss control again in few months

• Don’t forget the Asthma Action Plan before they go

Page 17: BBWS Resp disorders in children - University of Kansas ... disorders in children (1...Respiratory Disorders in Children ... • Pleural effusion‐generally self ... Okelo SO, et al

Case 2

A 10 month old female presents for an office visit with a chief complaint of cough. She also has a runny nose and fever with Tmax 101.3F.On examination, you note tachypnea, copious clear nasal discharge, and moderate retractions. Lung auscultation reveals transmitted upper airway sounds and scattered wheezes.

Page 18: BBWS Resp disorders in children - University of Kansas ... disorders in children (1...Respiratory Disorders in Children ... • Pleural effusion‐generally self ... Okelo SO, et al

Bronchiolitis

• Commonly caused by viral lower respiratory tract infection

• Characterized by acute inflammation, edema, and necrosis of epithelial cells with increased mucus

• Screen for risk factors for severe disease:– <3 months of age– History of prematurity– Underlying cardiopulmonary disease– Immunodeficiency

Page 19: BBWS Resp disorders in children - University of Kansas ... disorders in children (1...Respiratory Disorders in Children ... • Pleural effusion‐generally self ... Okelo SO, et al

Bronchiolitis

• Clinical diagnosis only• Treatment is entirely supportive

– Should not administer albuterol, corticosteroids, or epinephrine

– Can consider nebulized hypertonic saline in hospitalized children

• Supplemental oxygen if persistently less than 90% SpO2; no need for continuous pulse oximetry USUALLY

Page 20: BBWS Resp disorders in children - University of Kansas ... disorders in children (1...Respiratory Disorders in Children ... • Pleural effusion‐generally self ... Okelo SO, et al

Case 2, continued

How might management change if this patient was 10 weeks old instead of 10 months?

What if they had a strong personal or family history of atopy?

Page 21: BBWS Resp disorders in children - University of Kansas ... disorders in children (1...Respiratory Disorders in Children ... • Pleural effusion‐generally self ... Okelo SO, et al

Case 3

A 3 year old male presents to clinic for persistence of severe cold symptoms. Initial URI symptoms began 1‐2 weeks ago, and cough has now worsened over the last 2 days. Patient is now having fevers daily up to 103F and has decreased activity and PO intake.

Page 22: BBWS Resp disorders in children - University of Kansas ... disorders in children (1...Respiratory Disorders in Children ... • Pleural effusion‐generally self ... Okelo SO, et al

Case 4

A 14 year old female presents with a 1 week history of low grade fevers (Tmax 100.9F), cough, and fatigue. She has still been able to complete homework assignments, but her mother is concerned that her cold is not getting better yet.

Page 23: BBWS Resp disorders in children - University of Kansas ... disorders in children (1...Respiratory Disorders in Children ... • Pleural effusion‐generally self ... Okelo SO, et al

Pneumonia

• Occurs in about 2.6% children younger than 17 years in the United States

• Lower respiratory tract infection with fever, respiratory symptoms, and evidence of parenchymal involvement by physical exam or radiography

• Inflammatory process of lungs including airways, alveoli, connective tissue, visceral pleura and vascular strictures

Page 24: BBWS Resp disorders in children - University of Kansas ... disorders in children (1...Respiratory Disorders in Children ... • Pleural effusion‐generally self ... Okelo SO, et al

Pneumonia

• Presentation can vary, and symptoms can be nonspecific and subtle

• Fever and cough are hallmarks• Also need some evidence of respiratory impairment (nasal flaring, retractions, hypoxia, tachypnea) and evidence of infiltrate (crackles, rales, decreased breath sounds, egophony, tactile fremitus, dullness to percussion)

• Radiating neck pain and vague abdominal pain  are also fairly common

Page 25: BBWS Resp disorders in children - University of Kansas ... disorders in children (1...Respiratory Disorders in Children ... • Pleural effusion‐generally self ... Okelo SO, et al

Pneumonia

• Viral pneumonia (60% of childhood pneumonias)– More likely to have insidious onset and more mild course

– More likely to have wheezing– Diffuse changes in lung exam

• Bacterial pneumonia– Likely more abrupt onset with more severe symptoms

– More likely to develop complications

Page 26: BBWS Resp disorders in children - University of Kansas ... disorders in children (1...Respiratory Disorders in Children ... • Pleural effusion‐generally self ... Okelo SO, et al

Pneumonia

Chest radiograph in limited situations:• Severe disease requiring hospitalization• Inconclusive clinical findings• Rule out other causes of respiratory distress (ex, foreign body, heart disease)

• Prolonged fever/worsening symptoms despite appropriate treatment

• Workup of  young infant with fever without a source

Page 27: BBWS Resp disorders in children - University of Kansas ... disorders in children (1...Respiratory Disorders in Children ... • Pleural effusion‐generally self ... Okelo SO, et al

Pneumonia

• Follow up chest films are NOT indicated in children who are treated and recovered

• Follow up chest films ARE indicated for complicated pneumonias that are clinically unstable

• CBC with differential is indicated if the patient is to be hospitalized; it does NOT help with differentiation of viral and bacterial pneumonia

• Acute phase reactants also can be helpful for hospitalized patients

Page 28: BBWS Resp disorders in children - University of Kansas ... disorders in children (1...Respiratory Disorders in Children ... • Pleural effusion‐generally self ... Okelo SO, et al

Pneumonia

• Young children‐more likely to be lobar pneumonia– S. pneumoniae is still the most common pathogen– High dose amoxicillin should be adequate for most cases

– Clavulanic acid adds additional action against H. influenza and M. catarrhalis

• School aged children and teens‐more likely to be atypical pneumonia– M. pneumoniae is the most common in this group– Consider use of a macrolide in this group (3‐5 day course of azithromycin or clarithromycin)

Page 29: BBWS Resp disorders in children - University of Kansas ... disorders in children (1...Respiratory Disorders in Children ... • Pleural effusion‐generally self ... Okelo SO, et al

Pneumonia

• Antiviral treatment‐ if influenza is strongly suspected, you may initiate treatment immediately

• Inpatient management– Ampicillin/sulbactam or ceftriaxone for lobar pneumonia

– Add vancomycin, linezolid, or clindamycin if there is another comorbidity or reason to suspect S aureus

• 7‐10 day total course is generally adequate

Page 30: BBWS Resp disorders in children - University of Kansas ... disorders in children (1...Respiratory Disorders in Children ... • Pleural effusion‐generally self ... Okelo SO, et al

Pneumonia

• Pleural effusion‐ generally self resolves, but warrants additional monitoring

• Empyema‐ purulent effusion; association with S aureus, S pneumoniae, and H influenzae

• Pneumatocele‐ classically occurs with S aureus, may involute spontaneously or require surgery

Page 34: BBWS Resp disorders in children - University of Kansas ... disorders in children (1...Respiratory Disorders in Children ... • Pleural effusion‐generally self ... Okelo SO, et al

Pneumonia

• Necrotizing pneumonia‐ rare, prolonged fever and septic appearance with radiolucent lesion on X‐ray, confirmed with CT

• Lung abscess‐ be mindful of risk factors like airway obstruction or lung anomalies

• Hyponatremia‐ from SIADH

Page 37: BBWS Resp disorders in children - University of Kansas ... disorders in children (1...Respiratory Disorders in Children ... • Pleural effusion‐generally self ... Okelo SO, et al

Summary

• Asthma– Acute exacerbations should have albuterol and corticosteroids immediately

– Increasing/decreasing medical intervention should be routine at all clinical encounters

– Asthma Control Tests or other standardized assessments have been shown to help with this

Page 38: BBWS Resp disorders in children - University of Kansas ... disorders in children (1...Respiratory Disorders in Children ... • Pleural effusion‐generally self ... Okelo SO, et al

Summary

• Bronchiolitis– Clinical diagnosis– Supportive care ONLY despite our wanting to do more!

– Be mindful of additional risk factors

Page 39: BBWS Resp disorders in children - University of Kansas ... disorders in children (1...Respiratory Disorders in Children ... • Pleural effusion‐generally self ... Okelo SO, et al

Summary

• Pneumonia– Most cases are still viral– No need for blood tests or imaging in most outpatient encounters

– High dose amoxicillin for lobar pneumonias, azithromycin for atypical

– Counseling families on return precautions is critical due to possibility of serious complications
