İnfantil Kolik Tanı ve Tedavisinde Güncel Yaklașımlar

Abstract

Crying during infancy is a regulatory function. Infantile colic may be defined as crying episodes in healthy children, which occurs during some hours a day, lasts for 3 to 4 hours, and cannot be linked to any cause. The frequency of infantile colic is 10-40% with an unknown precise cause. In terms of etiology, the points under discussion are gastrointestinal, neurodevelopmental, and psychosocial causes. It is reported that colicy infants have increased risk of physical abuse and are observed to have behavioral problems like hyperactivity and academic difficulties. It is further reported that findings such as exhaustion, weariness and depression are likely to develop in the parents of colicy infants. In the treatment of infants with infantile colic,the duration and severity of crying, as well as other features which accompany a crying episode should be evaluated in detail. An affected infant should be examined in detail and evaluated in terms of growth and development. When a diagnosis of infantile colic is made following the exclusion of other possible diseases, the families should be advised accordingly. The approaches in the treatment of infantile colic are dietary recommendations, alternative foods, pharmacologic therapies, physical supportive treatments, and behavioral therapies. There is no such treatment available for infantile colic, which has a proven efficacy. It is quite significant to advise the affected families in that colic is typically a temporary condition and to relieve and support them accordingly.
