Retinopathy of prematurity is a leading cause of blindness in babies born prematurely. A major contributor to retinopathy of prematurity is prolonged exposure to high levels of oxygen. Ineffective weaning of oxygen has caused an increase in the amount of patients diagnosed with retinopathy of prematurity. Guidelines have been established to prevent, screen, and treat retinopathy of prematurity. Two types of treatment are cryosurgery and retinal laser ablation. It is important that units where premature neonates are taken care of incorporate an oxygen-weaning plan to prevent retinopathy of prematurity. Deborah Johnson’s behavioral system model can be applied to NICU nursing. Nursing behaviors can be planned and implemented for these neonates to have the best outcomes. Nurses play a vital role in the prevention of this disease.. Chen, MD, PhD . July 15th, 2016. Grand Rounds. History. CC:. . Premature baby boy with both eye problems. . HPI. : .
