    This document provides information on nursing care for high risk newborns who are small or large for gestational age. Small for gestational age newborns may experience predisposing factors like maternal infections or malnutrition and need supportive treatment including frequent feedings and glucose monitoring. Nurses should support respiratory efforts, provide adequate nutrition and hydration, and facilitate growth while keeping parents informed. Large for gestational age newborns are at risk for issues like hypoglycemia and may be plump-faced with weights over 400g due to genetic or diabetes-related factors.
