Abstract

The low concentration of vitamin K in human breast milk and the predisposition to vitamin K deficiency bleeding following exclusive breast feeding is emerging as a matter of concern especially in developing countries where exclusive breast feeding is vigorously advocated to promote optimal health in the infant. Most reports of late HDN have been in babies born at home and not given vitamin K prophylaxis, In rural areas of our country (due to lack of knowledge of vit. K prophylaxis) late HDN is not uncommon in Hospital deliveries also.

Keywords: Hemorrhagic Disease of Newborn; VIT. K prophylaxis.
