OBJECTIVE To explore the into clinical features and nursing measures for neonates with ventilator-associated pneumonia(VAP).METHODS Totally 74 newborns were hospitalized and received ventilating treatment during 2003-2007.RESULTS Thirty out of 74 baby patients have been found out VAP,whose occurring rate was 41.9% and death rate was 14.3%.Its main original bacteria are G-bacteria,covering 82.2% of all bacteria.CONCLUSIONS While we are carrying out ventilating treatment,we must pay much attention to VAP occurance,useing antibiotic correctly and rationally,strengthen ventilator′s air passage management,follow aseptic technique strictly,and shorten the time of ventilator so as to raise the success rate of the ventilating treatment.

Objective To discuss the differences of the types of cerebral palsy and the comorbidity between premature and full-term infants. Methods 233 children with cerebral palsy were divided into premature group (n=98) and full-term group (n=125). The types of cerebral palsy and the complications were analyzed. Results The high risk factors were low birth weight, jaundice, asphyxia, intracranial hemorrhage and cord around neck in sequence in the premature group, and were asphyxia, jaundice, fetal distress, intracranial hemorrhage and intrauterine infection in sequence in the full-term group. Besides auditory handicap. The frequency of spastic diplegia was higher in the premature group than in the full-term group (P<0.001), and the incidence of spastic hemiplegia was higher in the full-term group than in the premature group (P<0.01). There was no significant difference in dysgnosia, epilepsy and visual disturbance (P>0.05), but auditory handicap (P<0.05) between 2 groups. Conclusion The main clinical types of premature and full-term children with cerebral palsy were spastic diplegia and spastic hemiplegia respectively. The prevalence of auditory handicap was higher in preterm children
