Asphyxia Neonatorum
Disease Overview
As soon as the baby is born, naturally, it starts crying loudly. If the child does not cry on the ground, is suffocated and lying as if to die, then if saliva accumulates in the mouth and nose, immediately remove the saliva with a finger and cover the body with a warm cloth and splash cold water on the face. Even if the child is not conscious, gently give air through the mouth of the child. The chest will slowly circulate gently with the hands. If the baby's heart starts working in response to this, other nursing cares will follow. Many times, because midwives are inexperienced in all these matters, babies die prematurely.
Diet & Regimen Guidelines
- If the saliva accumulates in the mouth and nose, immediately remove the saliva with the fingers and cover the body with a warm cloth and splash cold water on the face. Even if the child is not conscious, gently give air through the mouth of the child. The chest will slowly circulate gently with the hands. If the baby's heart starts working in response to this, other nursing cares will follow. The above tasks should be done very carefully. By this method the dead body was able to breathe even after being buried. Unless the baby is crying or breathing properly, the baby's pulse should not be taken. Before cutting the pulse, take a thick thread and fasten the pulse two to three fingers away from the navel, tie another knot on it one finger away. Then the pulse is cut with a new knife or a new blade. After taking the pulse, cover the baby's body with a warm cloth until bathing.
