PEDIATRIC ASSESSMENT Essentials for School Nurses Patti Lucarelli, MSN, RN, CPNP Jersey Shore University Medical Center K. Hovnanian Children’s Hospital Family Health Center Georgian Court University School of Nursing
Objectives • Understand the importance of Assessment and Triage and how they interplay in the Health Care Setting • Identify essential components of a “focused” Pediatric Assessment • Utilize the assessment information to differentiate between minor and more serious conditions (Triage) • Identify and implement nursing interventions based on the assessment and triage provided Sound Familiar?
Essential Pediatric Nursing Skills • • • Knowledge of Growth and Development of a Therapeutic Relationship Communication with children and their parents Understanding of family dynamics and parent-child relationships: IDENTIFY KEY FAMILY MEMBERS Knowledge of Health Promotion & Disease Prevention Patient Education and Anticipatory Guidance Practice of Therapeutic and Atraumatic Care Patient and Family Advocacy Caring, Supportive & Culturally Sensitive Interactions Coordination and Collaboration CRITICAL THINKING
Equipment What’s in Your setting? • Airway support equipment, Ambu-bags • Stethoscope & Sphygmomanometer • Pen Light • Pulse Ox & Cardiac Monitor • Nebulizer • Otoscope / Opthalmoscope • O 2
The single most important part of the health assessment is…… the
History Bio-graphic Demographic • • • Name, Date of Birth, Age Parents & siblings info Cultural practices Religious practices Parents’ occupations Adolescent – work info Past Medical History • Allergies • Past illness • Trauma / hospitalizations • Surgeries • Birth history • Developmental • Family Medical/Genetics Current Health Status • Immunization Status • Chronic illnesses or conditions • What concerns do you have today?
Review of Systems • Ask questions about each system • Measurements: weight, head circumference, growth chart, BMI • Nutrition: breastfed, formula, favorite foods, beverages, eating habits • Growth and Development: Milestones for each age group
History: Review of Systems • • Skin HEENT Neck Chest & Lungs / Respiratory • Heart & Cardiovascular • GI • GU & GYN • Musculoskeletal & Extremities • Neuro • Endocrine
Patti’s Nitty Gritty Trio • Sleep & Activity • Appetite • Bowel & Bladder • In a time crunch, these three questions should give you enough insight into the child’s general functioning – • Can get more detailed if any (+) responses
Components of a Focused Pediatric Assessment • Always ABCs! • PAT: Pediatric Assessment Triangle • Ongoing Triage – • Minor vs. • Serious vs. -Threatening Appearance Includes LOC & Behavior PAT Life • Problem- Focused Examination Breathing Changes Skin Circulation
PAT General Appearance Work of Breathing Circulation to the Skin
APPEARANCE Tone Interactiveness Consolability Look/gaze Speech/cry
Work of Breathing • Increased or Decreased Respirations • Stridor • Wheezing
Circulation to the Skin • Inadequate perfusion of vital organs • Leads to compensatory mechanisms in nonessential functions • Ex: vasoconstriction in the skin.
Initial Assessment (s) • Primary • Secondary • E = Exposure • A = Airway • F = Full Set of Vitals • B = Breathing • G = Give Comfort • C = Circulation Measures including Pain Assessment & Tx. • D = Disability • H = Head –to-Toe assessment & history • I = Inspect posterior surfaces – rashes, bruising
Physical Assessment • The approach is: • Orderly • Systematic • Head-to-toe • But FLEXIBILIY is essential • And be kind and gentle • but firm, direct and honest
Physical Assessment General Appearance & Behavior • • • Facial expression Posture / movement Hygiene Behavior Developmental Status
Vital Signs • Temperature: rectal only when absolutely necessary • Pulse: apical on all children under 1 year • Respirations: infant use abdominal muscles • Blood pressure: admission base line • And the “Fifth” Vital Sign is ____ ?
Pediatric Vital Signs – Normal Ranges Infant Toddler School-Age Adolescent • Heart Rate 80 -150 70 -110 60 -100 • Respiratory Rate 24 -38 22 -30 14 -22 12 -22 • Systolic blood pressure 65 -100 90 -105 90 -120 110 -125 • Diastolic blood pressure 45 - 65 55 -70 60 -75 65 -85
Physical Assessment • General • • Skin, hair, nails • • Head, neck, • lymph nodes • • Eyes, ears, nose, throat • • Chest, Tanner Scale Heart Abdomen Genitalia, Tanner Scale, Rectal Musculoskeletal: feet, legs, back, gait
Physical Assessment • Four Basic Skills: 1. Inspection 2. Palpation 3. Percussion 4. Auscultation • Sequence for abdominal: 1. inspection, 2. auscultation, 3. percussion, 4. palpation
Inspection • Use all your senses • The essential First Step of the Physical Exam
Palpation • Use of your fingers and palms to determine: • • • Temperature Hydration Texture Shape Movement Areas of Tenderness • Warm hands and short nails • Palpate areas of tenderness / pain last • Talk with the child during palpation to help him relax • Be observant of reactions to palpation • Move firmly without hesitation
Palpation • For the ticklish child: place her hands over your hands and have the child do the pressing down.
Percussion Use of tapping to produce sounds that are characterized according to: • • Intensity Pitch Duration Quality Direct vs. Indirect
Auscultation • Listening for body sounds • Bell: low-pitched • - heart • Diaphragm: high-pitched • – lung & bowel LUNGS: Listen to all lung fields FRONT AND BACK! auscultate for breath sounds and adventitious sounds
“I P P A” • Practice, Practice • by knowing what the norm is, you’ll be able to pick up on the abnormal, even if you can’t diagnose it…. • The important thing is to be able to say “This is not right” • and refer appropriately!

We Know It’s a Jungle Out There!
The Power of Nursing Never doubt how vitally important you are; never doubt how important your work is – and never expect anyone to acknowledge it before you do. Every moment, in everything you do, you are making a difference. In fact, you are in the business of making a difference in other people’s lives. In that difference lies their healing and your power. Never forget it. Leah L. Curtin, RN, MS, MA, DSC, FAAN
