NCT ID: NCT06120062 Completed - Infant, Newborn Clinical Trials

Effect of Swaddling and Inhaling Breast Milk Odour on the Pain and Comfort

Start date: October 1, 2020
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This randomized controlled experimental study was conducted to determine the effect of swaddling and inhaling mother's breast milk odour on the pain and comfort during the placement of peripheral intravenous catheter in term infants.The population of the study consisted of term infants hospitalized in the neonatal intensive care unit of Karadeniz Ereğli State Hospital between 1st October 2020 and 1st October 2021. According to the G-Power analysis, the sample size was calculated as 120 and term infants were equally assigned to three experimental groups and a control group, each of which consisted of 30 infants. During the placement of peripheral intravenous catheter, the infants in the 1st experimental group were swaddled, the infants in the 2ndexperimentalgroup were made to inhale the mother's breast milk odour, the infants in the 3rd experimental group were both swaddled and made to inhale the mother's breast milk odour and no procedure was applied to the infants in the control group. The pain and comfort levels of infants in the experimental and control groups were assessed before, during and after the placement of peripheral intravenous catheter. "Infant Descriptive Information Form", "Neonatal Infant Pain Scale (NIPS)" and "Neonatal Comfort Behaviour Scale (NCBS) were used to collect data.

NCT ID: NCT05325749 Recruiting - Infant, Newborn Clinical Trials

Whole Exome Screening of Newborns

Start date: July 10, 2021
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The aim of the study is to obtain the initial experience of the inclusive genetic screening of newborn. Two groups of newborns born in RCOGP will be enlisted to the study: 1. newborns without developmental features having no variations according to an inherited diseases screening; 2. newborns showing either phenotypic features or deviations according to MS screening. The residual volume of the cord blood of all newborns form both groups will be collected and subjected to the whole exome sequencing. The sequencing data will be analyzed in "screening" mode for the first group while for the second group analysis will be performed taking the respective phenotype into account. The study is planned to cover 7000 newborns in total.

NCT ID: NCT05295147 Completed - Infant, Newborn Clinical Trials

Physiological Parameters and Crying Time in the Newborn Bath

Start date: December 1, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Bathing is essential for maintaining and improving the health of the newborn. It has numerous beneficial effects, such as cleaning and protecting the skin, preventing infections, cleaning unwanted substances, regulating blood circulation and the respiratory system, regulating body temperature, relieving pain, providing comfort, and supporting the parent-infant bond. Although bathing has many benefits, it is a stressful experience for newborn babies. Research on the effects of bathing on babies has shown that babies experience behavioral difficulties during bathing, such as crying, restlessness, hiccups, yawning, tremors, body looseness, looseness of the extremities, facial looseness, opening of fingers, and grimacing. Bathing may also lead to some physiological responses, such as hypothermia, hypoxia, dyspnea, cyanosis, desaturation, and tachycardia.Therefore, this study aimed to determine the effect of palmar grasp reflex stimulation during neonatal bath on the physiological parameters and crying time of the newborn.

NCT ID: NCT05051267 Completed - Infant, Newborn Clinical Trials

Evaluation of the Effectiveness of Non-pharmacological Methods During Heel Blood Collection

Start date: March 15, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Although various pharmacological methods have been used for heel puncture, their effectiveness has not been demonstrated. However, their use is limited due to their sedating effects, toxic effects, and respiratory depressant properties. In this sense, the use of non-pharmacological methods has been examined. Non-pharmacological methods have no side effects, are cheap, and are easily available/applicable. For these reasons, the fact that non-pharmacological methods (appropriate positioning, mother's lap, mother's voice, white noise, oral sucrose, classical music) have been frequently used in recent years, especially during painful interventions. Based on this information, the study was planned as a randomized controlled experimental study to compare the effects of holding the baby in the mother's arms, hearing white noise and mother's voice, or using them in combination during heel blood collection from healthy newborns.

NCT ID: NCT05023694 Completed - Infant, Newborn Clinical Trials

Risk Related Assistance During Stabilization In Newborns At Birth

Start date: February 2016
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Approximately 10% of term infants and up to 50% of preterm infants less than 32 weeks require stabilization and / or ventilatory support at the time of transition at birth. Coordination between the rescuer team as well as the precise knowledge of protocol resuscitation maneuvers and indications, the communication of the various professionals involved (gynecologists, pediatricians and anesthesiologists) are critical for proper care and patient stabilization. Common adverse events may hinder or impair the effectiveness of these maneuvers, ventilation, monitoring, ... with consequent worsening in the prognosis of the newborn.

NCT ID: NCT05001334 Recruiting - Weight Loss Clinical Trials

Effect of Kangaroo Care on Phyiological Weight Loss in Term Newborns

Start date: September 1, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of kangaroo care on physiological weight loss in term newborns.

NCT ID: NCT04994652 Completed - Infant, Newborn Clinical Trials

Video- Or Direct Laryngoscopy for Endotracheal Intubation in Newborns

VODE
Start date: September 4, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Endotracheal intubation is a critical intervention for newborn babies. Laryngoscopy is the crucial part of endotracheal intubation. Traditionally, operators use a standard laryngoscope to view the larynx by looking directly into the mouth (direct laryngoscopy). More recently videolaryngoscopes that have a video camera mounted at the tip of the laryngoscope blade have been developed, Rather than look directly into the mouth, the operator looks at a screen that displays the view acquired by the camera (indirect laryngoscopy). Videolaryngoscopes have been demonstrated to be useful for teaching trainees direct laryngoscopy. However, it may be that all clinicians are more successful with a videolaryngoscope. The investigators will compare whether clinicians who are randomly assigned to intubate newborn infants using a videolaryngoscope are more successful in intubating newborn infants at the first attempt compared to clinicians who are randomly assigned to intubate newborn infants using a standard laryngoscope.

NCT ID: NCT04989673 Completed - Fever Clinical Trials

Materno-fetal Consequences of Symptomatic Dengue in Pregnant Wowen in French Guiana

CMFdeng
Start date: July 11, 2012
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Symptomatic dengue virus infection in pregnant women could affect the mother, fetus and the newborn at birth. The risks of postpartum hemorrhage, prematurity and low birth weight are increased in dengue fever. Cases of vertical transmission have been described. This study therefore proposes to quantify these risks in a pregnant woman presenting a clinical picture of dengue fever through a prospective, longitudinal and comparative study.

NCT ID: NCT04883944 Completed - Infant, Newborn Clinical Trials

Maternal Involvement in Pain Management in NICU

Start date: May 17, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Infants admitted to Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) may experience a negative impact due to multiple painful and stressful procedures during their hospitalization. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that healthcare facilities taking care of newborns should implement pain prevention and management programs. There are some non-pharmacological techniques that have been developed to reduce newborn's pain perception, including swaddling, holding, non-nutritive sucking in infants with Post-menstrual age (PMA) below 32 weeks, nutritional sucking with the administration of breast milk or sweeteners above 32 weeks PMA and exposure to maternal voice. Even for parents, the experience of NICU hospitalization of their child is a particularly stressful event, mainly characterized by feelings of exclusion due to lack of interactions with their own baby due to their clinical conditions. Hence, it is very important to intervene as soon as possible on parental stress that can affect the physical and psychological quality of life of the family. This is possible through the application of nursing care plans that involve the parents in daily care and support them in the long process of development and acquisition of autonomy and skills. The nurse is a healthcare provider who has the most frequent contact with newborns hospitalized in NICU and has a key role in preventing, recognizing, and managing newborn's pain. However, there is a considerable discrepancy between the theory and practice: many nurses and doctors are aware that most of the procedures carried out in NICU cause pain. Therefore, nurses also can develop high levels of physical and psychological stress, particularly when they manage a newborn who feels pain. The purpose of this study is to evaluate if maternal involvement in the pain management of newborn admitted to NICU may reduce the level of pain perceived by infant during the heel stick procedure using the Premature Infant Pain Profile (PIPP) pain scoring tool. In addition, the study's secondary goal will be to investigate if maternal involvement in pain management of newborn may produce positive effects on the mother in reducing stress, depression and anxiety and in reducing nurses' physical and psychological stress.
