The neonates are unique in several ways in comparison with older children and adults which render them highly susceptible to severe, sometimes life threatening dermatological disorders. The neonatal dermatological emergencies are a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. A wide range of dermatoses such as infections, genodermatoses, metabolic disorders and vascular tumors may require emergency care. The clinical presentation also varies from generalized involvement of skin to localized disease with or without systemic symptoms. Irrespective of the etiology and clinical presentation, these disorders are associated with significant morbidity and mortality. With the availability of effective drugs and monitoring facilities, and awareness of need for immediate care, there has been a significant decline in the fatality rate associated with neonatal dermatological emergencies. Knowledge of clinical presentations, rapid diagnostic methods, emergency care and monitoring of progress of the disease helps in comprehensive multidisciplinary care of neonates with these disorders.
与年长儿童和成人相比,新生儿在几个方面具有独特性,这使他们极易受到严重的、有时甚至危及生命的皮肤病的影响。新生儿皮肤科急症是一个诊断和治疗方面的挑战。广泛的皮肤病,如感染、遗传性皮肤病、代谢紊乱和血管肿瘤,可能需要紧急护理。临床表现也从全身性皮肤受累到局部疾病,伴有或不伴有全身症状。无论病因和临床表现如何,这些疾病都与较高的发病率和死亡率相关。随着有效药物和监测设施的出现,以及对立即护理需求的认识,与新生儿皮肤科急症相关的死亡率已经显著下降。了解临床表现、快速诊断方法、紧急护理和监测疾病进展有助于对患有这些疾病的新生儿进行全面的多学科护理。
