발육단계
소아기의 구분
출생 전기 (prenatal period)
신생아기 (neonatal period)
• 생후 4주간 (좁은 의미 생후 1주간)
• Perinatal period (주산기): 재태 22주-생후 1주
사망과 장기 예후 관련
• 영아기 (infancy) : 1개월-1년 (2년)
• 유아기 (preschool period or early childhood): 2세-5세
• 학령기 (prepuberal period or late childhood): 6-10세
• 사춘기(Puberty), 청소년기(Adolescence):11-20세, 개인차
• 남자: 12-20년
• 여자: 10-18년

Newborn Infant
Definition of the Newborn
Infants below 28 days of life
Transition from dependent fetal period to non-dependent neonatal period
Most friable period of whole ages
The fetal to neonatal
metabolic transition
Function Before After
Temperature Uterine Brown fat
Gas exchange Placenta Lung
Waste Placenta Kidney
Activity Do nothing Eat and move
Energy Maternal glucose Fat & CHO
Environment Peace & Quiet Stress & Strain
Succes in transition
Ca. 10% : require some assistance
1% : need extensive resuscitation
90% : transition witout difficulty
Body Temperature Control
Easy to lose heat
- Relatively large body surface area
- Poor Insulation
Mechanisms of heat loss
- Convection, Evaporation,
Radiation, Conduction
Cold Stress :
- Hypoxia, Hypoglycemia, Acidosis
Hematologic Values at Birth
Site of Sampling
•Capillary samples higher than venous
-Especially if prematurity, hypotension, acidosis, anemia
Treatment of Umbilical Vessels
•Placental vessels contain 75-125 mls blood
•Can increase blood volume of newborn by 61%
•Placing infant below mother increases placental
transfusion, completion within 30 sec
Blood Volume
•Term 85 ml/kg
•Preterm 90-105 ml/kg
•One month 75 ml/kg
Hemostasis in the Newborn
Platelet-vessel interaction
•Adhesion-Platelets bind exposed collagen via
surface glycoprotein lb Von Willebrand
factor interaction
•Aggregation-Platelets activated (by collagen
binding) and expose fibrinogen binding sites
(glycoproteins llb-llla)
Normal platelet cts, but decreased platelet aggregation in newborns
Bleeding time normal (modified template of lvy bleeding time device)
Hemostasis in the Newborn
Procoaqulant System
•Coagulation proteins synthesized by fetus
•Coagulation proteins do not cross placenta
•Appear by 10 weeks, increase t/o gestation
•Fibrinogen conc. slighly lower at birth
•Normal levels of V, VIII, and vWF
•"Physiologically" low levels of vit K
dependent factors II, VII, IX and X
Circulation anatomy
Fetal vs Neonatal
Placental Circulation
Ductus Arteriosus
Ductus Venosus
Foramen Ovale
Pulmonary Vasculature
Myocardium
FETAL CIRCULATION
Normal Anatomy
PLACENTAL CIRCULATION
interruption of flow
Immediate Decrease in Pre-load
Immediate Increase in After-load
DUCTUS VENOSUS
Mechanism of Closure not
well understood
Probably Passive
DUCTUS ARTERIOSUS
Functional Closure at 10-15 hr.
Constriction of Media due to O2
Obliteration may take weeks
Effect of Vasoactive Substances
- less well defined
PULMONARY VASCULATURE
Fetal
Very High PVR Early in Gestation
Progressive Rise in PAP
Rise in QP (3-10%) thru gestation
PULMONARY VASCULATURE
Newborn
Increased media:lumen Ratio
Immediate Rapid Fall in PVR
Slower Further Fall in PVR
FORAMEN OVALE
Passive Closure due to
increased left atrial flow
and resultant increase
in pressure
MYOCARDIUM
Immature
Myocyte division only in fetus
and early newborn
Smaller percentage of contractile
proteins and mitochondria
PHYSIOLOGY
Fetal vs Neonatal
Pressure
Flow
Resistance
Contractility
RESISTANCE CHANGES
Decrease in PVR
Increase in SVR
PRESSURE CHANGES
Decrease in PAP due to
decrease in PVR
Increase in LAP due to
increase in PBF
FLOW CHANGES
PDA flow changes to L to R
FO flow changes to Lto R
and dimishes rapidly
CONTRACTILITY
Immature Myocardium
High Resting Tension
Diminished Active Response
MYOCARDIAL MECHANICS
Immature vs Mature
Contractile Proteins
Energy Utilization
Calcium Metabolism
MYOCARDIAL MECHANICS
Contractile Proteins
Myosin Heavy Chain*
Myosin Light Chain
Actin
Tropomyosin*
Troponin C
Troponin I*
Troponin T*
MYOCARDIAL MECHANICS
Contractile Proteins
Troponin I - inhibits Actin-
Myosin interactions
Troponin T- binds troponin
complex to thin fillament
MYOCARDIAL MECHANICS
Immature
Myofibril number:
fetus < newborn < adult
ATPase increases with maturation
ATPase determines velocity of
muscle shortening
MYOCARDIAL MECHANICS
Energy Utilization
Mitochondria are major source of
high energy phosphate
Decreased number of MC in
immature myocardium
Relative lack of enzyme for FFA
transport into MC
MYOCARDIAL MECHANICS
Calcium Metabolism
SR poorly formed in immature
Ca uptake by SR is depressed
Function of SR increases with
maturation
SUMMARY
Anatomy
Changes re-route blood
Flow to adapt to extra-uterine
environment
SUMMARY
Physiology
Changes (most notably in PVR)
permit the circulation to sustain
life as maturation progresses
SUMMARY
Myocardial Mechanics
Adaptation to extra-uterine condition is more gradual, probably because of the cellular and molecular processes involved
Infection Control - Basic Principles
Exclude ill personnel/visitors
(often the source)
- Respiratory Infection (RSV common)
- Skin Infection
- Diarhea
- Fever
- Cold Sores (Herpes Labialis)
Orient to Universal Precautions & Isolation Procedures
The usual problem is Poor Handwashing!
Handwashing
◆ 2 minute scurb at beginning of day
◆ 15 second wash before and after touching any patient
◆ A void self-contamination - touching eyes, face, nose, mouth, phone, other, objects not exclusive to the patient
Clothing
◆ Clean scrub suit or gown when holding newborn
◆ Hats. shoe covers, masks not routinely required
Renal Response to Sodium Load
Normal adult renal response to Na load is to increase Na excretion.
Newborn kidney able to respond to Na load but, not as well as adult.
- proximal tubule decreases FRN
- but distal nephron increases Na reabsorption
more than adult
- net result is less Na excretion in newborn
than adult
Preterm infant < 36 weeks responds better to Na load than term infant
Excretion of K in Neonate
Mechanisms qualitatively similar in immature and mature kidney
Newborn cannot excrete K load as well as adult
↓K secretory ability of distal nephron
↓Distal Na-K-ATPase activity
?↓ response to aldosterone
↓distal H2O & Na delivery (due to low GFR)
permeability characteristics of cell membranes
Response to H2O Load
Newborns do not respond as well as adults to H2O load
- Low GFR
Newborn can produce very dilute urine (50 mosm/L)
Fetus can and does produce dilute urine
Neonatal Concentrating Ability
Neonate cannot concentrate urine
as well as adult
Adult maximum 1200 - 1400 mosm/L
Newborn maximum 600 - 700 mosm/L
Renal Glucose Handling
Glucose usually reabsorbed completely in proximal tubule
Maximum glucose reabsorption (TmG) lower in newborn than adult kidney
However, TmG/GFR equivalent in both groups
Renal threshold for glucose (level of plasma glucose at which glucose is excreted) lower in newborn than adult.
Glucose threshold
Glucose excreted at lower plasma glucose in younger animal
Thus newborn especially preterm infant more likely to spill glucose
Thus newborn prone to osmotic diuresis
Thus solute & H2O excretion increases & H2O intake requirements increase when glucose excreted.
Changes in Body H2O
with Development
TBW (as % body weight) falls with development mostly in fetal, neonatal and early infant period.
Fall in TBW due to fall in ECF.
FLUID BALANCE
Fluid Balance = Intake - Output
Output -Urine
-GI
-Skin
-Lungs
