acute viral disease characterized by fever, swelling, and tenderness of one or more salivary glands, usually the parotid glands

acute, upper respiratory infectious disease; bacteria

viral disease with a sudden onset of a high fever for three or four days, during which time the child may experience mild cold-like symptoms and slight irritability

mild febrile infectious disease resembling both scarlet fever and measles but differeing from theses in its short course; rash of both macules and papules that fades and disappears in three days

acute, highlycommunicable viral disease that begins as an upper respiratory disorder with fever, sore throat, cough, runny nose, sensitivity to light, and possible conjunctivitis

acute, contagious disease characterized by sore throat, abrupt high fever, increased pulse, strawberry tongue (red and swollen), and punctiform (pointlike) bright red rash on the body

pervasive developmental disorder characterized by the individual being extremely withdrawn and absorbed with fantasy

congenital defect in which there is an oopen space between the nasal cavity and the lip due to failure of the soft tissue and bones in the area to fuse properly during embryologic development

infant's foot is fixed in plantar flexion and heel is elevated

congential heart defect characterized by a localized narrowing of the aorta, resutls in increased BP in upper extremities and decreased BP in lower extremities

barking cough, striodor, and laryngeal spasm

severe impairment of the function of respiration in the premature newborn

accumulation of fluid in any saclike cavity or duct, particularly the scrotal sac or along the spermatic cord

abnormal increase of CSF in brain causes ventricles to dilate, resulting in an increased head circumference in the infant with open fontanels

congential defect urethra opens on the underside of the penis instead the end

telescoping of a portion of proximal intestine into distal intestine (usually in the ileocecal region), casuing an obstruction

• congenital heart anomaly that consists of four defects:
• - pulmonary stenosis
• - interventricular septal defect
• - dextroposition (shifting to the right) of the aorta so that it receives blood from both ventricles
• - hypertrophy of the right ventricle

two major arteries of the heart are reversed in position, resulting in two noncommunicating circulatory system
