NM705 EXAM 2 *STUDY* EXAM QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
WITH COMPLETE SOLUTIONS VERIFIED
delayed cord clamping
- waiting 2-5 minutes
delayed cord clamping provides the newborn with
- expansion of blood volume by 20-30 mL
- additional RBCs volume = higher iron levels = less IDA during first 6 months of life
newborn hypoglycemia occurs
- in 1st few days of life
newborn hypoglycemia Sx
- jitteriness
- cyanosis
- apnea
- hypothermia
- poor tone
- poor feeding
- lethargy
- seizures
newborn hypoglycemia prevention
- BF within 1st hr of life --> BF decreases
,with newborn hypoglycemia you need to beware of those at risk and look for Sx
rather than rely on
- glucose levels
erythromycin eye ointment is given to
- prevent blindness associated with maternal gonorrhea
erythromycin eye ointment is given within
- within 4 hrs
erythromycin eye ointment does not effectively prevent
- conjunctivitis from chlamydia
vit K dose
0.5-1 mg IM x1
vit K given within
- within 6 hrs
vit K is given to prevent
- VKDB (vit K deficiency bleeding)
- HDN (hemorrhagic disease of newborn)
vit K is recommended for newborn d/t
- poor placental transport
- low concentration in breast milk
- sterile gut
vit K is dependent on
- coag factors
- confers Ca binding properties to certain proteins --> which are coag factors
, which form of vit K is the injection
- 1 --> not synthesized --> found in food (leafy greens)
vit k 1 comes from
- food/diet
- this is the IM shot
vit k 2 comes from
- synthesized by bacteria
vit k 3 is
- synthetic
- not used in newborns anymore
what is the APGARs purpose
- describe newborns status
- indicate newborns transition to extra uterine life
- determines newborns response to resus
APGAR 7-10 means
- vigorous newborn
APGAR 4-6 means
- focused resus efforts
APGAR <3 means
- intensive resus procedures
Appearance 0 =
- blue/pale over entire body
Appearance 1 =
