Filter by:The study aimed to investigate the effect of attachment training given to pregnant women on mother-infant attachment.Primiparous pregnant women between 28.-38. weeks were randomized into two groups. Pregnant women in the study group were given attachment training for 15 days and the effect of the training on mother-infant attachment was investigated by using the mother-infant attachment scale at postpartum week 8 in comparison with the control group.
Within the scope of the study, it was planned that risky babies would be treated with the SAFE early intervention approach for 10 weeks after they were discharged from the intensive care unit. Neurodevelopmental Treatment was applied to the control group. Sensory, motor and language development of the babies were evaluated before and after the intervention.
Purpose: This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of singing a lullaby with compassionate touch on early comfort and later on development of developmental support program in premature infants in the neonatal intensive care unit. H01: Singing a lullaby along with touching in the early stages of premature babies in the neonatal intensive care unit has no effect on the comfort score of the babies. H02: Singing a lullaby along with touching to premature babies in the neonatal intensive care unit in the early period and then applying a developmental support program has no effect on the social emotional skills of premature babies. H03: Singing lullabies with touch to premature babies in the neonatal intensive care unit in the early period and then applying a developmental support program has no effect on the language skills of premature babies. H04: Singing a lullaby along with touching to premature babies in the neonatal intensive care unit in the early period and then applying a developmental support program has no effect on the cognitive skills of premature babies. H05: Singing a lullaby along with touching to premature babies in the neonatal intensive care unit in the early period and then applying a developmental support program has no effect on the motor skills of premature babies.
The study will be conducted at various city swimming pools in Warsaw. The study participants will include 20 infants participating in aquatic baby classes once a week and 20 infants not participating in any classes and their parents. The study will be conducted in a quiet and calm room, which will be prepared in advance and equipped with a smooth mat, a lounger and infant toys. The estimated time to conduct the study is about 30 minutes. The examination will be carried out twice: before the start of the two-month course and after its completion. Each time in the presence of a parent or legal guardian, after signing a consent form for the study. The selected methods of assessing motor development are fully non-invasive and consist of the following tests: 1. Alberta Infant Motor Scale (AIMS)-a test involving observation of motor development, in which each activity is assessed as existing or not. The sum of the scores from all trials is then placed on a centile grid, the results of which will indicate how many children of a certain age are achieving a given level of motor skills. 2. Early Motor Development Questionnaire (EMQ)-will be conducted on the basis of a ready-made form and in an anonymous manner based on parents' current knowledge of their children's development.
The objective of this work was the characterization of the probiotic potential of Bifidobacterium breve PS1, a strain originally isolated from human milk. Subsequently, its safety and tolerance were evaluated in a trial including healthy, formula-fed 3-months-old infants. A total of 187 infants were randomized into two groups: probiotic group (PG) and control group (CG). Both groups received the same infant formula but, in the case of the PG, it was supplemented with the strain. A total of 160 infants (80 per group) completed the three months of intervention.
Although the scales used so far provide information about the neuromotor progression of a single baby, it is thought that they are not sufficient to distinguish babies from each other, and it is thought that there is no assessment battery that will adapt to the knowledge in their conditions and the functional development of babies. Therefore, the aim of our study is to reveal the applicability and psychometric properties of the Neonatal Infant Motor Assessment Scale (NIMAS) test, which reveals the neurological and motor performance of infants hospitalized in the NICU, both as automatic responses and functional behavior.
The goal of this [type of study: clinical trial] is to compare compare the nutrition, development, obesity risk and anemia risk of the infant with the BLW method and TCF method given to the mothers of infants who have switched to complementary feeding. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Does the training on the GTB and BLW method given in accordance with the developmental age of the baby in months have an effect on the feeding and development of the babies in both groups? - Does the training on the GTB and BLW method given in accordance with the developmental age of the baby in months have an effect on the obesity risk and anemia risk of babies in both groups? Participants will participate in each session of the complementary nutrition trainings given in accordance with their age on a monthly basis and will provide a diet suitable for the trainings. Researchers will compare the nutritional parameters, developmental levels, and height and weight gains of infants fed with the BLW and TCF method to see the effect of complementary feeding education on the nutrition and development of infants and whether there is anemia and obesity risk.
The current study aimed to translate and validate Urdu version of that module from PedsQL, to measure the "quality of life" outcomes for Pakistan and Urdu speaking people.
Depression and anxiety symptoms are common during pregnancy which may disturb the intrauterine environment by affecting the mother's physiological responses to stress, and ultimately impair fetal and postnatal development. There is increasing evidence about the effects of maternal distress on young brain tissue leading to some structural changes. The neurological footprints of these structural changes on the young brain may be caught early in life by a video assessment of General Movements (GMs) quality.
The research is a randomized controlled experimental study. The study includes primiparous mothers hospitalized in the Obstetrics and Gynecology Service of Recep Tayyip Erdogan University Training and Research Hospital between 01/12/2022-01/10/2023. The population of the study will be composed of primiparous mothers hospitalized in the Obstetrics and Gynecology Service of Recep Tayyip Erdoğan University Training and Research Hospital between 01/12/2022 and 01/10/2023. All mothers who were hospitalized in the gynecology service during the data collection period and met the inclusion criteria will be included in the study and sample selection will not be made. "Mother and Baby Descriptive Information Form", "Maternal Attachment Scale", "Postpartum Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale-Short Form", "Semantic Difference Scale-Me as Mother" and "Sleep and Crying Diary" will be used to collect research data. Developing the 5S application, which is a baby calming technique, as an educational material in the research. A training booklet will be prepared and used by making use of the training materials that Harvey Karp shared with the researchers.
