Abstract:
Objectives: To evaluate the birth weight in infants born to diabetic mothersand to compare it with those born to nondiabetic mothers. Study Design: Descriptive crosssectional study. Setting: Gynae and obstetrics unit Hayatabad Medical Complex Peshawar inassociation with Anatomy Department Khyber Girls Medical College Peshawar. Period: January2015 to June 2015. Material and Methods: This study was carried out on babies born todiabetic as well as non-diabetic healthy mothers. A total number of 100 diabetic mothers and100 nondiabetic healthy mothers were selected for this study. After delivery, the weight andsex of the babies born to diabetic as well as nondiabetic mothers along with the motherfs agewere noted on an observation sheet. The studentfs t test was applied for all quantitative data.A p-value of . 0.05 was taken significant. Results: The mean birth weight of female babiesborn to diabetic mothers was significantly greater than babies of nondiabetic mothers (p=0.05). No significant difference (p=0.11) was noted when the birth weight of all babies bornto diabetic mothers was compared to all babies born to nondiabetic mothers. No significantdifference (p= 0.51) was noted in babies belonging to younger nondiabetic and diabeticmothers but a significant difference (p=0.01) was noted when birth weight of babies from oldernondiabetic mothers was compared with birth weight of babies from older diabetic mothers.Conclusion: The birth weight of female babies born to diabetic mothers was significantly moreas compared to babies born to nondiabetic mothers. A significant difference was also notedwhen birth weight of babies from older diabetic mothers was compared with the babies of oldernondiabetic mothers. This larger weight of babies may be due to maternal diabetes which mayaffect the normal development of fetus leading to an increased morbidity and mortality in babiesas well as mothers.

Objective: To determine the spectrum of problems in LBW neonates at Secondary care level and their immediate outcome.Design: Descriptive Study. Place & Duration of Study: Agha Khan Hospital for Women and Children, Kareemabad and Agha KhanHospital for Women and Children , Kharadar, from January 2009 till December 2009. Results & Conclusions: Of the 4500 babies born inAgha Khan secondary hospitals, 429 were Low Birth Weight and 191 were admitted to the nursery. The ratio of males to females was0.86:1.0 (199 males and 230 females). Approximately 41% of the babies were less than 2 kgs and Preterm babies made up 20.9 % oftotal low birth weight. Of the 191 babies, 99 (51.8%) had hyperbilirubinemia ; 16(8.3%) had respiratory distress syndrome of thenewborn; 16(8.3%) had vomiting and they were observed for necrotizing enterocolitis; 21(10.9%) had presumed sepsis; 12 (6.2%) hadhypocalcemia; 11(5.7%) had hypoglycemia 08 (4.1%) had Meconium Aspiration Syndrome;; 05 (2.4%) had thrombocytopenia; and 02(1.04%) had hyperviscosity with hematocrit of more than 65%. Common causes of morbidity in LBW babies are jaundice, sepsis,Respiratory distress, hypoglycemia and hypothermia. Introduction of standard management guidelines aid in reduction of morbidity. Withcareful selection of cases and predetermined criteria for transfer to the tertiary level nursery, it is possible to care for a vast majority of thenewborns in nurseries at secondary level .

Abstract:
The aim of the study was to define an intrauterine growth curve for a population of Nigerian newborn babies. A cross-sectional observational study design was adopted. Weight, length and head circumference were all measured in consecutive singleton deliveries at the University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital over a 3-year period. Gestational age (GA) of the babies was estimated from the last menstrual period or first trimester ultrasound. The estimates obtained were clinically validated using the Ballard score. Mean birth weights and percentiles of the weight, length and head circumferences for the respective GA were estimated using the SPSS 15 software package. A total of 5273 babies were recruited for the study with GA ranging from 25-44 weeks. Comparison of the mean birth weights of the various GA with the data from Denver, Colorado, showed that Nigerian babes tended to weigh less at the early GA, although these differences were not statistically significant. Between 26-36 weeks, the average weights of both sexes were similar; however, beyond this time point there was a consistent increase in the average weight of the males over the female babies. Growth curves for Nigerian newborn babies were generated and showed that the mean birth weight of Nigerian preterm babies was lighter than that of babies in Colorado. The impact of these differences on the classification of newborns will require further evaluation.

Abstract:
Introduction: Sexual antagonism is seen particularly where maternally and paternally derived alleles battle over fetal growth, which may result in sex differences regarding birth weight of babies. We examined the association between sex and birth weight of babies in the University of Maiduguri Teaching Hospital. Materials and Methods: One hundred babies selected by systematic random sampling had their birth weights determined using bassinet weighing scale. Likelihood ratio chi-square test of association was used to investigate the relationship between sex and birth weight. Results: A total of 100 babies participated in this study. There were 53 (53.0 %) males and 47 (47.0 %) females giving a male to female ratio of 1.1:1. Majority of the babies 82 (82.0 %) had normal birth weight (2500 – 3900 g). The mean (SD) birth weight for male and female babies were 313 (62), 95 CI (296 – 330 g), and 290 (055), 95 CI (275 – 307 g) respectively. The overall mean (SD) birth weight of the babies was 302 (0.59), 95 CI (291 – 314 g). Association between birth weight and sex of the babies was found to be significant (χ2 = 9.317, p = 0.025). Conclusion: Birth weight was significantly associated with sex: males had higher birth weights than females. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/jnps.v33i1.7090 J Nepal Paediatr Soc. 2013;33(1):21-24.

Abstract:
In England and Wales the number of liveborn low birthweight babies (less than 2500 gm) progressively rose by 16% between 1981 and 1986. One factor, but not the only one, contributing towards the increased number of live births of extremely small babies is a more vigorous policy towards resuscitation at birth of babies who, before the era of intensive care might have been classed as miscarriages or abortions, even though they showed signs of life at birth.

Abstract:
The incidence of Low Birth Weight (LBW) babies born in the Uitenhage Provincial Hospital would seem to be a cause of concern from a public health of view. The incidence of 21% recorded during 1999 is markedly higher than the 7% recorded in the United States of America in 1998 and the average of 17% noted for developing countries. Some health concerns related to LBW babies are Sudden Infant Death Syndrome, scholastic performances later in life, and several chronic diseases in adults associated with them having been born as LBW babies.

AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: AGTERGROND Dit is bekend dat vroeggebore babas met ʼn baie lae geboortemassa ʼn hoër insidensie van ontwikkelings-, gedrags- en mediese agterstande en verskeie leerprobleme toon teen die tyd dat hulle skoolgaande ouderdom bereik. Kommer bestaan ook oor die omgewingseffek van die neonatale intensiewe sorgeenheid op die sensoriese ontwikkeling van die vroeggebore baba en hoe dit tot bogenoemde agterstande kan bydra. Daar is verskillende benaderings wat daarop aanspraak maak dat hulle die probleem kan oplos, met kangaroemoedersorg (‘kangaroo mother care’) en ontwikkelingsorg (‘developmental care’) wat in die literatuur uitgesonder is as besonders belowend. Met die aanvang van hierdie studie was daar nog geen empiriese studies in die literatuur gerapporteer wat enige aansprake van hierdie benaderings bevestig het nie. Daar was dus ʼn behoefte vir ʼn empiries-nagevorsde program wat prakties in die neonatale intensiewe eenheid toegepas kon word met die oog op die vermindering van omgewingstressors ten opsigte van die vroeggebore baba se sensoriese sisteme. DOEL Die doel met die studie was om die invloed te bepaal van ʼn Sensoriese Ontwikkelingsorgprogram (‘Sensory Developmental Care Programme’), wat ʼn spesifieke kangaroemoedersorg- protokol insluit, op die sensoriese ontwikkeling van die vroeggebore baba met 'ʼn baie lae geboortemassa tot en met die ouderdom van 18 maande (gekorrigeerde ouderdom). METODOLOGIE ʼn Ewekansig-gekontroleerde studie is uitgevoer. Die studiesteekproef het bestaan uit 89 vroeggebore babas met ʼn baie lae geboortemassa wat in ʼn periode van 24 maande toegelaat is tot die neonatale eenheid van Tygerberg Hospitaal in Kaapstad, Suid-Afrika. Die babas is gewerf op grond van sekere kriteria en is dan daarna ewekansig aan een van twee groepe toegeken: 1) die intervensiegroep het sorg ontvang volgens die Sensoriese Ontwikkelingsorgprogram vir 10 dae; en 2) die kontrolegroep het ook vir 10 dae die standaardsorg van die eenheid ontvang. Die intervensiegroep het uit 45 babas bestaan, van wie 22 die studie voltooi het, terwyl die kontrolegroep uit 44 babas bestaan het van wie 20 die studie voltooi het. Beide studiegroepe is opgevolg op 6, 12 en 18 maande (gekorrigeerde ouderdom), by welke geleentheid die Sensoriese Funksietoets vir Babas (‘Test of Sensory Functions in Infants’) telkens toegepas is vir die assessering van sensoriese ontwikkeling. Op 18 maande (gekorrigeerde ouderdom) is ʼn assessering met die Griffiths Ontwikkelingskaal ook gedoen om funksies in die ander ontwikkelingsareas van die babas te bepaal. Toetsresultate is geanaliseer met behulp van herhaalde ANOVAmetings en die Bonferoni t-prosedure om die effek van die Sensoriese Ontwikkelingsorgprogram op die sensoriese ontwikkeling van die babas tot en met 18 maande (gekorrigeerde ouderdom) te bepaal. RESULTATE Die resultate van die vergelyking van die prestasie van beide groepe (groep-effek), gemeet met behulp van die Sensoriese Funksietoets vir Babas, is van groot belang vir hierdie studie. Die intervensiegroep het betekenisvol verskil op die totale telling (p<0.00), sowel as op die volgende vier van die vyf subtoets-tellings: respons op diepdruk (‘tactile deep pressure’) (p<0.03); motoriese aanpassingsreaksies (p<0.03); visuele tas-integrasie (p<0.00); en respons op vestibulêre stimulasie (p<0.01). GEVOLGTREKKING Die resultate van die studie dui aan dat die babas in die intervensiegroep baat gevind het by die Sensoriese Ontwikkelingsorgprogram met betrekking tot hul sensoriese funksies tot en met die ouderdom van 18 maande (gekorrigeerde ouderdom). Die Sensoriese Ontwikkelingsorgprogram het geblyk prakties sowel as suksesvol te wees met betrekking tot sy doel. Die Program sou daarom met vrug in ander neonatale intensiewe sorgeenhede aangewend kon word.
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND Premature infants of very low birth weight are known to be inclined to developmental, medical, behavioural and various learning deficiencies by the time they reach schoolgoing age. Concerns have been raised about the effect of the neonatal intensive care unit environment on the sensory development of the premature infant and how this could contribute to these deficiencies. Various approaches claim to address this problem, of which kangaroo mother care and developmental care have in the literature been singled out as particularly promising. However, at the commencement of this study no empirical studies had been reported in the literature to confirm any of the claims of these approaches. Therefore, a need existed for an empirically researched programme that could be practically applied in the neonatal intensive care unit with a view to reducing environmental stressors regarding the sensory systems of the premature infant. AIM The aim of this study was to determine the influence of a Sensory Developmental Care Programme, which incorporated a specific kangaroo mother care protocol, on the sensory development of the very low birth weight premature infant, up to the age of 18 months (corrected age). METHODOLOGY A randomised controlled study was conducted. The study sample consisted of 89 very low birth weight premature infants, admitted during a 24-month period to the neonatal care unit at Tygerberg Hospital in Cape Town, South Africa. The infants were recruited by means of certain criteria and then randomly assigned to one of two groups: 1) the intervention group was cared for according to the Sensory Developmental Care Programme for ten recorded days; and 2) the control group that received the standard care of the unit, also for ten days. The intervention group consisted of 45 infants of whom 22 completed the study, while the control group consisted of 44 infants of whom 20 completed the study. Both study groups were followed up at six, 12 and 18 months (corrected age) when the Test of Sensory Functions in Infants was used to do a sensory developmental assessment. At 18 months (corrected age) a Griffiths Developmental Scale assessment was also conducted to determine function in other areas of development. Test results were analysed using repeated measures of ANOVA, and the Bonferoni t procedure to determine the effect that the Sensory Developmental Care Programme had on the sensory development of the infant up to 18 months (corrected age). RESULTS The results of the comparison of the performance of both groups (group effect), measured by the Test of Sensory Functions in Infants are of great importance to this study. The intervention group had a significant difference on the total score (p<0.00), as well as on the following four of the five sub-tests scores: reactivity to tactile deep pressure (p<0.03); adaptive motor functions (p<0.03); visual-tactile integration (p<0.00); and reactivity to vestibular stimulation (p<0.01). CONCLUSION The results of this study signify that the infants in the intervention group benefited from the Sensory Developmental Care Programme concerning their sensory functions up to the age of 18 months (corrected age). The Sensory Developmental Care Programme was demonstrated to be both practical and successful in terms of its aims. The Programme could therefore be fruitfully utilised in other neonatal intensive care units.

Background： ‘Preterm babies’ (gestational weeks less than 37 weeks) and ‘low birth weight babies’ (birth weight less or equal than 2500g) are worse pregnant outcomes. Since both incidence of preterm and low birth weight are significant predictors of infant mortality. Purpose: There are three objectives in our study. First，to evaluate the incidences of preterm and low birth weight babies in Taiwan from 1978 to 1997. Second，to evaluate the incidence of preterm and low birth weight babies in each countries in 1997.Third, to evaluate each possible confounders the odds ratio of preterm and low birth weight babies in Taiwan from 1991 to 1997. Materials & methods: We used the birth registration data from 1978 to 1997. We evaluate the incidence. We also used multiple logistic regression to control confounders (including year, maternal age, baby sex, maternal education, marital status, place…etc), and we evaluate the odds radio of several possible factor for preterm and low birth weight babies. Results: The incidences of preterm and low birth weight babies are steady increase yearly from 1978 to 1997. The incidences of preterm babies is 2.56% in 1978；The incidences of preterm babies is 6.29% in 1997. The incidences of low birth weight infants is 5.60% in 1978；The incidences of low birth weight infants is 10.99% in 1997. The incidences of preterm and low birth weight babies is in Nantou，Taitung and Haulien are significant highly then other country；The logistic regressions show that: the incidences of preterm and low birth weight babies are related to maternal age, baby sex, maternal education, marital status, place.

The purpose of the study was to expore the effect of the resilience on babies and mothers with very-low-birth-weight infants. The study was a cross-sectional, correlational research design in which purposive sampling were used. This data was collected from 2011/5/20 to 2011/8/31 with structural instrument. After obtaining permission from mothers, we shipped instruments to collect data. The instruments including : Personal Information Scale, Parenting Stress Index/Short Form, Social support Questionnaire, Parenting resilience Scale, Coping Scale, WHOQOL-BREF. We derive those very-low-birth-weight Premature’ s basic medical information and the Mental Development Index(MDI)and Psychomotor Development Index (PDI)of Bayley Scales of Infant Development 2nd, were performed at 12 months of age from corrected age (CA) of prematurity from the Premature Baby Foundation of Taiwan. Study participants were 91 very-low-birth-weight premature and 102 mothers of very-low-birth-weight Premature. The data was analyzed through SPSS Windows 15.0 statistical software. The results indicate that: (1)Firstly to analyze the parenting stress, the results show that the parental distress domain got the highest score, secondly the parenting resilience, the results show that the positive thinking domain got the highest score, thirdly the social support, the results show that the emotion social support domain got the highest score, fourth the coping strategy, the results show that the emotional-focused coping strategies got the highest score, finally the quality of life, the results show that the physiology health domain got the highest score. (2)The Psychomotor Development Index (PDI) of very-low-birth-weight premature had significantly negative relations with parent-child dysfunctional interaction, had significantly positive relations with emotion social support, facing frankly, self-encourage, positive thinking and the whole of parenting resilience; after that the Mental Development Index(MDI) of very-low-birth-weight premature had significantly negative relations with parent-child dysfunctional interaction, had significantly positive relations with problem- focused coping strategies, self-encourage, positive thinking, facing frankly and the whole of parenting resilience. Parenting stress had significantly negative relations with quality of life, and problem-focused coping strategies had significantly positive relations with quality of life. Emotional-focused coping strategies had significantly negative relations with quality of life, social support and the whole of parenting resilience had significantly positive relations with quality of life. (3)According to Multiple Regression analysis Parenting resilience affect Included of Psychomotor Development Index (PDI), Mental Development Index(MDI) of very-low-birth-weight premature, and quality of life of mother. Pregnancy type, number of children, family income, birth weight, gender, Respiratory Distress Syndrome(RDS), Periventricular Echodenisit(PVE), parenting stress, emotional-focused coping strategies are risk factors of parenting resilience. Problem- focused coping strategies, social support and mother education level are protective factors of parenting resilience. This study shows that resilience can promote very-low-birth-weight premature and mother’s health. Mothers who have positive thinking and facing frankly can make premature get higher scale in PDI, MDI and mothers’ quality of life. Based on this study, researchers might design a set of enhanced intervention measures parenting resilience in order to benefit more families in premature infants.

Background. Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is a leading cause of blindness for very low birth weight (VLBW, <1500g) babies. ROP screening identifies babies that require treatment to prevent major visual impairment. Objectives. To evaluate the screening for ROP at Charlotte Maxeke Johannesburg Academic Hospital (CMJAH) by reviewing the number of babies screened according to the CMJAH guidelines, the grades of ROP found and the treatment modality received. Methods. This was a retrospective record review of VLBW babies born between 1 January 2013 and 31 December 2013 at CMJAH, whether inborn or transferred in. The babies were divided into 2 groups based on age at final outcome. Final outcome was defined as death, discharge or transfer out of the unit. The ‘early’ outcome group had their final outcome before day 28 of life. The ‘late’ outcome group had their final outcome at day 28 or more of life. The early outcome group qualified for outpatient ROP screening and the late outcome group qualified for inpatient ROP screening. Results. There were a total of 572 VLBW babies at CMJAH during this time period. The babies had a mean birth weight of 1127g (SD 244.75) and gestational age of 29 weeks (SD 2.743). The mean duration of stay was 29 days (SD 21.66) and there were 309 female babies. Of these 572 babies, 304 comprised the early outcome group and 268 comprised the late outcome group. 7 In the early outcome group babies that were transferred out of the unit or died were excluded, therefore the remaining 147 babies discharged home qualified for outpatient ROP screening. Inpatient ROP Screening was carried out in 36/147 (24.4%) of these babies (not in accordance with ROP screening guidelines). ROP was documented in 4/36 (11.1%). Outpatient ROP screening records were unavailable. Exclusions from the late outcome group included 5 babies. In the late outcome group 111/263 (42.2%) were screened for ROP. ROP was found in 17%. One baby required treatment with intravitreal anti-VEGF and 3 babies required surgery. Conclusions. More than half of the babies in the late outcome group were not screened during their stay (57.8%). More than one third of babies were discharged prior to reaching the current recommended age for screening. Efforts need to be intensified to identify and screen all eligible babies prior to discharge. Outpatient ROP screening is not well documented, therefore prevalence cannot be established.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Background: Low Birth Weight (LBW) as babies born weighing less than 2500 grams. LBW continues to be a significant public health problem globally due to its short and long term effects on health. LBW is not the only leading cause of prenatal mortality and a cause of illness. Common causes of infant and neonatal mortality are low birth weight (LBW) and sepsis. One of the measures that can be given to babies with LBW is by using the Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC) method. This method is a free therapy that mothers can do because not all LBW babies are able to get health services using advanced technology. This study aimed to review mothers experience with low born weight infant. Subjects and Method: A scoping review was conducted by searching articles published from 2009 to 2019. The articles were collected based on 4 databases, including PubMed, Sciencedirect, Wiley, and EBSCO. The articles the reviewed using Preferred Reporting System for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) flow diagram. Results: Fifteen of the 394 articles met the inclusion criteria and were reviewed. The experience of mothers with Low Birth Weight (LBW) babies showed that mothers have several factors that can influence mothers with babies with LBW. The factors were lack of knowledge, lack of support from both family and health personnel, access to health facilities, maternal psychology, economic, socio-cultural, and environmental conditions. Conclusion: The readiness of maternal, psychological, socio-economic knowledge, access to health facilities, support, socio-culture, and environment are greatly affect the condition of the mother in carrying out her responsibilities as a mother.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Background: In Indonesia, nutrition is still the 5 biggest problem for mothers and children. Nutrition in the mother during pregnancy will affect the nutrition the infant gets while in the womb. Nutrition in children is very important in the first 1000 days of life because it will affect the growth and development of the infant. One way to assess the nutritional adequacy of new born is by measuring the infant’s weight at birth. This study aimed to determine the relationship between maternal weight and birth weight. Subjects and Method: This was a cross sectional study conducted at Pajang Community Health Center, Surakarta, Central Java. The study subjects were all mothers and infants whose birth weight were measured during February to March 2020. The dependent variable in this study was maternal weight. The independent variable was birth weight. The data were taken from the medical records of the Pajang Community Health Center. The data were analyzed using logistic regression test Results: Maternal weight below the normal weight had tendency to produce babies with less weight than pregnant women with normal maternal weight (OR= 55.00; p<0.001), and it was statistically significant. Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between maternal weight of pregnant women and birth weight Keywords: maternal weight, birth weight Correspondence: Rahmi Syuadzah.

Abstract:
The purpose of the study is to identify the factors concerning the incidence of asphyxia on maternity women during the Covid19 pandemic at Dr H Abdul Moeloek Lampung Province Hospital in 2021. The study is a correlational analytical survey with a case-control approach. The population of the study consisted of 244 neonates in which 122 of them became the samples. The objects of this study were maternal age, amniotic fluid, birth weight, umbilical cord entanglement, infection, partum age, newborns diagnosed with asphyxia neonatorum. The study was conducted at Dr H Abdul Moeloek Lampung Province Hospital in July 2021. Data collection technique was through observation sheet. The data analysis was univariate and bivariate. It was found that there was no relationship among maternal age (p value = 0.708), amniotic fluid (p-value = 0.896), birth weight (p value = 0.000), umbilical cord entanglement (0.370), infection (p value = 0.285) towards the incidence of asphyxia at Dr H Abdul Moeloek Lampung Province Hospital in 2021. Pregnant women should improve their knowledge about the risk factors of pregnant women and infants that may cause death. They are suggested to diligently check their pregnancy or ANC to know and monitor the condition of their babies

Full text
Abstract:
In the last two decades, Kenya has attained middle-income status and established a diverse and private-sector-driven economy. On several socIo-economic indicators, such as education, gender equality, and democracy, Kenya scores much higher than its peers. More than two-thirds of Kenyans are under 35 years of age, thus the country’s development hinges on the quality of its youth—their levels of education and skills, their values and attitudes, and the quality of their health and productivity. While Kenya’s investments in the development of its human capital positions the country well to sustain accelerated growth, the trajectory is threatened by high rates of malnutrition, which contributes to the country’s disease burden and has a large effect on socio-economic development. About 26 percent of children in Kenya are stunted, and evidence indicates that poor nutrition in early life can create consequences for learning and future productivity. Women who were stunted as children are likely to give birth to low-birth-weight babies, which is associated with higher levels of morbidity and mortality. This report analyzes the status of stunting in Kenya from a household perspective and points to pathways for addressing it.
