For premature babies at 35 weeks, care is a particularly important link. So for parents who want to ensure that their premature babies can stay away from health, they must have a detailed understanding of disease prevention and observation, so as to ensure the health of their children. So what are the care, disease prevention and observation for premature babies at 35 weeks? Let's take a look at the following introduction.

The immune system of premature babies is not fully developed when they are born, so they are easily susceptible to other diseases. Therefore, disease prevention and observation are very important, which is the prerequisite for ensuring the health of premature babies. There are several points to be aware of when preventing and observing diseases:

1. After a premature baby is born, the mucus in the mouth and nasal cavity, as well as secretions such as amniotic fluid, should be sucked out first to keep the respiratory tract open and buy time and conditions for subsequent treatments.

2. Manage the respiratory system of premature babies well. Premature babies have immature respiratory functions and underdeveloped respiratory muscles, and sometimes they may experience breathing difficulties, cyanosis or sleep apnea, so they should be given oxygen inhalation in a timely manner, with a concentration of about 30% to 40%. However, care should be taken not to give oxygen for a long time or at high concentrations, so as to avoid hyperplasia of the lens fibrous tissue and cause vision damage.

3. Prevention is better than cure, and children’s infections must be prevented. Usually, we should strengthen the care of the baby's navel, skin folds and buttocks. At the same time, the isolation and disinfection system should be strictly implemented. Nursing staff should disinfect, wash their hands and wear masks before providing care to avoid medical-induced infection.

4. Disinfect the room by regularly irradiating it with ultraviolet light for 1 to 2 hours. Wipe the incubator with disinfectant every day. Replace and disinfect the supplies in the incubator once a week. Keep the indoor air fresh and ventilate twice a day for 10 to 15 minutes each time.
