Proper identification
Name band applied securely to the infantbefore he leaves the mother s side.ID band indicates:
- mother s name- Sex of infant- Date of birth- Time of birth* Removed only upon discharge

Thermoregulation is critical to neonatalsurvival
Neutral thermal environment is defined as theambient air temperature at which oxygenconsumption or heat production is minimalwith the body temperature in the normalrange of 36.7 to 37.3 C

Thermoregulatory crisis @ birth
Immediately after birth, body temperature of a neonate falls rapidly
Rate of fall is greatest in the first few minutesMaintaining temperature @ time of birth isone of the primary goals of NB care

Heat Loss
Ev aporation- from skin, each ml thatevaporates removes 560 calories of heat
Conduction - in contact with cold surfacese.g.linen, surfacesCon v ection cool air currents passing overbabyR adiation transfer of heat to cold objects inthe vicinity eg. Trolleys, cannisters

Thermoregulation
Non-shivering thermogenesisBrown fat assists with heat generation
Adopt flexed body position to minimise heatlossAbility to constrict subcutaneous and skin
vessels

Prevention of infections
Meticulous hand washingMothers should be allowed to give necessary
care to their infantCare of the umbilicusNappies & excreta carefully disposed
Nappy area cleaned and dried appropriatelyCare givers with minor infections not tohandle babies

Encouraging & assisting mothers withbreastfeeding immune systemAvoiding trauma/irritation to baby s skinEarly diagnosis & treatment of infectionAdequate spacing of cotsIndividual equipment for each babyIsolating infected babiesOngoing education on infection control

Parent teaching
Teaching parents necessary skills to enablethem to :
- Prevent avoidable illness- Provide proper nutrition- Provide appropriate development stimulations
- Provide love that evolves and grows
8/6/2019 Care of Newborn Nfp

Identifying illnesses in neonates- Poor feeding or unable to feed- Hypo/hyperthermia- Cord sepsis- Fits/convulsions- Breathing fast/difficulty in breathing- Change in skin color- Skin pustules

CRYING BABIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
8/6/2019 Care of Newborn Nfp

Why babies cry?
Need foodComfort
Too hot/too coldNeed to be heldNeeds rest
Something to make me feel better

Taking vital signs
TPR
- Count respiration first- periodic breathing,immature respiratory system
- Take temperature and count heart rate- Check color of baby- Check cord- Check for PU and BO- Check for lactation & breastfeeding

Ballard Score
The New Ballard Score is a set of proceduresdeveloped by Dr. Jeanne L Ballard, MD todetermine G estational Age throughneuromuscular and physical assessment of anewborn baby.Neurological criteria muscle tonePhysical criteria anatomical changes

Conjugation of bilirubin
W hat is bilirubin?
- waste product of red blood cells
- haemoglobin broken down into haem, globinand iron- haem converted to biliverdin unconjugatedbilirubin- globin amino acids protein- iron stored/used for new RBC

37/51
NORMAL CONJUGATION OF BILIRUBIN
S tep 1 :Red blood cells are broken down by the
reticuloendothelial system and unconjugatedbilirubin in the bloodstream is carried byalbumin to the liver. This is known as "pre-hepatic," "free," "unconjugated," or"indirectbilirubin"
8/6/2019 Care of Newborn Nfp
38/51
S tep 2:
The liver converts or conjugates bilirubin and
makes it water-soluble. This is known as"posthepatic", "conjugated" or "direct"bilirubin (normal value = 0.0 - 0.4 mg/dl)
8/6/2019 Care of Newborn Nfp
39/51
S tep 3:
Conjugated bilirubin is excreted via bile salts
to intestine. Bacteria in the intestine breakdown bilirubin to urobilinogen for excretion inthe feces

Forms of Bilirubin
U nconjugated fat soluble cannot beexcreted easily in bile or urineConjugated water soluble excreted infaeces or urine3 stages of bilirubin conjugation process are:- transport- conjugation- excretion

Types of Jaundice
1. P hysiological Jaundice
- appears after 24 hrs and fades by 1 wk of
age- a normal transitional state, affects about50% of term babies
- progressive rise in unconjugated bilirubin
8/6/2019 Care of Newborn Nfp
43/51
2. P athological jaundice
- appears within 24 hrs of birth
- rapid increase in total serum bilirubin(5mg/dl per day)

Causes of jaundice
Blood type/group incompatibilityEnzyme deficiencies
SpherocytosisExtravasated bloodPolycythemia
SepsisHypothermia, hypoxia, acidosis
