Introduction • Premature birth and low birth weight
(LBW) still a health problems in newborn
• Morbidity and mortality still high accordingly to the complication
• Medical and technology development leads to increasing the survival at high risk of LBW for long term neurocognitive deficits .

Introduction (2)
• The normal birth weight of is > 2500 to 3000 gm. • Low birth weight or LBW :
birth weight of less than 2500 gm regardless to gestational age
• Incidence : 15 – 30 % • Neonatal deaths : 75 % due to LBW • Infant deaths : 50 % caused by LBW • Complication :
– Prone to malnutrition – Recurrent infection – Neurodevelopmental handicaps

LBW: Indications for hospitalization
Birth weight <1800 g Gestation <34 wks Unable to feed* Sick neonate* Irrespective of birth weight
and gestation

Danger signals (Early detection and referral)
Lethargy, refusal to feed Hypothermia Tachypnea, grunt, gasping, apnea Seizures, vacant stare Abdominal distension Bleeding, icterus over palms/soles

Management of Newborn Illness
• Education of mothers to recognize danger signals
• Working with families to develop complication plan for newborns
• Early recognition and appropriate management of newborn illness
![Page 11: Management of LOW BIRTH WEIGHT BABY](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062418/553afcb04a7959d8258b45fd/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
11
Minimum Preparation for any BirthThe following should be available and in
working order:• Heat source • Mucus extractor• Self-inflating bag of newborn size • 2 masks (for normal and small
newborns) • 1 clock• At least one person skilled in newborn
resuscitation present at birth

Care of the Low Birth Weight Newborn
• Birth weight = Gestation duration + intrauterine growth– Most low birth weight newborns in
developing countries are term or near term (Small for gestation age)
– Increased risk of hypothermia and poor growth
![Page 13: Management of LOW BIRTH WEIGHT BABY](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062418/553afcb04a7959d8258b45fd/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
13
Delivery management
• LBW is prone to be asphyxiated • Management at birth accordingly
to Guidelines of Resuscitation (AHA/AAP)
• Consider : – Early intubation – Early CPAP – Prevent hypothermia– Prevent hyperoxia

Principles of Management for Low Birth Weight and Preterm Newborns
• Warmth• Feeding• Detection and management of
complications (e.g., resuscitation, assisted respiration, infection )
![Page 19: Management of LOW BIRTH WEIGHT BABY](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062418/553afcb04a7959d8258b45fd/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
19
Warmth
As for all newborns:• Lay newborn on mother’s abdomen or
other warm surface• Dry newborn with clean (warm) cloth
or towel• Remove wet towel and wrap/cover
with a second dry towel• Bathe after temperature is stable

Definition of Kangaroo Mother Care
• Early, prolonged and continuous skin-to-skin contact between a mother and her newborn
• Could be in hospital or after early discharge
![Page 25: Management of LOW BIRTH WEIGHT BABY](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062418/553afcb04a7959d8258b45fd/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

26
How to Use Kangaroo Mother Care• Newborn’s position:
– Held upright (or diagonally) and prone against skin of mother, between her breasts
– Head is on its side under mother’s chin, and head, neck and trunk are well extended to avoid obstruction to airways
• Newborn’s clothing:– Usually naked except for nappy and cap– May be dressed in light clothing– Mother covers newborn with her own
clothes and added blanket or shawl
![Page 27: Management of LOW BIRTH WEIGHT BABY](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062418/553afcb04a7959d8258b45fd/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
27
• Newborn should be:– Breastfed on demand– Supervised closely and temperature
monitored regularly• Mother needs lots of support because
kangaroo care:– Is very tiring for her– Restricts her freedom– Requires commitment to continue

Effectiveness of Kangaroo Mother Care
• Randomized controlled trial• Conducted in three tertiary and teaching
hospitals in Ethiopia, Indonesia and Mexico• Study effectiveness, feasibility, acceptability
and cost of kangaroo mother care when compared to conventional methods of care
Cattaneo et al 1998.

Benefits of Kangaroo Mother Care (1)• Is efficient way of keeping newborn warm• Helps breathing of newborn to be more
regular; reduce frequency of apneic spells• Promotes breastfeeding, growth and extra-
uterine adaptation• Increases the mother’s confidence, ability
and involvement in the care of her small newborn
• Seems to be acceptable in different cultures and environments

• Contributes to containment of cost— salaries, running costs (electricity, etc.) Increases the mother’s confidence, ability and involvement in the care of her small newborn
• Seems to be acceptable in different cultures and environments
• Contributes to containment of cost— salaries, running costs (electricity, etc.)

31
Feeding
• Early and exclusive breastfeeding– Breastmilk = best nourishment– Already warm temperature– Facilitated by kangaroo care
• If Breast milk is not availble, consider milk formula : Preterm formula --- until 2000 gm then change to After Discharged Formula

45
APNEIC SPELL : APNEA OF PREMATURITY
• Very often : < 1500 grams • Complication : Hypoxemia Oxygenation and breathing stimulation :
Aminophylline or Theophylline Mechanical Ventilator

46
HYPOGLYCAEMIA
• Awarness of symptoms , sometime asymptomatic • Blood Glucose level • Hypoglycemia : < 45 mg/dL • Dextrose infusion • Glucose Infusion Rate ( G I R )

47
INTRAVENTRICULAR HEMORRHAGE
• Due to weakness of blood brain barrier and hypoxemia • Decreasing of consicousness , deficit
neurologics, seizure • USG or CT scan • Consult to Pediatric Neurology Division
and Neurosurgery
![Page 48: Management of LOW BIRTH WEIGHT BABY](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062418/553afcb04a7959d8258b45fd/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
48
METABOLIC ACIDOSIS
• Due to hypothermia, hypoxemia and infection
• Confirmed by clinically and laboratory• Shoulde corrected by considering
anion gap • Administration of bicarbonate : awarness of false route
![Page 49: Management of LOW BIRTH WEIGHT BABY](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062418/553afcb04a7959d8258b45fd/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)

SUMMARY • Premature birth and low birth weight (LBW) still a health
problem with high Morbidity and mortality • The survival at high risk of LBW for long term
neurocognitive deficits • Two types of LBW : premature and IUGR • Problems accordingly to the type • Management consist of : warmth, feeding, management
of complication• Breast feeding is prioritized, in case of breastmilk is not
available, consider milk formula
