Hello,
In my SCN we had a newborn transported in by air from another community on
the Navajo reservation. Mother had a history of being treated for MRSA in
7/06, while pregnant. Infant at one day old was showing signs of respiratory
distress and infection (labs are pending). The NNP and neonatologist have
decided that this infant must be fed formula until mother's labs come back
normal - the reason being that MRSA can be transmitted to the infant via
breastmilk.
I am thinking that this infant has already been exposed, and that this is
completely unnecessary. Please any other feedback on how to talk to these
HCPs would be greatly appreciated.
Brenda Phipps, BS, IBCLC
