Abstract
 

There is limited evidence-based consensus regarding the monitoring and management of risk for neonatal hypoglycemia. The nurse is placed in a unique position to routinely offer critical hypoglycemia prevention strategies. So, the Aims of this study were to monitor glucose and provide maternal breast feeding guidance to manage neonatal hypoglycemia. Design Pre-post interventions quiz experimental design was used. Tool consists of three tools the first one a structured interview questionnaire for biosocial characteristics of sample as well health history of mothers and their neonates, the second was Observational Check list on mothers practices for initiation of breast feeding. Derived from Clinical Practice Discussion Check list WHO/CDR/ and UNICEF/NUT/ (2012) as well as assessment of neonatal signs of hypoglycemia. and the third tool was glucometer glucose testing strips. Results indicated that about half of the assessed neonates presented with neonatal hypoglycemia eliminated to 20,89% after 4hrs of continuous breast feeding representing their evidence, more than half of mothers initiate breast feeding after1-<2hrs hrs, and majority of mothers don't follow their pregnancy. Recommendations Programs should be held in neonatal and obstetric units to raise awareness of mothers about signs of neonatal hypoglycemia and its sequels, Replicate the study in a national scale to ensure generalization of results.
