CARE OF INFANT
What is an Infant?
0-1years ( 0-28 days Neonate 0-7 days early
neonate.)
Indicators of Health in infancy?
Infant mortality.
Premature ( LBW)
 Small for gestational age ( SAG)
Health of Mother
-ANC
- Nutrition
-Immunisation
-Environmental sanitation.
-Quality & quantity of Health care.
- sets of Communicable diseases
-Social practices.
Infant Mortality – Ratio of infant death to live birth during
defined period and geographical area as per 1000 live birth.
Number of deaths of children less than 1 year of
age in year
IMR = -----------------------------------------------------------------------
--------- Number of live birth in same year.-
IMR in India.
1991- 80/1000. now 2015 it is 35/1000
Twice in rural area to urban area.
Highest in Uttar Pradesh up to 140.
Lowest in Kerala .30/1000
There is decreasing trend of IMR
20%in infancy 50% in neonatal period & half in early
Neonate further half in 48 hrs .
CAUSES OF IMR
A. During Neonatal period
 Birth injury
 Difficult labor
 Congenital abnormality
 Hemolytic diseases.
 Abnormal Placenta / Cord.
 ARI, Diarrhea, Asphyxia, Hypothermia & Infection .
B. Causes Post natal Period.
 ARI, Diarrhea
 Environmental factors
 Malnutrition, Infections
C. Biological causes
LBW ( Low Birth Weight)
SAG ( Small for Age of Gestation )
Birth order
Spacing multiple pregnancies.
Maternal age ( less than 20 or More than 30
yrs)

LOW BIRTH WEIGHT
Normal 2500- 4000 gm Green
LBW 2000 – 2500 gm Yellow
V. Low > 2000 gm RED
SAG ( Small for gestation )
Term Baby = 37 – 40weeks complete baby. (253-293
days)
Post Term Baby = after 42 weeks ( 294 days)
Preterm = less than 37 weeks
At present 39% babies are LBW Aim is 105 by 2000 now
2020.
Causes of LBW
 Nutrition to mother
Manual labour in ANC
Tobacco
Weight of mother < 40 Kg.
Mid Arm ,< 27.5 cm

 Malaria
Multi gravid..
CARE OF LBW babies
 Prevention of hypothermia.
