Filter by:Since March 2022, there are an outbreak of SARS-CoV-2 infection (Omicron) in Shanghai. This cohort study aims to analysis the clinical outcomes of neonates born to mothers with SARS-CoV-2 infection.
Objective: To investigate the effect of FCR as part of the FICare principles during hospital stay, on parental stress at discharge in parents of preterm or ill infants admitted to the neonatal ward for >7 days as compared to standard medical rounds (SMR) without parents as part of standard neonatal care (SNC).
This study seeks to identify and test host RNA expression profiles in context to protein biomarkers in dried blood spot samples as novel diagnostic markers of neonatal herpes simplex virus infection and to improve the understanding of the pathogenesis of the disease.
To assess the effectiveness of Chlamydia trachomatis (CT) and Neisseria gonorrhoeae (NG) testing and treatment during pregnancy to reduce adverse pregnancy and birth outcomes compared to the standard of care (treatment based on symptoms and signs).
The goal of this study is to figure out the best doses for two oral antibiotics (called amoxicillin and cephalexin) when they are used to treat infections in newborns and young infants. In order to do this, the study plans to enroll two groups of young infants who are admitted to the Children's Hospital Colorado. In the first group, infants already receiving one of these two antibiotics will be enrolled. Over a few days in the hospital, up to 5 blood samples will be collected from each infant to measure how much of the drug is in their body at different points in time after a dose. In the second group, infants who are already receiving an IV antibiotic and who are eating normally or receiving oral medications will be enrolled. These infants will receive one dose by mouth of either amoxicillin or cephalexin, in addition to the IV antibiotic already being used to treat their infection. After the oral antibiotic dose,blood will be drawn every few hours to measure how much of the drug is still in their body. Blood levels of the antibiotics will be used to calculate how much and how often both antibiotics would need to be given to treat a variety of infections that are common in infants. The study will calculate if using a single blood level can predict whether or not an infant might be at risk of the antibiotic not working well enough for them.
The goal of this study is to describe the antibiotic use in a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) in Germany that is practising integrative medicine. The investigators will review hospital records to find out how often and how long antibiotics were given to newborns; compare antibiotic use to other NICU in the same area; describe how sick infected newborns were (comparing those treated with or without antibiotics); and describe which anthroposophic medicines were used, how often and if there were safety problems.
A case-control trial was conducted to test the early postpartum period clinical outcomes of newborns born to pregnant women with and without COVID-19.
This is a prospective observational pilot study investigating if peripheral fractional tissue oxygen extraction (pFTOE) measured by five short near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) (re-)applications within the first 6 hours after birth in neonates with respiratory distress differs in neonates with early onset infection and neonate without infection
Pregnant women are a vulnerable and high-risk population, as COVID-19 is associated with an increased risk preterm birth, cesarean section, and maternal critical care. This study will examine the factors that impede testing for SARS-CoV-2 (the causative virus among pregnant women), help determine optimal testing strategies by evaluating the necessity of testing for asymptomatic disease in pregnancy, inform prenatal care plans by assessing the full impact of infection, and contribute to a provider's ability to counsel women and create prenatal care plans if they are pregnant or considering pregnancy.
This national study will recruit expectant mothers with and without positive nasopharyngeal swabs for SARS-CoV-2, and aims to determine the seroepidemiology of SARS-CoV-2 amongst expectant mothers and their infants in the U.K.
