When to suspect IEMs• Hx:
– Age: • any age ( usually childhood)
– FHx:• Consang, miscarriages, deaths (SIDS, sepsis or unexplained), MR/DD, Sz,
specific ethnic group– HPI:
• NL at birth • Sx free period until toxic exposure (DOL#2 usually)• Septic picture of Acute overwhelming neonatal presentation: poor feeding,
lethargy to coma (encephalopathy) and Sz (myoclonic high amplitude tremors)
• Continuing deterioration despite Abx and –ve full sepsis screening• Episodic stress-related post-neonatal presentation of neonatal Sx [ stress=
fasting, fever/infections, high load of toxic metabolite, exercise, drugs, surgery, vaccine] + DD/DR, liver disease.
![Page 8: IEMs Emergency Management July 27, 2011 Emergency Lecture Series, AHD](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062323/5681595d550346895dc69b6f/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
When to suspect IEMs• Exam:
– Encephalopathy– Dysmorphism
• Coarse: MPSs• Others with typical unusual facies: Zellweger, SLOS, PPA• Hair AbN:
– Hirsutism: MPSs– Alopecia: Biotinidase– Kinky: Menkes– Blond= PKU
– Unusual odor: all Protein IEMs– Cabbage=Tyrosenemia I– MSU=MSUD– Mousy/Musty= PKU– Sweaty feet= IVA&GA2– Fish=TMAuria– Cat Urine= 3-methyl-crotonyl-coA carboxylase deficiency
– CNS non-specific findings: HC, Tone, Cherry-Red, RP– Organomegaly, CVS, MSK
![Page 9: IEMs Emergency Management July 27, 2011 Emergency Lecture Series, AHD](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062323/5681595d550346895dc69b6f/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
When to suspect IEMs
– Why it is crucial to have early Dx?
– Specific treatments that may radically alter individual outcomes averting significant neurologic sequelae
– Success related to earlier timing of identification & intervention
![Page 10: IEMs Emergency Management July 27, 2011 Emergency Lecture Series, AHD](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062323/5681595d550346895dc69b6f/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Approach to acute IEM presentation
• ABCD, IV line, Glucose, NPO (D/C toxic substance), send all labs [extremely important: Glucocheck]
• Quick targeted Hx: – FHx (important)
• Exam: (Targeted)– V/S– Establish LOC– Search Dysmorphism ( Cranium, skin, MSK )– Don’t forget to smell them!– CNS: Coma limited exam, don’t forget HC– Organomegaly– CVS
![Page 11: IEMs Emergency Management July 27, 2011 Emergency Lecture Series, AHD](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062323/5681595d550346895dc69b6f/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Approach to acute IEM presentation
• 1st line Labs:– BLOOD:
• CBC: OAs have pancyto• SMA10: protein, mitoch, perox IEMs have multi-syst involv and Renal
impairment• Full LFT including: enz, coags, NH3, Glucose + ketones in blood and urine• If Glu is low: send critical sample of Insulin, GH, Cortisol, FFA & Ketones• B. Gas with Lactate and pyruvate (ratio)• PAA/Acylcarnitines
– URINE:• UOA and ketones
– CSF: (After stabilization)• AA: NKH w high Gly, B6 def w low GABA• Lactate for mitoch
– EEG if Sz– MRI/MRS when stable
![Page 12: IEMs Emergency Management July 27, 2011 Emergency Lecture Series, AHD](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062323/5681595d550346895dc69b6f/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Fluid Mx principles in IEMs• ICU setting, Central Art and venous lines• High Rate @ 150ml/kg/day• High Glucose intake at:– @10mg/kg/min ( NL hepatic Glu production)– @~ 60 kcal/kg/day– May need more if OA, so, increase and add insulin– Maybe dangerous if PDHC (Mitich) b/o LA
• Avoid quick drop in Na+ to avoid cerebral edema• Intra-Lipids @ 0.5-1 to 3 gm/kg/day only after
excluding FAOD.
