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!

Please explain the significance of pupil exami ation eg fixed and dilated pupils following instrumental deliveries where you suspect skull fracture.thanks
@TalaTalksNICU3 жыл бұрын
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!

@TalaTalksNICU3 жыл бұрын
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.
@frauzapataful2 жыл бұрын
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

Fantastic video! how about assessment on sensory? How shall I assess?
@TalaTalksNICU3 жыл бұрын
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?
