Filter by:This is a study to evaluate the prevalence of FGIDs in infants using the Thai version of Rome IV diagnostic questionnaire for functional gastrointestinal disorders in infants and evaluate the efficacy of Limosilactobacillus reuteri DSM 17938 to prevent FGIDs in infants.
Rosie the Chatbot is an educational chatbot that moms can have on their computers or cellphones and will work by moms typing in their questions about pregnancy, health, infant milestones, and other variety of health related topics and receiving back a response immediately. Rosie only provides information from verified sources such as children's hospitals, health organizations and government agencies. Rosie does not ask moms to provide any personal information on her or her child, her chat is completely confidential, it works in English and Spanish and will be free.
Under normal conditions, the umbilical cord is removed 5-15 days after birth. It dries up and falls within days. It is extremely important to determine the factors that cause the prolongation of the falling time of the cord, which poses a serious risk for infection. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of umbilical cord care training given to primiparous mothers on the duration of cord fall. It is a randomized controlled type of research. The population of the research will be primiparous mothers who gave birth in the obstetrics clinic of a university hospital. A pilot study will be conducted to determine the number of samples. As a result of the pilot study, power analysis will be performed and the number of samples will be determined. Inclusion criteria of mothers in the study; Data collection tools: "Descriptive Questionnaire" and "Questionnaire for Umbilical Cord Care" will be used to collect research data. Randomization will be done as odd days of the week and even days of the week for sample selection in the study. Primiparous mothers giving birth on odd days of the week will form the group that will receive umbilical cord training, while primiparous mothers giving birth on even days of the week will form the group that does not receive training. The research will be carried out in two stages. In the first stage of the research, after informing the mothers about the study, they will be invited to the research. Written consent will be obtained from mothers who volunteered to participate in the study. Then, the "Descriptive Questionnaire" prepared to describe mothers and babies will be filled. In the second stage of the research: the mothers will be called 15-20 days after the first interview and the "Question Form Regarding Umbilical Cord Care" will be filled.
In this single-center, randomized controlled trial, patients (4-8 months) with CHD were randomly assigned to either a recovery group (home-based rehab exercise periodically) supervised by cellphone APP or to a control group. Left ventricular ejection fractions (LVEF), the rate of increase in heart rate (rHRI), and the rate of recovery heart rate (rHRR) were measured for representing cardiopulmonary capacity. The Alberta test and Neuro-intelligence Scale were used to evaluate their motor developmental outcomes. This study verified the feasibility of this rehab method and indicated that 6-month home-based exercise training can improve cardiopulmonary endurance and motor developmental level in infant CHD patients.
This is a feasibility study with historical control designed to evaluate whether delivery of the placenta prior to umbilical cord clamping at caesarean sections is a feasible, safe and acceptable way of facilitating intact-cord stabilisation of preterm and term newborn infants.
This is a prospective, observational clinical cohort study involving 405 children born premature (at less than 37 weeks gestation) and their mother/parent/guardian. The purpose of the study is to investigate how the microbiome (the collection of microbes in a biological site) of children develops over the first years of life and its associations with the risk of childhood health outcomes including allergies and asthma. The study will also examine how perinatal factors associate with patterns of microbiome development, and their effects on the microbiome, metabolome (the collection of metabolites in a biological sample) and immune development of this population in the first years of life.
Although the current standard for lumbar puncture and spinal anesthesia is the use of manual palpation of surface landmarks to identify the correct interspace, performance of the procedure at too high of a level may increase the incidence of adverse effects. The current study will evaluate the efficacy of ultrasound in identifying the correct intervertebral space for lumbar puncture thereby improving the safety of the procedure.
The investigator aimed to evaluate the effect of ultrasound guided esophageal pressure on the incidence of gastric insufflation during anesthetic induction in infants and small children undergoing general anesthesia.
This is a prospective, longitudinal and observational study designed to investigate the trajectories of postpartum anxiety and its determinants in the first year after childbirth. This study also examine the associations between postpartum anxiety and infant health outcome, including breastfeeding patterns, excessive crying and body weight growth. Primipara aged 20-49 with term baby will be invited. Demographics, maternal-newborn characteristics, and anxiety symptoms will be collected during the first week postpartum (T1). Questionnaires will be follow-up by mail and telephone reminder in 1 (T2), 3 (T3), 6 (T4) and 12 months (T5) postpartum. The primary outcome is postpartum anxiety using the Spielberger's State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI); the secondary outcomes are infant health outcomes including breastfeeding patterns, excessive crying and body weight growth. A linear mixed model (LMM) is used to determine the trajectories of postpartum anxiety over time and to examine whether specific demographic and maternal characteristics predict the trajectories of postpartum anxiety. The key findings may contribute to promote early identification and secondary preventive interventions for women with postpartum anxiety.
This research was conducted to carry out the effect of umbilical cord clamping time on baby anemia.
