OK guys .....last Saturday lectures...we encounter three lectures in all which covers ethics and clinical managements....all about paeds....
okay guysss....here is the promised summary for the lectures presented...
first day in the morning..lecture from the court council regarding law on children..the presentation was done by the staffs from the court council itself and basically ..
children for as long as they are a child...hm mm forgot the age group are protected under the law as not to do harm when we (nurses) are treating them. consent from parents should be obtained and their attendance during examination should be considered..
i think we already know this but we just don't know that there are laws that actually mentioned about children in Brunei....mm i know i don't!
About 10.30am...another lecture by Dr. Wilson Chong from the AED regarding Paed resuscitation...you should look;
1.Resp rate (more than 60/min is abnormal)
2.Spo2 (90% below is abnormal)
3.HR (85-190/min) for child below 2 years...and gets even less as they grow..
4.BP (mind the cuff!!, in AE the cuff mostly are for adults and u know adult cuff affect BP result in child!!)
5.Urine output (very common in children as they easily get UTIs...and other illnesses)
the BP measurement differs in children (payah kan xplain! hehe) ok for urine output.. 1.5m-2 ml/kg/hour for child infants and younger child.
older child and adolescent 1ml/kg/hour.
p/s resp arrest = cardiac arrest in children!
the 3rd lecture was presented by Dr.Suresh from the paed team....his lecture was very interesting but to consider its application in AE setting, it can be futile.
there u go guys....
