Nurse's Role Clinical Trial
Official title:
Psychometric Properties of the SMART Feeding Tool
This observational study aims to evaluate the psychometric properties of a new infant feeding tool called "SMART Tool" in the neonatal intensive care unit. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. To design a feeding tool to assess oral motor and neurobehavioral skills in neonates 2. To establish psychometrics of the new tool by doing reliability and validity tests.
Research supports the use of infant-directed feeding practices versus a volume-driven approach. Infant-directed feeding practices provide developmentally supportive and neuroprotective care to fragile feeders. In addition, various assessment tools exist to evaluate both breast and bottle feeding. Assessment tools are crucial to feeders with guidance in their decision-making, identifying when an infant is ready to feed and recognizing any feeding-related safety concerns. The scoring of a tool should provide an opportunity to reflect on the strengths and areas of deficit in feeding events and allow feeders to modify feeding practices for the next attempt or pursue further assessment by a feeding specialist. Few tools exist to evaluate both oral skills and neurobehavioral skills. Some tools available have inadequate psychometric data to support their use. If robust psychometrics exist, the length and complexity of the device may intimidate users and deter consistent use. The SMART tool was developed to capture the multifaceted aspects of feeding while remaining brief in its administration time. The tool provides an opportunity to evaluate skills and develop a plan after feeding to provide consistent quality care. Additionally, tracking scores over time helps in patient safety for the goal of a high-reliability organization. This study has two objectives: 1. to create a new tool using synactive development theory and trauma-informed care approach for neonates and 2. to establish this tool's psychometrics (validity and reliability). This multicenter trial will be done over four sites (NICU) in Advocate Aurora Health (AAH) to observe feeding events in neonates. Before and after each feed, scoring of feeding quality will be done to do psychometrics. If the study succeeds, this tool will be employed in clinical care in all the NICUs of AAH.
