| | Prevention and management of pain and stress in the neonate |
 | | Neonates who were exposed to numerous painful and noxious stimuli between postconceptual weeks 28 and 32 showed different behavioural and physiological responses to pain compared with neonates of a similar postconceptual age who had not had such experiences (40). | | | Studies are lacking on the management of pain in neonatal conditions associated with extensive tissue damage and those resulting in recurrent or chronic pain (eg, necrotizing enterocolitis, meningitis, fractured bones). | | | Pharmacological analgesia should be chosen carefully based on comprehensive assessment of the neonate, efficacy and safety of the drug, the clinical setting, and experience of the personnel using the drug. |

| | Pain in the Neonate |
| | Many sick neonates who are surviving through intensive care and surgery today would not have lived 20 years ago. | | | One must remember that neonatalogy, and perhaps neonatal anesthesiology specifically, are relatively new fields. | | | The two most commonly used are the narcotic fentanyl and lidocaine, which is locally infiltrated into the skin used as a nerve block. |

| | Neonatal Intensive Care Educational Goals |
| | To gain experience with common procedures used in the care and stabilization of the sick neonate, which include spinal taps, superpubic bladder aspiration, umbilical venous and arterial catheter placement, neonatal intubation and stabilization, the placement of chest tubes versus the use of thoracentesis for treatment of pneumothorax, and to understand the indications for each procedure. | | | While the rotation as a first year resident through the Neonatal Intensive Care Nursery introduces the resident to the problems of the preterm and sick neonate, the primary emphasis is on the care of the preterm infant without major complications. | | | The overall goal and objective of the rotations for the pediatric residents in the Neonatal Intensive Care Nursery is to gain extensive experience in the recognition and care of the high-risk, low-birth-weight, preterm (<2200gm or <34wks) and term neonate who requires intensive or intermediate care, surgery, or evaluation by other pediatric specialists. |

| | The nonspecific and specific immune systems are immature and compromised in the preterm or sick neonate. | | | Testing the mother for GBS is one of the ways they are trying to decrease costs, because they are trying to preventing any insult to the neonate by prophylactically treating the mother during labor (Parks et al, 2000). | | | Patient Education: Full course of therapy should be completed even if neonate appears to be feeling better. |

| | The Neonate and Colostrum |
| | The neonate is constantly and rapidly changing, both structurally and physiologically. | | | Intestinal transport of macromolecules is extensive but not selective in some species (such as the bovine, porcine and canine neonate), while in others (human infants, guinea pigs, rabbits) there is little intestinal absorption of macromolecules at all. | | | Time of closure is the time after birth when macromolecules (including immunoglobulins) can no longer pass from the intestinal lumen, through the intestinal cell and into the neonate's vascular system. |

| | Based on our experience with this population, we conclude that the behavior of this group during the entire encounter was unusual. | | | Similar to Weilgart and Whitehead's (1986) assessment of comparable behavior during a sperm whale birth, we interpret these types of actions as potentially stressful to the neonate. | | | Over an hour later, at 1830 hrs, the group's behavior had not changed and we discontinued observations approximately 11 km from where the whales were first sighted. |
