RESUMEN
Objective To compare the effects of no-rinse skin cleanser and warm water with paraffin oil in first brush bath of the new-born. Methods About 42 newborns who were born from January to March 2016 were set as control group and used warm water with paraffin oil in first brush bath. About 43 newborns who were born from April to June 2016 were set as observation group and used no-rinse skin cleanser in first brush bath. The cleaning time and effect ,the rectal temperature before and after sponge and dermatitis were compared. Results Both groups did not develop dermatitis. But the observation group had better cleaning satisfaction , less cleaning time, faster rewarming than those of the control group with statistical significance (all p<0.05). Conclusion No-rinse skin cleanser used in the first brush for the new-born can reduce cleaning time and difference of temperature, which is safe for clinical application.
