    Area of Science:

    • Neonatal Nursing
    • Pediatric Congenital Disorders
    • Medical Genetics

    Background:

    • Amniotic band syndrome (ABS) presents with variable clinical manifestations, making diagnosis and management challenging.
    • The pathophysiology and etiology of ABS remain incompletely understood, despite extensive study.
    • Existing literature primarily offers medically-focused information, with a scarcity of nursing-specific resources.

    Observation:

    • Neonatal nurses often lack familiarity with amniotic band syndrome.
    • The diverse presentation of ABS necessitates a comprehensive nursing approach.
    • A knowledge gap exists in nursing-oriented information regarding ABS care.

    Findings:

    • This paper synthesizes current knowledge on amniotic band syndrome with a focus on nursing implications.
    • Educated nurses can aid in the diagnosis and management of infants with ABS.
    • Enhanced understanding supports improved care for affected infants and their families.

    Implications:

    • Further nursing research is crucial to address knowledge gaps in ABS care.
    • Developing specialized nursing protocols for ABS can optimize patient outcomes.
    • Interdisciplinary collaboration between medical and nursing professionals is essential for advancing ABS care.
