Abstract:

Human milk not only has nutritional value, but also provides a wide range of biologically active molecules, which are adapted to meet the needs of newborns and infants. Mother’s milk is a source of sialylated oligosaccharides and glycans that are attached to proteins and lipids, whose concentrations and composition are unique. Sialylated human milk glycoconjugates and oligosaccharides enrich the newborn immature immune system and are crucial for their proper development and well-being. Some of the milk sialylated oligosaccharide structures can locally exert biologically active effects in the newborn’s and infant’s gut. Sialylated molecules of human milk can be recognized and bound by sialic acid-dependent pathogens and inhibit their adhesion to the epithelial cells of newborns and infants. A small amount of intact sialylated oligosaccharides can be absorbed from the intestine and remain in the newborn’s circulation in concentrations high enough to modulate the immunological system at the cellular level and facilitate proper brain development during infancy. Conclusion: The review summarizes the current state of knowledge on sialylated human milk oligosaccharides and glycoconjugates, discusses the significance of sialylated structures of human milk in newborn protection and development, and presents the advantages of human milk over infant formula.

Abstract:

The interaction of mother and infant is a fundamental basis for the development of the infant. It can also determine the success of the baby in the future. About 4 out of 10 infants experience problems interacting with their parents. The NBO system was created to sensitize parents on their infant’s competencies to help them understand their infant’s behavior, and promote positive interactions between parents and their new infant. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the NBO system to improve mother-infant interactions and find out the mothers’ knowledge about their infant’s behavior when participating in this observation. This study was a cross-sectional study consisting of all the newborns and their mothers admitted to the Dr. Soetomo General Academic Hospital Surabaya from May 2019 to January 2020 who met the inclusion criteria. Mothers and infants participated in the NBO within 1-3 days after delivering their infants and one month postpartum for the second NBO. The NBO was carried out with 35 mothers and infants. The mothers’ age was on average 28.5±5.98 years old, multiparous mothers accounted for 71.4%, most infants were male (65.7%), the median gestational age was 38 weeks with the median birth weight 2900 grams. The median score of mothers’ knowledge about their infants before the NBO session was 2 (1-6). After the session, these median scores increased to 7 (5–10) significantly (p<0.001). The NBO system was significant to strengthen mother-infant interaction and increased the mothers’ knowledge about their infants’ behavior.

Abstract:

Because hearing is a key component in the infant’s development of speech, language, and cognition, early detection of infant hearing loss is critically important. The routine evaluation of hearing should include the identification of parental concerns regarding infant hearing as well as the assessment and diagnosis of infants with potential hearing impairment. Identification of hearing loss should be followed by early interventions to prevent developmental delays. This article promotes universal screening of newborn hearing. The article also provides a review of the embryogenesis of hearing and includes a breakdown of risks for hearing loss, recommendations for auditory testing, and suggestions for follow-up, early intervention, and support for families of infants with hearing impairment.

Abstract:

Neonatal encephalopathy has been defined as “a clinically defined syndrome of disturbed neurological function in the earliest days of life in the term infant, manifested by difficulty with initiating and maintaining respiration, depression of tone and reflexes, sub normal level of consciousness and often seizures”. It occurs in about 2–3 per 1000 births in developed countries. In developing countries, neonatal encephalopathy accounts for the largest number of deaths in infancy and childhood – approximately 1 million per year worldwide. Neonatal encephalopathy is associated with significant morbidity and mortality and is an important predictor of long term neurodevelopmental disability in near- and full-term newborn infants. Fifteen to 20 percent of infants with neonatal encephalopathy die in the neonatal period, and a further 25 percent have permanent neurologic deficits.

Abstract:

Abstract Advances in medical care have improved the success of medical interventions in treating high-risk and premature infants, but long-term developmental outcomes are less positive. The neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) setting influences infant brain development and organization, as well as the parent-infant relationship. One advanced-practice role for a speech-language pathologist (SLP) is that of a newborn developmental specialist (NDS). The NDS working in the NICU understands the influence of medical, environmental, and caregiving interactions on the neurologic and neurobehavioral organization of the infant. The NICU setting advanced practice skills are grounded in an individualized, developmentally supportive care model, such as the Newborn Individualized Developmental Care and Assessment Program (NIDCAP). Neurodevelopmental assessment focuses on the competence of the infant. The developmental assessment and intervention strategies are individualized to support the infant's own goal strivings. In this framework, interactions with infants become modified to increase competence and organization. The SLP working in the NICU is in a unique position to facilitate communication between the infant and the parent, as well as between the infant and professional caregivers. The SLP can help the parent interpret and respond appropriately to the infant's communication by focusing on non-verbal stress and stability cues, and by planning all interactions with a goal of co-regulation. Interactions with infants and families in this Model in the NICU have beneficial lifelong implications.

Abstract:

Background. The skin-to-skin contact (SSC) of mother and newborn is uncommon full-term newborns after delivering via cesarean section due to the possibility of hypothermia in the infants. The aim of this study was to compare mothers’ and infant’s temperatures after delivering via cesarean section.Material and Methods. In this randomized clinical trial, 90 infant/mothers dyads delivered via cesarean section were randomized to SSC (n=46) and routine care (n=44). In experimental group, skin-to-skin contact was performed for one hour and in the routine group the infant was dressed and put in the cot according to hospital routine care. The newborns’ mothers’ temperatures in both groups were taken at half-hour intervals. The data was analyzed using descriptive statistics,t-tests, and chi-square tests.Results. The means of the newborns’ temperatures immediately after SSC (P=0.86), half an hour (P=0.31), and one hour (P=0.52) after the intervention did not show statistically significant differences between the two groups. The mean scores of the infants’ breastfeeding assessment in SSC (8.76±3.63) and routine care (7.25±3.5) groups did not show significant differences (P=0.048).Conclusion. Mother and infant’s skin-to-skin contact is possible after delivering via cesarean section and does not increase the risk of hypothermia.

Abstract:

AbstractNewborn characteristics, patterns of motoric and social behavioural development, and mother-infant relationships in free-ranging and semi-provisioned bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops sp.) are examined. Nine newborns were observed for 189 hours over the first 10 weeks of life. Newborn infants breathe more often than their mothers, and synchronize their breathing and swimming with her soon after birth, but show a gradual decline in synchrony as they age. Virtually all patterns of infant behaviour, mother-infant proximity, and spatial relationships with the mother changed as a function of infant age. Maternal activity, however, does not change over time, except that mothers decrease their role in maintaining proximity to their infants from the first month to the second month of infant life. Infants spend less time close to their mothers, less time echelon swimming (close, alongside the mother), and more time infant-position swimming (in contact under the mother) as they age. Infants spend more time traveling and socializing independently over time. They also separate from their mothers more often and for longer periods of time. Infants do not forage during the newborn period, but are observed 'practice foraging' by the end of the first month. Rubbing, petting, chasing, and displaying with other animals (including the mother) were common forms of socializing. Infants frequently initiate rubbing with their mothers, with particular focus on her head region. Infants typically associate with young females, adult females and other infants, but not with adult or subadult males. Developmental shifts and overall patterns are discussed in the context of the bottlenose dolphin's fission-fusion social organization and ecology. The effects of provisioning on dolphin behaviour are addressed.

Abstract:

Objective Previous small-scale studies suggest that maternal smoking lowers neonatal body iron. Our objective was to study and compare the relationship between maternal and infants’ body iron in smokers and non-smokers in a large matched-pair cohort. Method This was a prospective cohort study involving 144 mothers – 72 smokers and 72 non-smokers and their respective infants. Samples were obtained from maternal blood and infants’ cord blood at delivery for serum transferrin receptor (sTfR) and ferritin levels. Serum TfR and ferritin levels were measured by RAMCO ELISA and RIA assays. The total body iron (TBI) was calculated using the sTfR/ferritin ratio. Results Maternal total body iron and smoking status Women who smoked had lower sTfR, higher ferritin and higher body iron compared to nonsmoking women. Infant’s total body iron, measurements at birth and smoking status In contrast to their respective mothers, we found a small but statistically significant negative correlation between smoking and infants’ total body iron. The number of PPD smoked was negatively correlated with infants’ ferritin and total body iron. The number of days smoked during pregnancy was also negatively correlated with infants’ ferritin and total body iron and positively correlated with infants' sTfR. Birth weight was lower in babies of smokers compared to nonsmokers (mean /- SD =3270 +/-475 vs. 3393 g +/- 475 g, p=0.03). Correlation studies revealed that birth weight in infants of smokers was negatively correlated with PPD smoked and number of days smoked. Birth length in the same infants was also negatively correlated with PPD smoked and number of days smoked. Conclusion Mothers who smoked during pregnancy had higher iron stores but their newborn infants had lower iron stores than those of non-smoking mothers. There may be a negative dose-dependent response between fetal smoke exposure and infant iron stores. Disclosures: No relevant conflicts of interest to declare.

Abstract:

We have compared the ability of 49 primiparous and 75 multiparous women to recognize photographs of their newborn infants. In line with previous research on infant cries, we found that multiparous women who had been with their infant 0.5 to 5.0 hr. were significantly more successful in recognizing their infants' photographs than primiparous women with comparable exposure to their newborns. For women who had not been with their infants more than 5 hr., parity was not related to recognition. We propose that the transient performance deficit of the primiparous women indicates a short-lived impairment of perceptual/cognitive skills associated with their more stressful childbearing experience.

Abstract:

Breast milk contains immunomodulating components that are beneficial to newborns during maturation of their immune system. Human breast milk composition is influenced by an infant’s gestational and chronological age, lactation stage, and the mother and infant’s health status. Major immunologic components in human milk, such as secretory immunoglobulin A (IgA) and growth factors, have a known role in regulating gut barrier integrity and microbial colonization, which therefore protect against the development of a life-threatening gastrointestinal illness affecting newborn infants called necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC). Breast milk is a known protective factor in the prevention of NEC when compared with feeding with commercial formula. Breast milk supplements infants with human milk oligosaccharides, leukocytes, cytokines, nitric oxide, and growth factors that attenuate inflammatory responses and provide immunological defenses to reduce the incidence of NEC. This article aims to review the variety of immunomodulating components in breast milk that protect the infant from the development of NEC.

Abstract:

This research was designed to assess 7-week-old infants' preference for infant directed and adult directed talk. (IDT and ADT) using the infant controlled habituation/dishabituation looking procedure. Infants were presented with short audio recordings of either a female or a male speaking in IDT during habituation and ADT during dishabituation or the reverse. In the control conditions, the stimulus did not change. Infants demonstrated preference for IDT over ADT in both male and female speaker conditions. They also demonstrated preference for the female speaker used in this study over the male speaker. Interactions among the dependent variables (first three looks), and the independent variables (infant gender, and style of speaking as well as infant gender, and speaker gender), suggest that the preference might not be as robust as the preference found in infants over 4 months. Evidence for discrimination between IDT and ADT was inferred from the between group demonstration of preference, but no evidence of within infant discrimination was found. Because the evidence suggests that 7-week-old infants demonstrate weaker preference for IDT over ADT than do infants of 4 months, it is assumed that infant preferences follow a developmental sequence. Thus, it is possible that developing preferences are influenced by experiential factors.

Full text

Abstract:

Introduction: It is well documented that preterm infants are less developed than term infants at term age and infants with IUGR are said to be of higher vulnerability. Fractional Anisotropy (FA) and Apparent Diffusion Coefficient (ADC) are sensitive to micro structural abnormalities and increases in anisotropy associated with premyelination are the earliest indications of the beginning processes of myelination. Furthermore reductions in brain volumes have been found in preterm infants compared to controls and IUGR infants. Thyroxine (T4) is necessary for normal growth and development of the central nervous system. Infants born preterm miss out on the maternal transfer of T4 that occurs during the third trimester and are born with an underdeveloped thyroid gland that is not yet producing sufficient amounts of T4. Method: Sixty nine infants (51 preterm, 9 IUGR and 9 controls) were imaged on a 1.5 Telsa MRI Scanner. DTI analysis was performed using medical imaging software (DTIstudio). FA and ADC maps were used to draw regions of interest around the posterior limb of the internal capsule (PLIC), corpus callosum (CC), frontal lobes (FL) and occipital lobes (OL). The software Brain Voyager QX (version 1.9.10) was used for image realignment and demarcation of T2 Weighted images and the images were analysed using medical imaging software for structure- specific brain volume measurements (Easymeasure). Statistical analysis was conducted with repeated measures ANOVA using SPSS version 18. Results: A significant interaction when investigating anterior vs. posterior structures and laterality of structures with treatment in the frontal lobes and posterior limb of the internal capsule was found suggesting a group difference between infants treated with levothyroxine and those receiving placebo. IUGR infants generally had lower FA and ADC than the control group. Generally lower structural volumes were found in the placebo and IUGR group. Conclusion: Administration of levothyroxine affects the structures on different sides of the brain differently and raises structural volumes. Levothyroxine may be of particular benefit to infants with low levels of thyroxine in their blood (hypothyroxinemia) and male preterm infants. Preterm infants born with intrauterine growth restriction are of higher vulnerability than appropriate for gestational age preterm infants with lower FA, higher ADC and lower structural volumes. Further research is required to fully explore asymmetries in the preterm and IUGR brain and should look at administering levothyroxine to infants with low levels of thyroxine in their blood.

Abstract:

The objective of this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was to determine whether glucose enhanced memory for a repeated auditory stimulus in human newborns. Infants consumed water or glucose (2-g/kg) solution. Memory test phases were: Orientation (turning towards the stimulus); Habituation (not turning towards), indicating familiarity; Delay (100 seconds); Spontaneous Recovery (stimulus representation: not turning towards indicates remembering, while turning towards indicates forgetting), and Novelty (turning towards a different word confirms wakefulness). Decreased head-turning towards during Spontaneous Recovery indicates enhanced memory. Blood glucose levels were measured after testing.
"Glucose" infants had higher blood glucose levels than "water" infants (p < 0.001). "Glucose" infants had significantly decreased turns towards during Spontaneous Recovery compared to "water" infants (p = 0.008), indicating memory enhancement.
Therefore, glucose specifically enhances memory for a repeated auditory stimulus in newborn humans. Elevating blood glucose levels by approximately 2 mmol/L appears to be sufficient for memory enhancement in healthy newborns.

Abstract:

This study explored infants' immediate and residual responses to holding and rocking, and how these responses relate to previously proposed mechanisms to explain long term benefits found when infants are repeatedly exposed to tactile and vestibular stimulation. This form of stimulation has been proposed to increase infants' ability to control and organize l) their behavioral state, 2) their arousal and autonomic functioning, or 3) that there is no clear relationship between immediate responses and long term benefits. Behavioral state and heart rate were collected on 40 infants who were randomly assigned to either a control group where infants were briefly repositioned twice but otherwise lay undisturbed for 90 minutes or an experimental group where infants were held and rocked for 30 minutes during the middle of a 90-minute observation. Results of analyses showed that, when infants were held and rocked they 1) displayed a lower Heart Rate Mean and Standard Deviation, 2) displayed a lower Mean Heart Rate During Active Sleep, 3) spent less time in a FussCry State, 3) were less likely to cry continuously, and 4) displayed nominally Smoother State Transitions and greater Stability Within States. Following the cessation of the rocking stimulus infants in the Experimental Group l) displayed a lower Mean Heart Rate, 2) displayed a lower Mean Heart Rate while in a Quiet Alert State, 3) were more likely to spend some time in a Quiet Sleep State, and 4) were less likely to cry continuously. In addition, all infants displayed Smoother State Transitions and greater Stability Within States during the first 30 minutes than during the final 30 minutes of the observation. Finally, across the 90-minute observation, the infants who were not rocked spent progressively more time in a Quiet Alert State, whereas infants who were rocked spent less time in a Quiet Alert State. The results were the most consistent with the hypothesis that the mechanism leading to both the immediate and residual effects of the stimulation was an increase in control and organization of infants’ arousal and autonomic functioning.

Abstract:

A cohort study was performed to determine the postnatal development of the coagulation system in the “healthy” premature infant. Mothers were approached for consent and a total of 132 premature infants were entered into the study. The group consisted of 64 infants with gestational ages of 34-36 weeks (prem 1) and 68 infants whose gestational age was 33 weeks or less (prem 2). Demographic information and a 2 ml blood sample were obtained on days 1, 5, 30, 90, and 180. Plasma was fractionated and stored at −70°C for batch assaying of the following tests: screening tests, PT, APTT; factor assays (biologic (B)); fibrinogen, II, V, VII, VIII:C, IX, X, XI, XII, prekallikrein, high molecular weight kininogen, XIII (immunologic (I)); inhibitors (I), antithrombin III, aα2-antiplasmin, α2-macroglobulin, α-anti-trypsin, Cl esterase inhibitor, protein C, protein S, and the fibrinolytic system (B); plasminogen. We have previously reported an identical study for 118 full term infants. The large number of premature and full term infants studied at varying time points allowed us to determine the following: 1) coagulation tests vary with the gestational age and postnatal age of the infant; 2) each factor has a unique postnatal pattern of maturation; 3) near adult values are achieved by 6 months of age; 4) premature infants have a more rapid postnatal development of the coagulation system compared to the full term infant; and 5) the range of reference values for two age groups of premature infants has been established for each of the assays. These reference values will provide a basis for future investigation of specific hemorrhagic and thrombotic problems in the newborn infant.

Abstract:

The newborn infant has a physiologically low level of protein C which rises very slowly in postnatal life. The frequency and significance of severe neonatal protein C deficiency has not been reported. In this study, protein C levels were measured in 110 newborn infants at the time of birth using functional (amidolytic, Cact) and immunologic (Laurell rocket, Cag) assays. The protein C levels were compared with a marker of thrombin activation (D-dimer fragment of fibrin, +D-D) and infants were subsequently followed for signs and symptoms of thrombosis. Results are summarized below (protein C levels are expressed as U/ml).Thirteen infants had protein C levels compatible with the homozygous deficiency state. Extremely low levels of protein C (<0.20 U/ml) were not found in well term infants and were rarely noted in stable preterm infants. D-D were infrequently present and no thrombosis occurred. Near term infants born with fetal distress frequently showed +D-D but rarely demonstrated extremely low levels of protein C. None of these infants required indwelling arterial catheters and no thromboses occurred. Preterm infants with severe respiratory distress showed lower protein C levels at birth (p <0.01). Although 71% had +D-D, thromboses in these infants were all related to invasive catheterizations. In contrast, the study population of twins demonstrated a high frequency of severe protein C deficiency with negative D-D and frequent thromboses, three of which occurred in the absence of instrumentation. In summary, severe protein C deficiency and thrombin activation are common in sick preterm infants with the risk of thrombosis increased by intravascular catheterization. In contrast, twins with severe protein C deficiency may manifest a thrombotic risk which is independent of thrombin activation or catheterization.

Abstract:

Plasma levels of vitamin K (VK) and VK dependent proteins ( factor E, factor VH, factor X, protein C and osteocalcin)were determined before and after VK administration to 22 newborn infants. Vitamin K2 syrup ( 2 mg/kg of body weight ) was orally administered to 9 healthy premature, 11 high risk and 2 VK deficient infants under 3 days of age. VK families extracted from plasma were separated by high performance liquid chromatography using a Cosmosil 5 Ci8 column, and separated VK families were detected by a fluorometry after their reaction with ethanolic sodium borohydride in a reaction coil connected by one-line to a chromatographic column. Total activity of factor E, factor VE and factor X was assayed by a Normotest ( Nyegaard ), and protein C was measured by protac/APTT and protac/chromogenic substrate ( S-2366 ) functional assay system ( American Diagnostica ). Osteocalcin levels were assayed by using of a RIA method before and after the absorption of plasma by hydroxyapatite.After VK administration, plasma VK2 ( menaquinone-4 ) content increased from levels less than 0.012yg/ml to levels between 15.9 and 70.9μg/ml, excluding one case in whom plasma VK was not detected after VK administration. Compared with Normotest values and osteocalcin levels of age-matched healthy newborn infants treated without VK, premature, high risk and VK deficient infant levels significantly increased after 24 hrs and after 7 days of VK administration. No correlation was seen between the increase of plasma VK contents and the increase of Normotest values after VK administration. On the other hand, no significant increase of protein C assayed by both methods was observed in healthy premature and high risk infants after VK administration.These results indicate that the change of protein C after VK treatment is different from that of factor II, VII, X and osteocalcin.

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:

A sensitive and specific method for the determination of phylloquinone (PK) and menaquinone families (MK-n), between MK-4 and MK-10, was developed. Vitamin K (VK) was extracted from serum and feces with n-hexane-ether, and purified with silica gel column and short alumina column. Eluted VK was separated by high performance liquid chromatography using Cosmosil 5 Cie column with ethanol-water as a mobile phase. The separated VK was detected by a fluorometry after its reaction with ethanolic sodium boro-hydride in a reaction coil connected by one-line to a chromatographic column. Minimum detectable quantities of PK, MK-4 and MK-7 were 0.1, 0.1 and 0.15 ng/ml, respectively.In normal adult serum, PK, MK-4, MK-5, MK-6, MK-7 and MK-8 were detected. The meaniSD values of PK and MK-n from normal adult serum were 3.0±1.4 (PK), 0.3±0.2 (MK-4), 0.9±0.4 (MK-5), 0.3 ±0.3 (MK-6), 3.8±1.4 (MK-7) and 0.3±0.2 (MK-8)ng/ml, respectively. On the other hand, VK was not detected in 19 umbilical blood samples, excluding 3 samples in which 0.7, 1.0 and 2.5 ng/ml of PK were detected. In 7 healthy newborn infants under 8 days of age, VK was not detected excluding 3 cases. Of these 3 cases, in one case, 3.16 ng/ml of PK was detected, and in the other two cases, 1.1 and 1.5 ng/ml of MK-7 were detected. In 11 infants at one month of age, PK ( 10 cases ) and MK-7 ( 5 cases ) were detected, and mean+SD values of PK and MK-7 in the detected group were 0.55±0.44 and 0.62±0.18 ng/ml, respectively. VK was not detected in plasma of infants with primary hemorrhagic disease of the newborn ( 4 cases ) and infantile vitamin K deficiency ( 2 cases ). With a wide variation of VK content in each samlpe, PK and all MK families were detected in feces from normal adults. On the other hand, only PK and MK-7 were detected in meconium collected from 6 normal newborn infants before initial feeding. The contents of VK in meconium were less than one percent of those in adult feces. These results indicate that VK supply from maternal side in utero and from intestinal flora after birth is very poor in newborn infants.

Abstract:

Protein C (PC) deficiency associated with hereditary venous thromboembolic disease was first reported in 1981 and is inherited as an autosomal dominant disorder. The prevalence of heterozygous PC deficiency is estimated to be 1 to 4% in venous thrombotic diseases. The homozygous PC deficiency is even rare, and has been reported in only about 10 families througout the world. It usually presents in newborn infants as purpura fulminans or severe thrombotic disease. We herein report two newborn brothers in a Chinese family, who manifested with purpura fulminans soon after birth and died at age of 21 days and 27 days respectively. Vitamin K was administered to the second baby after birth. Both parents are not consanguineous and there were no family histories of thromboembolism on paternal and maternal sides. Blood sample was not available for specific studies in the first baby. PC antigen level by electroimmunoassay was <6% in the second baby and 49% and 60% respectively in their mother and father. Antithrombin III activity by amidolytic method was 49% in the second baby, and 90% and 97% respectively in their mother and father. Vitamin K-dependent coagulation factors and factor V were within the expected range for a newborn. Factor VIII and fibrinogen level were notably decreased. Autopsy findings of the two newborns demonstrated the similar pictures characterized by fibrin thrombi in blood vessels causing extensive hemorrhagic infarts of skin, lung, liver, kidneys, testis, urinary bladder, esophagus and brain. Our Data indicate that neonatal purpura fulminans can be familial and caused by severe homozygous PC deficiency.

Abstract:

We describe the completeness of prenatal data in maternal delivery records and the prevalence of selected medical conditions and complications among patients delivering at community hospitals around Atlanta, Georgia. Medical charts for 199 maternal-infant dyads (99 infants in normal newborn nurseries and 104 infants in newborn intensive care nurseries) were identified by medical records staff at 9 hospitals and abstracted on site. Ninety-eight percent of hospital charts included prenatal records, but over 20 percent were missing results for common laboratory tests and prenatal procedures. Forty-nine percent of women had a pre-existing medical condition, 64 percent had a prenatal complication, and 63 percent had a labor or delivery complication. Missing prenatal information limits the usefulness of these records for research and may result in unnecessary tests or procedures or inappropriate medical care.

Abstract:

Medical treatment and care for preterm and sick newborn babies in European countries varies greatly. Significant differences are not only limited to the survival rates of such infants. In some European countries, preterm birth is also more commonly associated with chronic physical and mental disability than in others. This effect is exacerbated by the fact that in some parts of Europe, further assistance to these vulnerable children after discharge from the hospital (follow-up and early intervention) is not structured or even does not exist at all. Given the high level of inequality in health care delivery, agreed definitions and clear recommendations for infrastructure, medical processes, care procedures, and staffing capabilities are needed to compare and adjust the conditions of care in Europe. Therefore, there is an absolute need to ensure that high-level care is equally available throughout and for everyone. European standards of care for newborn health, developed on the initiative and under the project of the European Foundation for the Care of Newborn Infants (EFCNI), will help to overcome differences in clinical practice, structure and organization of care, as well as training of healthcare professionals. This publication presents the part of the standards regarding health care for preterm and sick infants.

Repositioning post partum care in Kenya. Population Council, 2005. http://dx.doi.org/10.31899/rh16.1013.

Abstract:

In Kenya, although 45 percent of maternal deaths occur within the first 24 hours after childbirth and 65 percent of maternal deaths occur during the first week postpartum, health-care providers continue to advise on a first check-up six weeks after childbirth. The early postpartum period is also critical to newborn survival, with 50–70 percent of life-threatening newborn illnesses occurring in the first week. Yet most strategies to reduce maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality have focused on pregnancy and birth. In addition to the heavy workload of providers who do not assess the mother post-delivery when she may bring her infant for immunization, lack of knowledge, poverty, cultural beliefs and practices perpetuate the problem. The only register that exists for mothers post-delivery is for family planning, thus perpetuating the lack of emphasis on the early postpartum period with no standardized register to record care given. To address this gap in service delivery, the Population Council defined the minimal services a mother and baby should receive from a skilled attendant after birth. As stated in this brief, the development of a standardized postpartum register is one step toward advocating for providing early postpartum care among health-service providers.
