I would like to reflect on the safety issue that occurred during week 5 of the maternity clinical rotation.
The newborn I was caring for had jaundice
, and phototherapy was ordered, reading administer phototherapy for 24 hours and perform another serum bilirubin test in the morning. The primary nurse requested the Joeyjoey bed and lamp to be delivered onto the unit. When the float nurse was about to go into the patient’s room to set the equipment and initiate treatment, I asked if I could participate in the procedure to learn how it is conducted. She requested me tothat I check the ‘s newbornnewborn's temperature, heart rate, and respiration. Then I watched the float nurse set the joey ‘s bedbed's temperature, shield the baby ‘s eyes and lielay him on the bed. The parents were educated about the side effects and phototherapy light, when to call the nurse, how to remove the infant from the bed, and to call the nurse before breastfeeding the infant.
Prior to entering the patient’s room to initiate treatment, I had asked the primary nurse
“what“What are the nursing roles when implementing phototherapy treatments?” sheShe replied, “check the newborns’newborn's” temperature every hour for 3 hours, then before feed”feeding”. Instruct parents to call the nurse when its wasit's time to feed the infant.
