Abstract

Purpose: To assess the efficacy of petrolatum jelly for the prevention of diaper rash and to evaluate the relationship between the occurrence of diaper rash and certain treatments and type of nutrition.

Design and methods: A randomized clinical trial was carried out with two parallel groups (n = 213) at the neonatal care unit of Donostia University Hospital in San Sebastián, Guipuzcoa Province, Spain.

Results: There was a lower incidence of diaper rash in the experimental group with petrolatum jelly (17.1%) than the control group (22.2%), but the difference was not statistically significant (p =.39). The use of antibiotics and oral 50% glucose as well as an increased number of stools are associated with a higher incidence of diaper rash, while breastfeeding and phototherapy are protective factors.

Practice implications: Prevention is strengthened by a better understanding of the risk factors.

凡士林预防尿布疹的随机临床试验。

目的:评价凡士林预防尿布疹的疗效，探讨尿布疹的发生与某些治疗方法和营养类型的关系。设计与方法:在西班牙Guipuzcoa省San Sebastián的Donostia大学医院新生儿监护室进行了一项随机临床试验，两组平行(n = 213)。结果:凡士林研究组尿布疹发生率(17.1%)低于对照组(22.2%)，但差异无统计学意义(p = 0.39)。使用抗生素和口服50%葡萄糖以及增加大便数量与尿布疹发生率较高有关，而母乳喂养和光疗是保护因素。实践意义:通过更好地了解风险因素，预防得到加强。
