After the birth of a child, in order to ensure their healthy and good development, and to detect potential hazards in advance, it is necessary to regularly visit the pediatric health department of a hospital for child health check ups. Some parents are curious about the age of children targeted by the pediatric health department? How long does it usually take to go to the pediatric health department? Below, the editor will give you an answer.
The child care department mainly focuses on the health care of children from birth to the age of 3. Generally, the child care time is 2 weeks after the child is born, as well as when the child is one, two, four, six, and nine months old. Then, starting from the child's first year, the child care needs to be done every three months, starting from the second year, it needs to be done every six months, and after the age of three, it can be done once a year.
The period from successful birth to within 28 days is generally referred to as the neonatal period. During this period, child health mainly emphasizes care, such as warmth, feeding, skin hygiene, disinfection and isolation. From the age of 1 to the age of 3, it is the early childhood period. At this time, due to the increased exposure of children to the outside world and their relatively weak immune and disease resistance, it is easy for them to be infected and sick. Therefore, disease prevention is a key focus of health care during this period.
From this, it can be seen that the interval between child health insurance for newborns is relatively short. As the child grows up, the interval will gradually be extended. This is because as the child's physical fitness improves, their resistance and immune ability will also be enhanced, making them less prone to illness. Therefore, there is no need to frequently go to the child health department for disease prevention.
