Feeding plate for a newborn with Cleft Palate.pptxSatvikaPrasad
A feeding plate is a prosthetic device used for newborns with a cleft palate to assist in feeding and improve nutrition intake. From a prosthodontic perspective, this plate acts as a barrier between the oral and nasal cavities, facilitating effective sucking and swallowing by providing a more normal anatomical structure. It helps to prevent milk from entering the nasal passage, thereby reducing the risk of aspiration and enhancing the infant's ability to feed efficiently. The feeding plate also aids in the development of the oral muscles and can contribute to better growth and weight gain. Its custom fabrication and proper fitting by a prosthodontist are crucial for ensuring comfort and functionality, as well as for minimizing potential complications. Early intervention with a feeding plate can significantly improve the quality of life for both the infant and the parents.

help to:

Identify alternate, more helpful, ways to deal with the
threat

5. Lack of Pleasure
Form/Symptom
Lack of pleasure in most things, most days for a period of at
least 2 weeks.
Cause
Neurochemical imbalance (insufficient dopamine,
norepinephrine?) caused by:
Lack of quality sleep
Excessive stress
Drug or medication use
Hormone imbalances including thyroid problems
Copyright 2018 AllCEUs All Rights Reserved. Unlimited CEUs for $59/month or $99/year 5
6. Lack of Pleasure
Causes
HPA-Axis
Cortisol
Increased norepinepherine and glutamate
Reductions in
Estrogen
Testosterone
Serotonin
Increased anxiety and depression
Melatonin
Impaired sleep
Copyright 2018 AllCEUs All Rights Reserved. Unlimited CEUs for $59/month or $99/year 6
7. Lack of Pleasure
Function
This is your body's way of
Signaling that there may be a problem
Conserving excitatory neurotransmitters for a “real” crisis
Forcing you to address it. After all, nobody wants to be
depressed for very long.
Copyright 2018 AllCEUs All Rights Reserved. Unlimited CEUs for $59/month or $99/year 7
8. Lack of Pleasure
How You Cope
Think back over a few times when you have been depressed
or just haven’t found pleasure in anything, even if it was
just for a few hours.
What did you do to help yourself feel better?
What makes the depression/lack of pleasure worse?
What can you do to prevent triggering your depression/lack of
pleasure?
Copyright 2018 AllCEUs All Rights Reserved. Unlimited CEUs for $59/month or $99/year 8
9. Lack of Pleasure
Simple-ish Interventions
Don’t expect exhilaration, but try to do some things that make you
mildly happy. (Alphabet, happiness box, weekly appointment)
Get plenty of quality sleep. You need to stabilize your circadian
(sleep-wake-eat) rhythms.
Think back to when you didn’t feel this way.
What was different? (MEEPS sheets)
What changed that started you feeling depressed (Review the
MEEPS)
Remember that depression is a natural part of the grief process
and also very normal after a trauma. Be compassionate

10. Eating Behaviors
Form
Eating too much or loss of appetite
Cause
Imbalance in the brain chemicals that help you feel motivated to
eat, such a norepinepherine and serotonin.
There are five primary causes of over-eating:
Your body needing the building blocks (Food diary)
Low serotonin
Your circadian rhythms are out of whack (HR/energy monitoring)
Habit/self soothing (Food diary)
Thyroid Issues (Physical)

11. Eating Behaviors
How You Cope
In the past when you have just not had an appetite or have been
eating to self-soothe, how did you deal with it?
How can you make sure you are eating a generally healthy diet,
and making sure that your body has the building blocks it needs?
What can you do to ensure you are eating due to hunger and not
distress?
What foods do you generally eat to self-soothe?
What can you do to prevent non-hunger eating?
What can you do besides eating to distract yourself from your
distress or self-soothe?

12. Eating Behaviors
Some simple-ish interventions
Stop consuming caffeine at least 8 hours before bed.
Drink enough water (even if it is sparkling water or Powerade).
Have 3 colors on your plate at every meal.(Yellow, Red,
Blue/purple/black, green, orange, white/brown;
breakfast/dinner)
Eat foods you enjoy, but in moderation
Use a plate. Don’t eat out of the bag
Get enough sleep so you are not eating to stay awake.
Experiment with essential oils. Some will increase appetite.
Some will decrease stress and cravings.(Test sniff, handout
presentations)
If you just cannot stomach eating, explore a meal replacement
like Ensure. This should not be done for a long period, but as a
stop-gap, it usually is fine. Ask your doctor.

13. Sleeping Behaviors
Form
Sleeping too much or having insomnia
Cause

Copyright 2018 AllCEUs All Rights Reserved. Unlimited CEUs for $59/month or $99/year 13
14. Sleeping Behaviors
Cause
Insomnia can indicate:

Pain making it difficult to sleep
Insufficient serotonin/melatonin (also implicated in depression
and “stress”)
Copyright 2018 AllCEUs All Rights Reserved. Unlimited CEUs for $59/month or $99/year 14
15. Sleeping Behaviors
Function
When you are not getting enough sleep, you cannot recharge
as efficiently, so you are more tired.
When you are getting too much sleep your body doesn’t
secrete melatonin at the right times leading to poor quality
sleep and feeling exhausted all the time.
When you cannot sleep it typically indicates that your HPA-
Axis/Threat Responses System is activated so it doesn’t want
you to be vulnerable.
