The most scientific way to prevent pneumonia in children

Neonatal pneumonia is particularly common in life. It is a disease that occurs in newborns. The disease is particularly harmful to the weak body of the newborn, so we should try our best to avoid the occurrence of the disease. So what is the most scientific way to prevent childhood pneumonia? Let's find out together.

Among neonatal pneumonia, the most common one is neonatal aspiration pneumonia. If your baby has lung inflammation due to inhalation of foreign matter (such as amniotic fluid, meconium, breast milk, etc.) through the respiratory tract in the womb, during delivery, or after birth, then he will be diagnosed with neonatal aspiration pneumonia. Some neonatal pneumonia is directly caused by infection with pathogens. Neonatal aspiration pneumonia and neonatal infectious pneumonia may exist independently, or they may be caused by secondary bacterial infection after aspiration.

It is very necessary for mothers to have regular prenatal checkups during pregnancy, especially in the late pregnancy, so that they can detect fetal hypoxia in time. Obstetricians will take appropriate monitoring and treatment measures to minimize the occurrence of aspiration pneumonia and reduce the severity of the disease. Pregnant mothers should take good care of themselves during pregnancy, keep their living environment clean and hygienic, and pay attention to personal hygiene to prevent the occurrence of infectious diseases.

After the child is born, a clean and comfortable living space should be arranged for the child. The clothes and diapers used by the child should be soft and clean, and the feeding utensils should be sterilized. Parents and other relatives who come into contact with the child should wash their hands when caring for the newborn. It should be emphasized that adults with colds should avoid contact with newborns as much as possible. If the mother has a cold and must take care of the child and feed the baby, she should wear a mask. Guests who come to visit the newborn should be politely declined. If the child is found to have omphalitis or skin infection, go to the hospital immediately for treatment to prevent the spread of germs.

This is all I have to say about the prevention methods for neonatal pneumonia. In life, we must do all the cleaning and prevention work to create a good living space for newborns, and the baby’s clothes should be washed and changed regularly. The most important thing is that fathers should not smoke around their children, so that their children can grow up healthily.
