Tips for taking blue light for your baby

Tips for taking blue light for your baby. Many people don't understand that your baby needs to take blue light. Your baby needs to look for blue light because jaundice is more serious, so you need to take blue light treatment. Let's share the baby's tips for shooting blue light, hoping to help everyone!

Tips Babies take Blu-ray 1 1, with little side effects.

Many people think that blue light will have side effects, because in the process of blue light irradiation, the baby may have diarrhea and fever, which does not particularly affect phototherapy.

2, pay attention to check whether the baby's skin is damaged.

Because phototherapy exposes the newborn to the incubator, each baby's skin sensitivity is different, so it is necessary to check whether the baby's skin is damaged in time during or after irradiation, so as to deal with it in time.

3. Pay attention to the basis for stopping phototherapy.

Some family members may think that the baby's jaundice has subsided and there is no need for phototherapy. This is not right, jaundice regression can not be used as a basis to stop phototherapy. In addition, phototherapy is not only aimed at treating jaundice.

4, can be carried out at the same time as breast milk.

According to the blue light display, it needs to be done in the incubator. Many women who have just given birth think they can't breastfeed in time. In fact, this does not affect breastfeeding. They can express breast milk and give it to professional medical staff for feeding.

5. Appropriate supplementation of other vitamins.

Blue light can decompose vitamin b2 in the body, so if you are exposed to blue light for more than 24 hours, you should supplement your baby with vitamin B2 appropriately to avoid vitamin imbalance in the body.

6. Irradiation time.

Generally, blue light lasts for 24-48 hours and should not exceed 72 hours, that is, 3 days. The longer the better.

Is it uncomfortable for babies to shoot blue light?

The answer to the question whether the baby is uncomfortable shooting blue light is that the child is not uncomfortable. Children shooting blue light is just like sunbathing, because blue light is actually the wavelength light source contained in sunlight, so children usually shoot blue light in a blue light box or a warm box with blue light.

Generally, children's clothes will be taken off as much as possible, because the light area is very meaningful to the effect of phototherapy, so they will be taken off as much as possible, leaving only diapers and a small eye mask to cover the children's eyes and genitals to avoid being affected by blue light.

The children will be exposed to the sun in the incubator. Sunshine itself has no effect on children, and children will not feel uncomfortable. The activities in the incubator will not be restricted, and the child can have completely normal activities, including breastfeeding. When breastfeeding, the blue light irradiation will be stopped, so that the child can breastfeed normally first.

So according to the blue light itself, the child didn't feel uncomfortable. Blue light is recognized as the safest and most effective way to remove yellow in the world, so parents don't have to worry.

Tips Baby takes blue light 2 1 to cover eyes and perineum.

Newborns will lie in the phototherapy box, and their eyes will be protected by black eye patches to avoid damaging the retina. The perineum and anus will be covered with diapers, and the rest will be exposed.

Suggestion: Expose your baby's skin as much as possible, but at the same time pay attention to protecting your eyes and genitals, wear eye patches and diapers to prevent phototherapy injuries.

2, closely observe the changes in the condition.

In the process of phototherapy, we should observe the mental reaction and vital signs of children, pay attention to the location, degree and change of jaundice, the color and characteristics of urine and stool, whether the skin is red, dry and rash, whether there is apnea, irritability, lethargy and fever. Pay attention to the changes of sucking ability and crying.

Attention: strengthen the examination, and report to the doctor in time for symptomatic treatment if there are convulsions, apnea and cyanosis. Stop phototherapy immediately if you have bronze disease.

3. Pay attention to temperature changes

Check the body temperature regularly, every 2 ~ 3 hours 1 time. If the child's body temperature exceeds 37.5℃, you can properly open the blue bedspread on the child or physically cool down. If the temperature is below 36℃, cover the child with clothes.

It is suggested that the temperature should be controlled at 36 ~ 37.5℃.

Step 4 prevent dehydration

During phototherapy, children should be replenished with water in time. In addition to rehydration, they should be milked 8 ~ 12 times a day, and boiled water should be fed frequently between feedings to minimize water loss.

Note: It is necessary to accurately record the inflow and outflow in 24 hours, and those with poor food should be given intravenous infusion in time during phototherapy.

1. Pay attention to stool and vomiting: pay attention to the nature and color of stool, lie on your side when vomiting, and pay attention to the nature and quantity of vomiting. In addition, children should not be too full every time, not more than 30ml each time, so as not to cause vomiting.

2. Observation of curative effect: Pay attention to the color of children's skin and sclera. Assist the doctor to understand the time of jaundice regression and adjust the treatment plan in time. Generally, continuous illumination for 24 hours, except for the covered parts, jaundice will be significantly reduced.

If yellowing is not obvious, it can be extended to 72 hours. At the same time, pay attention to whether the child has edema to prevent hypoproteinemia caused by long irradiation time and destruction of red blood cells. Serum bilirubin should be measured regularly and the effect should be reported to the doctor.

What if the baby keeps crying according to the blue light?

1, calm down, usually put the baby in a Blu-ray box. The baby is genuinely afraid and insecure, so he will cry. Try to calm down the baby's emotions and let the baby hear his mother's voice.

2, hydrating, according to blue light will cause the baby's body to heat up and be in a state of water shortage. There is a great demand for water, which must be replenished in time.

3, protect key parts, according to blue light to protect the baby's safe parts, such as boys' testicles, girls' ovaries, blue light has certain damage to the retina, which will cause keratitis and dermatitis, so we must take certain measures under the premise of health and safety.

Usually Blu-ray can be discharged in a week. At this time, the baby will have obvious anxiety. You can give the baby a bath and massage before going to bed every night, which can alleviate the baby's fear.

At the same time, it is more conducive to the quality of sleep at night. For newborns, sleep quality plays a key role in intellectual and physical development.

Is jaundice harmful according to blue light?

At present, there is no special treatment for the disease, but bronzing is a harmless and benign natural process, which can fade by itself and has no effect on the prognosis, mental and physical development of the disease.

We should actively treat the causes of bilirubin elevation and jaundice. The prognosis of the disease is good, and the symptoms and signs can disappear by themselves.

The prevention and nursing of neonatal jaundice should pay attention to the following points:

(1) Fetal jaundice often affects the fetus because the pregnant mother is attacked by damp heat, resulting in jaundice after birth. Therefore, during pregnancy, pregnant mothers should pay attention to moderate diet, but eat cold food, but not too hungry, and avoid alcohol and spicy products to prevent damage to the spleen and stomach.

(2) If a woman has given birth to a baby with fetal jaundice, she should take preventive measures when she is pregnant again and take Chinese medicine on time.

(3) After the baby is born, closely observe the scleral jaundice, and find that jaundice should be treated as soon as possible, and observe the color change of jaundice to understand the advance and retreat of jaundice.

(4) Pay attention to the general symptoms of Huang Baobao, whether there are symptoms such as listlessness, lethargy, difficulty in sucking milk, anxiety, strabismus, stiff limbs or convulsions, so as to find and deal with severely ill children as soon as possible.

(5) Closely observe the changes of heart rate, heart sound, anemia degree and liver size to prevent and treat heart failure at an early stage.

(6) Pay attention to protect the baby's skin, navel and buttocks from damage and infection.

(7) When blood exchange treatment is needed, the air in the ward should be disinfected in time, blood and various medicines and articles should be prepared, and the operation procedures should be strictly implemented.
