Aspirator for newborns

For pumping out of slime and amniotic waters in the delivery room the vacuum suction with an aspiration catheter – a soft silicon drainage tube with the rounded edge is used. It is also the real aspirator for newborns which use is necessary in labor, irrespective of duration of gestation and a condition of a fruit. Suction of slime is made by the midwife or the doctor in the second period of childbirth when the newborn's head appears. Instead of forcing patrimonial activity, pumping out of liquid contents from lungs, an oral and nasal cavity is made while the thorax of the child is in patrimonial ways in a condition of the maximum compression. The tip of a transparent tubule is serially entered into a mouth and both nostrils, the device under pressure of no more than 100 mm Hg releases respiratory tracts of the baby. And each vacuum suction which is used in the delivery room has the operating mode limiter: it is simply impossible to give pressure above threshold value.

When using an aspirator for newborns in the delivery room surely pump out liquid from an oral cavity, and from a nose only when heartbeat of a fruit does not suffer. If it in a slowed-up way to 120 beats/min and less, pumping out from nasal respiratory tracts is not made. Therefore it is impossible to call such device exclusively nasal.

In the period of a neonatality the child has no cold as secretory cells of a mucous nasal cavity are not developed yet. Besides, till second year of life, and sometimes and slightly longer, the palatine velum of the child is shortened therefore the baby can suck a breast and breathe a nose at the same time. At cold process of food of the child is at a loss. The kid is forced to interrupt the act of suction or to refuse for a while a breast because cannot blow the nose.

Devices similar to vacuum suction of the delivery room with similar functions began to call nasal aspirators for newborns, meaning pumping out of mucous allocations at rhinitises of children of younger age.

Nasal aspirator for newborns

The most insignificant overcooling at the child, not very well what age, causes an inflammation of a mucous membrane of a nose. So from the fact that the kid was run barefoot on a cold floor cold develops. If not to use an aspirator for newborns to pump out nose contents, there is the following clinical picture. As the child up to three years cannot blow the nose, allocations from a nose flow down on an upper lip. But it is visible surrounding a part of a problem. The most dangerous succession of events happens in an organism. Mucous, and occasionally and purulent, allocations in much bigger quantity flow down in a nasopharynx cavity, getting into bronchial tubes.

There is cough. Besides, the irritation of an epiglottis causes a deglutitory reflex, so from a nasal cavity the inflammatory exudate containing causative organisms will get into digestive tract.

Thus, use of an aspirator for newborns serves as prophylactic against bronchitis and pathology of digestive tract.

The best aspirator for newborns

Suctions from a nose underwent a peculiar evolution at which each step new, a little advanced forms of devices appeared. Now each of them is used still rather effectively. All devices known today keep within the following classification:

• Syringes – pears No. 1, are used in some regional delivery rooms to this day;
• Mechanical suctions – at the expense of force of a breath of parents;
• Vacuum rocking chairs – imitation of aspirators in delivery rooms, are connected to household vacuum cleaners;
• Electronic compressors – the most modern, filled with electronic devices.

The principles of action of aspirators are identical to newborns: at the expense of pressure difference from a nose of the child all liquid allocations are extorted. A difference only in approach to use of this or that adaptation.

Suction by means of a pear is made as follows: the pear contracts, the tip is inserted into a children's nostril, the second is clamped by a finger, then the syringe is unclenched, pumping out contents of a nasal bosom.

The mechanical tubule as aspirator for newborns is used differently. The tip is entered into the child's nostril, other end of a tube – in the adult's mouth. In the middle of a tube there is a transparent container in which there are contents of a nasopharynx of the kid. The parent independently regulates suction force under sight control as sees how liquid contents move on a tubule to a tank.

The vacuum aspirator for newborns represents the device with pressure limiter, also as well as in the delivery room, to 100 mm Hg and below. It is enough to insert a tip into a nose of the child and to turn on the vacuum cleaner.

Electronic aspirators for newborns have several additional functions that allows not only to clear a mucous membrane of a nose, but also to moisten it after washing of a nasal cavity. Devices are equipped with music that turns process of clarification of a nose into the entertaining procedure.

Aspirator for newborns, responses

Certainly, the best aspirator for newborns is that which it is easy and without complications helps to cope with a task. Efficiency of the device depends on how to operate it.

The vacuum suction, for example, demands additional movements, turning on of the vacuum cleaner which sound can frighten the small child. Besides, in the delivery room manipulation takes 1-3 seconds whereas houses duration of suction can increase ten times.

The electronic aspirator for newborns receives comments positive at those people who use it not so often. When "expensive toy" fails, again it is necessary to use "antiquated methods".
