W\u00eareld-prematuurdag is by verskeie hospitale en klinieke gevier en Beanies4Babies het hulle projek by die Boitumelo-streekhospitaal in Kroonstad se neonatale eenheid geloods ter viering van die dag. \r<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Op Donderdag 20 November, het Beanies4Babies ‘n niewinsgewende organisasie, hulle projek by die Boitumelo hospitaal ter viering van w\u00eareld-prematuurdag geloods.\r<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die organisasie streef daarna om hipotermie, ‘n liggaamstemperatuur onder 36,5\u00b0C, te help voorkom in babas wat met ‘n liggaamsmassa van minder as 2,5kg gebore word. \r<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dit is veral krities gedurende die eerste 12 uur n\u00e1 geboorte en daarom moet die babas direk n\u00e1 geboorte met ‘n mussie en kousies bedek word.\r<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die projek is aanvanklik in 2018 deur dr. Johan\u00e9 Palko en Clarette Alfond in Bloemfontein van stapel gestuur. As vierdejaar-geneeskundestudent het Palko die nood raakgesien om hierdie kwesbare groep babas beter teen koue te beskerm.\r<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lae geboortegewig-babas (minder as 2,5kg) en veral prematuurgebore babas is geneig tot hipotermie weens verskeie redes:\r<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u25a0 Hulle kopomtrek beslaan ‘n groot deel van hul liggaamsoppervlakte.\r<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u25a0 Hulle velletjies is baie dun.\r<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u25a0 Hulle het beperkte vetreserwes om energie vir hitte op te wek.\r<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u25a0 Hulle kan nie bewe soos volwassenes nie.\r<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dr. Palko s\u00ea die verantwoordelikheid rus op hulle as gesondheidswerkers met die hulp van die gemeenskap om die baba te help beskerm en warm te hou. Die projek funksioneer reeds in vyf provinsies en verskaf meer as 2 000 produkte per maand aan fasiliteite regoor die land.\r<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Ons almal weet hoe snerpend koud die Kroonstad-winters kan wees, daarom vra ek met ‘n nederige hart vir my tuisdorp om die projek te ondersteun. Dit is ‘n voorreg om terug te kan gee aan die dorp wat al soveel aan my gegee het, en dat my ma die projek namens die organisasie hier kan dryf,” s\u00ea Palko.\r<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As ‘n niewinsgewende organisasie is hulle afhanklik van die gemeenskap vir vrywilligers om produkte te maak, asook vir finansi\u00eble donasies om wol, sakkies en plakkers aan te koop. \r<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hulle benodig ook vrywilligers om produkte te brei of te hekel, en dit dan te verpak. Die projekleiers voorsien die wol en verpakkingsmateriaal. Patrone is beskikbaar, en kan afgelaai word op hul webtuiste, beanies4babies.org\/patterns\/\r<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Belangstellendes wat wil betrokke raak kan vir Christa Potgieter kontak of via die webtuiste uitreik.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
