The weight is not very heavy, there will be immature organs, there will be symptoms of short breathing, ** very thin, it looks very thin, and there will be purple face, which are the characteristics of premature babies. Nursing should be carried out with relevant equipment, or a nursing plan should be developed, and the physical fitness of premature infants must be enhanced.

Premature babies are characterized by being more prone to disease, poor body resistance and immunity, prone to dyspnea, edema, poor reflexes, and too tender; Premature babies should be carried out more carefully, customers should pay more attention to cleanliness and hygiene, do a good job of keeping warm, go to the hospital for regular check-ups, and let the child maintain enough sleep.

The crying is weak, the cry is weak, the heel is smooth, the heart rate is fast, and the fundus is poorly developed; You should take care of it carefully, keep the premature baby warm, don't touch the premature baby, give the premature baby a nutrition, don't put a hot water bottle next to the premature baby, prevent burns, and wash your hands when feeding.

The cry is relatively weak, **red and tender, the heel is smooth, the heart rate is relatively fast, and the fundus is poorly developed; You should take care of the premature baby carefully, keep the premature baby warm, don't touch the premature baby, give the premature baby a nutrition, don't put a hot water bottle next to the premature baby, avoid burns, and wash your hands when feeding.

The body length is less than 47 cm, there will be edema when it is shiny, there is more fetal hair, the ear shell is softer, the body temperature is lower than normal, and the blood pressure is relatively low. If the digestive system is not good, if there is such a situation, it needs to be placed in the holding room, and it must be breastfed when the body goes to normal value.

Premature babies are prone to illness and have a small number of pounds, so they need special care, and premature babies are weak and sick, so they need special care. Observe the baby in time, measure the weight often after fibrillation, check the baby's condition, do a good job of examination, to avoid the baby Zheng noisy sick, premature babies should be very careful in nursing, and always observe the baby.

Nursing care of premature infants 1: pay attention to keeping warm Due to the imperfect body temperature center of premature infants, the body surface area is relatively large, the subcutaneous fat is less, the sweat glands are underdeveloped, and the body temperature is greatly affected by the environment. Occurs due to low ambient temperatures.

Therefore, it is important to maintain the body temperature of premature infants. If it is less than 2000g, the temperature in the box is adjusted to 32 33; 1500 2000g, the temperature in the box is adjusted to 32 34; 1500g, adjust the temperature in the box to 32 36. Before the child's body temperature returns to normal, the pre-body temperature should be measured every 1 hour, and every 4 hours after returning to normal, and a record should be made.

Premature babies are characterized by their weak bodies, not full-term, and relatively small bodies, which need to be placed in incubators to survive and need to be cared for by professionals. To do a good job of keeping Wen Tong's reputation warm, we must first do a good diet and feeding, and also do a good job in the prevention of some diseases, and also take care of the state of the child.

Feeding premature infants.

1. Milk feeding.

1) Fortified nutrition: Fortified breast milk, formula milk for preterm infants or formula milk feeding for preterm infants after discharge. Preterm infants of gestational age who do not reach the 25th percentile of corrected weight and preterm infants who are small for gestational age who do not reach the 10th percentile require continued nutritional fortification after discharge.

When the above physical growth standards are met, the energy density of the fortified nutrients should be gradually reduced, and the growth rate and blood biochemical parameters should be closely monitored until the use is stopped.

2) Non-fortified nutrition: Preterm infants who do not need fortified nutrition are preferred to be exclusively breastfed, and attention should be paid to supplementing nutrients such as multivitamins, iron, calcium, phosphorus, etc., and nursing mothers should be guided to have a balanced diet.

Supplementation of infant formula when breast milk is insufficient.

2. Food conversion.

On the premise of ensuring adequate milk feeding such as breast milk and/or infant formula, according to the level of development and physiological maturity and catch-up growth, muddy and solid foods are generally introduced gradually at the corrected age of 4 to 6 months.

3. Nutrient supplementation.

1) Iron supplementation: continue to supplement iron 2 mg (kg·d) until corrected 12 months of age. Reduce the amount of iron supplementation when using breast milk fortifiers, iron-fortified formulas, and other iron-rich foods.

2) Vitamin A, D and calcium and phosphorus supplementation: continue to supplement vitamin D800 1000 U d, change to 400 U d after 3 months, until 2 years old, and supplement vitamin A, calcium and phosphorus as appropriate.

Premature babies should be cared for in the hospital by a professional doctor, and it is important to pay attention to the baby's body temperature during the nursing process, because body temperature is a healthy reaction.

Because the baby is born prematurely, the organ development may not be very perfect, so it is necessary to strengthen the warmth, the body resistance of premature babies is relatively poor, the immune function is not perfect, and it is easy to be infected, so it is best to disinfect yourself when you come into contact with premature babies.

When nursing premature babies, you must pay attention to the temperature, open the windows at home to ventilate, watch the weather increase or decrease, and don't wear too many clothes to avoid sweating. It is necessary to pay attention to the disinfection of the navel, parents should pay attention to hand hygiene, and disinfect their hands before feeding and making milk powder.
