The skin is one of the most important organs at birth, and skin care provided during the newborn period may have short and long-term effects which can extend into infancy and beyond. During the first days and months of life, proper neonatal skin care is essential for newborns.

 

Learn the most current research and practice recommendations to improve and maintain neonatal skin integrity for both healthy and high-risk neonates. This free, live webinar will also focus on the prevention and treatment of diaper dermatitis, the treatment of neonatal skin breakdown for healthy and high-risk newborns, as well as the use of emollients for prevention of atopic dermatitis.

 

Speaker Debra Brandon, PhD, RN, CNS, FAAN, is an associate professor at Duke University.
