  • Description:
    Protect your baby from bleeds – talk to your healthcare provider about vitamin K [Spanish] Antes de tener un bebé, la mayoría de los padres no piensa mucho en la inyección de vitamina K para su recién nacido. Es algo de lo que simplemente no se habla durante los chequeos prenatales, aun cuando a los bebés se les ha puesto esta importante inyección — de manera rutinaria, al nacer— desde que la Academia Americana de Pediatría recomendó esta práctica por primera vez en 1961. La vitamina K es necesaria para que la sangre se coagule normalmente. Los bebés nacen con muy poca cantidad de vitamina K en sus organismos lo que puede dar origen a serios problemas de sangrado. Las investigaciones muestran que una sola inyección de vitamina K al nacer protege a su bebé de peligrosos sangrados que pueden causar daño cerebral e incluso la muerte. Pregúntele a su médico sobre los beneficios de la vitamina K antes del parto. Proteja a su recién nacido asegurándose de que reciba la inyección justo después de nacer.
