Q-1
A. Define “Tetralogy of Fallot” Define ‘Tetralogy of Fallot’.03
Tetralogy of Fallot is a congenital heart defect. In which four heart defects are found together in a child.
1) Ventricular septal defect,
2) Pulmonary stenosis,
3) Overriding aorta,
4) Right ventricular hypertrophy.
••>
1) Ventricular septal defect:
In ventricular septal defect, there is an abnormal opening in the septum separating the right and left ventricles.
2) Pulmonary stenosis:
In pulmonary stenosis, the pulmonary artery (the blood vessel that carries deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle to the lungs) narrows, which obstructs the blood flow from the right ventricle.
3) Overriding aorta aorta):
Overriding of aorta is a condition in which normally the aorta (the main blood vessel that carries oxygenated blood from the heart to the body) originates from the left ventricle of the heart, but in overriding of aorta, the aorta originates directly above the ventricular septal defect on the left ventricle.
4) Right ventricular hypertrophy:
When the pulmonary artery (A blood vessel that carries deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle and delivers blood to the lungs for oxygenation) narrows and stenosis, requiring the right ventricle of the heart to do extra work (pumping) to pump blood from the right ventricle to the lungs. This extra pumping causes the muscles of the right ventricle of the heart to thicken, which is called hypertrophy.

Difference between Cyanotic and Acyanotic Condition
Introduction :
Congenital Heart Defects are mainly of two types: Cyanotic Condition and Acyanotic Condition. Both the conditions differ according to the level of blood flow and oxygenation in the cardiac field of the patient. The main difference depends on the amount of oxygen in the patient’s blood and the resulting blue color (cyanosis) seen on the skin.
Cyanotic condition is a condition in which deoxygenated blood mixes with pure blood inside the patient’s heart and oxygen-depleted blood reaches various parts of the body. This causes a bluish tinge to the patient’s lips, nails, and skin, which is called cyanosis.
In this condition, Right to Left Shunt is usually seen, in which deoxygenated blood from the right side of the heart goes directly to the left side and is pumped through the body.
For example:
Tetralogy of Fallot, Transposition of Great Arteries, Tricuspid Atresia, Total Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Return, etc.
Symptoms:
In an acyanotic condition, the patient has abnormal blood flow to the heart but there is no direct effect on the oxygenation of the blood. That is, only oxygenated blood flows in the patient’s body and cyanosis is not observed.
In this condition, a Left to Right Shunt is usually seen, in which oxygenated blood from the left side turns to the right side and returns to the pulmonary circulation.
For example:
Atrial Septal Defect, Ventricular Septal Defect, Patent Ductus Arteriosus, Atrioventricular Canal Defect, etc.
Features:
The main difference between Cyanotic and Acyanotic Cardiac Conditions is that in Cyanotic, the patient’s body has oxygen-depleted blood circulating in it, causing cyanosis, while in Acyanotic, there is a silent disorder within the heart despite the presence of oxygenated blood. Both types of conditions can be serious for pediatric patients and require immediate medical and surgical intervention. As a nurse, it is a very important responsibility to understand this difference and provide proper monitoring and care to the patient.

A. Define “Nephrotic Syndrome” OR “Write the definition of Nephrotic Syndrome.03
Nephrotic syndrome is a combination of two words.
Nephrotic syndrome in children is a kidney disorder in which Due to damage to the glomeruli, which are the filtering units of the kidneys, or due to an increase in the permeability of the glomeruli, protein is excreted from the body through urine, in which mainly albumin is excreted from the body.
Due to the excretion of protein from the body through this urine, the amount of protein in the blood decreases, which causes swelling in the feet, particularly around the ankles, and in the abdomen, causing a condition called edema. Due to which the lipid and cholesterol levels in the blood also increase.
Nephrotic symptoms are a collection of symptoms that are mainly seen due to damage to the glomeruli in the kidneys.
Nephrotic syndrome mainly has four symptoms.
1) High levels of protein in the urine are excreted from the body (proteinuria).
2) Decreased amount of protein in the blood. (Hypoalbuminemia).
3) Increase in the amount of lipids in the blood (Hyperlipidemia).
4) Swelling in the body part (in the heel).
These four main symptoms are seen in nephrotic syndrome.
Nephrotic syndrome affects people of any age. It is mainly seen in children between the ages of 1 and 7 years.

The nurse provides different types of activities to the child during his hospitalization. Which activities reduce the child’s anxiety and help him to divert his mind and adjust to the hospitalized environment.
Researcher.
In today’s modern times, many changes are coming in the health care facility. In which as a pediatric nurse, he participates in many research projects. Research provides new concepts for better treatment plans and health care facilities for children. Many technological advancements can also be implemented in health care through research.

3.Megacolon – Megacolon
Megacolon is a type of congenital anomaly of the gastrointestinal system. It is also known as Hirschsprung’s disease. Hirschsprung’s disease is also called “megacolon” and “congenital aganglionic megacolon”. Hirschsprung’s disease is usually caused by the congenital absence of parasympathetic ganglionic nerve cells in both the mucosal and submucosal layers of the distal colon and rectum, resulting in extreme dilatation of the colon. Hirschsprung’s disease is of variable length and sometimes involves the colon wall. This disease mainly involves the rectosigmoid colon.

4.Factors affecting on growth & development – Factors affecting on growth & development
Growth
Growth is the physical maturation in which the size and shape of the various organs of the body increase. Which is seen due to the multiplication of cells and increase in intracellular substance. The change in growth can be measured in centimeters and kilograms.
Development
Development is the process in which the body matures functionally and physiologically. In development, there is an increase in the capacity to perform skills and functions. In which psychological, emotional and social changes take place. It is difficult to measure development but it can be measured.
Factors affecting growth and development:
Some factors that promote or inhibit the process of growth. There are two factors. Environmental Factors
Hereditary Factors
Hereditary Factors
Environmental Factors:
Prenatal Factors
Intra-uterine environment affects fetal growth and development
Maternal malnutrition
If the mother does not take a proper diet during pregnancy and is anemic, then intra-uterine growth retardation, low birth weight, preterm baby and disturbances in growth and development occur in later life.
Maternal Infection
Some intrauterine infections such as HIV, hepatitis are transmitted to the fetus through the placenta and affect its growth and development. Due to which congenital anomalies and congenital infections are seen.
Maternal Substance Abuse
Some teratogenic drugs, when taken during pregnancy, can cause congenital malformations, and smoking, tobacco, and alcohol also affect growth and development.
Maternal Illness
Conditions like hypertension, anemia, heart disease, hypothyroidism, diabetes, chronic renal failure, hyper pyrexia etc. which affect the growth of the fetus. If iodine deficiency is found in the mother, then the baby may suffer from mental retardation.
Miscellaneous

In primary and persistent enuresis, when the neurological maturation of the child’s urinary bladder control is delayed, it is called primary enuresis.
2) Secondary enuresis
Secondary enuresis is when a child has been bedwetting for a few months. Bladder control has been achieved but when the child’s bladder control is impaired again due to any stressful environment such as illness, hospitalization, family conflict, separation of parents and night time bed wetting, it is called secondary enuresis.
