Phototherapy

52
Q

What 4 things does phototherapy cause?

Q

Should infants eyes be protected when under bili lights?

55
Q

Glycemic levels in neonates?

A

Hypoglycemia quickly

56
Q

Why do they get hypoglycemic quickly? (2)

A

Glycogen stores are small

Gluconeogenesis is immature

57
Q

GFR compared to adults?

A

25% of adult values

58
Q

Lower esophageal sphincter formation?

A

Incompetent so increase risk of reflux; always considered full stomach

59
Q

Heat is lost when the surface dries

A

Evaporation

60
Q

Placed on a cooler surface or touching them with a cool object or hands

A

Conduction

61
Q

Heat is transferred to the air surround the infant heat loss

A

Convection

62
Q

Transfer of heat to cool objects that are no in direct contact with neonate

63
Q

Heat gain/loss controlled by?

A

Hypothalamus and limbic system

64
Q

Temp sensors on what and stimulate what?

A

On posterior hypothalamus stimulate pituitary to produce T4 and adrenals to produce NoE

65
Q

Blood vessels are what to the surface?

66
Q

Can neonates vasoconstrict?

67
Q

As infant gets cold, what happens?

A

Activates NorE release (controlled by hypothalamus) that leads to pulmonary and peripheral vasoconstriction (increased pulmonary vascular resistance)
