    Area of Science:

    • Neonatal Medicine
    • Pediatric Gastroenterology

    Background:

    • Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is a critical gastrointestinal disease.
    • It primarily affects premature infants, particularly those with low birth weight.

    Observation:

    • NEC involves intestinal ischemia and necrosis, often leading to perforation.
    • It is a significant contributor to mortality and morbidity in vulnerable newborns.

    Findings:

    • This review covers NEC pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment strategies.
    • A case study and nursing care plan are presented for comprehensive management.

    Implications:

    • Optimizing nursing and medical care can substantially decrease NEC incidence and severity.
    • Effective management strategies are vital for improving outcomes and reducing infant mortality.
