16 剛出生的早產嬰兒
如圖所示,這是一個剛出生的早產嬰兒,呼吸設備使嬰兒能夠有效地呼吸,期間一個浸濕監控器檢測嬰兒血液中的氧氣濃度是否符合標準。心電圖監控裝置確保心率保持穩定。這張照片別用于一本宣傳手冊,告訴父母早產兒的危害,并給父母施加壓力關注早產兒。圖片來源:維康信托基金圖片庫。

This image was commissioned for a leaflet produced to inform and reassure parents of premature babies. The ventilator allows the child to breathe efficiently while a saturation monitor checks that the oxygen concentration in the bloodstream is satisfactory. ECG monitoring apparatus ensures that the heart rate remains constant. Possibly more pertinent than all the medical equipment is the presence of the child's blanket and teddy bear, showing that comfort is equally important. (Image: Wellcome Photo Library) [NewScientist]
