Newborn Issues Requiring Paediatric Support

You never want your baby to be the one that needs assistance at birth, help with breathing or an admission to the special care nursery… but it does happen. In today’s episode I speak with Paediatric doctors-in-training Freya and Anne from You’re Kidding Right Podcast about some of the common issues that arise in term newborns in their first week or so of life. We cover the very first intervention required at birth – resuscitation. And then look into some of the common reasons babies are taken to the nursery including respiratory issues like Transient tachypnoea of the newborn, infection, and pneumothorax, as well as jaundice, low blood sugars and feeding issues.
