Download or read book Knee complaints in growing children written by Sics Editore and published by SICS Editore. This book was released on 2014-10-01 with total page 43 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Knee problems in children are encountered regularly by primary care physicians. It is important to carry out a thorough clinical examination. Referred pain from a back or hip disease should be excluded during the examination. The need for further investigations depends on the degree of clinical signs present. Most knee problems in growing children – often vaguely associated with exercise or physical activity – are so mild that they do not cause functional impairment. However, a significant mechanical defect, an overuse injury or arthritis may be suspected if the pain makes the patient limp continuously or limits sports activities, or if the patient describes mechanical locking of the knee or, for example, dislocation of the patella. The affected knee should be compared with the contralateral knee. Positive clinical signs include the following: limited range of motion, instability, effusion, synovial swelling, other swelling or deformity, differences in temperature (heat or coolness), atrophy of thigh muscles, local tenderness in sites typical of overuse injuries, asymmetrical tenderness during patellofemoral compression, continuous limping and a side-to-side difference when squatting on one leg.

Book excerpt: The principal treatment responsibility of pain patients lies with the primary health care. Specialists are consulted with when necessary. A good treatment relationship with the own family doctor is fundamental in the treatment of chronic pain. The tasks in the primary health care include clinical examination of pain patients (history and physical examination), complemented if necessary with further tests available in the primary care, with the aim of identifying the type of pain (nociceptive, neuropathic, other) diagnosing the underlying disease causing the pain mapping of the psychosocial background factors that may contribute to the pain becoming chronic: the patient’s own view of the pain and its significance, the patient’s mood using DEPS screening, occupational and family situation, use of alcohol or drugs causal or symptomatic treatment of pain according to the local agreements concerning the division of responsibilities between primary and specialised care. Patients with moderate or severe pain that is prolonged despite treatment attempts in the primary care should be referred to specialised care. Pain is documented on every visit by using a visual analogue scale (VAS) for pain (0–10) or a numerical rating scale (NRS; 0–10). Rehabilitation is arranged for patients with poor treatment response to help with adapting to and coping with the symptoms.
Book Synopsis Joint and ligament injuries in children by : Sics Editore

Book Synopsis Interpretation of ECG in children by : Sics Editore
Download or read book Interpretation of ECG in children written by Sics Editore and published by SICS Editore. This book was released on 2014-10-01 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ECG must always be interpreted in respect to the age of the child. Modern recorders of twelve lead ECG often give a summary of the findings. The reliability of the interpretation varies markedly depending on the reference values used. The interpretation may be misleading, especially when the rhythm is evaluated. The summary often includes a comment like "possible hypertrophy". This may be due to high voltage measured in the recording of a single lead. Thus, the physician must always evaluate the ECG as an entity. Because of large individual variation and changes occurring with age the reference intervals are rather wide. ECG in children is not a very sensitive and accurate method for evaluating, for example, ventricular hypertrophy.
