developed immunities to widespread diseases. When a country has a high rate of infant death‚ it usually signals high mortality risk from infectious‚ parasitic‚ communicable‚ and other diseases associated with poor sanitary conditions and malnourishment (www.prb.org). As a result‚ the infant mortality rate‚ which is the number of deaths of children under age 1 per 1‚000 live births‚ is considered one of the most sensitive measures of a nation ’s health (McKenzie‚ 2005). Infant death is an important measure

Respiratory system: The respiratory system is a combination of the Circulatory and Pulmonary systems feeding oxygen and nutrients to cells all around the body. These systems allow oxygen to enter the body‚ and be circulated around the body at a varying rate. These two systems work in conjunction with each other and have various rates of operation that are usually in as close a correlation as possible. Circulatory System: The circulatory system’s primary responsibility is to circulate oxygenated

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) Introduction of the Lungs: The primary role of our respiratory system is the exchange of gases in our blood stream. As we inhale our lungs take in Oxygen (O2)‚ as we exhale our lungs release Carbon Dioxide (CO2). The major parts of the respiratory system consist of; The upper respiratory tract consists of the nose‚ sinuses‚ mouth‚ larynx and throat. The lower respiratory tract consists of trachea‚ bronchial tubes and the lungs. The right lung

Attachment in Infants Jessica N. Summerlin Rasmussen College Attachment in Infants Ever wonder where to draw the line with the amount of attention you give an infant?

the Study The longitudinal study conducted by Stupica‚ Sherman and Cassidy (2011) examined whether there was a correlation between infant irritability (maximally vs. moderately irritable) and infant attachment (secure vs. insecure). Researchers wanted to reveal whether the two were associated when infants took part in exploration and sociability with unfamiliar adults. Stupica et al. points out many factors that may contribute to an infant’s wariness in exploration and sociability. Some influences

Strategies to Aid in Infant Development As new parents soon realize‚ the development that occurs during infancy is a period of rapid changes. Not only is a new child growing physically‚ but she is also developing cognitive‚ social‚ and emotional skills that will endure throughout her lifespan. However‚ it can be difficult to tease apart the different needs of an infant. It is our hope to aid in this area by providing a set of guidelines that will direct parenting strategies in a way that will

The respiratory system The respiratory system is responsible for providing oxygen and removing carbon dioxide‚ heat and water vapours. All living creatures require oxygen and give off carbon dioxide. Oxygen is required for every cell in your body to function. Structure of the respiratory system: Normally air is taken in through your nose however sometimes it is taken in through your mouth and passes through a series of airways to reach the lungs. This series of airways is known as the respiratory
