Abstract

Wessel ve ark. tarafından üç haftadan fazla, haftada en az üç gün, günde üç saati aşan huzursuzluk ve ağlama nöbet- leri olarak tanımlanan kolikum infantum doğumu izleyen, ilk üç ayda çok sık rastlanan bir yakınmadır. Kolikum infantumu açıklamaya yönelik çeşitli teoriler öne sürül- müştür, ancak, etiyoloji kesin aydınlatılamamıştır. Ayırıcı tanıda infeksiyonlar, gastrointestinal sorunlar, travma, beslenme, ilaç reaksiyonu, nörolojik nedenler ve kardiyo- vasküler nedenler düşünülmelidir. Kolikum infantumun etkili bir tedavisi yoktur. Ağlamaya erken yanıt, aşırı uya- rıdan kaçınma, hafif yatıştırıcı hareketler, emzik kullanımı, kanguru kullanımı ve bebeğin yanında elektrik süpürgesi çalıştırma gibi uygulamalar infantil koliği azaltmada yara- rı olabilir

Infantile Colic

Abstract

Colicum infantum which is described by Wessel et al, is a frequently encountered complaint which can be seen in infants within the first three months after delivery and is characterized by excessive uneasiness and crying episodes which may continue more than 3 weeks and at least 3 days in a week. There are several theories related with the exp- lanation of colicum infantum, but the etiology of the condi- tion is not definitely clarified. Infections, gastrointestinal problems, trauma, nutritional deficits, drug reaction, neu- rological problems and cardiovascular disorders should be considered in the differential diagnosis. There is no effecti- ve treatment for colicum infantum. However, early respon- se to crying episodes, avoiding excessive stimuli, slight caressing movements, sucking a pacifier, using a baby kangaroo and running a vacuum cleaner nearby the infant may help to decrease colicum infantum
