Filter by:Motherhood Our Lady of Good Help is from the 2006 merger of three hospitals, St. Joseph, Our Lady of Good Help and Saint-Michel. She was transferred to a new building in the heart of Paris Saint-Joseph Hospital Group website in March 2011. The premises of the birth room are spacious and nice. All delivery rooms are supposed to welcome the mother and child when the birth goes smoothly. There is a resuscitation room (called "Nursery") for newborns requiring medical care. But since the installation in the new building, the investigators had the impression that a number of children born without pathology futures and with good adaptation at birth passed through this room for no apparent medical reason. The investigators wanted to make an inventory of home practice healthy newborns in our maternity, evaluate the reasons for a possible separation and appreciate the feelings of mothers cope with this separation.
Cow's milk protein (CMP) allergy is one of the most common food allergies and potentially a fatal one. Early feeding with CMP has been considered in the past as a risk factor for development of CMP allergy in high risk infants. Although other studies argue with this assumption and suggest early exposure to CMP might be protective against atopic dermatitis and CMP allergy. A cohort study that first introduction of CMP after 15-30 days of age, raised the risk for CMP allergy.The aim of this study is to investigate if early and continuous exposure to CMF will decrease CMP allergy rate.
This cluster-randomised controlled trial will test the hypothesis that a multifaceted program with psychological intervention in morbidity mortality conferences (MMC) improve care quality and reduce the rate of morbidity mortality perinatal in diverse obstetric care settings.
In the Pico-Union/Koreatown community of Los Angeles investigators are designing a preventive health care model that increases the opportunities for families to make healthy choices -- in their homes, schools & communities. The project's key element is: Lay community health workers (paraprofessionals) - Mentor Mothers (MM) (promotoras) - who make home visits to pregnant mothers & newly-delivered mothers who have agreed to participate in the research study. Investigators hope to achieve the following outcomes: 1) lower maternal BMI at 6 months post-birth; 2) longer duration of breastfeeding; 3) less alcohol, smoking, and drug use during pregnancy; and 4) increased and consistent prenatal and postnatal healthcare adherence. Investigators will implement the study with 6 MMs, who will maintain an average caseload of 16 women each across an 18-month period. Each participant will be visited (or receive the intervention by telephone) twice per month. Separate Assessment Team members will conduct assessments at: Baseline, within a week of birth of the target child, and 6 months from birth.
