Abstract:
One of the roles of the pediatric otolaryngologist in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) is the assessment and management of the neonate who fails a trial of extubation. This paper reviews the recent 5-year institutional experience at The Hospital for Sick Children, Toronto, with neonates who failed extubation and who subsequently underwent diagnostic endoscopy. One hundred twenty-eight neonates from the NICU underwent diagnostic endoscopy. Of these, 58 neonates underwent diagnostic endoscopy for failure to extubate. Nine neonates were extubated after diagnostic endoscopy and retrial (16% of the series). Eleven neonates were extubated after additional endoscopic procedures (19% of the series). Twenty-four neonates underwent anterior cricoid split, of whom 20 or 83% (34% of the series) were eventually successfully extubated with no further airway intervention required during the study period (minimum 6 months' follow-up). Eleven neonates underwent tracheotomy (19% of the series). Four neonates underwent another external procedure to allow extubation (7% of the series). Three neonates died while still intubated (5% of the series). Our management of the neonate who fails a trial of extubation is discussed.

Abstract:
Neonatal transport is associated with complications, more so in sick and unstable neonates who need immediate emergency surgery. To circumvent these problems, surgery in Neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) is proposed for these neonates. This article reviews the literature regarding feasibility of this novel concept and based on the generated evidence, suggest the NICU planners to always include infrastructure for this. Also neonatal surgical team can be developed that could be transported.

Abstract:
Ethiopia has a high neonatal mortality rate in spite of dearth of study. Therefore we aimed to assess magnitude and associated factors of neonatal mortality among neonates admitted to neonatal intensive care units of Wollega University Referral Hospital. Accordingly, a facility based cross-sectional study was conducted on 289 by reviewing medical records of neonates admitted to neonatal intensive care unit. The collected data were entered in to Epi data version 3.1 and Stata version 14 used for analysis. Variables with P-value < 0.25 at with 95% confidence interval in binary logistic regression analysis were taken to the multiple logistic regression analysis. Finally, variables with Likewise, variable with P-value < 0.05 at 95% confidence interval in multiple logistic regression analysis were considered as statistically significant. Among 289 neonates admitted to neonatal intensive care unit, 53 (18.34 %) were died. Majority 42(79.25%) of those deaths occurred at ≤ 7 days of birth. Preterm [AOR 4.15, 95% CI (1.67-10.33)], neonates faced birth asphyxia [AOR 3.26, 95% CI (1.33-7.98)], neonates who developed sepsis [AOR 2.29 95% CI (1.01-5.20)] and neonates encountered with jaundice [(AOR 11.08, 95% CI (1.03-119.59)] were more at risk to die. In general, the magnitude of neonatal mortality among neonates admitted to neonatal intensive care unit was high. Gestational age (maturity of new born), birth asphyxia, neonatal sepsis and neonatal jaundice were predictors of neonatal mortality. Neonates admitted to neonatal intensive care unit with sepsis, jaundice, and birth asphyxia demand special attention to reduce neonatal mortality.

Abstract:
Kangaroo care (KC) is a cost-efficient method to increase infant-parent bonding and neonatal health outcomes worldwide. Despite evidence supporting KC in critically ill infants, nursing perceptions regarding patient safety and interrupted work flow continued to impede practice in the local high-tech neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Their current policy failed to address the 2-person transfer method recommended for safe practice. In addition, both staff and parents lacked training and education regarding the benefits and feasibility of KC. This doctoral project aimed to decrease practice barriers and promote earlier and more frequent KC by developing and integrating an evidence-based clinical pathway within a multifaceted champion-based simulated educational training program for NICU staff and parents. Published outcomes and generated organizational data for program synthesis connected the gap in practice. Kolcaba's comfort theory served as the guiding framework to ensure a partnership in care. This quasi-experimental quantitative study used the generalized liner model for data analysis. Study findings indicated that KC occurred 2.4 more times after the intervention compared to before (p = 0.001). Descriptive data revealed that KC episodes for intubated patients nearly doubled after implementation (11.1% from 6.2%). Post-survey scores for nursing knowledge and comfort level also improved after the intervention. Although earlier KC practice was non-conclusive (p = 0.082), future trials should control groups for day of life since admission. Disseminating the KC pathway can have a positive social change on family-centered care by increasing NICU nurses' knowledge, comfort, and adoption of this evidence-based practice as an expected routine standard of care.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to describe the phenomenon of maternal attachment as it specifically relates to moderate premature delivery. The study investigated the impact of educational, counseling and therapeutic interventions on mothers who delivered premature infants. Research hypotheses were that mothers who participated in the treatment group would demonstrate significant increases in the independent variables of self esteem, social networking and family function strategies. This study also hypothesized that there would be a significant positive relationship between treatment and the dependent variable of maternal attachment. The sample consisted of 30 mother-infant dyads between the ages of 15 and 38 years of age. Infants' gestational age ranged from 32 to 36 weeks. Data were gathered using three measures: (1) a demographic profile of the subjects; (2) a questionnaire including the Tennessee Self Concept Scale, Sarason's Life Event Survey, Norbeck's Social Support Questionnaire, Feetham's Family Function Index; and (3) Barnard's Nursing Child Assessment Feeding Scale (NCAFS). The research study consisted of a field experiment. Fifteen subjects were assigned to the experimental and control group via a modified randomized block procedure. A questionnaire was issued during infant's hospitalization and at 4 months post infant discharge from the hospital to measure the independent variable. The dependent variable was measured at 1 month, 2-1/2 months and 4 months using the NCAFS. Treatment consisted of a minimum of seven sessions during the infant's hospitalization and discharge to home. Statistical analyses were conducted in the form of frequency distributions, means, standard deviations, t-tests and correlation scores. Stepwise multiple regression techniques were used for predictor variables. Results indicated that mothers who participated in the treatment group demonstrated significantly improved maternal attachment processes than those mothers who did not receive intervention. The results did not indicate that there was a significant difference between the two groups on self esteem, social support, life events or family function. Implications for the study were noted. Recommendations for medical and mental health practitioners and future areas of research were discussed.

Abstract:
The literature review highlighted the continuing problem of hospital acquired infection. This study examined this problem in depth, in a high-risk area, the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. A multi-centre study was conducted using multi-methods in order to capture data regarding nurses' infection control practices in neonatal units. Ninety nurses/ nursery nurses from six neonatal units were included in the study. Non-participant observation was used to investigate nurses' existing infection control practices, interviews were used to explore nurses' opinions of infection control, questionnaires were used to collect demographic data about the sample and assess nurses' knowledge of infection control issues and a Likert-type scale was developed to investigate the unit atmosphere/environment. Microbiological laboratory work was undertaken to compare the efficacies of three products (soap, alcohol hand rub and chlorhexidine) at removing/reducing the numbers of bacteria found on the hands. The effectiveness of gloves at preventing contamination of the hands was also assessed. Finally, the numbers of bacteria recovered from the hands of university administrative staff and nurses were compared to determine whether or not nurses had higher numbers of bacteria on their hands due to the number of organisms they are exposed to and their increased frequency of hand hygiene. Overall, nurses' hand hygiene practices were found to be relatively poor. However, there was some evidence that length of shift, as a proxy indicator of fatigue, and unit atmosphere/environment may influence nurses' infection control practices. Opinions and knowledge were not associated with observed practice. Nursery nurses had lower hand hygiene scores and knowledge scores than nurses and increased experience in the neonatal unit was associated with increased infection control knowledge. The number of bacteria recovered from the hands of nurses was significantly higher than the numbers of bacteria recovered from the hands of administrative staff. In the clinical setting, chlorhexidine was found to be the only product that consistently removed significant numbers of bacteria from the hands. Indeed, the alcohol hand rub was found to increase the numbers of bacteria on the hands. The number of bacteria recovered from the hands did not differ when gloves were worn. This suggests the inside of gloves may be providing a medium for the multiplication of bacteria. However, the number of bacteria recovered from the surface of used gloves was significantly lower than the numbers of bacteria recovered from nurses' hands after nursing activities. The use of gloves for all procedures on the neonatal unit may be advantageous.

Abstract:
Alarm fatigue is a practice problem that applies to hospitalized patients and the nurses who care for them. Addressing alarm fatigue is important to promote alarm safety and to decrease the risk of patient harm or death. The purpose of this study was to decrease alarm fatigue and improve alarm safety in a regional neonatal intensive care unit (RNICU). Guided by the conceptual model for alarm fatigue and alarm safety, this study addressed whether or not alarm management protocols designed to decrease false and nuisance alarms in the physiological monitoring of neonates improve alarm safety via decreased alarm burden and alarm fatigue as evidenced by statistically significant reductions in false and nuisance alarms. A quantitative, time series quasi-experimental design was used with 4 waves of data collection. One wave was baseline data collected preintervention, and 3 waves of data were postprotocol implementation to obtain an initial indication of sustainability. Alarm observation data collection sheets were developed and used to track numbers and types of alarms pre- and post-protocol implementation. The data analysis showed statistically significant decreases in both false alarms and nuisance alarms related to the physiological monitoring protocol and lead changing protocol. Overall, high protocol adherence was noted, and the total number of alarms per hour per bed was reduced by 42% (p < .001), 46% (p < .001), and 50% (p < .001) from baseline at Weeks 2, 4, and 6, respectively. Implications from this study include impact on practice and policy, direction for future study, and a call for social change to promote alarm safety in the care of neonates.

Hospitalization of the newborn is necessary when health conditions require immediate assistance for their recovery. Humanized actions in the neonatal unit have been developed in order to make it less painful separation parent-child when it needs technological support and team of trained professionals. It was aimed to analyze the perception and knowledge of the nursing team on the promotion of humanized care for newborn in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit . It is a qualitative study conducted in a public hospital, large, tertiary level, in Fortaleza, Brazil, in the months October and November 2015, after approval by the Research Ethics Committee, under Protocol N. 1,191,339. The subjects were 14 nurses and 20 nursing technicians working in neonatal care. The data collected through semi-structured interviews consist identification data and five guiding issues that permeate the knowledge of the nursing team about the care and promotion of humanized care in the UTIN. In addition, we used no-participant observation and field diary. For analysis, we sought to Bardin technique that extracted the three categories lines: âTaking care of the human personâ, ânursing contributions to the humane careâ and âFactors that affect the quality of humanized care.â The results showed that the nursing team understands humanization as an indispensable element for the comprehensive care to the baby and family, which was observed from the speeches of welcome, restoring health and disease of the newborn process. The professionals had knowledge of the humanized care, played their actions conscious, oriented and appreciative way about the quality of neonatal care and parents who face the challenges inherent in the admission process. We conclude that the performance of these professionals permeates compliance with the regulations of the National Humanization Policy regarding humanized care to the newborn, family and neonatal ambience. It is believed that such actions minimize the impact caused by the characteristics of the disease treatment as well as stressors.

As aÃÃes humanizadas na unidade neonatal tÃm sido desenvolvidas, a fim de tornar menos dolorosa à separaÃÃo pais-filho, quando este necessita de suporte tecnolÃgico e equipe de profissionais capacitados. Objetivou-se analisar a percepÃÃo e conhecimentos da equipe de enfermagem sobre a promoÃÃo do cuidado humanizado ao recÃm-nascido internado na Unidade de Terapia Intensiva Neonatal (UTIN). Trata-se de estudo qualitativo, realizado em hospital pÃblico, de grande porte, nÃvel terciÃrio, em Fortaleza-CE-Brasil, nos meses outubro e novembro de 2015, apÃs aprovaÃÃo pelo Comità de Ãtica em Pesquisa, sob Protocolo n 1.191.339. Os sujeitos foram 14 enfermeiros e 20 tÃcnicos de enfermagem atuantes na assistÃncia ao neonato. Os dados coletados, por meio de entrevista semiestruturada, consistem dados de identificaÃÃo e cinco questÃes norteadoras, que permeiam o conhecimento da equipe de enfermagem acerca do cuidado e a promoÃÃo da assistÃncia humanizada na UTIN. Ademais, utilizou-se observaÃÃo nÃo participante e diÃrio de campo. Para anÃlise, sÃntese e descriÃÃo, buscou-se a tÃcnica de Bardin, que se extraÃram das falas trÃs categorias: âCuidar do ser humanoâ, âContribuiÃÃes de enfermagem para o cuidado humanizadoâ e âFatores que interferem na qualidade do cuidado humanizadoâ. Os resultados revelaram que a equipe de enfermagem compreende a humanizaÃÃo como elemento indispensÃvel para o cuidado integral ao bebà e famÃlia, o que se observou desde as intervenÃÃes de acolhimento, ao restabelecimento do processo saÃde-doenÃa do neonato. Os profissionais apresentaram conhecimentos acerca do cuidado humanizado, desempenharam suas aÃÃes de forma consciente, orientada e sensibilizada, quanto à qualidade da assistÃncia ao neonato e aos pais que enfrentam os desafios inerentes ao processo de internaÃÃo. Percebe-se, portanto, que a atuaÃÃo desses profissionais permeia o cumprimento aos regulamentos da PolÃtica Nacional de HumanizaÃÃo. Conclui-se que o cuidado humanizado aplicado nessa ambiÃncia à essencial ao recÃm-nascido e famÃlia, uma vez que minimiza o impacto causado pelas caracterÃsticas da doenÃa, tratamento, bem como os fatores estressantes da UTIN.

Abstract:
Hospital treatment environments have become a major concern in recent years. Noise and illumination are potential stress sources in hospitals. The purpose ofthis study was to examine the effects of hospital noise levels and ambient illumination on newborn infants (neonates). Noise levels and lighting were varied and the effect upon neonatal heart rate, respiration rate, blood pressure, and oxygen consumption were measured. These measures are sensitive tosympathetic nervous system reactivity such as that brought about by stressful environments. In addition, noise and lighting levels were measured to determine if differences existed across conditions. Psychophysiological responses to various noise and lighting levels varied within and across neonates with some changes in the expected direction. Some unexpected results of Quiet Time were noted among neonatal intensive care staff and hospital personnel.

Abstract:
Neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS) is a public health concern that is increasing in the United States due to the use of illicit drugs by pregnant women, which exposes the fetus to these substances. NAS results in increased infant morbidity and prolonged stay in the hospital, which can lead to increased cost of care. The inability of the nurses to care for at-risk infants can lead to inconsistent NAS scores, which can affect the infant's care treatment. The project examined the effectiveness of educating the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) nurses on the correct use of the modified Finnegan Neonatal Abstinence Tool (FNAST) and implementing a practice protocol in the management of infants experiencing NAS, thereby reducing inconsistencies in NAS scores. Implementing clinical guidelines and proper use of the modified FNAST can lead to early intervention and treatment of infants exhibiting withdrawal symptoms. An educational session was conducted, pretests and posttests were used to evaluate the NICU nurses' baseline knowledge of the correct use of the modified FNAST and their acquired knowledge after the educational intervention on the correct use of the modified FNAST. The goal of the project was met with the NICU nurses experiencing knowledge gain evidenced by a 30% increase between the pretests and posttests and obtaining consistent NAS scores by applying the correct technique of scoring. The mastery of the use of the modified FNAST brought about social change by impacting positive attitudes and behaviors among the NICU nurses and enhancing collaboration between the physicians and nurses.

Abstract:
Thesis (MScMedSc (Interdisciplinary Health Sciences. Speech-Language and Hearing Therapy))--University of Stellenbosch, 2007.
Noise is a noxious stimulus with possible negative physiological effects on the infant, especially in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). The present study conducted a detailed noise assessment in a NICU of a state hospital in the Cape Metropole and documented 6 infants’ physiological responses to noise levels. Noise levels ranged from 62.3-66.7dBA (LAeq), which exceed all American and British standards (50dBA -60dBA) for a NICU. Continuous exposure to noise of these levels is potentially harmful to the infants’ auditory system and health stability. The general well-being of the staff working in the NICU may also be compromised. Analysis of the noise events revealed that staff conversations were the largest single contributor to the number of noise events, while the largest single non-human contributor was the alarm noise of the monitors. No significant correlations were found between the heart rates and noise levels and the respiratory rates and the noise levels for any of the participants in either room. The NICU was found to be an extremely reverberant environment, which suggested that the NICU noise levels were largely a result of reverberant noise reinforcements. NICU nursing staff’s most common suggestion for noise abatement strategies was reduction of staff conversation. Results of this study highlight the need for NICU noise abatement to optimise newborn patient care, reduce the risk of acoustic trauma and to improve the neonate’s quality of life, thus enhancing the infant’s physiologic stability, growth and health.

Abstract:
The psychometric properties of this Parental Stressor Scale: Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (PSS:NICU) were assessed, before using the scale to describe stress experienced by parents in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). The extent to which parental stress from the parent-infant relationship in the unit was linked to parenting they received as a child, and adjustment to their couple relationship, was also examined. The sample consisted of 182 mothers and 183 fathers, who were in a cohabitating relationship, of infants from the NICU at Christchurch Women's Hospital. The self-report questionnaires included the PSS:NICU, Parental Bonding Instrument, and the Dyadic Adjustment Scale, and were administered to parents within 2-3 weeks of their infant's birth. This study extends the finding of satisfactory psychometric properties of the PSS:NICU (Franck, Cox, Allen & Winter, 2005; Miles, Funk & Carlson, 1993; Reid & Bramwell, 2003) to this New Zealand sample. Mothers experienced significantly higher stress from the unit compared to fathers (p < .01). A previous finding, for mothers, of the parent-infant relationship being the most stressful aspect of the unit (Franck et al., 2005; Reid & Bramwell, 2003; Shields-Poe & Pinelli, 1997) extends to the New Zealand sample. The most stressful aspect of the unit for fathers was sights and sounds. Lack of evidence was found for associations between parental stress from the parent-infant relationship in the unit and parenting received as a child, or adjustment to their couple relationship. A weak but significant negative correlation was, however, found between stress from the mother-infant relationship and maternal care received in childhood. It is unnecessary to provide all parents with intervention further to what is already being practiced in the unit, as overall low levels of stress were reported. Some parents, however, did find the unit more stressful, and they may benefit from increased intervention.

Abstract:
This project aims to appraise evidence of the effectiveness of various practices on reducing stress, anxiety, and depression among parents of infants in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). The project contains six research articles from both national and international journals. Study designs include one meta-analysis, one randomized controlled trial, one small scale randomized controlled trial, one prospective phase lag cohort study, on pretest-posttest study, and one mixed-methods pretest-posttest study. Recommendations for effective interventions were based on best evidence discovered through quality appraisal and study outcomes. All interventions, except for educational programs and Kangaroo Care, resulted in a statistically significant reduction of either stress, anxiety, and/ or depression. Family centered care and mindfulness-based intervention reduced all barriers of interest. There is strong and high-quality evidence for the effect of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy on depression, moderate evidence for the effect of activity-based group therapy on anxiety, and promising evidence for the effect of HUG Your Baby on stress.
