Steps of blood glucose detection in test tube infants
IVF refers to the babies who are assisted by assisted reproductive technology during in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer. Blood glucose detection is an important step in monitoring the blood glucose level of infants to ensure normal glucose metabolism in their bodies. The following will introduce in detail how to conduct blood glucose test for test tube infants from four aspects: preparation, blood sample collection, test method and result interpretation.
1、 Preparatory work
Before the test tube baby blood glucose test, it is necessary to prepare some necessary tools and materials. This includes:
1. Blood glucose detector: select an accurate and reliable blood glucose detector to ensure its measurement results meet the standard requirements.
2. Blood glucose test paper: select the corresponding blood glucose test paper according to the model of blood glucose instrument to ensure its good quality and suitability for use.
3. Disinfectant solution and disinfection cotton ball: used to clean the blood collection part and ensure the safety of the test.
4. Baby foot patch: It is used to fix the baby's foot and facilitate the collection of blood samples.
5. Anti pain film: It is applied to the bottom of the baby's foot to reduce pain.
After these preparations are completed, the actual operation of IVF blood glucose detection can be carried out next.
2、 Collect blood samples
Blood samples for blood glucose test in test tube infants are usually collected from the soles of infants' feet. The specific operation steps are as follows:
1. Clean the skin: use disinfectant and disinfectant cotton balls to clean the soles of infants' feet to prevent bacterial infection.
2. Mask protection: Apply a pain prevention mask on the sole of the baby's foot to reduce the pain of the baby when collecting blood.
3. Fix the feet: use the baby's foot patch to fix the baby's feet and keep them in a relatively stable position.
4. Blood collection: insert the blood glucose test paper into the blood glucose instrument, then gently press the baby's foot with the fingertip or back of the finger to keep the blood chain in a good flow state, and then gently attach the blood sucking area of the test paper to the blood.
After blood collection, insert the blood glucose test paper into the blood glucose instrument for detection.
3、 Detection method
The blood glucose detector is generally digital display, and relevant settings should be made according to the instrument manual before operation. Common detection methods are as follows:
1. Puncture blood sampling method: It is the most common method to puncture the skin with a disposable blood sampling needle to obtain blood samples from the plantar region.
2. Blood drop collection method: use auxiliary tools to form a tiny blood drop on the sole of the foot, and then stick the test paper on it to obtain blood samples.
3. Vascular blood sampling method: It is applicable to older infants to collect blood samples from the superficial blood vessels on the sole of the foot.
No matter which method is used, carefully read the instrument manual and consult the professional medical staff before operation.
4、 Interpretation of results
After the test tube baby blood glucose test, the blood glucose instrument will display a specific blood glucose value. According to the age, physiological status of the baby and the doctor's suggestions, the blood sugar values are interpreted to ensure that the baby's sugar metabolism is normal.
The normal blood sugar range varies with age and physiological status. Generally speaking, the blood sugar range of infants should be 3.3-7.7mmol/L. If it is higher or lower than this range, further inspection and diagnosis may be required.
When testing blood glucose of test tube infants, we need to pay attention to postoperative care and observation to ensure that the blood glucose level of infants remains normal. Regular detection of blood sugar and timely treatment of abnormal results are conducive to the healthy growth of infants.
Summary
Through the above introduction, we know that the blood glucose test of test tube infants needs to be prepared, including selecting blood glucose instruments, preparing blood glucose test papers, etc; The methods of collecting blood samples include puncture blood collection, blood drop collection and blood vessel collection; The value displayed by the blood glucose instrument needs to be interpreted according to age and physiological status; Finally, care and observation are needed to ensure that the baby's blood sugar level remains normal.
Through the correct test tube baby blood glucose detection method, we can find and deal with the abnormal blood glucose of babies in time to provide strong support for their healthy growth.
