Asphyxia neonatorum - assessment of the infant at birth
Get PDFAsphyxia neonatorum is defined as failure of a newborn infant to establish sustained respiration after its complete delivery. In 206 asphyxiated infants reviewed, details of the Apgar scores,Ā time to sustained respiration and resuscitation required, were documented. The value of each of these observations, as well as that of the heartĀ rate and acid-base status after birth, is assessed. FromĀ the findings definite recommendations for the routine assessment of the infant at birth are made.S. Afr. Med. J., 48, 2139 (1974)
Health care of children
Get PDFIt is estimated that at the present rate of population growth, at least 21,5 million children under the age of 14 years will require health care by the year 2000. With the available medical manpower, it is not possible to provideĀ the present child population with the uniformly high standard of health care to which they are entitled. It isĀ urged that Paediatric Nurse Associates be trained to assist in this regard. A preliminary report of the training scheme introduced for Paediatric Nurse Associates at the Red Cross War Memorial Children's Hospital is presented for discussion and criticism.S. Afr. Med.
