Filter by:The admission of a newborn to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) represents a potentially harmful sound environment coupled with multiple stressful events. However, a strategy such as music therapy (delivered by a trained music therapist) appears to be a non-invasive, safe, and cost-effective alternative that assists newborns in their physiological self-regulation with a beneficial effect on stabilizing neonatal vital signs, so it can be used as a complementary strategy to medical management. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of live and pre-recorded music therapy on vital sign variables in newborns older than 32 weeks hospitalized in the neonatal intensive care unit of a high-complexity health institution in Colombia.
The study aims to compare the success and time of intubation through an intubating laryngeal mask vs. direct laryngoscopy in a manikin simulating a term infant. In addition, we will assess the operator's opinion on the procedure. This is an unblinded, randomized, controlled, crossover (AB/BA) pilot trial of intubation procedure through intubating laryngeal mask vs direct laryngoscopy in a manikin simulating a term newborn.
There are many causes of admission of neonates in Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.So knowing such causes and their outcomes will give us knowledge about different risk factors of each disease and the prognosis of each cause.
In recent days, necrotizing enterocolitis is one of the most common and devastating problem in preterm infants. Therefore, it became a high growing research topic in the last decade. The development of medical care increases the survival of preterm babies and consequently increase the number of cases with this serious problem. A systematic review shows the incidence of necrotizing enterocolitis is about 2-7% in babies less than 32weeks gestation and 5-22% in baby's birth weight less than 1000gram.
