Retour sur le fait divers et les gestes indispensables à adopter pour prévenir un érythème fessier.On August 30, 2017, Zachary Koehn called for help by claiming that his son under 4 months old died of sudden infant death.Arriving on the spot, the emergency services of Mount Pleasant, in the United States, very quickly notice that something is wrong.The autopsy will confirm their doubts, since she revealed that Sterling had lost his life for a much more serious reason: the little boy suffered from a gluteal erythema which caused a serious infection, reports the site of the monks register.
According to the experts who examined the child, he kept the same layer for "9 to 14 days".It resulted in such serious gluteal erythema that his skin has cracked, allowing the bacteria E.Coli, present in his layer, to infect his blood.In addition, the little boy spent the same duration in his cradle, in a confined room filled with flies.These have laid eggs in its language, which means that asticots grouped in it, in the clothes, and even under the baby's skin.In addition to all this, the forensic doctors indicated that the baby suffered from malnutrition and dehydration, to the point that his weight at the time of his death was higher than that at birth, that is to say less3.17 kilos.
Vidéo du jour :In Mount Pleasant, a trial is currently taking place to judge Sterling's father, Zachary Koehn, 29.Her mother, Cheyanne Haris, 21, will be tried later.They are accused of first-degree murder and endangering children causing death, charges for whom they pleaded unavailable at the opening of the judgment and during their interrogations.But for the prosecutor, Coleman McAlister, there is no doubt that there was voluntary mistreatment.The 2 -year -old couple's eldest girl is in perfect health, which is for him the sign that the death of the little boy cannot be attributed to the fact that her parents did not know how to take care of a child.Furthermore, the lack of means cannot justify the fact that his layer was not changed or that he was poorly fed, since his father earns more than 39,500 euros per year, in addition to benefiting from'Health coverage through his work.The baby's mother admitted to consuming methamphetamine and having used this drug a few weeks before her death.For the representative of the law, this declaration comes to bring new evidence of mistreatment: a friend who came regularly to his home to consume drugs with the couple, and who will testify to the trial, indicates that the door of the boy's room wasall the time closed, and that he even did not know that they had had a baby.
Grounds erythema: how to prevent and cure it?
Faced with such a story, it seems important to recall the gestures to prevent buttock erythema.Without falling into cases of mistreatment as for Sterling, a baby who has red buttocks can experience an infection, in addition to being very uncomfortable.It can be caused by the maceration of urine or stools in the layer, and that is why must always change regularly (four to six times a day) the bed of a baby and clean it.Thus, it must be changed as soon as it is full to put a new one.In addition, giving a bath every day to the child until the age of 3 years is important to prevent him.
The buttock erythema can also be caused by an allergy, or by diarrhea caused by dental thrust.In any case, you must act quickly if you notice the symptoms (red and irritated buttocks, but also sometimes thighs or genitals), and strengthen your baby's hygiene.In addition, an antiseptic and healing ointment must be applied, which will soothe irritation by hydrating the skin while disinfecting the area to avoid infection and more serious problems.
