Abstract:

Background: Neonates who require specialized care and life-saving therapies in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) and neonatal special care units (NSCUs) can be exposed to separation from their parents and families. Consequently, establishing a parental-neonate bond can be difficult. However, addressing this problem of separation through involving parents and families in neonatal care to improve parent-professional collaboration can result in positive outcomes for neonates and their families. Family-centred care (FCC) has developed over decades and is broadly recommended as an ideal model

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 ba

Abstract:

The vital signs monitoring data of an infant receiving intensive care are a rich source of information about its health condition. One major concern about the state of health of such patients is the onset of neonatal sepsis, a life-threatening bloodstream infection. As early signs are subtle and current diagnosis procedures involve slow laboratory testing, sepsis detection based on the monitored physiological dynamics is a clinically significant task. This challenging problem can be thoroughly modelled as real-time inference within a machine learning framework. In this thesis, we develop proba

Abstract:

The observed physiological dynamics of an infant receiving intensive care contain a great deal of information about factors which cannot be examined directly, including the state of health of the infant and the operation of the monitoring equipment. This type of data tends to contain both common, recognisable patterns (e.g. as caused by certain clinical operations or artifacts) and some which are rare and harder to interpret. The problem of identifying the presence of these patterns using prior knowledge is clinically significant, and one which is naturally described in terms of statistical ma

The attitudes of staff and parents were on the whole favourable, with the majority feeling that infant care benefited from the introduction of computers. A detailed study of the effects of computerised physiological monitoring on patient outcome in both short and medium term, showed no significant benefits. The computers improved both the quality and accuracy of the stored infant physiological data. Artefact was predominantly predictable; it cou

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

Comparisons of the incidence of blood stream infection (BSI) between neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) can promote sharing of potentially better practices for infection control. Comparisons should take into account differences in babies’ vulnerability and the invasive procedures which can introduce infection.

I found substantial variation, especially in the risk factors used to adjust incidence estimates. The use of routinely recor

Background Hyperbilirubinemia is a condition that affects most infants, but typically self-resolves and is not harmful. However, if bilirubin levels exceed neuroprotective defenses, the compound can cross the blood-brain barrier and have neurotoxic and potentially fatal effects. Treatment of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia with phototherapy is necessary for the prevention of kernicterus. Guidelines for the use of phototherapy in infants born at ≥ 35 weeks’ gestation were published by Bhutani et al. and endorsed by the American Academy of Pediatrics.

A neonatologia é uma subespecialidade da pediatria relativamente nova iniciando-se como uma área altamente tecnológica e que tende a ser cada vez menos invasiva.

Abstract:

Les nouveaux-nés prématurés sont vulnérables à des complications comme l’hyperbilirubinémie néonatale et le sepsis tardif (LOS), posant des défis importants dans les unités de soins intensifs néonatals (USIN). Malgré les avancées en matière de soins, la détection précoce et la gestion efficace de ces affections restent complexes. Cette thèse, basée sur l’étude CARESS-Premi (NCT01611740), vise à développer des techniques avancées de traitement des données et des modèles interprétables d’apprentissage automatique afin d’améliorer la prise de décision en USIN, via des systèmes de surveillance non
