Filter by:Well-child care is the primary source of preventative health care for children. These visits provide an opportunity for physicians to assess an infant's biomedical health, development, and behavior, as well as help ensure timely immunizations, reduce the use of acute care services, and assess and family functioning. Yet, disparities in the utilization of pediatric care exist by race, ethnicity and income in the U.S., even despite high rates of overall access to primary care. Incentives have been proposed as one way to increase utilization of preventative care for mothers and children. Diapering is another important form of preventative health care that can be particularly difficult for low-income parents due the cost of diapers, which is $70-80 per child per month, or approximately $960 per year, on average. And government programs, such as Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC), Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), and Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), either cannot be used to purchase diapers, or do not provide enough assistance to cover the cost of diapers and other basic needs. A family's inability to provide an adequate supply of diapers for their child is called diaper need. Nationwide, one in three families with young children report experiencing diaper need, which was found to be significantly associated with maternal stress and depression, which in turn, can have a detrimental impact on a family's health and economic success. The primary goal of this study is to conduct a randomized controlled trial of a diaper provision intervention designed to increase utilization of, and adherence to, well-child visits and reduce diaper need among low-resourced families in New Haven, CT.
In clinical practice, there are a large number of patients hospitalized with Incontinence-Associated Dermatitis. Studies are needed to determine the effectiveness of products available for disease prevention. It is believed that the use of the non-irritant barrier film is superior to the use of zinc oxide in the prevention of Incontinence-Associated Dermatitis. The objective of this study is to compare the effect of the use of zinc oxide ointment with the use of non-irritant barrier film in the prevention of diaper dermatitis in incontinent patients admitted to medical clinic units.
This is a prospective, pilot study to explore the relationship between an infant's nutrition, skin and stool composition at different ages.
This study aims to identify patient characteristics associated with the development of Incontinence-Associated Dermatitis (IAD) category 2 (skin erosion due to incontinence). 380 ICU patients suffering of fecal incontinence will be included in the study. Data on 19 possible risk factors will be collected at one point in time by the research team. Different sources and methods will be used to collect patient data: skin assessment, patient record, direct patient observation, routine blood samples.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the microbiome composition of infant's (9-12 month) skin experiencing diaper rash in order to determine if the onset and severity of erythema associated with diaper rash is influenced by the type of bacteria colonizing the skin.
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of Calmoseptine Ointment and Desitin Maximum Strength 40% Zinc Oxide Diaper Rash Paste in the treatment of diaper dermatitis among Neonates and Infants.
The primary objective of this study is to collect feces from premature infants over a five weeks period to characterize its composition. Metabolomics, Proteomics, Genomics and Microbiome analyses and cell-based assays will be performed to identify individual components present in feces, which may contribute to the onset of irritation in the diapered area of premature infants.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether repeated use of 0.25% miconazole nitrate ointment in newborns and infants with a yeast infection in the diaper area causes the yeast to become resistant to the drug.
To evaluate whether Desitin; Zinc Oxide Diaper Rash Ointment (Desitin Original) and Desitin Creamy; Zinc Oxide Diaper Rash Ointment (Desitin Creamy) provide relief of the signs and symptoms associated with diaper rash after 12 and 24 hours of product application.
