NEONATAL ADAPTATION
Adaptation :
the process by which one adjusts and becomes more attuned to the environment.

Neonatal adaptation

Functional adjustment from intrauterine to extrauterine life Ability to adjust --- HOMEOSTASIS Maladaptation --- Morbidity

ADAPTATION depend on :
MATURATION NUTRITIONAL STATUS TOLARANCE ADAPTIVE CAPACITY

the potential or ability of a system to adapt to the effects of change


12

NEONATAL ADAPTATION
Adaptation involved multiorgan function,include:
Cardio-circulatory system Respiratory system Intestinal tract Metabolism Central nervous system
13

Circulatory Adaptation
Fetus from 8 weeks until birth organs mature to support external life

Fetal circulation
umbilical-placental circuit via umbilical cord circulatory shunts to bypass
Liver ductus venosus to inferior vena cava Lungs @ foramen ovale between right & left atria @ ductus arteriosus connects pulmonary artery to aorta

CIRCULATORY ADAPTATION

Ductus arteriosus

PATENT DUCTUS ARTERIOSUS

18

CIRCULATORY ADAPTATION
FETAL CIRCULATION
High pulmonary resistance Low resistance in systemic blood flow

RIGHT to LEFT shunt


Foramen Ovale
(Left artrial pressure low because returned lung blood is low and right atrial pressure high due to large volume of blood from placenta)

Ductus arteriosus
(High pulmonary resistance, Low fetal systemic blood and prostaglandin function)
19

CIRCULATORY ADAPTATION
NEONATAL CIRCULATION

Profound changes of circulation at birth Increased pulmonary blood flow due to the drops of pulmonary resistance - lung expansions. Venous return from lung increase. Left arterial press. is raised; Right art.press.decrease foramen ovale closed. Systemic resistance higher than pulmonary resistance (24 hours) Prostaglandin function Ductus close Constrict umbilical arteries and placental blood stops.

PULMONARY ADAPTATION
CHAIN OF EVENTS AFTER FIRST BREATH :
Converts fetal to adult circulation

Empties the lung fluids. Begin pulmonary function.

THE NEWBORN RESPIRATION BEGIN


26

PULMONARY ADAPTATION

FETUS
Alveolus Pulmonary vessels Pulmonary resistance Pulmonary blood Oxygen needs CO2 excretion Colaps Non active High Low Placenta Placenta

NEWBORN
Develops Active Decrease Increase Lung Lung
27

Progressive developments of the duodenum, liver, pancreas and biliary apparatus

Gest.Age 4 wk

Gest.Age 6 wk
Duodenum : occluded - reformation of lumen X atresia Liver & biliary : Begin at 6 and 12 weeks failure to canalization X biliary atresia Pancreas : Insulin secretion and glucagon - 10 and 15 weeks
28

GASTRO INTESTINAL ADAPTATION


FETUS : Caloric and nutritional needs derived from mother placenta.

Intestinal motility non active


No need for enzyme metabolism. NEWBORN Intestinal motility begin in function. Increase needs of calori/nutritional and enzyme metabolism

29

NEONATAL ADAPTATION
GASTROINTESTINAL ADAPTATION
Fetus

Meconium Non function

UROGENITAL ADAPTATION
Renal organogenesis a continuous process 6 till 36 weeks gestation
The developments of urogenital funtion continuous after birth Fetal urine production maintaining amniotic fluid volume More than 90% newborn void in the first 24 hours. Newborn urine production : 1-2 ml/kg BW/hour.
31

UROGENITAL ADAPTATION

ALLERTNESS
OLIGOHYDRAMNIOS
May suggest renal agenesis; hypoplasia; dysplasia; urinary tract obstruction.

POLYHYDRAMNIOS
Gastrointestinal anomalies; transplacental transfusion syndr.; congenital DM

DELAYED MICTURITION (>48 hours)


Inadequate renal perfusion (Hypovolemia/hypoxia); Failure urine production; urine flow obstruction.
32

IMMUNOLOGIC STATUS of the FETUS and NEWBORN


FETUS :
Phagocytic cells Granulocytes cells Monocytes cells Identified at 4 mo gestation.

NEWBORN : Immune system even in term - lower than adults. Between 3-12 mo transient immunodeficiency. The risk enhance by : Prematurity Traumatic delivery Neonatal stress, etc.

PREVENTION FROM INFECTIONS

Body Temperature in the NB

37.5 C

Normal range
36.5 C Cold stress ---------- Cause for concern Moderate hypothermia --- WARM BABY 32.0 C Severe hypothermia / outlook grave Skilled care urgently needed
34

36.0 C

TEMPERATURE ADAPTATION
FETUS : Body temperature intrauterine environment NEWBORN :

Expose to extra uterine condition homeothermy capabilities is limited due to : large surface area; poor thermal insulation; low ability to conserve heat.
PREVENT OF HEAT LOSS
