Case report of a premature newborn with COVID-19
Abstract
In December 2019, coronavirus disease (COVID-19) caused by the new coronavirus severe acute respiratory syndrome-2 (SARS-CoV-2) emerged in China and has now spread to many countries. Pregnant women are a susceptible population for SARS-CoV-19 and are more likely to have complications and even progress to severe disease. The objective: of this study is to present the management of the nursing staff of a neonatal patient (preterm 34 SDG) with COVID19. Methodology, this is a descriptive study, in which we report a case of neonatal COVID-19 (neonate 34 SDG) in the regional third-level hospital of the State of Mexico. Results: A case of a 34 SDG neonate positive for SARS Cov-2 is presented, describing nursing care and interventions for favorable evolution. Discussion-. Clinical manifestations, especially in preterm patients, are unspecific; therefore, it is necessary to carry out a series of interventions such as monitoring of vital signs. Therefore, the patient who is a child of a symptomatic covid-19 positive mother requires follow-up and surveillance in the NICU. Conclusions: It is imperative to know about the appropriate approach to the neonatal patient with SARS CoV-2 in order to set a precedent for the effectiveness of the interventions of the nursing professional.
