Filter by:To evaluate the intervention effects of Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis strain BLa80 in promoting growth and development (including gut microbiota and physical growth and development) of healthy infants and young children across different age groups, enhancing immune function, improving allergy incidence, and analyzing the safety of BLa80 in relation to infant growth and development, allergy incidence, and gut microbiota.
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of kangaroo care on the vital signs of infants undergoing cardiac surgery. Hypothesis 1 (H1): Oxygen saturation levels of babies who are given kangaroo care are higher than babies who are not given kangaroo care. Hypothesis 2 (H2): The peak heart rate of infants who receive kangaroo care is lower than infants who do not receive kangaroo care. Hypothesis 3 (H3): The respiratory rate of infants who receive kangaroo care is lower than infants who do not receive kangaroo care. Hypothesis 4 (H4): The arterial blood pressure of infants who receive kangaroo care is lower than infants who do not receive kangaroo care. Hypothesis 5 (H5): The pain score of infants who received kangaroo care is lower than infants who did not receive kangaroo care.
This study investigates the level of agreement of two non-invasive cardiac output monitors (transthoracic echocardiography and electrical cardiometry) in young children under anesthesia.
This study will compare infant gut bacteria for infants who have been fed a standard infant formula (Enfamil Infant); infants who have been fed a new infant formula designed to be more similar to breast milk (Enfamil NeuroPro); and breastfed infants. These formulas are currently available on the market and meet FDA requirements for infant formula.
Improving the quality of life of preterm children by 2035 is the top priority of worldwide health organisations, including the WHO. Every year, 15 million preterm infants, particularly those under 32 weeks of age, are at significant risk of neurocognitive impairments with adverse health consequences (disability, developmental delay, disease), exacerbated by the lack of post-hospital care for newborns. Intervening on the health of the preterm newborn through certain types of "touch" from its first days of life to activate its cutaneous senses permits, in reality, a significant improvement in the clinical state of the infant, hence promoting its growth, development, and social behaviour. In the neonatal period, during which significant neurological development occurs, tactile interactions and close physical proximity between infants and caregivers have significant short-term effects on the health of premature infants (weight gain, brain and vision development) and medium- to long-term effects on their development and expression of sociability. The likelihood that a premature newborn may develop attention and autism spectrum disorders, brain, gastrointestinal, and respiratory difficulties, as well as sleep disorders during the preschool years, is so high that clinical and social settings must prioritise care. Utilizing functional magnetic resonance imaging (fRMI), computerized electroencephalogram (EEG), and metabolomics, the research aims to explore the effects of touch, including physiotherapy and manual therapy (OMT) approaches, on brain activity. This research intends to examine the impact of touch on premature infants' brain activity (physical biomarker) and metabolic activity (biological biomarker).
This pilot study aims to examine the feasibility and acceptability of adding a cardiovascular health module to the existing Nurse Family Partnership (NFP) home visitation program delivered by trained nurses in the Northern Appalachian region of Central Pennsylvania.
Recurrent and painful interventions such as heel lancing, venipuncture, dressing change, endotracheal aspiration are frequently performed in neonatal intensive care units (NICU). Touch is one of the infant's earliest developing senses. Therefore it is very important among individualized supportive care practices. Correct stimulation of the infant's sense of touch affects psychosocial development positively. In addition, it is reported that touch has a calming and analgesic effect during invasive interventions. Therefore, there is a need for touch appropriate for development of newborn. The aim of this study was determine the effect of Yakson and Gentle Human Touch on pain and physiologic parameters in preterm infants during endotracheal aspiration.
Recently, with reference to the successful experience of accelerated rehabilitation surgery in the field of adult surgery, the investigators have conducted studies on ERAS in pediatric and even infant cholangiectasia surgery to discuss its feasibility and safety. The results showed that some items of ERAS could be safely applied in perioperative management of CBD, and could reduce traumatic stress and promote postoperative recovery. Therefore, the investigators assumed that the ERAS protocols could be safely applied in the treatment of CBD in children and even infants, reducing traumatic stress in children with CBD, promoting postoperative rehabilitation, reducing complications and hospitalization time, reducing hospitalization costs, and saving medical resources.
Pain will bring early and long-term adverse reactions to infants. The investigators need to pay attention to whether there is pain in infants after surgery. Since infants cannot self-report pain,The investigators need to use appropriate pain assessment scale to evaluate the pain of these infants, so as to understand the status of postoperative pain in children. The result of pain score not only enables investigators to understand the pain status of children, but also helps investigators to give corresponding intervention and treatment according to the pain degree of children. Postoperative pain management is one of the core contents of ERAS. Effective pain management is beneficial to the early postoperative recovery of infants and reduces the adverse reactions caused by pain. Sveral studies have confirmed that the combination of acetaminophen and opioids could reduce the use of opioids after surgery. But even if opioid use is reduced, it still causes many side effects for children. This study evaluated the safety and efficacy of acetaminophen alone for postoperative analgesia in infants.
Until today, there is only little information available on how severe RSV infection leading to hospitalisation of the infant impacts the quality of life of affected families. For the ResQ Family project, an online questionnaire will be used to survey parents or caregivers of children up to 24 months currently or recently hospitalised (length of hospital stay of at least 12 hours and hospital admission no longer than 4 weeks ago) due to RSV infection. The aim of the ResQ Family project is to find out how infant RSV hospitalisation impacts the quality of life of affected children and their families. The goal is further to provide scientific evidence on the burden of RSV and raise awareness among all relevant stakeholders including healthcare professionals and patient representatives, decision-makers and the general public. The project will run until June 2024. Data collection will take place during the RSV season from fall 2022 to spring 2023 in four European countries: France, Germany, Italy, and Sweden.
