This is a selection of recent popular blogs from Mum Mum, where parents can find information on everything to do with babies and parenting with an emphasis on health and nutrition. U.S. Questions Baby Bottle Safety The debate over plastic bottle safety shows no signs slowing down. Following a controversial Today Show episode, consumers are even more confused about the facts regarding plastic bottle usage, including baby bottles. Although no definitive facts have been found, the post explains the MSNBC report that states the federal National Toxicology Program found plastic bottles do indeed present a health risk. Comprised of scientists from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the Institutes of Health, and the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) the National Toxicology Programs initial draft urges that the results cannot be dismissed even though the study was performed on animals. New Jersey lawmakers are already taking action and passed a bill banning the sales of BPA products. While environmental groups view the study as a welcome validation for years of concern, chemical manufacturers state consumers should not overreact, as more research is needed. Mum Mums urges vulnerable populations such as expecting mums and infants to err to the side of caution and reduce plastic bottle usage. Organoderm Safe for Pregnant Women and Children It can be a challenge these days for mothers to find safe, effective personal care products they feel good about using for themselves and their children. The Environmental Working Group states the average woman comes in contact with about 168 chemicals from the use of skin care products, many of which government agencies view as potentially harmful. The post highlights a new product on the market named Organoderm that is both USDA and Circle of Green Certified Organic. Developed by Dr. Edward Domanskis, the physician found that although meeting the stringent requirements of both certifying agencies was a challenge, providing safe products was a priority. Circle of Green is an independent organic certifying agency that ensures products are not only free from chemicals, but also requires that the packaging is biodegradable. National Initiative for Childrens Health Care Quality Find Drug Errors Hurt 1 in 15 Hospitalized Kids Most parents put a great deal of faith in the doctors and nurses when their child is in the hospital, yet physicians make mistakes just like everyone else. In an effort to discover just how many mistakes are made during care for hospitalized children, researchers reviewed 1,000 randomly chosen medical charts. As Mum Mums explains, researchers found more mistakes than they had predicted. The National Initiative for Childrens Healthcare Quality researchers found approximately 11 adverse drug effects for every 100 children and about 2.5 triggers for a potential error per patient. Safety experts advise the number of errors is probably much larger due to the fact only a select number of charts were reviewed. Researchers created a tool to seek for triggers in a childs medical chart that denoted instances in which administered medications came with a higher risk of problems. This new research tool however, found 4% more medical errors than hospitals own tools. The good news is that 97% of the medication errors caused only temporary, minor discomforts. The study also found that many errors could have been prevented and could have been detected sooner. The Joint Commission issued an advisory to physicians to exercise more caution when administering drugs by calculating proper dosage and obtaining a childs current weight.

“妈妈”博客报道：美国质疑奶瓶的安全性；孕妇儿童专用的Organoderm 护肤品；国家倡议儿童卫生保
此文段出自最近广受欢迎的“妈妈”博客，父母亲们可以在这里找到一切关于处理婴儿与父母健康营养问题的信息。美国质疑婴儿塑料奶瓶的安全性，由此引起的争论沸沸扬扬。据备受争议的“今日秀”节目所述，消费者越来越质疑塑料瓶的使用性，包括奶瓶。虽然没有明确的事实根据，报告对MSNBC（微软和国家广播公司合作建立的顶尖网络新闻服务机构）关于美国国家毒理学项目发现塑料瓶的确存在安全隐患的报告做出了解释。尽管研究仅实施在动物身上，由美国食品和药物管理局、健康协会、疾病控制中心的科学家组成的国家毒理学项目的初稿仍极力倡导此项结果。新泽西的立法者已经采取行动通过了一项禁止销售BPA（国际权威发行量认证机构）产品的议案。虽然环保组织认为，此项研究终究会因长久以来的担忧而被证实，化学品生产商仍坚持主张消费者不应如此过度反应，仍需更多的研究来证实。“妈妈”敦促诸如孕妇、婴儿等敏感人群要谨慎行事和减少塑料瓶的使用。如今，对妈妈们来说，寻找一件安全有效的，适用于他们自己和孩子的个人护理产品是一个很大的考验。环保工作组织说，普通女性通过使用皮肤护理产品接触了168种化学药品，很多政府机构认为这潜在着危害。报告重点介绍了市场上被命名为Organoderm的新产品，此产品通过了USDA（美国国家有机认证）机构和有机循环绿色认证机构的认证。继Edward Domanskis博士之后，医生认为，虽然很难同时符合两种认证机构严格的要求，但提供安全的产品乃是当务之急。“绿色循环”是一个独立的有机认证机构，它不仅保证了产品不含化学成分，同时还要求包装能被生物所分解。“国家倡议儿童卫生保健质量组织”发现药物过失使得1/15的住院孩子受到伤害。虽然很多父母亲在其孩子住院时对医生和护士寄予了厚望，但医生还是像其他人一样会犯错。为了找出在照料住院孩子期间，医疗医护者犯了多少错误，研究人员随机抽查了1000份医疗记录。正如“妈妈”所说的，研究员发现错误远远超出他们的意料。国家倡议儿童卫生保健质量组织发现平均每100个孩子中约有11人产生药物副作用，约有2.5人因潜在的过失引发了一系列的反应。安全专家告知，由于只是审查了部分的医疗记录，过失的数目很有可能更大。研究员们发明了一种方法，以便于探究孩子医疗记录里的引发因素。医疗记录暗示了药物支配存在着高风险的问题。相对于医院自身的方法，新的研究方法发现了多于原有方法的4%的医疗过失。值得庆幸的是，97%的药物过失只会引起暂时的，轻微的不适。此外，研究表明，许多过失本是可以避免或及早发现的。联合委员会建议医生用药时通过精确的适当的给药和实现孩子的正常体重来练就越加的谨慎。
