Abstract:
Objective:To explore the effect of kangaroo care on the neurological behavior of neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) neonates with asphyxia.Methods:Totally 76 cases of neonatal asphyxia admitted to NICU from January 2018 to December 2018 were randomly divided into observation group (40 cases) and observation group (36 cases). The control group was given routine nursing care, while the observation group was given kangaroo nursing intervention on the basis of the control group. The neurobehavioral changes, the occurrence of nervous system damage and the physical development after 42 days of birth were compared between the two groups.Results:The scores of behavior ability (11.64 ± 0.26), original reflex (5.89 ± 0.32), passive muscle tension (7.64 ± 0.46), active muscle tension (7.83 ± 0.55), general reaction (6.17 ± 0.46) in the intervention observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group (11.02 ± 0.39), original reflex (5.53 ± 0.31), passive muscle tension (7.21 ± 0.47), active muscle tension (6.17 ± 0.46) Tension (7.41 ± 0.41), general reaction (5.88 ± 0.41) ( t values were 8.227, 4.970, 4.027, 3.740, 2.888, P<0.05). The incidence of neurological damage in the observation group was 2.50% (1/40) which was significantly lower than 16.67% (6/36) in the control group ( χ 2=4.117, P < 0.05). The growth of body weight (2.17 ± 0.42) kg, length (7.15 ± 1.74) cm and head circumference (4.38 ± 0.93) cm in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group (1.68 ± 0.39) kg, (5.89 ± 1.81) cm, (3.81 ± 0.79) cm ( t values were 5.252, 3.093, 2.863, P<0.05). Conclusion:Kangaroo nursing can effectively promote the neurological development and physical development of neonatal asphyxia, and reduce the nervous system damage of asphyxiated neonates, and the operation is simple and easy, which is worthy of clinical application.
