      Congratulations Vanessa on your new job- so exciting! We're so happy you're 'studying' in advance and that these are helpful! Also happy that you used y'all- are you a fellow Texan?! (Obviously I wasn't originally but now my husband says I'm more Texan all the way)- Tala.

      Thank you so much, Dr. Tala, I really appreciate it!! I love learning and your videos are so helpful since we only get so little neonatology in nursing school. And, funny enough, I was born in Texas-but didn’t grow up there so I wouldn’t say I’m a fellow Texan exactly 😅 So my use of “y’all” was to be gender inclusive😁 Looking forward to continuing my learning through the rest of your videos & Questions! Take care, Team!

      Hello Amanda- we could definitely do a video on strokes in newborn period since they're much more common than people would expect. We do occasionally see subdural hematomas (mostly incidentally on U/S/ CT scans etc), but I've never had a patient that needed surgery for one. A video on general bleeds in head which aren't IVH would be a great topic though!! Thanks so much for the suggestion :)

    Please explain the significance of pupil exami ation eg fixed and dilated pupils following instrumental deliveries where you suspect skull fracture.thanks

    • @TalaTalksNICU
      @TalaTalksNICU  4 роки тому +3

      This is a tough one! Generally a fixed dilated pupil can be indicative of severe neurological injury- and in a patient with HIE , this is an ominous sign. Since the sympathetic system is responsible for dilating the pupils- this can also happen from too much sympathetic activity (e.g. dopamine, cocaine exposure). Also it could result from a blockage of the parasympathetic system- e.g. in infantile botulism. The most common reason for a fixed dilated pupil in a neonate is that the infant received their eye-drops for an ROP exam!! I can do a separate lecture on pupils if you are interested!

    • @marinajohn4022

      Thanks for the response! Based on your experience, how do you go about their feeding? Is it okay if we start feeding the premmies at 30-40cc/kg/day of expressed breast milk? Or we go lower? Thanks much! 🙂

    Correction: For Erbs Palsy, the presentation is shoulder and elbow extension, INTERNAL rotation (and pronation) with wrist flexion.

    • @TalaTalksNICU
      @TalaTalksNICU  3 роки тому +1

      Yes! Thanks Monica- arm is internally rotated (and difficult to externally rotate!). If I said something different, it was a mistake! Thanks for pointing it out :)

    Fantastic video! how about assessment on sensory? How shall I assess?

    • @TalaTalksNICU
      @TalaTalksNICU  3 роки тому +1

      Hello Wein. Great question, and I probably should have alluded to this in talk. Many of the reflexes (e.g. root and grasp reflexes) rely on sensation to function- so in a sense you are testing sensation. Many times babies respond to touch- moving toward your fingers or trying to grasp something if near the face. If sensation is decreased then you need to press a little harder (not too hard!) to evaluate whether the infant withdraws. Ultimately though, because infants are non-verbal, it would be very difficult to obtain an exact dermatomal assessment of sensation. We would have to rely on other methods for that (e.g. with spinal cord defect- check DTR). I hope this helps?

    What does it mean when a neonate has trouble opening mandible? Able to suck and swallow but delayed mouth opening.

    • @TalaTalksNICU
      @TalaTalksNICU  2 роки тому +1

      Hello Victoria- I'm not sure what this means! Does he have a small mandible? i.e. a small, short chin? Is it stiff? Is he still little? Obviously without knowing a lot more - we can't really guess! Good luck!

    Very nice. ❤. Always waiting for your videos.
    But one question about checking the reflexes that involve eyes.. Usually the eyes of a newborn are closed.. How can we examine them easily

    • @TalaTalksNICU
      @TalaTalksNICU  4 роки тому +4

      Thanks for commenting! This is a great point- I've found that the easiest way to get a baby to open their eyes is to turn the lights off, and then to sit them up a bit (even if just the shoulders and head)- often that will be interesting enough for them to lift their lids. If the babies can't or shouldn't be lifted, then sometimes letting them suck your gloved finger works. Often though, we sometimes have to physically pull the eye-lids apart with some gauze to get a good look at the pupils and red reflexes.

    • @frauzapataful

      I personally always try "The Hold" (look it up here on youtube) where the baby is held in a way that it looks downwards, sometimes that works.
      The ophtalmologist that visits us to do the ROP screenings has a very scary metal instrument to keep the lids open, it gives me nightmares

      Thank you! I know- you’re right! I go on too long. It’s hard cutting everything down to bite sized pieces but I need to try harder! We’re planning on a whole month of v short videos for nurses. Really do appreciate you being here and your constructive feedback- very very helpful to us :)

    Moro reflexes, suckling, rooting and gag reflex, grasps reflexes, why this are called "primitive" reflex

    • @TalaTalksNICU
      @TalaTalksNICU  2 роки тому +2

      Because they’re reflexes that keep babies alive at start of life but then they all go away within a few months (would be a problem if an adult had a rooting or grasp reflex)
