c. Explain the procedure.

Answer

a. It is a technique used to initiate relactation in mothers who have developed lactation failure
b. A nasogastric tube (NGT) 8 size (5 size NGT can be used but the milk should be strained to remove the small particles that block the tube). The appropriate amount of supplemental suckling milk is put in the cup. The mother or assistant holds it.
c. The end of the tube is put in the cup. The tip of the tube is plastered over the breast at the nipple and the infant is offered the breast in the normal way so that the infant attaches properly.

At first, the cup should be placed about 5–10 cm below the level of nipples so the SS milk can be taken with little effort by a weak infant. It must never be placed above the level of nipple, as it may flow quickly into the infant’s mouth and cause risk of inhalation.

Calculate fluid requirement of 28 weeks baby with weight of 1.8 kg, who is diagnosed with duodenal atresia and planned for surgery. Start the baby on antibiotics preoperatively.

Answer

Fluids: 60 mL/kg/day = 60 × 1.8 = 108 mL
Smoff 20% = 2 g/kg/day = 3.6 g/day = 3.6/20 × 100 = 18 mL/day = 0.75 mL/hour
Net IVF = 108 mL − 18 mL (Smoff) – 5 mL (antibiotics, to be considered if the baby is on any IV antibiotic) = 85 mL
Aminoven (10%) = 1.5 g/kg/day = 2.7 g/day = 2.7/10 × 100 = 27 mL
10% D = 85–27 mL = 58 mL
Aminoven + 10 D @ 3.5 mL/hour
GIR = mL/kg/day × %d/144 = 4 mg/kg/min
Final TPN order
Smoff 20% @ 0.75 mL/hour
Dextrose + Aminoven @ 3.5 mL/hour

■FINAL PIECE OF ADVICE

Those within brackets are only examples, but the list is very long.
Have a deep look at all images and tables of Nelson Textbook of Pediatrics and PG Textbook of Pediatrics.
Read compulsorily last 5-year examination papers of OSCE.
Be thorough with basics.
Need not panic, only 50% needed to pass.
Unobserved stations will contain 4–5 videos, 4–5 pictures, and 2–3 tables.
Finally, the secret ingredient is Practice, Practice, Practice!!!
