- Shprintzen syndrome
- Velo cardio facial syndrome
Clinical Information
- Caused by microdeletion on chromosome 22q11.2; associated with multiple congenital anomalies, learning disabilities, behavioral phenotypes including adhd and anxiety, with schizophrenic risk in adulthood.
- Typical facies with a prominent nose and retruded mandible, cleft palate, cardiovascular defects, learning disability, retarded mental development, and short stature. Elements of this syndrome are frequently present in the robin syndrome.
Present On AdmissionPOA Help
"Present On Admission" is defined as present at the time the order for inpatient admission occurs — conditions that develop during an outpatient encounter, including emergency department, observation, or outpatient surgery, are considered POA.
- Q93.81 is considered exempt from POA reporting.
