    cellsDiagram showing the main

    steps in the synthesis of

    hydrochloric acid. Active

    transport by ATPase is

    indicated by arrows and

    diffusion is indicated by dotted

    arrows. Under the action ofcarbonic anhydrase, carbonic

    acid is produced from CO2.

    Carbonic acid dissociates into a

    bicarbonate ion and a proton

    (H+), which is pumped into the

    stomach lumen in exchange for

    K+. A high concentration of

    intracellular K+is maintained by

    the Na+, K+ATPase, whileHCO3

    is exchanged for Clby

    an antiport. The tubulovesicles

    of the cell apex are seen to be

    related to hydrochloric acid

    secretion, because their number

    decreases after parietal cell

    stimulation as microvilli

    increase. Most of the

    bicarbonate ion returns to theblood and is responsible for a

    measurable increase in blood

    pH during digestion, but some is

    taken up by surface mucous

    cells and used to raise the pH of

    mucus.

    Regulation of gastric acid and pepsin secretion by soluble mediators and neural

    input.Gastrin is released from G cells in the antrum and travels through the circulation

    to influence the activity of ECL (enterochromaffin-like cells) cells and parietal cells. The

    specific agonists of the chief cell are not well understood. Gastrin release is negatively

    regulated by luminal acidity via the release of somatostatin from antral D cells.

    Definition

    Abnormal emptying of stomach and upper partof intestine via esophagus through mouth.

    This is not the same as regurgitation, whichrefers to emitting already swallowed food, andmust be distinguished correctly.

    Vomiting is often related to or preceded bynausea, but both nausea-without-vomiting andvomiting-without-nausea are possible.

    Any nausea or vomiting symptom needs promptprofessional medical investigation.

    Mechanism

    Receptors are stimulated which contribute impulses to the vomiting center in thebrain

    Sensory impulse stream from receptors reach the vomiting center and initiate anumber of motor responses.

    The diaphragm and the skeletal muscles of the abdominal wall contract

    Increase the intra-abdominal pressure

    The cardiac sphincter relaxes and soft palate rise to close off the nasal passage

    The stomach (or intestinal) contents are then forced upward through theesophagus, pharynx and out the mouth

  • 8/12/2019 Group 20 Problem 1B

    62/84

    Causes

    Anatomic Factors

    The angle of His (made by the esophagus and

    the axis of the stomach) is obtuse in newborns

    but decreases as infants develop. This ensures amore effective barrier against gastroesophageal

    reflux.

    The presence of a hiatal hernia may displace the

    lower esophageal sphincter (LES) into thethoracic cavity

    Resistance to gastric outflow raises intragastric

    pressure and leads to reflux and vomiting.

    Esophagography Strictures can be demonstrated by esophagography.

    Chronic esophageal mucosal injury secondary to

    gastroesophageal reflux involves a mucosal/submucosalinflammatory cell infiltrate as well as basal cell hyperplasia. Insevere cases, this may appear as a ragged mucosal outline onradiography

    Medications

    Changes in diet and lifestyle :

    Appropriate weight management of overweight or

    obese children is important

    Avoid the seated or the supine position shortlyafter meals. In addition, sleeping in the prone

    position has been demonstrated to decrease the

    frequency of gastroesophageal reflux

    Placing blocks under the head of the bed orplacing a foam wedge under the patient's

    mattress can accomplish this.

    T t t & P i

  • 8/12/2019 Group 20 Problem 1B

    67/84

    Treatment & Prognosis

    GE reflux resolves spontaneously in 85% of

    affected infants by 12 months of age,

    coincident with assumption of erect posture

    and initiation of solid feedings. Until then, regurgitation volume may be

    reduced by offering small feedings at frequent

    intervals and

    by thickening feedings with rice cereal (23

    tsp/oz of formula).

    Prethickened "anti-reflux" formulas are

    available.

    T t t & P i

  • 8/12/2019 Group 20 Problem 1B

    68/84

    Treatment & Prognosis

    Histamine-2 (H2)receptor antagonists

    (ranitidine, 5 mg/kg/d in two doses) or

    proton pump inhibitors (omeprazole, 0.51.0

    mg/kg/d in one dose) do not reduce thefrequency of reflux but may reduce pain

    behavior.

    Prokinetic agents such as metoclopramide

    hasten gastric emptying and improve

    esophageal motor function, but studies have

    not shown efficacy in controlling symptoms.

    T t t & P i

  • 8/12/2019 Group 20 Problem 1B

    69/84

    Treatment & Prognosis

    A 2-week trial of protein hydrolysate formula

    (hypoallergenic) sometimes controls emesis

    and pain behavior in infants with protein

    sensitivity. Special formulas and acid suppression agents

    are costly and should be discontinued if

    there is no improvement of symptoms in 1

    2 weeks.

    T t t & P i

  • 8/12/2019 Group 20 Problem 1B

    70/84

    Treatment & Prognosis

    Antireflux surgery (fundoplication) is indicatedwhen GERD is unresponsive to medications, thusleading to severe symptoms that include

    (1) persistent vomiting with failure to thrive,

    (2) esophagitis or esophageal stricture, (3) life-threatening apneic spells, or

    (4) chronic pulmonary disease unresponsive to23 months of maximal medical therapy.

    Fundoplication also may be considered in patientswhose response to medication is likely to bepoorthose with large hiatal hernia, neurologichandicap, previous TE fistula surgery, or severeesophagitis.

    Lab Studies

    Electrolytes, pH, BUN, and creatinine levelsshould be obtained at the same time asintravenous access in patiens with pyloricstenosis

    Hypochloremic, hypokalemic metabolikalkalosis is the classic electrolyte and acid-base imbalance

    Imaging

    Imaging

    Ultrasonography :

    pyloric muscle thickness greater than 4 mm

    length of the pyloric canal is variable and may

    range from 14 mm to 20 mm pyloric diameter may range from 10-14 mm

    Treatments

    Treatments

    Pre-hospital Care :

    Immediate treatment requires correction of fluid

    loss, electrolytes, and acid-base imbalance.

    Once intravenous access is obtained, thedehydrated infant should receive an initial bolus

    (20 mL/kg) of crystalloid fluid.

    The infant should remain nothing by mouth (NPO)

    Medications

    Surgical correction is considered the standardof care for infantile hypertrophic pyloric

    stenosis (IHPS)

    Prognosis

    Prognosis

    Surgery is curative with minimal mortality.Theprognosis is very good, with complete

    recovery and catch-up growth if detected in a

    timely fashion

    Conclusion

    82/84

    Conclusion

    Base on the clinical history, clinicalmanifestation, and physical examination, the

    baby boy is suspected to have a Pyloric

    Stenosis

    Suggestion

    Suggestion

    Immediate correction of fluid loss, electrolytes& acid-base imbalance

    Consult to surgeon
