SSRI exposure |
tremors, wakefulness, crying |
|
|
hyperbilirumia in first 24 hrs life |
hemolytic disease, pathological |
|
|
Rh incompatability |
mom is rh - and baby is rh+ In second pregnancy these antibodies may enter the fetal circulation where they attack and destroy fetal erythrocytes. Causing erythroblastosis fetalis |
|
|
Intrauterine transfusion |
infusing blood into the umbilical cord of the fetus. |
|
|
Exchange transfusion |
removes sensitized erythrocytes, lowers bilirubin level to prevent encephalopathy. replaces about 85% OF NEONATES blood |
|
|
Creases on soles of feet and hands |
Minimal creases on preterm infants |
|
|
Surfacant |
phospholipid secreted by alveolar. Administered via endotracheal tube into infants trachea |

|
|
|
erythroblastosis fetalis |
Immature RBSs appear in the fetal circulation as the fetus attempts to compensate for the progressive hemolysis and anemia by accelerating the rate of erythtoposiesis. |
