1 This is correct. Improper swaddling can cause hip dysplasia. It is especially
important to allow the hips to spread apart and bend up. In the womb, the legs
are in a fetal position with the legs bent up across each other. Sudden
straightening of the legs to a standing position can loosen the joints and damage
the soft cartilage of the socket. This is the most importantamidfor the
nurse to convey.
2 This is unffiting. Correct swaddling will increase the neonate’s comfort, and
provides warmth and a sense of security that can have a calming effect, but
another reason is most important.
3 This is unffiting. Infants are actually only swaddled until they can turn from
back to front. Infants who are swaddled and roll from back to front while
sleeping are at greater risk for SIDS.
4 This is unffiting. Check the tightness of swaddle. The parent should be able to
get two to three fingers between the infant’s chest and the swaddle, but this I not
the most important reason to convey.
