Özet
Dear Editor,
Newborns have a high risk of extravasation in intravenous infusions due to their
small vascular structure and immature skin. Calcium gluconate is widely used in the
treatment of neonatal hypocalcaemia. However, the extravasation of this fluid into
surrounding tissues can result in tissue damage that may lead to necrosis (1).
Freeing the necrotic tissue of devitalized tissues is critical in regaining skin's natural
integrity and reducing the risk of secondary infections. For the debridement of
tissue necrosis related skin ulcer, surgical, mechanical, autolytic, enzymatic and
chemical methods are used (2). In this study, we aim the present the case of a
newborn who developed skin necrosis due to extravasation of calcium and was
treated with hydrogel treatment containing calcium alginate and sodium
carboxymethylcellulose.
