  1. Good Morning! Morning Report July 6, 2012

  2. Semantic Qualifiers

  3. Illness Script • Predisposing Conditions • Age, gender, preceding events (trauma, viral illness, etc), medication use, past medical history (diagnoses, surgeries, etc) • Pathophysiological Insult • What is physically happening in the body, organisms involved, etc. • Clinical Manifestations • Signs and symptoms • Labs and imaging

  4. Ultrasound

  5. Predisposing Conditions • 5:1 Male predominance • More common is 1st born (30% of cases) • Caucasian • Typically between the age of 2 weeks – 6 weeks • Family clustering • Erythromycin exposure in 1st 2 weeks of life

  6. Pathophysiology • True etiology unknown • Hypertrophy of the pyloric muscle that leads to gastric outlet constriction • Exposure to erythromycin (less so with other macrolides) • Increases risk 8-fold • Erythromycin interacts with smooth muscle motilin receptors • This causes strong gastric and pyloric contractions • Subsequent hypertrophy of the pyloric muscle

  7. Anatomy • Hypertrophy of the pylorus • Elongation and thickening • Progresses to near-complete obstruction

  8. Clinical Manifestations* • Vomiting • Non-bilious • Forceful/projectile • Progressive (increasing frequency) • Progression • Ravenously hungry  • Dehydrated/weight loss  • Lethargic • FTT • Jaundice • Palpable “olive” (up to 90%) • Peristaltic wave after eating • Electrolyte abnormalities

  9. Electrolytes • Metabolic alkalosis** • Decreased excretion into small intestine (increase in serum) • Decreased total body K+ leads to shift of K+ outside of cell in exchange for H+ • Increased re-absorption by kidney for fluid retentions (due to dehydration) • Hypochloremia* • Hypokalemia* (late finding) • Correction of electrolytes before surgery… • Correct dehydration (often with NS bolus) • If mild-moderate dehydration… • D5 ½ NS at correction rate, KCl once voids

  10. Diagnosis** • Primarily a clinical diagnosis • Ultrasound • Pyloric muscle thickness > 4mm • Pyloric muscle length > 14mm • 85-100% sensitivity and specificity • UGI • 89%-100% sensitive/specific • “string sign”, “double track”

  11. UGI

  12. Pyloromyotomy

  13. Thanks!! Noon Conference… Respiratory Failure by Costa 
