Nursing process in newborn with hyperbilirubinemia
SEKALOVÁ, Monika
The thesis deals with Nursing process with neonates diagnosed with hyperbilirubinemia. The theoretical part focuses on the physiological and premature new-born babies, anatomy and physiology of blood, neonatal hyperbilirubinemia problems, nursing process and NANDA and NIC classification systems. The practical part contains research results. Qualitative method was used for the research and it was carried out at the neonatal department in Nemocnice Ceske Budejovice, a.s. (Ceske Budejovice Hospital). The first objective was to determine the specifics of nursing care for full-term new-borns and premature new-borns diagnosed with hyperbilirubinemia. It was found that the specifics were mainly in monitoring of the physiological functions, measurement frequency of transcutaneous bilirubinometry, in positioning the new-born during phototherapy, in the prescribed temperature inside the incubator and in children's diets. All information necessary was collected through interviews with nurses, from documentation content analysis and by observation. Based on the information, case studies were developed. The research sample consisted of two new-born babies diagnosed with hyperbilirubinemia. The second objective of the thesis was to determine nurses´ position when using NANDA classification systems to diagnose Neonatal jaundice and NIC Phototherapy: new-born. It was found that nurses would change some defining characteristics and related factors to diagnose Neonatal jaundice (00194) as well asinterventions from NIC Phototherapy: new-born (6924). Most of them agreed that they would not like to use these classifications during care of the new-borns. Information was collected using structured interviews with three neonatal nurses and two midwives. The results could be used to improve nursing care for neonates diagnosed with hyperbilirubinemia.
