Premature Birth Clinical Trial
Official title:
Combining Neonatal Neurobehavioral (Brazelton) And Motor Behavior (Prechtl) In The Assessment And Ultra Early Physical Therapy Intervention Of Premature Infants
Investigation of the combination of neonatal neurobehaviourism and motor behavior in the assessment and ultra-early physical therapy intervention of premature neonates and parental support.
Developments in neonatology and perinatal medicine in recent years have resulted in a remarkable development of the survival of premature infants. At the same time, several evaluation and intervention protocols have been developed, aiming at early diagnosis and intervention, but also and studies that are concluding and highlight the need for future well planed and in-depth research, mainly in areas related to early intervention. T. Brazeltons' (1973) Neonatal Behavioural Assessment Scale (NBAS) has been used in many studies of assessment and intervention in newborn-infant and their families and respectively H.R. Prechtls' (1979) Qualitative Assessment of General Movements (GMs) in assessment studies, as a valid and reliable non-invasive procedure. However, the combination of their basic principles and guidelines has not been developed and tested in the context of ultra-early physiotherapy intervention in premature infants. The evaluation and strengthening of ultra-early physiotherapy intervention by combining basic principles of neonatal neuro-behavior (based on Brazelton T.) and motor behavior (based on Prechtl H.F.R.), in the context of individualized and developmental supportive care of premature neonates and infants and enhancing parental self-confidence. The research is based upon on three different researches: a) the cross-cultural adaptation of Karitane Parental Confidence Scale (KPCS) questionnaire. The sample will be parents of infants up to one year, b) the effect of ultra-early intervention on parental confidence of preterm infant parents. An experimental randomized controlled trial which will be conducted in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) until maternity hospital discharge. The sample will be premature infants and their parents and c) the effect of ultra-early intervention and parental confidence, on the development of premature infants up to the age of three months. An experimental randomized controlled trial which will be conducted in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) and upon their discharge from the maternity hospital up to the age of 3 months. The study sample will be premature infants and their parents. ;
