Filter by:Feeding problems such as selective eating, loss of appetite, and mealtime behavior problems are common in childhood. Parents play a primary role in learning about feeding, and difficulties experienced in this process may cause the parent to experience stress, despair and exhibit incorrect attitudes. The aim of this study is to examine the effect of online occupational therapy group training for mothers on mothers' attitudes and stress levels, and children's eating behaviors. Mothers of children aged 3-6 years with feeding problems (n=29) were randomly divided into groups. Early Childhood Adaptive Eating Behavior Scale, Feeding Process Mother Attitudes Scale and State-Trait Anxiety Inventory scales were used for evaluation. The mothers in the research group participated in the 4-week training. As a result of the research, positive effects were found on mothers' attitudes and children's eating behaviors (p<0.05). There was no change in mothers' state and trait anxiety levels (p>0.05). This study shows that online group training to mothers can support existing therapies and guides clinicians working in the field.
Background: Expressing breast milk in cases where breastfeeding is interrupted is important for infants to be fed breast milk however, many factors can affect mothers' breastfeeding experience, such as feeding attitudes and the level of social support. The aim of this study is to determine the relationship mothers' breast milk expression experience between infant feeding attitudes and perceived social support level. Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried out in the postpartum and lactation unit of a city hospital in Istanbul, between September-November 2022. The study included 455 women who were volunteering to participate in the research, 18 years of age or older, in the 0-6 months postpartum period, having a living baby, continuing to breastfeed, and expressing breast milk at least once after birth. Data were collected with Mother-Baby Introductory Information Form, Breast Milk Expression Experience Measure (BMEE), Iowa Infant Feeding Attitude Scale (IIFAS), and Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS). The data were analyzed using the SPSS-21 statistical software package. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Which characteristics affect mothers' breast milk expression experiences, infant feeding attitudes, and perceived social support levels in the early postpartum period? - Is there a relationship between mothers' experiences of breast milk expression and their infant feeding attitudes and social support levels in the early postpartum period?
The aim of this study is to determine the effects of faciliated tucking and reiki given manually during orogastric tube insertion in preterm infants treated in the NICU on stress, pain and physiological parameter (heartbeat, blood pressure, SpO2 and respiratory rate) levels.
The Nutri-Bébé 2022 survey is an observational cross-sectional study aiming to update food consumption, practices and nutrient intakes in children under 3 years of age in metropolitan France.
Suaahara's primary aim is to reduce the prevalence of stunting, wasting, and underweight among children under 5 years of age and to reduce the prevalence of anemia among women of reproductive age and children 6-59 months of age. For this, the program uses a multi-sectoral approach to achieve four key intermediate results: 1) improved household nutrition, sanitation, and health behaviors; 2) increased use of quality nutrition and health services by women and children; 3) improved access to diverse and nutrient-rich foods by women and children; and 4) accelerated roll-out of the Multi-Sectoral Nutrition Plan (MSNP) through strengthened local governance
This study extends follow up on of Native American (NA) mothers and their children (now age 3-5 years) enrolled in the 1:1 randomized controlled trial of the Family Spirit Nurture (FSN) intervention designed to prevent early childhood obesity (PECO 1). The investigators will examine whether positive FSN impacts on sugar sweetened beverage (SSB) consumption and healthy growth in the first year of life were sustained. The investigators will also examine the effects of the emergency COVID-19 water solutions on water insecurity, early childhood SSB consumption, and growth, and explore how COVID-19 affected child feeding patterns and weight status either through changes in maternal mental health or household food access.
Randomized controlled trial by conglomerates whose objective is to evaluate the effectiveness of an educational nutritional intervention, based on the Social Cognitive Theory, for the increase in the consumption of vegetables and fruits and the decrease in the consumption of ultra-processed foods in adolescent high school students, in the University of Guadalajara, in Guadalajara, Jalisco.
Background. Unprecedented rates of overweight and obesity are seen in childhood1 with evidence suggesting that infancy may be a critical period for the development of this high weight trajectory. This has led to a call for proposals for "understanding factors in infancy and early childhood (birth to 24 months) that influence obesity development (PA-18-032)." Objectives. The current study seeks to recruit a sample of mother-infant dyads to pilot a responsive parenting focused obesity prevention program delivered by behavior and development specialists in pediatric primary care. Methods. Approximately 80 mother-infant dyads will be recruited in pediatric primary care at their newborn visit and randomly assigned to one of two groups: a) Healthy Growth (new intervention) or b) Healthy Steps (as usual). We will obtain assessments of growth, feeding, and sleep throughout the study period for infants across five clinic visits and at-home measure completion. Research clinic visits will take place at their regularly scheduled well-child check visits at ages 1, 2, 4, and 6 mos and in-home measures will be completed monthly. The intervention program is hypothesized to show efficacy in both breast and formula fed infants as measured by the primary (i.e., BMI percentile and BMI z-score) and secondary outcomes (e.g., awareness of infant cues, use of alternative soothing strategies, when it is not time for a feeding).
Breastfeeding is the ideal feeding method and that in the absence of breastfeeding the bottle and cup feeding are common alternatives. There is a lack of evidence regarding superiority of either of these methods. This study aimed to evaluate bottle feeding and cup feeding in preterm infants on the outcomes of full breastfeeding and discharge time.
To examine the effects of sensorimotor interventions applied to in preterm infants on readiness for feeding and oral feeding success.
