Proceso de atención de enfermería en recién nacido a término con Íleo Meconial.

Meconium ileus is a pathology caused by intestinal obstruction in the terminal ileum, which causes it to be accumulated by thick meconium. This pathology occurs in two forms, simple and complex. It is very important to know that meconium ileus occurs more frequently in premature newborns, causing in them multiple clinical manifestations which could be abdominal distention, vomiting, delayed evacuations and palpable meconium. The present clinical case is about a 3-day-old newborn who presents significant abdominal distention without the presence of 65-hour bowel movements, which after multiple examinations is diagnosed with meconium ileus, therefore, it develops in order to present the nursing interventions that can be performed on the neonate during their hospital stay. It should be emphasized that in order to perform these interventions, the patient must be assessed in a cephalo-caudal manner and the assessment by Marjorie Gordon's functional patterns, which through the verification of altered patterns can identify problems and provide nursing care priotaries in the neonate with meconium ileus. One of the priority interventions that should be performed on the neonate with thick meconium is the acetyl cysteine enema at least twice a day, since this type of meconium is not easily eliminated. It is very important to know that for the management of the newborn with meconium ileus, biosafety measures must be strictly used since it is a very complex pathology.
