Abstract:
Diagnosis and treatment of severe combined immunodeficiency disease (SCID) is documented in fetuses, term infants, and older children; however, there is very little information on its diagnosis and treatment in premature infants. When Duke University Medical Center’s first preterm infant with a known SCID history was delivered, in June 1999, there was no defined protocol for the infant’s nursing care. Although many of the guidelines for nursing care of the premature infant population (≤36 weeks) apply, there are important considerations for preterm infants with an SCID diagnosis. This article provides background on SCID and identifies those special considerations—namely, multidisciplinary communication, infection prevention, thorough physical assessments, and parental support.

Abstract:
The interaction between infant feeding and maternal lactational physiology influences female inter-birth intervals and mediates maternal reproductive trade-offs. We investigated variation in feeding development in 72 immature wild chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes schweinfurthii) at Ngogo, Kibale National Park, Uganda, and made inferences about maternal lactation over the course of infancy. We compared the percentage (%) of time that mothers nursed infants as a function of infant age and assessed how hourly rates and bout durations of nursing and foraging varied in association with differences in offspring age, sex, and maternal parity. Nursing % times, rates and durations were highest for infants ≤ 6 months old but did not change significantly from 6 months to 5 years old. Nursing continued at a decreasing rate for some 5- to 7-year-olds. Infants ≤ 6 months old foraged little. Foraging rates did not change after 1 year old, but foraging durations and the % time devoted to foraging increased with age. Independent foraging probably became a dietary requirement for infants at 1 year old, when their energy needs may have surpassed the available milk energy. Infants spent as much time foraging by the time they were 4 to 5 years old as adults did. No sex effect on infant nursing or foraging was apparent, but infants of primiparous females had higher foraging rates and spent more time foraging than the infants of multiparous females did. Although no data on milk composition were collected, these findings are consistent with a working hypothesis that like other hominoids, chimpanzee mothers maintained a fixed level of lactation effort over several years as infants increasingly supplemented their growing energy, micronutrient and hydration needs via independent foraging. Plateauing lactation may be a more widespread adaptation that allows hominoid infants time to attain the physiology and skills necessary for independent feeding, while also providing them with a steady dietary base on which they could rely consistently through infancy, and enabling mothers to maintain a fixed, predictable level of lactation effort.

Abstract:
Abstract Optimal nutrition is one of the most important aspects in the care of infants, especially for the preterm infants and neonates. Until the 1900s, an infant’s survival and health were closly related to the availability of breastmilk. Human milk was and still is the best food for nearly all infants. Besides physical growth, human milk offers a variety of other benefits, including modulation of postnatal intestinal function, maturation of immune system, and has positive effect on brain development. Even though breastfeeding is highly recommended, it may not always be possible, suitable or adequate. Through history, the evolution of infant feeding included wet nursing, bottle feeding, and formula use. Wet nursing was the safest and most common alternative to the breastmilk before bottles and infant milk formula were invented. However, society's negative view of wet nursing together with the invention and improvements of the feeding bottle, the availability of animal’s milk, and advances in milk formula development, gradually led to replacing wet nursing with bottle feeding. Such evolution of infant feeding methods was similar throughout the world and Slovenia followed the trend. In this article, we review the history of different methods of infant feeding, other than breastfeeding, all of which presented an alternative to breastfeeding.

Abstract:
Background Since 25 August, 2017 over 693,000 Rohingya have been forced from Myanmar due to mass violence, seeking refuge in neighboring Bangladesh. Nutritional surveys during 2017 revealed worrying levels of malnutrition and poor infant feeding practices, including high numbers of infants not exclusively breastfeeding. Infants under 6 months who are not exclusively breastfed are particularly vulnerable to morbidity and mortality and require specialized feeding support, especially in emergency contexts. Research Aim To describe Save the Children International’s experiences supporting wet nursing, relactation, and artificial feeding for non-breastfed infants under 6 months in the Rohingya Response, Bangladesh. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted of routine program data and documentation from Save the Children International’s infant and young child feeding in emergencies interventions for the Rohingya Response, Bangladesh, from November 2017 to April 2018. The study population were infants under 6 months identified as not breastfed during the initial assessment ( N = 15). Results Although wet nursing was attempted with all infants, it was successful with 6 (40%) of the infants. Additionally, 1 (6.7%) infant’s mother was able to successfully relactate. The remaining infants ended up requiring feeding with human milk substitutes. Conclusion Gaps exist in operational guidance to support non-breastfed infants with wet nursing and relactation in emergency settings, as well as on how to operationalize safe human milk substitute programming in line with national policies and regulations. There is an urgent need to address this gap to protect the lives of non-breastfed infants in emergencies worldwide.

Abstract:
Bronchiolitis is the leading cause of morbidity and hospitalization in infants under the age of one year. Supportive treatments and regular assessment remain the mainstay of care for infants admitted to hospital. Nurses play an important role in the assessment of infants with bronchiolitis; however, this is not well described in the literature and consequently little is known about what strategies nurses employ in assessing infants with bronchiolitis. The aim of this study was to explore bronchiolitis assessment in the context of nursing practice. A naturalistic inquiry study was undertaken using think aloud and retrospective probing data collection methods. The results revealed that the information gathered by nurses in their assessment of infants with bronchiolitis was varied and the process of acquiring and evaluating this information was multifaceted and holistic in nature. A close partnership between the nurse and mother was identified, and the mother’s expert knowledge and ability to identify subtle changes in the infant’s clinical condition over time was essential to the assessment process. The assessment partnership with families provides nurses with the most comprehensive and holistic view of the infant’s clinical condition and vital assessment information could be lost if this partnership does not occur.

Abstract:
Premature infants confront numerous physiologic and environmental stressors in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) that have the potential to permanently alter their neurodevelopment. Schore’s regulation theory postulates that positive maternal–infant interactions can shape the infant’s developmental outcomes through inducing mechanistic changes in brain structure and function. The purposes of this article are to explain the regulation of infant neurobiological processes during interactions between mothers and healthy infants in the context of Schore’s theory, to identify threats to these processes for premature infants, and to propose principles of clinical practice and areas of research necessary to establish a supportive environment and prevent or reduce maladaptive consequences for these vulnerable infants. A premature birth results in the disruption of neurodevelopment at a critical time. Chronic exposure to stressors related to the NICU environment overwhelms immature physiologic and stress systems, resulting in significant allostatic load, as measured by long-term neurodevelopmental impairments in the premature infant. Positive maternal–infant interactions during NICU hospitalization and beyond have the potential to reduce neurologic deficits and maximize positive neurodevelopmental outcomes in premature infants. The quality of the maternal–infant interaction is affected not only by the infant’s developing neurobiology but also by the mother’s responses to the stressors surrounding a premature birth and mothering an infant in the NICU environment. Nurses can empower mothers to overcome these stressors, promote sensitive interactions with their infants, and facilitate neurodevelopment. Research is critically needed to develop and test nursing interventions directed at assisting mothers in supporting optimal neurodevelopment for their infants.

Abstract:
It is often assumed that where infants cannot be breastfed by their own mothers, as is often the case in emergency situations, the second-best option is to use infant formula. However, wet nursing is usually a better option than infant formula. The wet nursing could be spontaneous or it could organized in advance. In many cases, the needs of infants who cannot be breastfed by their own mothers could be met with the help of lactating women in their area. In some cases banked human milk might meet the need, but in emergency situations it is not likely to be readily available when and where it is needed. Plans could be made by women’s groups to offer lactation services in their areas in emergency situations.

Abstract:
WORKING WITH PRETERM OR SICK INFANTS IN AN intensive care setting involves interdisciplinary teamwork and nursing professionalism. The growing importance of genetic testing in health care is generating concerns that can affect the lives of patients well beyond the period of infancy. New information on antenatal care can help those involved in the care of pregnant women to anticipate potential problems and improve pregnancy outcomes. Ongoing research is continuing to deepen our understanding of preterm infants, helping neonatal nurses to improve care procedures, work with parents and families, and address concerns of infant development.

Abstract:
The infant’s refusal to breastfeed can be a stressful and concerning matter for a mother. This study aimed to investigate the frequency and factors leading to nursing strikes in Rafsanjan city. This descriptive study was performed on infants who had been referred to the pediatrician’s office with a complaint of a nursing strike. The research sample included 70 infants, and all the required data, including the causes of the nursing strike and the demographic information of the mother and the infant, were collected using a checklist. The Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) software version 20 was used to analyze the data. The percentage was used to express qualitative indices, and the mean and standard deviation were used to express quantitative indices. The results showed that the most common factors contributing to the infants’ breast refusal were playfulness and distraction (50%) and recent vaccinations in the last 12 days (48.6%). Besides, the most common maternal factors affecting breast refusal were level of education (67.1%), recent acute stress (41.4%), and inadequate milk production (35.7%). The results of the present study showed that playfulness and distraction of the baby, recent vaccination, use of a pacifier, level of education and recent stress of the mother, breastfeeding program, and insufficient milk production are the most common reasons for nursing strikes.

Abstract:
BackgroundThe pharmacological treatment of depression in nursing women requires information on the magnitude of medication exposure to the infant that may occur through breast milk.AimsTo examine serum concentrations of antidepressants in infants exposed to these medications through breast-feeding.MethodMaternal and infant serum concentrations of sertraline, paroxetine and fluvoxamine were determined with high-performance liquid chromatography (limit of detections=1 ng/ml).ResultsNo detectable medication was present in any infant exposed to paroxetine (n=16) or fluvoxamine (n=4). Among infants exposed to sertraline (n=30), detectable medication was present in 24% of serum samples. A significant negative correlation was found between infant age and infant serum concentration. Sertraline was significantly more likely to be detected in an infant if the mother's daily dose was 100 mg or higher. No adverse sequelae occurred in any infant.ConclusionsThis study shows that paroxetine, fluvoxamine and sertraline produce minimal exposure to infants when taken by nursing mothers.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to assess if preterm infants receiving an intervention of intermittent human tactile contact would demonstrate clinical improvement over infants who did not receive the intervention. A quasi-experimental design was used with 26 infants between 28 and 32 weeks gestation. Hands were placed on the infants' heads and lower backs for a total of 36 minutes of tactile contact a day for 10 days. Findings indicated a significant gain in mean body weight for both groups between Day 0 and Day 10. Also, there was a significant decrease in mean hematocrit in the control group between Day 0 and Day 10. On Day 10, experimental infants had a significantly higher mean number of apneic and bradycardic episodes than control infants. There were no significant mean differences between the groups for body weight, body temperature stability, oxygen variance, or hematocrit. Data suggest that gentle human touch may be correlated with desireable outcomes. Further research is necessary.

Abstract:
While there is evidence that the interactions that occur in the early years of life between very-low-birthweight (VLBW) infants and their mothers affects later child development, little is known about the factors that are associated with responsive and sensitive mother-VLBW infant interaction. Belsky's (1984) model of the determinants of parenting proposes that multiple child, parent, and contextual factors influence parenting behaviour. This prospective study examined the combined influence of a set of infant (i.e., birthweight and perinatal illness severity), mother (i.e., state anxiety and parenting sense of competence), and contextual variables (i.e., maternal received and perceived helpfulness of support, and marital adjustment) on mother-infant interaction, and assessed which factors were associated with sensitive and responsive interaction.
The participants were 72 mothers and their VLBW infants (<1500 grams). Infant, mother, and contextual variables were assessed at 3- and 9-months of age (corrected). At 9 months, mother-infant teaching interactions were observed in the home and later coded using the Nursing Child Assessment Teaching Scale (NCATS).
Hierarchical multiple regression analyses were used to examine the relationship between mother-infant interaction and the infant, mother and contextual variables. The prospective model explained 33% of the variance in the interactive behaviour of the dyad. Dyads whose interaction was more sensitive and responsive at 9 months included mothers who were better-educated, less anxious at 3 months, and reported higher perceived support at 3 months. The concurrent model explained 29% of the variance in the interactive behaviour of the dyad. Dyads whose interaction was more sensitive and responsive included mothers who were better-educated and reported higher perceived support at 9 months. The hypothesis that the mother variables would be more important than the contextual variables in explaining mother-infant interaction was not supported. The findings highlight the importance of examining multiple infant, parent, and contextual variables to explain mother-VLBW infant interaction.

Full text
Abstract:
Background. Hospitalized infants still experience pain from regularly performed tissue-damaging procedures. Nurses have knowledge to manage the pain but do not apply that knowledge. There is agreement that hospital organizational factors influence quality of care outcomes and some indication that patient factors may influence level of care.
Objective. This study examined the factors from a conceptual model entitled Knowledge Use for Pain Care. These were (1) nurse, (2) organizational and (3) infant factors in relation to nurses' management of tissue-damaging procedures in hospitalized infants.
Research design. A prospective study using two neonatal intensive care units in two Canadian provinces in 2005 was used.
Participants. Ninety-three nurses who performed 170 tissue-damaging procedures.
Measures. Nurse demographic data included education, and years of experience. Nurses' knowledge of pain was measured using the new Pain Knowledge and Use instrument. Organizational factors were measured using the nurse-doctor Collaboration and Satisfaction about Care Decisions Scale (Baggs, 1994), and the Environmental Complexity Scale (O'Brien, Irvine, Peereboom & Murray, 1997). Infant factors included age and intensity of care required. Actual pain care was measured by a scorecard of nurses' assessment, management and documentation for the tissue-damaging procedure. Estimates of professional nurse, organizational and infant effects on nurses' pain care for the tissue-damaging procedures were derived from general estimating equations.
Results. Higher procedural pain care was associated with higher nurse doctor collaboration (odds ratio {OR}, 1.44; 95% confidence intervals {CI} 1.05-1.98), infants with higher intensity of care (OR, 1.21; 95% CI, 1.06-1.39), unanticipated increases in the work of nurse assignments (OR, 1.55; 95% CI, 1.04-2.30). Nurse's level of pain knowledge was adequate but did not translate into actual care for tissue-damaging procedures.
Conclusion. The results suggest that the model was partly supported. In particular the importance of nurse-physician collaboration in pain care delivery, a variable amenable to intervention and further study was significant. Overall, the factors that influence nurse's use of their pain knowledge to provide better care remain a complex issue.

Abstract:
Problem: Identifying the factors effecting birth transition success of late preterm infants may improve early recognition of newborn compromise. Multiple explanatory variables may be associated with birth transition success or failure. The purpose of the study was to determine the prevalence of, and clinical-epidemiological and demographic predictive factors for birth transition success of late preterm infants. Methods: A retrospective case-control chart review was used to compare the characteristics of successful and unsuccessful birth transition of 35 and 36 week gestational age late-preterm infants delivered in a large tertiary-care center during calendar year 2007. A mixture of categorical and numeric variables related to maternal, birth, and physiologic constructs were analyzed for their effects on birth transition as a binary outcome variable (success or failure). Results: Of 22 variables tested, four predictor variables were associated with birth transition failure: labor (OR = .42, p = .014), 5-minute Apgar score (OR = 1.79, p = .043), gender (OR = .47, p =.003), and respiratory rate (OR= 2.08, p = .001) as tested by logistic regression. The model was able to accurately assign transition failure and success at a rate of 66.7% and 74% respectively. The overall model was statistically significant (likelihood ratio chi square = 38.97(4), p less than].001). The Hosmer & Lemseshow test indicated that the model estimates fit the data at an acceptable level (chi]?? = 7.72, p = .358). Discussion/Implication: The absence of labor was identified as a risk factor for transition failure in this population. Male preterm infants were nearly twice as likely to fail transition as females in this population. The case group had a higher frequency of lower 5-minute Apgar scores, resulting in significantly lower mean scores. The failed transition group had more than twice the number of newborns with abnormally high respirations than the control group.; These findings indicate that identification infants at risk for birth transition failure begins with the recognition of the absence of labor as a significant risk factor for birth transition failure of late preterm infants.

The first shortcoming is that the effect of oral motor stimulation on gastric tube use, ENT abnormalities, or barium swallowing test was weak or absent. The second shortcoming was the shorter hospital stays of the infants in the study could be explained by other factors. These weaknesses would prevent the immediate adoption of those conclusions in health care as of now.

Abstract:
This study was designed to compare the behavioral pain responses of 2-month-old Canadian-born Chinese babies receiving a routine immunization to those of Caucasian infants in similar situations. Two groups of 26 infants were obtained through convenience from a pediatric clinic held by a Chinese pediatrician at the Chinese Hospital and a suburban pediatric practice of a large Canadian city. Facial expression using the Neonatal Facial Coding System (Grunau & Craig, 1987) and cry using the Fast Fourier Transform were measured during 30 seconds following the insertion of the needle. Acculturation in Chinese mothers, infant temperament, circadian rhythm, were assessed. Multivariate analysis of variance revealed significant differences in pain response between these two groups with the Chinese babies showing greater response. No significant effect of temperament, circadian rhythm, and gender was identified. This supports the presence of differences in pain response in relation to culture/race by at least 2 months of age.

The purpose of this research was to describe the relationship between maternal perception of infant health, reliance on others and caregiving in mothers of low birth weight (LBW) (ṉ = 30) infants and mothers of normal birth weight infants (ṉ = 30). A descriptive research design was used for a secondary analysis of data. Significant relationships were found between maternal perception of: infant health and caregiver burden (R² =.29, p̱ ≤ .001); confidence in caregiving and caregiver burden (R² change =.12, p̱ ≤ .01); infant health and confidence in caregiving (R² change =.18, p̱ ≤ .001); and preparation for caregiving and confidence in caregiving (R² change =.10, p̱ ≤ .02). A significant difference was found between mothers of LBW infants and mothers of normal birth weight infants in their perception of infant health (ṯ (58) = -2.02, p̱ ≤ .05) and caregiver burden (ṯ (58) = -3.50, p̱ ≤ .001).

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Background: Impaired growth and development of children impact the child’s future. Exclusive breastfeeding is essential for the optimal growth and development of children. This study aimed to determine the effect of exclusive breastfeeding on the growth and development of infants aged 0-24 months. Subjects and Method: This was a cross-sectional study conducted at Wonokromo district, Surabaya, East Java, from June to July 2020. A total of 40 under-two-years children was selected by purposive sampling. The dependent variable was the growth and development of children. The data for the growth of children were collected by accessing weight-for-age, length/ height-for-age, and head circumference measurement. The data for the development of children were collected using Revised Prescreening Developmental questionnaires (R-PDQ). The independent variable was exclusive breastfeeding. The data were analyzed by chi-square. Results: Children receiving exclusive breastfeeding (96.8%) showed a better status of growth and development than without receiving exclusive breastfeeding (11.1%), and it was statistically significant (p < 0.001). Conclusion: Children receiving exclusive breastfeeding (96.8%) show a better status of growth and development than without receiving exclusive breastfeeding.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Background: Maternal and infant mortality rates remain high in most developing countries including Indonesia. An approach so called as the interprofessional collaboration (IPC) has been considered to have its potential to improve the emergency obstetric and neonatal care. Little is known about the effectiveness of leadership in enhancing IPC. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of leadership on improving the IPC in the comprehensive emergency obstetric and neonatal services. Subjects and Method: This was a qualitative study using an embedded case study approach. This study was conducted at PKU Muhammadiyah Gamping Hospital, Yogyakarta, as a type C teaching hospital. The data were collected by observation, in-depth interview, and document review. Results: This study found three themes: (1) collaborative leadership; (2) leadership issues; and (3) stakeholder input. The inter-professional collaboration included doctors, consultant doctors, supervisor, shift coordinator, and nurses in charge of nursing care. The interprofessional collaboration had been implemented. The principle of leadership had supported the interprofessional collaboration. The IPC team had understood and applied the principles of leadership that support the IPC. The leadership attributes on demand for the IPC included visionary, participatory, and coaching. The leadership issues included the difference in advice between doctors. The theme for nurses was improving the quality of interprofesional collaboration. Conclusion: The leadership attributes to improve the interprofessional collaboration include visionary, participatory, and coaching for the comprehensive emergency obstetric and neonatal services.
