Birth of a "resident" killer whale The neonate was re-sighted about 10 minutes later, swimming between two adult females, L55 and L27, who were circling with the rest of the group about 1 m apart. The neonate, with its dorsal surface toward the adult's belly, was lifted partially out of the water by the other whale. On several occasions, the neonate was thrown part-way into the air, and once one or more whales in the group tail lobbed on top of, or very close to, the neonate. www.cascadiaresearch.org /Robin/birthnot.htm   (1737 words)

AllRefer Health - Brachial Palsy in the Neonate (Erb-Duchenne Paralysis, Erb's Palsy, Klumpke Paralysis) Brachial palsy in the neonate is a paralysis or weakness of the arm caused by damage to the brachial plexus (the collection of nerves around the shoulder). Neonatal brachial nerve injuries can occur during a difficult delivery when the infant's head and neck are pulled toward the side while the shoulders are passing through the birth canal. The condition can also be caused by excessive traction on the shoulders during a vertex delivery (head first) or by pressure on the raised arms during a breech delivery (feet first). health.allrefer.com /health/brachial-palsy-in-the-neonate-info.html   (472 words)

Pain in the Neonate Many sick neonates who are surviving through intensive care and surgery today would not have lived 20 years ago. Unless a neonatalogist had made a concerted effort to study the topic of pain, a subject that has not until now been in the forefront of concern in neonatal care, he or she would not have had easy access to most of the information in the Anand study. Consequently any decision to withhold anesthetic agents ought not to be based on the infant's age or perceived degree of cortical maturity; it should be based on the same criteria used in older patients. www.cirp.org /library/pain/fletcher   (1048 words)

The Neonate and Colostrum   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05) In the latter cases, maternal immunoglobulins are transported to the fetus before birth and the neonate is born with high concentrations of immunoglobulins inthe blood. Humeral immune protection (immunoglobulins) is supplied to the neonate by a process of transfer of passive immunity from the mother to the neonate. This process of transfer of immunoglobulins from mother to the young is of paramount importance to neonate survival. classes.aces.uiuc.edu /AnSci308/neonatecolostrum.html   (2872 words)

Toxoplasma and the Neonate Specific IgG in the neonate serum may be actively produced or passively acquired from the mother. In summary, the initial investigation of a neonate suspected of having congenital toxoplasmosis should involve the testing of current maternal and infant sera as well as a maternal booking clinic sample. When the neonate is asymptomatic and laboratory results are equivocal, potentially toxic antiparasitic drugs should be withheld. www.btinternet.com /~ukneqas.parasitologyscheme/Toxoplasma_Scheme/Teaching_Information/Toxoplasma_and_the_Neonate/toxoplasma_and_the_neonate.html   (262 words)

Neonate Sepsis Neonate's Mother's History: 30 year old, gravida 1, para 1, married, supportive husband and extended family in local area, and employed full time. Testing the mother for GBS is one of the ways they are trying to decrease costs, because they are trying to preventing any insult to the neonate by prophylactically treating the mother during labor (Parks et al, 2000). We as health care providers need to be aware of the major causes of infection of neonates and realize the importance of them for the neonate's life and to decrease costs. learn.sdstate.edu /craigg/Frederickson.html   (1754 words)

Prevention and management of pain and stress in the neonate   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05) Neonates who were exposed to numerous painful and noxious stimuli between postconceptual weeks 28 and 32 showed different behavioural and physiological responses to pain compared with neonates of a similar postconceptual age who had not had such experiences (40). The environment should be as conducive as possible to the well-being of the neonate and the family (50,51). Studies are lacking on the management of pain in neonatal conditions associated with extensive tissue damage and those resulting in recurrent or chronic pain (eg, necrotizing enterocolitis, meningitis, fractured bones). www.cps.ca /english/statements/FN/fn00-01.htm   (5421 words)

Emerald Care Sheet   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05) Our Neonates are kept in a 2.5 gal terrarium or even a plastic quart container with screen on top secured by a rubber band. Neonates also don't eat much since they have a low activity level (they sit in one spot for the most part unless they are hungry and looking for food) which results in the neonates eating about once every 2-3 weeks. Every neonate is different which is what drives a beginner crazy and an experienced keeper to consider why he produces a litter every year to go through this. www.thedarkgrove.com /webpages/Emeraldcaresheet.html   (1460 words)

Neonatal Intensive Care Educational Goals The overall goal and objective of the rotations for the pediatric residents in the Neonatal Intensive Care Nursery is to gain extensive experience in the recognition and care of the high-risk, low-birth-weight, preterm (<2200gm or <34wks) and term neonate who requires intensive or intermediate care, surgery, or evaluation by other pediatric specialists. To gain experience with common procedures used in the care and stabilization of the sick neonate, which include spinal taps, superpubic bladder aspiration, umbilical venous and arterial catheter placement, neonatal intubation and stabilization, the placement of chest tubes versus the use of thoracentesis for treatment of pneumothorax, and to understand the indications for each procedure. While the rotation as a first year resident through the Neonatal Intensive Care Nursery introduces the resident to the problems of the preterm and sick neonate, the primary emphasis is on the care of the preterm infant without major complications. www.utsouthwestern.edu /utsw/cda/dept107923/files/116061.html   (754 words)

Prevention and Management of Pain and Stress in the Neonate Several experts suggest that the neonate's expression of pain does not fit within the strict definition of the International Association for the Study of Pain because of the requirement for self-report. Neonates who were exposed to numerous painful and noxious stimuli between postconceptual weeks 28 and 32 showed different behavioral and physiological responses to pain compared with neonates of a similar postconceptual age who had not had such experiences.
