| Abstract | The article presents nursing care of a new-borninfant with congenital heart disease based on the model of Virginia Henderson and the theory of needs of Abraham G. Maslow. Only those life activities which belong to the very top of the hierarchy of needs of a new-born infant with congenital heart disease, are presented. Congenital heart disease often causes breathing difficulties manifested with dispnea. An early symptom of heart failure is liquid retention which represents a decline in health status. Skin of a new born infant is thin and fragile, body temperature is low and feeding problems frequent. Because of pain, sleep and rest are often disturbed. The nurse has to develop her observation abilities to notice symptoms of heart failure in time and to take proper and timely measures. For the work with parents, knowledge from counseling techniques and health education are required. | |
| Summary | Članek predstavlja zdravstveno nego novorojenca s prirojeno srčno napako s pomočjo modela Virginie Henderson in teorije potreb Abrahama G. Maslowa. Predstavljene so le tiste življenjske aktivnosti po modelu Virginie Henderson, ki sodijo v sam vrh hierarhije potreb novorojenca s prirojeno srčno napako. Prirojena srčna napaka pogosto povzroča motnje dihanja pri novorojencu, ki se odražajo z dispnejo. Zgodnji simptom popuščanja srca je zastajanje tekočin v organizmu, kar predstavlja poslabšanje zdravstvenega stanja. Novorojenec ima nizko telesno temperaturo ter tanko in ranljivo kožo. Ima motnje prehranjevanja. Zaradi bolečine se pogosto pojavijo motnje spanja in počitka. Medicinska sestra mora razviti sposobnost opazovanja, da prepoznava simptome popuščanja srca ter pravočasno in pravilno ukrepa. Za delo s starši novorojenca pa potrebuje znanja s področja tehnik svetovanja in zdravstvene vzgoje. | |
