Filter by:To examine the effects of sensorimotor interventions applied to in preterm infants on readiness for feeding and oral feeding success.
ABSTRACT Objective: To test the effect of the Premature Infant Oral Motor Intervention (PIOMI) at 29-30 weeks post-menstrual age on the development of oral-motor function and sucking capacity. Study Design: This study was a single-blind randomized controlled experimental design. The sample consisted of 60 preterm babies from two Neonatal Intensive Care Units in Gaziantep, Turkey between May 2019 and March 2020, with 30 each in the control and experimental groups. The PIOMI was applied to the experimental group for five minutes a day for 14 consecutive days. Sucking capacity, growth, feeding outcomes, and length of hospital stay (LOS) were measured. The Yakut Manometer Measuring Suction Power (PCT/TR2019/050678) was developed specifically for this study and tested for the first time.
Background: Maternal and paternal breastfeeding self-efficacy is an important factor and could be modified in improving breastfeeding outcomes. Conducting breastfeeding educational intervention that involves the husband as well as incorporating a web-based platform based on breastfeeding self-efficacy theory is needs to be explored. Objectives: The aim to investigate the effectiveness of the web-based educational intervention on breastfeeding self-efficacy and breastfeeding outcomes. Methods: A randomized control trial will be conducted to investigate the effectiveness of the web-based educational intervention on breastfeeding self-efficacy and breastfeeding outcomes. 80 mothers and fathers from primary health care and public hospital in Jakarta will be recruited in this study and will randomly allocate using block randomization. The participants in the intervention group will receive standard usual care and web-based educational intervention, while the control group will receive usual care. The outcomes of this study are breastfeeding self-efficacy, depression, anxiety, infant feeding attitude, as well as breastfeeding outcomes that will be measured at baseline, 38 weeks of pregnancy, 1 week, 1, 3, and 6 months. A generalized Linear Model will be used to test the effect of the intervention for the group, time as well as group and time interaction. Anticipatory result:The educational intervention will be effective in helping mothers and fathers receiving interventions to have higher breastfeeding self-efficacy, lower levels of depression and anxiety, higher breastfeeding attitude as well as exclusive breastfeeding rate compared to mothers and fathers in the control group.

Infancy is an important target period for obesity prevention because once obese as an infant, the relative risk of remaining obese appears to rise with increasing age at great cost to both individuals and society. The ability to self-regulate energy intake (eating when hungry and stopping when full) is vital to obesity prevention and it is thought that this ability can be derailed by a chronic mismatch between parental feeding behavior and the infant's state (feeding in the absence of hunger and/or feeding beyond fullness). The study will test a novel intervention to help parents and pre-verbal infants better understand one another during feeding and it will offer new insight into how self-regulation of energy intake develops during infancy.
Neurological-developmental evaluations and developmental outcomes-diagnoses of premature babies are evaluated according to corrected postnatal age. Based on the limited evidence available, it can be concluded that complementary feeding may be an appropriate age for most premature babies who have reached at least the third month, generally corrected. However, for premature babies born at different gestational weeks, these periods have a relatively different meaning. A more accurate timeframe can be found in terms of complementary nutrition by evaluating chronological age and motor development together. More prospective observational studies are needed in this regard in premature babies. In the literature, there are not enough studies on the transition time to the most appropriate complementary diet for premature babies. The investigators planned to do this prospective observational study. In this study, patient groups will be randomly selected after appropriate matching. Premature babies participating in the study will be handled in three main groups (six subgroups in total). The data will be added to the case report forms. In addition to routine follow-ups, families will be called on the phone monthly, information about their babies' nutrition will be asked, whether there is a problem, questions of families will be answered, and information about complementary nutrition will be provided. At the end of the study, all data will be collected and entered into the SPSS database, which will be created.
Parents' mental health contributes to their feeding practices how they perceive and respond to their children's behavior. Suboptimal feeding practices may promote dysfunctional eating behaviours in children and contribute to children's weigh. The purpose of this review is to identify existing literature on the association between parents' stress and their feeding styles and practices
The First Heroes study plans to influence weight and health trajectories, modify disease risk, and improve health care services for mother-father-infant triads from racial/ethnic minority and health disparity populations. This study is a two-arm, randomized controlled trial recruiting from Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) obstetrics practices. This study will enroll 250 father-mother dyads in the second trimester of pregnancy and intervene through their offspring's 1-year birthday. Each mother-father dyad participating will be randomly assigned to one of two arms: 1. Obstetric and Pediatric Standard of Care + New Parent Engagement Intervention Arm or; 2. Obstetric and Pediatric Standard of Care + Safety Control Arm.
Continuous feeding is the most popular enteral feeding mode in the ICU because of its lower nursing burden and theoretically better intestinal toleration. However, continuous feeding is nonphysiological. We proposed a feeding mode called sequential feeding, as it utilizes a combination of continuous feeding in the beginning, time-restricted feeding in the second stage, and oral feeding at last. The gut microbiota plays a critical role in human health due to its many useful functions. Not only dietary structure but also eating mode (eating time for example) influenced the gut microbiota in a healthy population. Therefore, we think this new feeding mode, sequential feeding, also has different influences on gut microbiota and metabolomics in critically ill patients compared to continuous feeding.
This study will is a parallel two-group randomized controlled trial that will use the MiniMed 670G hybrid closed-loop system's continuous glucose monitor (GCM) insulin pump and computer algorithm to deliver insulin when in "auto mode". This study will be conducted in women with type 1 diabetes after delivery of their neonate to see if "auto-mode" improves blood sugar control, episodes of low blood sugar, burden of diabetes self-care, alters baby's weight and feeding patterns, and partner diabetes distress.
The purpose of this study is to gain a better understanding of how energy density and cognitive framing of satiation using food information can influence consumption at a meal. This study also aims to investigate the influence of energy density and food information on sensory specific satiety (the decline in the subjective pleasantness of a food as it is eaten).
