ObjectiveTo investigate the early screening; treatment and care methods of the retinopathy (ROP) of preterm children. Methods210 premature children born in our hospital were selected to conduct eye screening,treatment and care from January to December 2009.The nursing key points were summarized. ResultsAmong 210 preterm children,15 cases occurred ROP,the rate was 7.1%.Lesions appeared to be the threshold for laser treatment in 8 patients(16 eyes),accounting for 3.8%.The ROP morbidity rate was higher in birth weight ≤ 1000 g group than that in birth weight > 1000 g group,higher in gestational age ≤32-week group than that in gestational age> 32 weeks,higher in the inhalation oxygen concentration ≤ 96% group than in inhalation oxygen concentration > 96% group.Significant difference existed in ROP and non-ROP preterm children. ConclusionsThe incidence of retinopathy of premature children was closely related with low gestational age,low birth weight and prolonged and high-concentration oxygen inhalation,timely screening and early intervention care should be given to them.

Objective To explore the methods and effects of parents chaperone for premature infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia(BPD)in neonatal intensive care unit(NICU).Methods Convenience sampling method was used to recruit premature infants diagnosed with BPD admitted from January 2014 to October 2016 in NICU in a tertiary hospital,and 41 premature infants were recruited and divided into the control group (n=19) and the experimental group(n=22) according to the time sequence of admission.Infants in the experimental group was accompanied by parents when diagnosed as BPD,and under the guidance of specialty nurses,parents performed daily care,observation of condition,treatment assistance,and early intervention;infants in the control group were provided traditional nursing mode,nurses performed nursing care,and parents were allowed to visit through the window for one hour each time,three times every week.Parental anxiety was compared between two groups at 1 day before discharge,and follow-up compliance and weight gain of infants were compared at 3 days,7 days,2 weeks,4 weeks after discharge.Results Parental anxiety at 1 day before discharge,and follow-up compliance and weight gain of infants in the experimental group were all better than those in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion Parents chaperone can improve parents' ability of caring,reduce parents' anxiety and improve follow-up compliance after discharge,so as to improve quality of life of premature infants with BPD.
