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.

Since parents tend to be anxious, their feeling of fear is communicated to their children. Impact of hospitalization
on pediatric patients depends upon their age and stage of development.
Reaction of infants: Infants under 6 months of age tend to show less anxiety in response to hospitalization
than in later months. Infants may be emotionally disturbed due to separation from their parents. They may
suffer from sensory deprivation if the nursing personnel do not provide loving care that they need. Older

Nurses can play a significant role in helping the child and family members to cope up
with stress of hospitalization.
1.Care of Infants: After the admission of an infant to the hospital and completion of
pediatric history assessment, the nurse’s major responsibility is to:
Encourage participation of parents in meeting the physical and emotional needs of
infant.
The nurse can make parents participate in administration of medications,
procedures, feeding the infants, etc.
In this way, she can minimize the separation anxiety among infants; also the
parents are prepared for post hospitalization care of the infant.
18. 2. Care of toddlers
Nursing care of toddlers during hospitalization focus on:
Preserving the toddler’s trust in parents .
Helping the child express anger, and
Encouraging frequent visits of parents, so that child is not deprived of parental love.
Any regressive behavior of the toddler should be accepted without any punishment to the toddler.
Depending on the child’s condition, he should be encouraged to play and be physically active.
19. 3. In preschool children
Rooming- in can be practiced, so as to allow maximum contact between parents and
preschooler.
These children may be allowed to express their feelings through play, so that trauma
of hospitalization is reduced.
The child should be encouraged to participate in self-care activities, if possible.
20. 4. In school children
School-aged children view hospitalization as punishment. Immobilization is the most difficult aspect
of hospitalization for them.
Children must be encouraged to watch TV, read books, etc., so that they do not feel bored.
Hospitalization makes them feel like they are losing self-control and independence.
Children in this age group have developed a sense of modesty, so it should be considered while
giving any sort of physical care to them.
Children must be provided privacy during care.
They must be encouraged to take active part in their treatment and self-care.
Children should be allowed to express their fears, anxiety, and doubts.
The nurse should help the children to talk about their feelings and therapeutic communication
should be encouraged.
21. 5. In adolescents
The role of nurse when caring for adolescents includes understanding the
emotional impact of illness on them, helping them to participate in their
treatment program, and providing the care that they need.
Adolescents when admitted in hospital enter a where they are unaware of what
will happen to them which leads to fear and anxiety. So, nurse should routinely
communicate with them and provide the needed information.
Reassurance and encouragement toward self-care will help adolescents gain
their self- esteem and independence.
