Prevention of infectious diarrhoea in newborns

Prevention of Newborn Infected Diarrhoea: ##1 I. The importance of breastfeeding 1.** Increased immunity**: Breast milk contains abundant immune factors, such as antibodies and white cells, which help the newborn to resist pathogens and reduce the risk of infection. 2. ** Nutritional balance**: Breast milk provides all the nutrients needed for newborns, including proteins, fats, sugars, vitamins and minerals, and contributes to their healthy growth. 3. ** Promote indigestion**: breast milk is easily digestive, reduces the stomach burden of newborns and reduces the probability of indigestion symptoms such as diarrhoea. 4. ** Emotional connection**: Breastfeeding also enhances the emotional connection between mother and child and contributes to the emotional development of the newborn child and to the development of social resilience. ###II, diet and safety # ** choose regular milk powder**: If artificial feeding is chosen, it is necessary to ensure that the milk powder used is produced by a regular manufacturer and to avoid the use of expired or contaminated milk powder. At the same time, care is taken to look at the composition table of the milk powder and to avoid selecting products that contain components that are not suitable for the newborn. 2. ** Thorough cleaning equipment**: Before breastfeeding, a full cleaning of the bottle, the mouth, etc., to avoid bacteria. It is recommended that special bottle cleaners and disinfectors be used for cleaning and disinfection. 3. ** Storage and Heating**: Rushed milk powder should be consumed immediately and, if stored, should be refrigerated in the refrigerator and consumed as soon as possible. Heating should be done in such a way as to avoid excessive temperatures and damage to nutrients in milk powder. 4. ** Avoid cross-pollution**: In feeding, avoid mixing adult foods with infants ‘ foods in order to avoid cross-contamination. ##III. Mother ‘ s diet and health 1. ** Balanced diet**: Mothers should maintain a balanced diet during breastfeeding, with more protein, vitamin and mineral-rich foods such as meat, fish, vegetables, fruit, etc. At the same time, the consumption of raw cold, greasy and potentially allergic food should be avoided. 2. **Adequacy**: Mothers should ensure adequate water intake to maintain milk levels and quality. Drinking water is recommended at least eight cups per day (approximately 2 litres). 3. **Approper rest**: Mothers need adequate rest and sleep during breastfeeding to maintain their good physical and mental state. It is recommended that sleep be guaranteed for 7-8 hours per day. 4. **Stress avoidance**: Mothers should try to avoid excessive stress and emotional fluctuations, which affect the distribution and quality of milk. Pressure can be mitigated by appropriate exercise, relaxation techniques, etc. 1. ** Cleaning**: regular cleaning and disinfection of clothing, toys and bedding for newborns to reduce the growth and spread of pathogens. At the same time, there is a need to keep the indoor environment clean and to provide regular ventilation. 2. ** Hand-washing **: hand-washing before exposure to newborns, especially after changing diapers, breastfeeding, etc. Caregivers and family members should develop good hygiene practices and avoid transmitting pathogens to newborns. 3.** Segregation measures**: If a person in the family suffers from infectious diseases such as diarrhoea, quarantine measures should be taken to avoid contact with the newborn child. At the same time, families should be taught not to kiss the hands and face of the newborn child in order to prevent the transmission of the disease. # # # # V, avoid cross-infection 1. ** Reduce going out**: avoid taking newborns to crowded public places, especially during the high diarrhea seasons such as fall. If necessary, the right time and place should be chosen to avoid overcrowding. 2. **Focal protection**: protections such as masks or masks are to be placed on newborns during outings to reduce direct contact with the outside world. At the same time, care should be taken to maintain hand-health and avoid direct contact with the newborn after touching public facilities. 3. ** Timely access to medical care**: if diarrhoeal symptoms or other anomalies are detected in newborns, timely access should be provided for early diagnosis and treatment to prevent further deterioration. At the same time, treatment and care are provided on the advice of a doctor. ##VI. Timely access to medical care and health management 1. ** Periodic medical check-ups**: periodic health check-ups with newborn children to understand their growth and health status. The doctor gives advice and guidance on the actual situation of the newborn. 2. ** Observation of symptoms**: parents closely observe the physical and mental state of the newborn child and, if abnormal situations are detected, refer to a doctor in a timely manner. At the same time, care should be taken to record the temperature, weight, defecation, etc. of newborns so that doctors can better understand their health. 3. **According to medical advice**: In the case of newborns with symptoms such as diarrhoea, treatment and care are subject to the advice of a doctor. Do not use drugs or prescriptions to treat diseases at will, so as not to aggravate them or cause adverse reactions.
