Study Notes
Neonatal Adaptations and Maternal Changes After Birth
- Neonatal adaptations occur in respiratory, circulatory, digestive, thermoregulation, and nervous systems.
- Surfactant production in newborns' lungs is triggered by cortisol to aid lung inflation.
- Passing through the birth canal causes the fetus to produce epinephrine, aiding in clearing fluid from the lungs post-birth.
- The three fetal pathways for blood diversion close functionally following birth, but improper closing may lead to patent ductus arteriosus.
- Nutrients for newborns come from storage within the body until they receive milk, with the first bowel movement occurring within the first 4 days of life.
- Newborns' adjustment to cooler environments is challenging due to incomplete thermoregulation, with heat production mainly from brown fat broken down through epinephrine stimulation.
- Fetal assessment involves reflex testing and monitoring behaviors such as clinging, crying, and smiling, with crying also serving as an assessment tool for respiratory function.
- Newborns have morphological features such as oval-shaped heads, soft swelling on the skull, and thin and warm-toned skin, while jaundice and breast tissue swelling are common.
- Premature birth, difficult births, and stillborn births can lead to various disorders in newborns, including congenital hearing loss and sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS).
- Average birth weight in Canada is 3.5 kg, with lower weights potentially increasing the risk for certain illnesses but being protective against others.
- Following birth, a carrier's physiological changes include increased stroke volume and cardio output, frequent urination, and the return of various body functions to normal within weeks.
- Psychological changes in carriers post-birth involve coming to terms with the situation, experiencing baby blues, and potentially developing postpartum depression, with potential effects on sperm donor behavior.
