新生儿重症监护病房的早产儿经常暴露在持续的大声噪音中。这种过度的听觉刺激会产生负面的生理反应,比如心跳和呼吸频率加快,血氧饱和度降低。修改新生儿重症监护病房以降低噪音水平,提供更有利于成熟和从疾病中恢复的环境。本文回顾了有关早产儿在应激反应中的病理生理和生理变化的文献,并讨论了在新生儿重症监护病房中降低噪音水平的实践干预措施。这些干预措施包括安装吸声材料和尽量减少工作人员的谈话。
Premature infants in the neonatal intensive-care unit often are exposed to continuous loud noise. This excess auditory stimulation creates negative physiological responses, such as increased heart and respiratory rates and decreased oxygen saturation. Modifying the neonatal intensive-care unit to reduce noise levels provides an environment more conducive to maturation and recovery from illness. This article reviews the literature addressing the pathophysiology and physiological changes of the premature infant in response to stress and discusses practice interventions for decreasing noise levels in the neonatal intensive-care unit. These interventions include installing sound absorbing materials and minimizing conversations of the staff.
