NEWBORN PRIORITIES IN THE FIRST DAYS OF LIFE 1. Initiation & maintenance of respirations 2. Establishment of extrauterine circulation 3. Control of body temperature 4. Adequate nourishment 5. Waste elimination 6. Prevention of infection 7. Infant-parent relationship 8. Developmental care MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD

A. Establish and Maintain Respiration 1. Suctioning - Turn head to one side - Suction gently and quickly - Suction the MOUTH first before the nose - Test patency of the airway - Proper position a. Ensure an open airway. b. Do not hyperextend head - place neonate supine - head slightly extended MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD

13
Warmth • At birth, the newborn must begin thermoregulation (maintenance of body temperature). 3 Factors : • Heat production • Heat retention • Heat loss MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
14
1. Heat Production Thermogenesis – through • general metabolism • muscular activity • nonshivering thermogenesis (unique to the newborn)
Newborns rarely shiver as adults do to increase heat production. Shivering in newborns indicates that the metabolic rate has already doubled. MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
15
Infant in a cool environment requires more heat metabolic rate increases producing more heat – Newborn may cry and have muscular activity when cold, but there is no voluntary control of muscular activity. – if the newborn’s temperature is not adequately raised through increased metabolism, MLNG nonshivering RN, MD thermogenesis :CELESTE, the metabolism of
16
Non Shivering Thermogenesis - the metabolism of brown
fat Brown fat - special tissue/ fat found only in newborns - highly vascularized giving it a brown color - oxidized to produce or conserve heat - increasing metabolism - located at the of MLNG back CELESTE, RN, MD the neck, 17
MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
18
• Once the brown fat has been metabolized, the infant no longer has this method of heat production available.
MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
19
2. Heat Retention Newborns retain heat by staying in a flexed position. - reduces the area of skin exposed to the environmental temperature, thus decreasing heat loss - peripheral vasoconstriction retains heat MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
20
Conservation of Heat 1.Brown fat 2. kangaroo care – placing the newborn against the mother’s skin and then covering the newborn helps to transfer heat from the mother to the newborn, thus, conserving heat loss MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD 21
3. Heat Loss Newborn - thin skin with blood vessels close to the surface and little subcutaneous fat to prevent heat loss Cold Stress - excessive heat loss MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
22
increased metabolism significant increase in need for oxygen newborn may experience hypoxia There may not be enough oxygen for the metabolic rate to increase, and the newborn will not be able to maintain body temperature. MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD 23
Effects of Cold Stress (temp<36.5) 1. Metabolic Acidosis - increased BMR, anaerobic glycolysis, increased acid production, metabolic acidosis 2. Hypoglycemia - increased energy requirement to produce heat - glucose necessary for increased metabolism is made available when glycogen stores are converted to glucose MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD 24 - if the glycogen is depleted,
4 MECHANISMS OF HEAT LOSS 1. Convection - flow of heat from the newborn’s body surface to cooler surrounding air 2. Radiation - transfer of body heat to cooler solid object not in contact with the baby 3. Conduction - transfer of body heat to cooler solid object in contact with MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD 25 the baby
4 MECHANISMS OF HEAT LOSS A. Convection B. Radiation C. Conduction D. Evaporation MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
26
Other Causes of Heat Loss 1. insulation in newborn is not effective (little subcutaneous fat ) 2. shivering is not present

Common Illnesses of the Newborn
MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
198
Respiratory distress syndrome - HMD ( hyaline membrane disease)
Common: 1. preterm infant 2.infant of diabetic mother 3.meconium aspiration
MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
199
• Pathologic feature: hyaline-like membrane formed lines the terminal bronchioles, alveolar duct,and alveoli prevents exchange of O2 and CO2 at alveolar-capillary membrane respiratory acidosis MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
200
• S/Sx: initial
late
1.low body temperature 2.nasal flaring 3.sternal and subcostal retraction 4.tachypnea 5. cyanotic mucuos membrane 1. seesaw respiration 2. heart failure 3. pale gray skin 4. period of apnea 5. bradycardia 6. pneumothorax MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
201
diagnosis: - clinical sign of grunting, cyanosis in room air, nasal flaring, retraction and shock - chest X-ray reveals diffuse pattern of radioopaque areas management 1. surfactant replacement 2. oxygen administration- in very immature infant is retinopathy of prematurity 3.ventilation-( normally I/E ratio is 1:2,there is difficulty in supplying O2 MLNG to stiff lung, CELESTE, RN, MD so in child it is reverse
202
prevention: -usually happens on preterm infant ; ( steroids-quicken the formation of lecithin)
MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
203
Transient Tachypnea of Newborn -results from slow absorption of lungs fluid , reflects slight decrease in production of mature surfactant -limits the amount of alveolar surface area available for oxygenation MD -infant tends MLNG to CELESTE, haveRN, increased RR and204
- peaks in intensity at approx. 36hrs of life, and by 72hrs of life spontaneously fades as lung fluid is absorbed Common: 1.infant born via CS 2.infants whose mother received extensive fluid administration during labor 3. preterm infants Management: 1. close observation MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD 205
Meconium Aspiration - infant may aspirate meconium either in utero or in first breath after birth. cause severe respiratory distress in 3 ways: 1. causes inflammation of bronchioles because it’s a foreign substance 2. blocks small bronchioles by mechanical plugging MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD 206 3. causes a decrease in surfactant
sign and symptoms: 1. tachypnea 2. retraction 3. barrel chest 4. blood gas shows decrease PO2 and increase PCO2 5. chest x-ray shows a peculiar honeycomb effect MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
207
Management: 1. suctioning with bulb syringe or catheter while at the perineum 2. severe aspiration- infant might be intubated 3. don’t administer O2 under pressure 4. antibiotic therapy 5. chest physiotherapy and chest clapping MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
208
Apnea : • pause in respiration longer than 20 secs. with accompanying bradycardia commonly seen in: 1.preterm infant 2.infection 3.hyperbilirubinemia 4.hypoglycemia MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
209
MANAGEMENT: 1. gently shaking an infant or flicking the sole of the feet 2. always suction the secretion gently to minimize naso pharyngeal irritation 3. never take rectal temperature in infant prone to apnea - may cause vagal stimulation which results to bradycardia MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD 210
SIDS Sudden Infant Death Syndrome - sudden unexplained death in infancy - cause is unknown who are at risk: 1. infant of adolescent mother 2.infant of closely spaced pregnancies 3.underweight infant 4. preterm infant MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
211
Contributory factors: 1. viral respiratory infection 2. botulism infection 3. brain stem abnormalities 4.neurotransmitter defeciency 5. heart rate abnormality 6.decrease arousal responses 7. possible lack of surfactant in alveoli 8. sleeping prone MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
212
Hemolytic disease of the newborn • ABO incompatibility: set up is mother’s type is O baby’s type is A, B, AB Sign and symptom- primarily jaundice Txt: 1. phototherapy 2.if with severe jaundice can do exchange transfusion 3.initiation of early feeding MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
213
• RH incompatibility: mother is RH(-) ( has D antigen) baby is RH (+) Sign and symptoms: kernicterus hydrops fetalis (edema) ( lethal state)
MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
214
Isoimmunization (Rh Incompatibility) Rh: major blood group antigen of importance during pregnancy Rh (-) negative mother is carrying a fetus with Rh (+) positive blood Incompatibility between the mother’s Rh (-) and fetus’ Rh (+) can lead to Hemolytic disease of the newborn
MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
215
Rh- mother carries Rh+ fetus • Rh Sensitization and Prevention Rh+ fetal blood may mix with Rh- maternal blood Mother’s immune system produces Rh antibodies in response to Rh+ fetal blood cells Antibodies remain in maternal blood following pregnancy Maternal antibodies attack Rh+ fetus in the next pregnancy, resulting in hemolysis Mother receives Rhogam to prevent her immune system from producing Rh antibodies so in a subsequent pregnancy, Rh+ fetal MLNG CELESTE, RN, MDblood cells are NOT
216
• If a tear in the placenta occurs and there was no treatment, the next Rh+ positive fetus will have RBCs destroyed by the maternal Rh antibodies. • This causes hemolysis of fetal RBCs and then -anemia which in turn causes fetal edema – Hydrops fetalis or Erythroblastosis fetalis (a syndrome with a hyperdynamic state, heart failure, diffuse edema, ascites and pericardial effusion) MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
217
RhoGAM • Rh immune globulin given to gravidas who are Rh(-) if there is suspicion of feto-maternal bleeding (amniocentesis, miscarriage, vaginal bleeding and delivery), during any trimester, after delivery and prophylactically at 28 weeks MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
218

Growth and development
MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
224
Growth • growth and development can be used interchangeably, but they are different • Growth - is generally used to denote an increase in physical size or quantitative change • growth in weight is measured in kgs. or pounds • while growth in height is measured in inches or cm. MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD 225
Development • development (synonymous with maturation) - used to indicate an increase in skills or the ability to function (qualitative change)
• can be measured by the ff: – observing child’s ability to perform specific task – by recording the parent’s description of child’s progress MLNG CELESTE, RN, MDtest such as 226 – by using standardized
• Denver II TEST- (Denver developmental screening test II) 125 easily administered developmental test items, with age norm, presented in a convenient one-page format. • Types of development – – – –
psychosexual development psychosocial development moral development cognitive development MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
227
1.Psychosexual developmentspecific type of development that refers to developing instinct or sensual pleasure 2.Psychosocial development- refers to stages of personality development (Erikson) 3.Moral development- is the ability to know right from wrong and to apply this to real life situation (Kohlberg) MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
228
4.Cognitive development- refers to the ability to learn or understand from experience, to acquire and retain knowledge, to respond to new situation ,to solve problem.
– measured by intelligence tests, and by observing a child’s ability to function effectively in his/her environment MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
229
Principles of growth and development – – – – –
growth and development are continuous process from conception until death growth and development proceed in an orderly sequence different children pass through the predictable stages at different rates all body systems do not develop at the same rate development is cephalocaudal MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
230
– development proceeds from proximal to distal body parts – development proceeds from gross to refined skills – there is an optimum time for initiation of experiences or learning – neonatal reflexes must be lost before development can proceed – a great deal of skill and behavior is learned by practice MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
231
PHYSIOLOGIC AND STRUCTURAL CHANGES: • Respiratory rate and pulse rate decrease sharply during the first 2 years and then more gradually throughout childhood, blood pressure rises steadily beginning at approximately 6 yrs of age
MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
232
• Development of the paranasal sinuses continues throughout childhood, the ethmoid, maxillary, and sphenoid sinuses are present from birth. • the ethmoid reaches its maximum size relatively early in childhood (7-14 yrs of age), others reach their maximum size after puberty
MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
233
•Lymphoid tissues develop rapidly, reaching adult size by 6 years of age and continue to hypertrophy throughout childhood and early adolescence before receding to adult size •The metabolism of medication and child’s response to them change rapidly in the first month of life and again under the hormonal influences in MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD 234
•Nutritional needs as well as a wide variety of biochemical and hematologic values undergo marked developmental changes.

THEORIES OF GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT
MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
236
1. PSYCHOSEXUAL THEORY
• Psychosexual theory- Freudian theory , the idea of bodycentered drives Infancy(0-1yr)- oral ( sucking of the first year of life) Toddlerhood(2-3 yr)-anal (holding on and letting go during MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD the Toddler years)
237
Continuation….. Preschool (3-6 yr)-oedipal drives (possessiveness toward a parent In the preschool years) School age (6-12 yr)-Latency Adolescence (12-20)-adolescence MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
238
Oral – infant • oral stimulation for nutrition, enjoyment and release of tension • NI: provide oral stimulation – pacifiers, breastfeeding, thumbsucking Anal - toddler • elimination is a way of discovery and exerting independence • NI: help achieve bowel and bladder control even if hospitalized Phallic – preschool • increased knowledge of 2 sexes • NI: accept sexual interest MLNG CELESTE, RN, MDand answer 239 questions about birth or sexual difference
Latent - school age • libido diverted to school • NI: help achieve positive experiences to promote self esteem Genital - Adolescent • establish sexual aims and finding new love objects • - NI: provide opportunities to relate with opposite sex and allow verbalizationMLNG CELESTE, about new feelings RN, MD
240
2.Psychosocial theory > recast Freud’s stages in term of the emerging personality Infancy (0-1) – basic trust vs mistrust Toddler hood (2-3)- autonomy vs. shame and doubt Preschool (3-6) –initiative vs. guilt School age (6-12) – industry vs. MLNG CELESTE, RN, inferiority MD 241
• Trust vs Mistrust – infant T: appreciate environment as safe and people as dependable M: suspicious, fearful, shun emotional involvement NI: provide primary caregiver and visual stimulation • Autonomy vs Shame and Doubt – toddler A: build on new motor and mental abilities, take pride in accomplishments S: doubt and stop trying NI: provide opportunities for decision making and give raises MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
242
• Initiative vs Guilt – preschool I: how to do things G: limited brainstorming and problem-solving skills NI: provide opportunities for exploration, answer questions and do not inhibit fantasy • Industry vs Inferiority - school age Ind: how to do things well Inf: always worried about poor or incorrect performance NI: provide opportunities for completing short projects, give praise and rewards
MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
243
• Identity vs Role Confusion – adolescent I: integrate image into a whole R: unsure of who they are or who they can become, may rebel NI: provide opportunities to discuss feelings and support and praise for decision-making MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
244
3.Cognitive theory( piaget theory) described how children actively construct knowledge for themselves through the linked processes of assimilation( seeking experiences) and accommodation (adapting their implicit ideas about the world to take new information into account) MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
245
1. Sensorimotor ( stages 1-VI)practical intelligence, because word And symbols for thinking and problem solving are Not yet available at this early age. – Neonatal reflex-1 mo. (stimuli are assimilated into beginning mental images – Secondary circular reaction- 1-4 mo., hand-mouth and ear-eye coordination develop- beginning CELESTE, RN, MD intention MLNG of behavior is present 246
– Coordination of secondary reaction- 8-12 mo., infant can plan activities to attain specific goalsperceives that others can cause activities and that activities of own body are separate from activity of objects. – Tertiary circular reaction-12-18 mo. Capable of space perception as well as permanence. – Invention of new means through mental coordinations- 18-24 mo.transitional phase, uses memory MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD 247 and imitation to act. good toy are
2. Preoperational thought- 2-7 yr. ( preschool) – – – –
Thought becomes more symbolic Comprehends simple abstraction Child is egocentric Display static thinking( inability to remember what he or she started to talk about so that the end of the sentence the child is talking about another topic) – Concept of time is now and concept of distance is only as far as he or she can see – No awareness of reversibility is present – Unable to state cause-effect relationships, categories and abstraction, good toys are MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD 248 items that require imagination like
3. Concrete operation- 7-12 yr.( school age ) – Includes systemic reasoning – Uses memory to learn broad concepts and subgroups of concept – Child is aware of reversibility – Understand conservation, sees constant despite transformation – Collecting and classifying natural objects-good activity for this period.
MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
249
4.Formal operational-12 yr. (adolescence) – Can solve hypothetical problems with scientific reasoning – Understand causality – Can deal with the past, present, and future – Adult or mature thought – Talk-time- good activity for this MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD 250 period
Piaget’s Theory of Cognitive development Sensorimotor – 1 mo-24 mo Preoperational Thought – 2-7 y/o Concrete Operational Thought – 7-12 y/o Formal Operational Thought – 12 y/o
MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
251
Sensorimotor - relate through senses, separate from environment, practical intelligence
Preoperational toddler: symbolic thought, simple abstractions, literal thinking, poor concept of time and distance pre-schooler: centering, egocentric, no reversibility, no cause and effect, MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD assimilation, role fantasy
252
Concrete Operational - systematic reasoning - memory to learn broad concepts and subgroups - seriation and classification - reversibility - inductive reasoning (specific to general) - conservation (7 y/o – numbers; 7-8 y/o quantity; 9 y/o – weight; 11 y/o – volume) MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
253
Formal Operational Thought solve hypothetical problems, causality, time - talk time to sort attitudes and opinions
MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
254
4.Kohlberg’s theory of moral development developed a theory on the way children gain knowledge of right and wrong or moral reasoning. 1. Preconventional ( level I) 2-3 yr – punishment/ obedience orientation( heteronomous morality), child does right because a parent tells him or her to and avoid punishment. - 4-7 yr- individualism, carries out actions to satisfy own needs rather than societyMLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
255
2. Conventional ( level II ) 7-10 yrorientation to interpersonal relation of mutuality ( child follows rules because of a need to be a “good” in own eyes and in eyes of others) - 10-12 yr – maintenance of social order, fixed rules and authority( child finds following rules satisfying) MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
256
3.Postconventional ( level III) older > 12yrs - social contract, utilitarian , law making perspective (follows standards of society for the good of all people) - universal ethical principle orientation (follows internalized standards of conduct) MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
257
Kohlberg’s Theory of Moral Development Preconventional (Level I) Stage 1 - 2-3 yo “mother or father says so” punishment obedience orientation Stage 2 - 4-7 yo “mother says it’s wrong” individualism/egocentrism MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
258
Kohlberg’s Theory of Moral Development Conventional (Level II) Stage 3 – 7-10 yo “nice girl, nice boy” Stage 4 – 10-12 yo following rules is satisfying “Law and Order” MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
259
Kohlberg’s Theory of Moral Development Postconventional (level III) Stage 5 & 6 - >12 following standards for everyone’s good “Social Contract” “Principled conscience” MLNG CELESTE, RN, MD
260
Harry Sullivan 3. Prototaxic mode – infancy – need for bodily contact and love; anxiety due to unmet needs 4. Parataxic mode – 2-5 y/o - parents viewed as source of praise and acceptance 5. Syntaxic mode – 5-8 y/o - logical, rational and most mature type of cognitive functioning; need for peers MD 261 and howMLNG to CELESTE, deal RN, with them
