Abstract:
Background Abusive head trauma (AHT) is a serious health problem affecting more than 3000 infants annually in the United States. The American Academy of Pediatrics and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommend that health care providers counsel new parents about the dangers of AHT. Previous studies demonstrate that parental education is effective at reducing AHT events. South Carolina law requires hospitals to offer all new parents with the opportunity to watch an educational video about AHT. This mandate is addressed in different ways at the several delivery centers within a large South Carolina health care system with a range of viewing methods utilized, from DVD players to mobile workstations to personal devices. Frequent technical barriers and workflow inefficiencies resulted in low rates of compliance with this mandate at several campuses. To improve compliance of parent viewing of this educational video, the health care system standardized video viewing protocol across all campuses by implementing the use of iPads for parental education. Existing literature suggests that patient education can be improved in the hospital setting by utilizing tablet computers, but our literature search identified a gap in research around the education of parents and caregivers during hospitalization for childbirth. We used the implementation of an iPad-based parental education delivery protocol to evaluate whether tablet computers can improve compliance with delivering new parent education in the hospital setting. Objective The objective of this study was to evaluate whether the standardized use of iPads to deliver education in the mother–baby unit resulted in improved rates of parents’ acceptance of the opportunity to view an educational video about AHT. Methods We interviewed physicians and nurses to determine what previous protocols were in place to educate new parents before a standardized iPad-based protocol was implemented across 6 campuses of a large South Carolina health care system. A retrospective study was conducted by review of 5231 records from across the 6 campuses to determine the pre- and postintervention compliance rates of viewing the AHT educational video by parents in the mother–baby unit. Results Compliance increased overall (P<.001) across sites from an average of 41.93% (SD 46.24) to 99.73% (SD 0.26) (φ=0.510). As much as 4 of 6 locations saw a significant increase in compliance rates after introducing the iPad intervention (P<.001). The remaining 2 locations that showed no significant difference (P>.05) had very high rates of preintervention compliance. Conclusions Following the implementation of a standardized iPad-based protocol to deliver new parent education, there was a significant improvement in the percentage of new parents who viewed an educational video about AHT in the mother–baby unit. Based on these results, other health care providers should consider iPads to be a feasible and effective method for delivering hospital-based education to families in the mother–baby unit.

Abstract:
Background Parents’ stress resulting from hospitalization of their infant in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) produces emotional and behavioral responses. The National Institutes of Health–sponsored Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) offers a valid and efficient means of assessing parents’ responses. Objective To examine the relationship of stress to anxiety, depression, fatigue, and sleep disruption among parents of infants hospitalized in the NICU. Methods Thirty parents completed the Parental Stressor Scale (PSS:NICU) containing subscales for NICU Sights and Sounds, Infant Behavior and Appearance, and Parental Role Alteration, and the PROMIS anxiety, depression, fatigue, and sleep disturbance short-form instruments. Results PSS total score was significantly correlated with anxiety (r = 0.61), depression (r = 0.36), and sleep disturbance (r = 0.60). Scores for NICU Sights and Sounds were not significantly correlated with parents’ outcomes; however, scores for Alteration in Parenting Role were correlated with all 4 outcomes, and scores for Infant Appearance were correlated with all except fatigue. Conclusion Stress experienced by parents of NICU infants is associated with a concerning constellation of physical and emotional outcomes comprising anxiety, depression, fatigue, and sleep disruption.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTTo improve family–infant bonding while newborns were separated from their parents, work began to develop a new Childbirth Center policy to guide staff in using Apple’s FaceTime application with patients. Multidisciplinary meetings were held to obtain consent for the use of FaceTime and to protect patient information. We acquired two iPads and the support needed for updates. The staff was educated, and implementation began in January, 2014.This program improved bonding as evidenced by feedback received from the parents who utilized it. Several parents commented on how much they preferred seeing images of their babies in motion breathing and crying instead of just still pictures. Physicians also used FaceTime while talking with parents about plans of care. Since our implementation, we have utilized FaceTime with 46 infants to impact bonding in our Special Care Nursery. This process enhances the delivery of relationship-based care with our patients.

Abstract:
Aim. To study the effectiveness of the use of individual dento-somatic profiles at the stages of orthodontic treatment to improve the quality assessment of orthodontic intervention and compliance achievement between doctor and patient/parents.Methods. The study involved 196 adolescents with dentoalveolar anomalies needing treatment with fixed appliances. The first group (main group) consisted of 108 patients aged 12-15 years with dentoalveolar anomalies amid the pathology of the upper gastrointestinal tract. The second group (comparison group) consisted of 86 adolescents with dentoalveolar anomalies without somatic pathology. Dento-somatic profiles with determining the factors influencing the effectiveness of orthodontic treatment were developed. Modeling of individual dento-somatic profiles was performed by means of integral coefficients.Results. In the first group, individual dento-somatic profiles were visually demonstrated to the patients, where a sharp decrease in the level of hygiene was clearly presented. A professional cleaning, the constant use of individual oral care preparations, the use of medications to improve the local immunity in the oral cavity were recommended to them. After 3, 6 and 12 months, the level of hygiene in almost all of the first group adolescents (82.6%) improved to satisfactory values, statistically significantly increased «physician-parents» and «physician-patient» compliance. Indicators of the second group patients were by 2-2.3 times worse. With irregular medical follow-up pathological symptoms fixation, lack of understanding between parents, doctor and patient were revealed. Incompleteness of orthodontic treatment was equally dependent on both the financial difficulties and a lack of understanding of the problem importance on the part of parents and adolescents.Conclusion. Using individual dento-somatic profiles proved to be effective in improving quality assessment of orthodontic intervention and compliance achievement between physician and patient/parents; misunderstanding of features of treatment with fixed appliances by parents and patients, orthodontist inability to provide quality medical management has a negative impact on the effectiveness and significantly increases the duration of orthodontic treatment.

Abstract:
Health care providers’ opinions can influence how parents place their infant to sleep. Neonatal nurses can improve how they teach and model safe infant sleep practices to parents. To increase neonatal nurses’ knowledge, a sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) prevention program was implemented. Program components included a computerized teaching tool, a crib card, sleep sacks, and discharge instructions. Initial program evaluation showed that 98 percent of infants slept supine and 93 percent slept in sleep sacks in open cribs. However, nurses continued to swaddle some infants with blankets to improve thermoregulation. To increase nursing compliance in modeling safe infant sleep practices, Halo SleepSack Swaddles were provided for nurses to use in place of a blanket to regulate infant temperature. Recent data show that 100 percent of infants in open cribs are now sleeping supine wearing a Halo Swaddle or a traditional Halo SleepSack. This model program can easily be replicated to enhance neonatal nurses’ knowledge about SIDS prevention.

AbstractObjectiveTo investigate the efficacy and patient satisfaction of the EarWell Infant Ear Correction System combined with modular parents’ nursing education's curative effect on deformed auricle.MethodsA total of 42 patients (29 boys and 13 girls; 73 ears; age ≤3 months) with auricle deformities who had received EarWell Infant Ear Correction System's treatment and modular parents’ nursing education in Guangzhou Children and Women's Medical Center between April and October 2018. The modular parents’ education program is standardized by EarWell system. Physician and patients’ parents compared the severity of auricle deformity separately before and after the treatment by using the auricle deformities visual analogue scales (VAS) rating system. Patient satisfaction was evaluated by using global aesthetic improvement scale (GAIS). The data collected of auricle deformities VAS and GAIS satisfaction score were applied to measure the treatment's effectiveness.ResultsAll the 42 patients (73 external ears) completed the treatment with EarWell Infant Ear Correction System and modular parents’ nursing education. The mean age at initiation of treatment was 37.87 ± 19.44 days and the therapeutic time span was 47.21 ± 17.36 days. At the end of treatment, the physician's and patients’ guardians rating of the severity of auricle deformity were significantly improved separately compared to the initial rating (8.33 ± 1.27 vs. 6.51 ± 0.84; P < 0.005) (5.77 ± 1.59 vs. 8.19 ± 2.38 P < 0.05). During the treatment and parents’ home nursing care period, the side effect and complications were minor like skin eczema and irrigation; there were no severe complications such as necrosis of the skin and cartilage. The patient tolerance for the treatment was acceptable with the adequate parents’ nursing care. Most patients’ guardians were satisfied with the treatment outcomes of EarWell Infant Ear Correction System with more engagement of nursing care, the GAIS's rating were increased from pretreatment stage's 26.19% to treatment completed stage's 90.48%, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05).ConclusionsIn this study, we proved that EarWell Infant Ear Correction System with its unique parents’ modular nursing care education, as a noninvasive treatment, reasonably improved auricle morphological malformation, and patients’ guardians satisfaction with few complications, which is worthy of a wildly clinical promotion.

Abstract:
Objectiv:The most common etiology of unilateral facial palsy is Bell’s palsy, also called as idiopathic facial palsy. Bell’s palsy in infant is rare and an uncommon clinical entity and often taken as pediatric emergency by parents. Paralysis of facial nerve has a tremendous impact on patient as well as parents particularly when a pediatric patient is affected. It is regarded as a diagnosis of exclusion. Bell’s palsy in infants is rare than adults and diagnosis is made on the basis of exclusion.Aim and Objectives:Clinical diagnosis and management of Bell’s palsy among infants from a tertiary care hospital of eastern India.Material and Methods:In this prospective study, we have documented detail clinical manifestation and management of infants of Bell’s palsy from the pediatric age group. When an infant presents with facial nerve paralysis, a full clinical history and detailed examination were recommended for accurate diagnosis. Simultaneously, the parents were reassured and the prognosis was explained to the parents. Oral steroids along with physiotherapy were started in the outdoor basis.Results:We diagnosed six infants of Bell’s palsy in age group of 5 months to 12 months. Among them 4 females and rest 3 were male. These Infants showed improvement with complete recovery in 83% cases within 3 weeks whereas partial recovery was seen in rest.Conclusion:In this study, we find out that, oral steroids along with physiotherapy and eye care are effective for Bell’s palsy in infants.Keywords:Bell’s palsy, infant, facial nerve, oral steroid.

Abstract:
Objective: Neonatal recommendations include medical follow-up, metabolic screening, vitamin K, eye drops/ointment and vaccinations. Most but not all parents follow these recommendations. This study aimed to characterize the non-adherent mothers in order to understand the reasons behind that non-adherence. Study design: All mothers who refused any routine treatment of their infant or who asked for early discharge of their infant were included. They completed a questionnaire on socio-economic items, previous births and those children’s health status, current pregnancy and delivery and their beliefs. Results: Three non-adherent subgroups emerged according to the responses: Muslim mothers requesting early discharge to care for children at home, Jewish mothers requesting early discharge because they disliked the hospital environment, Sabbath/holiday and children at home and Jewish mothers who rejected guidelines because they believed the treatments were unnecessary or possibly harmful to their infants. Conclusion: Socio-economic factors could influence maternal adherence to care guidelines in a well-baby nursery. Several interventions to enhance maternal adherence to medical recommendations are proposed in order to increase the child and family centeredness of clinical and social care.

Abstract:
Genital surgery in children with ambiguous or atypical genitalia has been marred by controversies about the appropriateness and timing of surgery, generating clinical uncertainty about decision making. Since 2006, medical experts and patient advocates have argued for putting the child’s needs central as patient-centered care. Based on audio recordings of 31 parent–clinician interactions in three clinics of disorders of sex development, we analyze how parents and clinicians decide on genital surgery. We find that clinicians and parents aim for parent-centered rather than infant-centered care. Parents receive ambivalent messages about surgery: while clinicians express caution, they also present the surgery as beneficial. We examine how parents and clinicians reach agreement about surgery—differentiating parents who push strongly for surgery from parents who do not express any preconceived preferences about surgery and parents who resist surgery. We conclude that clinicians use clinical uncertainty about surgery strategically to direct parents toward perceived clinically appropriate decisions.

Abstract:
Background: Having a newborn baby admitted in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) can be a stressful experience for the parents. Objectives: This study was planned to know the following: 1. The concerns of parents whose babies were admitted in NICU 2. Parental satisfaction level about the services provided 3. Assessment of parents for their understanding and knowledge at discharge Study Design: Semiqualitative interview. Participants: Parents of 100 (56 M, 44 F) neonates. Intervention: We subjected them to a semiqualitative interview on the day of discharge of their newborn infant. Questionnaire consisted of parent’s understanding regarding NICU and health care providers, their perspective about the possible cause of illness in their baby along with competence and communication skills of health care providers. Parental satisfaction about the services was assessed by the short assessment of patient satisfaction (SAPS). They were assessed for their anxiety and depression levels by hospital anxiety and depression scale (HADS). They were assessed for their knowledge about care of baby at home after discharge by patient knowledge questionnaire (PKQ). Results: Parents of 44% babies had no prior idea about NICU and why babies need to be admitted. In total, 48% mothers and 36% fathers had clinically significant anxiety levels as assessed by HADS. Many parents complained about lack of communication about their babies illness, its cause, duration of treatment, and prognosis. Both parents scored the caregivers on borderline scores on the SAPS. At discharge only 13% knew the correct dose and duration of medicines prescribed. PKQ scores varied from 5 to 20. Almost all parents emphasized the need for more space, resting place for mothers, and better communication by doctors. Conclusions: This study reveals a significant communication gap between health care providers and parents. Concerns of parents have to be addressed to have their full participation in newborn care.

Abstract:
It is a common belief among many individuals that being ‘good with people’ is something you are born with and cannot be taught. It is true that some individuals have a more open disposition and can relate well to others. However, everyone can adopt approaches that put children and parents at ease. It is particularly important for dentists to learn how to help people relax, as failure to empathize and communicate will result in disappointed patients and an unsuccessful practising career. Communicating effectively with children is of great value, as ‘being good with younger patients’ is a practice-builder and can reduce the stress involved when offering clinical care. All dental training should include a thorough understanding of how children relate to an adult world, how the dental visit should be structured, and what strategies are available to help children cope with their apprehension about dental procedures. This chapter will consider these items, beginning with a discussion on the theories of psychological development and following this up with sections on parents and their influence on dental treatment, dentist–patient relationships, anxious and uncooperative children, and helping anxious patients to cope with dental care. The psychological development of children was originally viewed as a series of well-defined phases, but is now seen as a continuum. The phases of development may well differ from child to child, so cannot be rigidly applied, but for clarity are described as a series of psychological developmental milestones from infancy to adulthood. The most important theoretical perspective now influencing thinking about child development is John Bowlby’s attachment theory. Bowlby suggested that child development could best be understood within the framework of patterns of interaction between the infant and the primary caregiver. If there were problems in this interaction, the child was likely to develop insecure and/or anxious patterns that would affect the ability to form stable relationships with others, to develop a sense of self-worth, and to move towards independence. The other important concept to note is that development is a lifelong process—we do not switch off at 18—nor is it an even process. Development is uneven, influenced by periods of rapid bodily change.

"Lack of parental interaction and support has consistently been found to be crippling to the development of young children. Spitz's (1945,1947) widely quoted study of foundling homes versus nursery care related maternal and social deprivation to increased infant mortality, susceptibility to disease, retardation in growth, and failure to achieve developmental milestones. Whereas the Spitz study compared the effects of interaction between two highly specialized environments, McCarthy and Booth (1970) found evidence of a syndrome resembling Spitz' "hospitalism" occurring in children living at home with their parents. The most prominent abnormalities they described were dwarfism and subnormal weight/height ratios, interestingly, with little or no evidence of malnutrition. Behaviorally, the children exhibited varying degrees of bodily neglect, apathy, subnormal intelligence, and the inability to play. When these children from 10 families were removed from their homes and placed in the hospital, where it is assumed that a different type of interaction occurred between them and the staff than occurred in their homes, their symptoms, including the dwarfism, were reversed in most cases. While this study was focused explicitly on mothers, like so many studies of mother-infant interaction, the kind of relationship that developed could not have been made possible without either the absence of a father or other available caregiver(s). Behind many studies of negative dyadic interactions is a larger family drama. Such patterns are significantly more difficult to conceptualize and to investi-gate than the study of dyads. At the opposite end of the Ufe cycle, a study by Greene, Goldstein, and Moss (1972) of the psychosocial aspects of sudden death found that among men who developed myocardial infarction, considerable psychological distress had been evoked by circumstances in which there were departures or current disappointing conflicts between the patient and son or daughter, especially a son. Van Heijingen (1966) noted a similar pattern when he reported that rejection by a loved one frequently preceded the clinical emergence of coronary disease. Loss of social supports—particularly loss of a spouse—has been implicated over and over again in rapidly deteriorating health and, not uncommonly, death. Studies of psychosocial correlates of the onset of cancer repeatedly point to torn family relationships as high risk factors in the development of cancer. Similarly, when Parkes, Benjamin, and Fitzgerald (1969) followed the death rates of 4,486 widowers of 55 years of age and older for 9 years fol-lowing the death of their wives, they found that 213 died during the first 6 months of bereavement, 40% over the expected death rate for married men."

Abstract:
When considering how to design medical devices considering the needs of the patient and hospital staff may seem sufficient. Hospitalized infants are patients who cannot speak or advocate for their needs; the parents and the hospital staff caring for infant patients have different roles that together are integral to an infant’s recovery. Figure 1 shows how mothers, nurses, and infants form a system of care to promote infant patient healing. In particular caregiver behaviors such as kangaroo care (KC), are dependent upon the involvement of family. KC, defined as bare skin-to-skin contact between an infant and an adult caregiver, is usually done chest-to-chest. The design of wearables for the caregivers holding the infant patient can make KC easier and be part of wearable medical device design that improves infant patient outcomes.
