Patient's question:
The hazards of sepsis are significant, causing great impact on the baby's health and causing distress to parents. In severe cases, it can even lead to death, so it is crucial to provide careful care. So, what are the nursing measures for neonatal sepsis?Doctor's answer:
Maintain stable body temperature for the baby. Infants with sepsis are prone to fluctuating body temperature. In addition to infection factors, infants are also easily affected by environmental factors. When the body temperature is low or does not rise, timely warming measures should be taken. When the body temperature is too high, physical cooling and more water should be used. Local injuries such as umbilical inflammation and skin damage should be treated promptly to promote early recovery and prevent the infection from spreading further.
