Study Title The SSSH Study: SNOO Smart Sleeper Use in Post-Operative Infants with Congenital Heart Disease is a single site, cross-sectional, feasibility study of an infant smart sleeper. The Primary Objective is to evaluate the feasibility of collecting and integrating clinical data and SNOO data. The secondary Objective(s) is To assess the feasibility of conducting a future broader trial by evaluating the parents willingness to give parental permission for participation in the use of the SNOO. Research Intervention(s)/ Investigational Agent(s) SNOO Smart Sleeper from Happiest Baby, Inc.There are approximately 300 new infants per year who undergo cardiac surgery at Children's Mercy Kansas City (CMKC) who are 6 months of age and 11kg or less at the time of surgery Sample Size. A maximum of 15 patients will be enrolled for this feasibility study over the study Duration for Individual Participant Length of hospitalization on 4Sutherland, average length of stay for this patient population is 30 days.
Infants' frequency-following response (FFR) to a nonnative lexical tone, reflecting early sensory encoding of speech in the auditory system will be evaluated pre- and post- music intervention at 7 mo and 11 mo of age. The lab-controlled music intervention starts at 9 mo of age and consists of 12 sessions of social and multimodel musical activities with the aim to synchronize infants' movements with musical beats.
The purpose of this study is to determine the glucose response of complementary feeding regimens consisting of two different follow-up formulas (FUFs) and infant cereals (ICs).
This study will assess the efficacy of the modified Attachment and Biobehavioral Catch-Up (mABC) Intervention, adapted for use with peripartum mothers receiving medication-assisted treatment for opioid use disorder. The investigators expect that mothers who receive the modified Attachment and Biobehavioral Catch-up Intervention will show more nurturing and sensitive parenting and more adaptive physiological regulation than parents who receive a control intervention. The investigators expect that infants whose mothers receive the modified Attachment and Biobehavioral Catch-up will show better outcomes in attachment, behavior, and physiological regulation than infants of parents who receive the control intervention.
Breastmilk is considered optimal for infant growth and development. However, evidence suggests that breastmilk composition can vary according to maternal nutritional status. Among women in Pakistan, there is a high burden of undernutrition and micronutrient deficiencies. As well, the prevalence of early stunting among Pakistani infants is high. Using a hypothesized pathway model, this study will assess pathways between maternal nutritional status, breastmilk composition, and infant linear growth. This is a substudy to the Matiari emPowerment and Preconception Supplementation (MaPPS) Trial (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT03287882).
In Pakistan, breastfeeding is widely practiced. National data suggests that 94% of infants <2 years of age receive breastmilk at some point. However, the introduction of complementary foods often occurs early. At 3 months of age, it is suggested that only 54% of Pakistani infants are exclusively breastfed. This declines with each month of age. Because the production and release of breastmilk is influenced by the frequency and intensity of suckling, early initiation of complementary feeding can reduce breastmilk output. Given that complementary foods are introduced early within Pakistan, we hypothesize that breastmilk composition will change between 1 and 3 months postpartum among those mother-infant pairs if nutritive complementary foods are introduced early (i.e., before 6 months). In this study, we aim to better understand how breastmilk composition changes over time among infants recruited at 1 month of age who are exclusively breastfed or receive only non-nutritive feeds. This is a substudy to the Matiari emPowerment and Preconception Supplementation (MaPPS) Trial (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT03287882).
Purpose: To investigate the growth and development status for children of 1 ~ 3 years old in China, and to explore and analyze the influencing factors of infant growth. Mother's health status would also be investigated simultaneously. Methods and analysis: This is a multicenter prospective cohort study. Participants were all from the Chinese Pregnant Women Cohort Study (CPWCS), which is a multicenter prospective cohort study we conducted before. In simple terms, pregnant women during the first trimester (5~13 weeks' gestational age) were included from 25 July 2017 to 26 November 2018. Related information were collected by electronic self-administered questionnaire, including general information, environmental exposure assessment, physical activity assessment, dietary and nutritional assessment, depression assessment, sleep quality assessment and economic burden assessment. Subsequently, objective medical information, obstetric and neonatal outcomes were collected through hospital information system (HIS). To further assess the mothers' and infants' health status, a new multicenter prospective cohort study, including more than 1000 participants of the CPWCS from 5 hospitals of 5 different provinces in China, will be conducted. Through the electronic self-administered questionnaire surveys and laboratory testing methods, information about infants' feeding, sleeping, defecating, oral health, early development and common allergic diseases will be collected. And we will also assess mothers' current health habits and status, such as sleeping, diet, anxiety, physical activity, and oral health. SAS statistical software will be used for data analysis. Ethics and Dissemination Permission for the study was obtained from Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College. Ethics approval was obtained from the Ethics Review Committee of Department of Scientific Research, School of Basic Medicine, Peking Union Medical College, Beijing, China. The results will be published in peer-reviewed journals or disseminated through conference presentations.
This study will is a parallel two-group randomized controlled trial that will use the MiniMed 670G hybrid closed-loop system's continuous glucose monitor (GCM) insulin pump and computer algorithm to deliver insulin when in "auto mode". This study will be conducted in women with type 1 diabetes after delivery of their neonate to see if "auto-mode" improves blood sugar control, episodes of low blood sugar, burden of diabetes self-care, alters baby's weight and feeding patterns, and partner diabetes distress.
Purpose: It is the examination of the Infant Movement Motivation Questionnaire of the validity and reliability of Turkish. Pretest: Participants were informed about the aims of the study and fill in a consent form. They filled in a paper version of the Turkish translation of the Infant Movement Motivation Questionnaire. The parents had to answer questions about the content and meaning of the IMMQ items and sociodemographic. Validation Study: Participants were informed about the aims of the study and filled in a consent form. The questionnaires of the survey filled in at the early intervention center. About 30 minutes were needed to answer the 27 questions of the IMMQ, Ages and Stages Questionnaire, and sociodemographic.
