abstractions about the
lesson AN ACT PROMULGATING A COMPREHENSIVE POLICY AND A NATIONAL SYSTEM
FOR ENSURING NEWBORN SCREENING.
Newborn means a child from the time of complete delivery to 30 days old.
Newborn screening
Newborn Screening (NBS) is a simple procedure to find out if the baby has a
congenital metabolic disorder that may lead to mental retardation or even death if left
untreated.
Importance of newborn screening
Most babies with metabolic disorders look "normal" at birth. By doing NBS, metabolic
disorders may be detected even before clinical signs and symptoms are present. And as a
result of this, treatment can be given early to prevent consequences of untreated conditions.
Positive NBS results are relayed to the parents immediately by the health facility.
Please ensure that the address and phone number provided to the health facility are
correct.
A NEGATIVE SCREEN MEANS THAT THE NBS RESULT IS NORMAL.
A positive screen means that the newborn must be brought back to his/her health
practitioner for further testing.
How does this law protect the newborn infant?
Newborn
A new baby at home is exciting, but it can be scary, too. Newborns have many needs, like
frequent feedings and diaper changes. Babies can have health issues that are different from
older children and adults.
The behavioural development of a healthy baby:
month suckles and smiles
2-3 months vocalizes and controls head
4-5 months controls hand and rolls over
6-7 months sits briefly and crawls
8-9 months grasps and pulls up
10 – 11 months walks with support and stands alone
Essential Newborn Care Protocol aimed to significantly reduce infant deaths in the
country.
Protocol can pave the way to the reduction of neonatal deaths. Essential Newborn Care is a
comprehensive strategy to improve the health of the newborn through interventions before
conception, during pregnancy, soon after birth and in the post natal period. This protocol will
focus on the first few hours of life of the newborn with the manual guiding the health workers
and medical practitioners in providing evidence-based essential newborn care.
The guidelines are categorized into the time bound and non-time bound plus unnecessary
procedures.

Time bound procedures should be routinely performed first which are:

1. immediate drying
2. skin to skin contact
3. clamping of the cord after 1-3 minutes
4. non-separation of the newborn from the mother
5. breastfeeding initiation.

Non-time bound interventions include:

1. immunizations
2. eye care
3. Vitamin K administration
4. Weighing
5. Washing water or formula.
6. Routine suctioning
7. Routine separation of newborn for observation
8. Administration of pre lacteals like
 Daily Dietary Allowances for infants
Breastmilk for a newborn, 0-6 months, is sufficient to meet the nutritional needs.
Summary
Changes in the mother’s body during pregnancy is evident due to the developing fetus.
Pregnant woman should watch for her health, she should submit herself to regular check-ups
and healthy lifestyle to give the baby sufficient nutrition.

problems may arise. Delivering in a hospital with qualified doctor is the safest way.
Breastfeeding is essential in a proper childcare. Mother’s milk is economical and nutritious
and it promotes emotional bonding between the mother and the child.
