Introduction: Systematic, accurate, ongoing physical assessment is a critical component of managing neonates across all settings. The purposes of neonatal assessment include identifying influences of the prenatal environment, evaluating a transition to extrauterine life, recognizing early the subtle indicators or changes that may be harbingers of serious problems, and evaluating a plethora of clinical findings to distinguish between normal variations and problems. Assessment is an integral part of care planning and parent teaching.
Workshop description: This workshop will help you to understand the unique physical, physiologic, neurologic, and behavioral findings in the neonate and to recognize alterations and prevent or minimize effects for the little ones.
