The Early Essential Newborn Care (EENC) intervention package recommended by World Health Organization (WHO) is shown to prevent and treat the leading causes of newborn illness and death. China has begun widespread implementation of the EENC. Among the 14 core interventions, including using antibiotics for mothers with premature rupture of membranes, immediate skin-to-skin contact of mother and baby, delayed umbilical cord clamping, kangaroo mother care for preterm newborn, and neonatal sepsis and pneumonia management, were not sufficiently implemented in health facilities in western China. There are gaps between the implementation situation and WHO recommendations in terms of EENC capacities in western China. Targeted interventions developed accordingly can ensure quality child health care and decrease newborn mortality in China.
世界卫生组织(WHO)推荐的早期基本新生儿护理(EENC)干预措施组合已被证明可预防和治疗新生儿疾病和死亡的主要原因。中国已开始广泛实施EENC。在14项核心干预措施中,包括对胎膜早破的母亲使用抗生素、母婴立即皮肤接触、延迟脐带结扎、对早产新生儿进行袋鼠式护理以及新生儿败血症和肺炎管理等,在中国西部的医疗机构中实施得并不充分。在中国西部,EENC能力方面的实施情况与WHO的建议之间存在差距。相应制定的针对性干预措施可确保中国儿童保健的质量并降低新生儿死亡率。
