Neonatal nurses from critical care areas collaborate to manage infants with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). Understanding extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) benefits and limitations is crucial for optimal care.

Area of Science:

  • Neonatal care
  • Pediatric surgery
  • Critical care medicine

Background:

  • Infants with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) require complex care from multidisciplinary teams.
  • Care involves neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) unit, and operating room (OR) personnel.
  • Nursing care significantly impacts patient outcomes during preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative phases.

Observation:

  • The nursing team prioritizes the infant's physiological status and the family's psychosocial well-being.
  • Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) remains controversial due to unknown long-term effects on survivors.
  • ECMO provides an alternative for CDH infants when conventional treatments are insufficient.

Findings:

  • A coordinated nursing team is essential for managing CDH infants.

  • Understanding ECMO's benefits and limitations is vital for the care team.
  • Multidisciplinary collaboration is key to managing this challenging patient population.

    • Implications:

    • Continued evaluation of treatment modalities and techniques is necessary.
    • Enhanced understanding of ECMO is required for optimal CDH infant care.
    • Multidisciplinary teams must adapt and update practices to improve outcomes for neonates with CDH.
