Pediatric Health and Physical Assessment
Pediatric health and physical assessment are fundamental aspects of nursing care that focus on assessing the well-being and development of children from infancy through adolescence.
Hydrocephalus
Hydrocephalus is a condition characterized by an excess of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) within the ventricular and subarachnoid spaces of the cranial cavity.
Non-Organic Failure to Thrive
Non-Organic Failure to Thrive (NOFTT) is a condition in infants and young children characterized by inadequate growth and development, not caused by any underlying medical or organic issues. Instead, it results from a complex interplay of environmental, psychosocial, and nutritional factors that impede normal growth.
Cleft Lip and Cleft Palate
Cleft lip and cleft palate are congenital anomalies that occur during early fetal development, resulting in a gap or opening in the upper lip and/or the roof of the mouth (palate).
School Phobia
School phobia, also known as school refusal, is characterized by severe anxiety or fear surrounding school attendance, leading to a persistent refusal to attend classes. It can arise from various factors, such as separation anxiety, social difficulties, or academic stress.
Spina Bifida
Spina bifida is part of a group of birth defects called neural tube defects.
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), or attention deficit disorder (ADD), is a syndrome characterized by degrees of inattention, impulsive behavior, and hyperactivity.
