Umbilical cord connecting the fetus and the mother of vital organs. When tiny fetus within the mother\'s uterus, is through the umbilical cord blood, transport, receive the oxygen and nutrients from the mother, only to normal growth and development.
Children was born Hou, need do of first pieces thing is broken umbilical, this pieces appears to is simple of things if processing improper or broken umbilical Hou nursing bad, for example broken umbilical of appliances (knife or shear) without strictly high temperature, and high pressure disinfection; broken umbilical Shi no formal no bacteria operation; ligation line is not disinfection and umbilical cord residual end shedding before and after no is good to disinfection nursing and so on, disease original body on may infection umbilical cord of residual end, this growth propagation, led umbilical Department inflammation. More serious is, it may become pathogens enter the body of portals and channels, causing severe systemic infection, can often endanger the child\'s life. Such as neonatal tetanus, sepsis, suppurative meningitis.
Main pathogens of neonatal umbilical infection is bacteria, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli see, often caused by Pyogenic change, umbilical cord round the light and skin irritation around the navel, and purulent secretions; weight around the umbilicus and skin visible swelling or lump, purulent secretions more and often foul smell. Without timely treatment for treatment, the infection may spread to the surrounding, cause abdominal wall cellulitis, cutaneous gangrene, spread to the deepest part and even lead to peritonitis, or you can spread along the umbilical vein are not fully locking, and Pyogenic liver abscess caused by systemic infection of Portal vein inflammation as well as the previously mentioned.
This shows that neonatal umbilical infection is far from trivial, medical staff and parents attention must, to prevention. Prevention is the key to breaking when the umbilical cord should be strictly aseptic operation, broken appliances and ligation of the umbilical cord of lines will have to be strictly sterilized. In the event of an emergency, disinfection when the birth attendant is not strict, should be in the broken cord again and again within a few hours strictly sterilized umbilical cord stump. Before and after the umbilical cord stump off, changing diapers, keep umbilical clean dry, available 75% medical erased with alcohol every day around the umbilical stump and 2-3. If you have a scab formation, erased when alcohol crust should be set off from the inside out erased can really play the role of disinfection. Attention should also be drugs not to be using gentian violet, mercurochrome, in colour, because the color of the drug to observation of the effect of umbilical; do not use the Songhua powder, powdered drugs such as talcum powder, powdered stimulation may cause the umbilicus on chronic inflammation and foreign body Granuloma formed and difficult to heal. If you find that umbilical cord such as redness or purulent secretion of inflammatory, should go to the hospital in time.
Treatment of neonatal Omphalitis is not complicated. Light cord weeks of non-proliferation can be partially erased six iodine and 2% alcohol, 2-3 times a day. If more pus, umbilical cord swelling is apparent or with systemic symptoms, not including local disinfection, or systemic antimicrobial therapy should be carried out. To doctors under smear of pus when selecting appropriate antibiotics or bacteria culture.
All in all, Omphalitis of newborn is not a disease, it can lead to disaster. As a parent must pay more attention.
