Sample text
How long is a typical meal? Does the child show evidence of food aversion such as crying, mouth clenching, head turning, or throwing food? The goal of the feeding history is to determine not only what the child is eating, but how the child is being fed. This information will be critical in helping to develop feeding recommendations for the family. A detailed medical history may give some indication of the etiology of the child’s feeding problem. Aspiration should be suspected in infants with recurrent pneumonias, wheezing or coughing, or gagging with feeds.
Wellness implies that the infant is happy, gaining weight and height appropriately, and achieving normal developmental milestones. Warning signals that warrant immediate evaluation versus those that may require referral for less urgent evaluation are listed in Table 5-1. Causes of vomiting are listed in Table 5-2. It is beyond the scope of this chapter to describe the approach to evaluate each symptom or sign. Acute changes in a previously well infant, such as bilious vomiting, abdominal tenderness or distension, the new onset of vomiting associated with fever, or a change in mental status warrant emergent evaluation.
3 Therefore, if an infant or child has recurrent asthma or wheezing, a referral for further evaluation to rule out airway disease or to optimize asthma management should be considered. Chronic hoarseness and other laryngeal disorders have also been attributed to gastroesophageal reflux disease, but evidence of improvement with proton pump therapy in infants, children, and adults is lacking. Since other disorders need to be ruled, referral for laryngoscopy should be considered. References 1. Vandenplas Y, Rudolph CD, Di Lorenzo C, et al.
