Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine the amount of linaclotide and its active metabolite (MM-419447) excreted in breast milk after multiple, once daily doses of linaclotide (72 μg, 145 μg, or 290 μg) in lactating women receiving the drug therapeutically.
The investigators will conduct a telephone-based support to breastfeeding women with healthy newborns to improve breastfeeding outcomes.
We are proposing to conduct a randomized, controlled trial of newborns in the maternal infant care areas at Tampa General Hospital. Participants who are determined eligible for the study (classified to have ankyloglossia via the HATLFF and either a Class III or IV maxillary labial frenum) will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: Group A or Group B. Group A will receive a sham procedure for intervention #1 and a lingual frenotomy procedure for intervention #2. Group B will receive a lingual frenotomy procedure for intervention #1 and a sham procedure for intervention #2. Newborns that continue to have difficulty with breastfeeding after both interventions will undergo intervention #3, a labial frenotomy, and breastfeeding will be monitored afterwards.
An antenatal education intervention in primiparous women improves breastfeeding duration and reduces post-natal complications.
Breast feeding is believed to be beneficial to long-term health but how these effects are mediated is unknown. I suggest that this may be through effects on body composition and metabolism. I will compare adipose tissue and liver fat deposition in healthy, full term breast and formula fed infants babies shortly after birth and around 12 weeks.
The goal of the study is to be a current examination of infant and toddler feeding practices among families receiving WIC services. It has been more than 10 years since the last study of such feeding practices, and in the interim important changes have taken place in the WIC program, in society, and in the science of nutrition. The study will include exploration of breastfeeding practices and support, more general feeding practices, nutritional intake of infants and toddlers, transitions in infant and toddler feeding practices, early precursors of obesity, and family factors that may influence all of these nutrition-related issues. It will also explore characteristics of the WIC program in selected sites, and how these relate to infant and toddler feeding decisions and practices. This study is important both to update knowledge about the WIC population, and to uncover possible new avenues of inquiry regarding early childhood obesity. Update on November 25, 2020: The WIC ITFPS-2 will now follow participants through child age 9 years. This unprecedented opportunity will provide FNS with a better understanding of the impact of WIC participation on health and nutrition outcomes in childhood.
To evaluate the benefits of a lactation support intervention, in conjunction with maternal nutritional supplementation.
The authors hypothesize that adjusted individual feeding (AIF) for preterm infant starting from transition to oral feeding (33 weeks corrected age) will result in less episodes of apnea/bradycardia, early achievement of full oral feeding, improved weight gain and shorten hospitalization duration in the short term. In the long term AIF will result in higher scores on the Griffith's developmental scales, decreasing parental anxiety and feeding disorders .
The purpose of this randomized controlled trial is to examine whether evidence-based home visiting programs enhanced by doula services have effects on positive parenting practices, breastfeeding, and child and maternal health outcomes.
The purpose of this study is to determine wether wound infiltration brings additional analgesia effect after cesarean section with optimal standard postoperative analgesia
