مولود عمره يومين، ولادته كانت بالشفاط، وعنده التورم الظاهر بالصورة لا يعبر خط الدرز. ما أهم شي تراقبه الممرضة؟

A 2-day-old born by vacuum delivery has the swelling shown, which does not cross the suture line. What is most important to monitor?

1. Hypoglycaemia
2. Jaundice (hyperbilirubinaemia)
3. Resolution within 24 hours
4. The need to aspirate the swelling

Answer: B) Jaundice (hyperbilirubinaemia). A cephalohaematoma does not cross sutures and takes weeks to resolve; breakdown of the collected blood raises bilirubin. Aspiration is avoided due to infection risk.
