Nursing, microbiota, neonateAbstract
Our body is home to millions of microorganisms. Microbiota refers to all microorganisms in the human body. Bacteria from mother's milk and skin are most prominent in the neonatal gut in the first month of life. Microbial colonization begins in utero, but neonatal gut microbiota is formed after birth. Mother's vaginal and intestinal microbiota, mode of delivery, antibiotic use, dietary habits, gestational age, antibacterial agent use, and cultural differences affect gut microbiota development from the neonatal period to early infancy. Of those factors, mode of delivery and dietary habits affect neonatal microbiota the most. Given the growing evidence on how the neonatal microbiota affects health, it is crucial for pediatric nurses to have a basic knowledge of the microbiota. Evidence from studies shows how more effective interventions to promote health and treat disease can benefit. Pediatric nurses should contribute to research and integrate current evidence into care. This article addressed the development of healthy neonatal microbiota and the role of pediatric nurses in the process.
