Several parameters need to be closely observed in neonates, including:
1. Respiratory Rate: Monitoring respiratory patterns can help identify respiratory distress or conditions like Neonatal Respiratory Distress Syndrome. 2. Heart Rate: Abnormal heart rates can indicate cardiovascular issues or stress. 3. Oxygen Saturation: Ensuring adequate oxygenation is critical for preventing hypoxia and other complications. 4. Temperature: Monitoring body temperature helps in identifying infections or hypothermia. 5. Blood Glucose Levels: Preventing hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia is essential for metabolic stability.
