Chapter 17

Fetal Structures
• Foramen ovale closes with decrease pulmonary vascular resistance
• Increases pressure to left side of heart
• 4 chambers
• Ductus arteriosis closes due to increase of O2 to lungs
• Ductus venosus close and liver begins to fx

Physiological adaptation
• Heart rate- 120-180 fluctuations due to activity.
• Tachycardia vs. bradycardia
• Blood volume-r/t cord clamping
• Blood components- RBC’S short life
• WBC- stress of labor
• Variations in volume

Physiological Adaptation
• Respiratory-Initiation of breathing
• Surfactant production- reduces surface tension
• Compare C/S vs. NSVD
• Respiration- 30-60
• Periodic breathing is normal, not longer than 15 secs

Types of Heat Loss
• Convection- warm body to cool air currents
• Radiation-heated body to cooler object (no direct contact)
• Evaporation- water converts to vapor
• Conduction- heat loss by contact with cooler surface

Thermoregulation
• Regulates heat loss through O2 consumption and rate of metabolism
• Conservation= increasing metabolism, movement, vasoconstriction, positioning.
• Non shivering thermogenesis– breakdown of brown fat
• Prevention of cold stress- drying, blankets, warmer, skin to skin, assess temp

Physiological Adaptation
• Temperature regulation—IMPORTANT
• Do not chill
• Thermoregulation- newborn has very narrow range
• Vessels close to skin- not able to shiver-lg body surface area- lack fat- unable to conserve heat- Can’t ask for blanket

Liver function
• Bilirubin breakdown of RBC’s
• Liver is immature cannot excrete bilirubin
• Some jaundice normal
• Nsg.- forehead, nose, chin. No pink room
• Interventions- early frequent feedings

GI
• Benefits of Vitamin K and Breastfeeding
• Difficulty digesting fats
• Avoid overfeeding- Burp
• Fluid shift- lose 10% to 15% 0f weight
• Passage of meconium

Physiological Adaptation
• Kidneys-Cannot dispose or concentrate urine
• Immunity- Natural barriers- IgG and IgA
• Sensory- smell, taste, vision
• Reflexes- blinking, moving, startle, suck

Behavioral Adaptation
• First period of reactivity- birth to 30 minutes-initiate breastfeeding
• Sleeping or quiet- sleepy, good time to hold
• Second period- more alert, notice environment

Neurobehavioral
• Orientation- stare- follow objects
• Habituation- block out stimuli
• Motor maturity- able to control hands
• Self quieting- console self
• Social behavior- cuddliness, reciprocal relationship
