Identify risk factors associated with the development of RSV bronchiolitis. Discuss the pathophysiology of RSV bronchiolitis. Discuss the rationale for the following interventions in the clinical management of RSV bronchiolitis: humidified oxygen, oxygen saturation monitoring, nasopharyngeal suctioning and intravenous fluid administration (include the formula for calculating maintenance fluid requirements for an infant patient). What are the signs and symptoms of respiratory distress in an infant? Explain the use of albuterol in the treatment of RSV-bronchiolitis, including actions, side effects and contraindications and nursing considerations.

Differentiate between mild, moderate and severe dehydration in the pediatric patient. Explain the pathophysiological relationship between diarrhea, fluid and electrolyte imbalance and dehydration. Describe common methods of treatment for dehydration and diarrhea in young children, including oral rehydration solutions, medications and intravenous fluid replacement. What are the indications for each? Discuss the differences between the types of oral rehydration solutions. Why has the banana, rice, applesauce, toast or tea (BRAT) diet lost favor among treatment options? What is considered rehydration solutions? What assessment findings indicate improvement in the dehydrated child? Asthma What factors may trigger an asthmatic episode? What are the clinical manifestations of a pediatric patient experiencing an exacerbation of asthma? Explain the progression of asthma that is non-responsive to treatment. Discuss the pathophysiology of asthma. Discuss the actions, side effects, contraindications and nursing implications of the following medications in the treatment of asthma: albuterol, atrovent, epinephrine, prednisolone, prednisone, solumedrol, magnesium sulfate and sodium bicarbonate. Discuss the following treatment modalities for the treatment of asthma and note when each is indicated: aerosolized medications by nebulizer, metered-dose inhaler, oxygen, heliox therapy, and BiPAP.
