Abstract
Objective: To present the actual state of nasal lesion and several related factors of neonates on CPAP therapy, simultaneously evaluates the effectiveness of an interventional package for preventing nasal lesion at Neonatal Department of Vinmec Times City General International Hospital in 2019. Subject and method: Using a cross-sectional study design described by quantitative methods on 75 neonates from January 2018 to November 2019. Result and conclusion: The risk of nasal injury was higher in premature birth with prolonged CPAP application than those of full-term newborn with short-term CPAP application. Additionally, the application as well as the compliance to the care package, which include preventive intervention for nasal lesion such as: Use of artificial leather patches and lubricating oil (paraffin), monitoring every 1 hour by nurse, practice of nasal massage every 6 hours, have all contributed to prevent nasal lesion on newborn with CPAP breathing (p<0.05). In time to come, all medical staffs were needed to be trained to have decent knowledge regarding CPAP therapy and know the practice of preventive care package for nasal injury on newborn with CPAP breathing.
