Ensaio clínico de uma intervenção educativa sobre posição de dormir da criança e estudo sobre coleito no primeiro semestre de vida

Issler, Roberto Mario Silveira January 2009 (has links)
Essa tese aborda dois tópicos pouco explorados na literatura científica brasileira: a síndrome da morte súbita do lactente (SMSL) e o coleito. O objetivo principal foi avaliar o impacto de uma intervenção educativa individual para mães na maternidade, em relação ao posicionamento para dormir da criança. Secundariamente, verificou-se a prevalência de coleito e os fatores associados a esse arranjo para dormir. Realizou-se um ensaio clínico randomizado com 228 duplas de mães e seus filhos. A intervenção consistia em uma sessão individual de orientação na maternidade sobre a importância da posição supina para a criança dormir na prevenção da SMSL. O desfecho principal foi a posição de dormir da criança aos três e seis meses de idade, registrada durante visitas domiciliares. Regressão de Poisson foi utilizada para identificar os fatores associados ao coleito. Em relação ao posicionamento de dormir da criança, conforme relatado pela mãe. 42,9% das mães do grupo intervenção e 24,0% das mães do grupo controle colocavam seus filhos para dormir na posição supina na visita aos três meses (p= 0,009). A intervenção no hospital foi a única variável que influenciou as práticas maternas em relação à posição de dormir da criança (RC= 1,35; IC 95% = 1,08 - 1,64). A prevalência de coleito aos três e seis meses foi de, respectivamente, 31,2% e 28,5%. Aos três meses, o coleito estava associado a mãe sem companheiro (RP= 1,56; IC= 1,01-2,39) e a coabitação com a avó materna da criança (RP= 1,70; IC= 1,09-1,65). Concluindo, uma sessão educativa individual na maternidade aumentou significativamente a prevalência da posição supina para dormir no terceiro mês de vida da criança, mas não foi suficiente para garantir que a maioria das mães colocasse seus filhos para dormir nessa posição. Quanto ao coleito, ele se mostrou comum nos primeiros seis meses, estando associado à mãe sem companheiro e a coabitação com a avó materna da criança. / This study addresses two that issues have been little studied in the Brazilian scientific literature: sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) and bedsharing. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of an individual educational intervention given to mothers in the maternity ward regarding the infant sleep position. Secondarily we verified the prevalence of bedsharing and the variables associated to with this sleep arrangement. A randomized clinical trial was performed, in which 228 pairs of mothers-infants were included. The intervention consisted in an individual educational session for mothers in the maternity ward, concerning the recommendation of the supine position for infant sleep to prevent SIDS. The main outcome was the position in which the infant slept at night at three and six months, registered during home visits. The Poisson regression was applied to identify the factors associated with bedsharing. Regarding the infant sleep position, according to mothers' report, 42.9 percent of the mothers in the intervention group and 24.0 percent of the control group put their infants to sleep in the supine position at three months' visit (p= 0.009). The intervention in the hospital was the only variable that influenced maternal practices concerning the infant sleep position (OR= 1.33; CI 95% = 1.08 - 1.64). The prevalence of bedsharing at three and six months was, respectively, 31.2 and 28.5 percent. At three months bedsharing was associated to mother without partner (prevalence ratio [PR] 1.56; CI 1.01-2.39) and mother sharing the home with infant's maternal grandmother (PR= 1.70; CI= 1.09 - 1.65). We conclude that an individual educational session in the maternity ward significantly increased the prevalence of the infant's supine sleep position at three months. However, the intervention was not sufficient to assure the majority of the mothers would put their infants to sleep at this position. Bedsharing was common at the first six months of life and was associated with single mothers and sharing the home with infant's maternal grandmother.

Social Determinants of Women’s Reproductive Health

Chegwin Dugand, Valentina January 2023 (has links)
Reducing health disparities and achieving health equity in maternal and infant health is a critical concern for social work and public health stakeholders more generally. This three-paper dissertation is dedicated to exploring program or policy modifiable social determinants of maternal and infant health with a particular focus on vulnerable populations. Paper one explores the influence of household members on women’s sexual and reproductive behaviors. Paper two studies the impact of smoke-free regulations on birth outcomes in Latin America. Lastly, paper three looks at the effects of police use of force, and racialized police use of force, on maternal and infant health. The findings of these papers provide important information to inform programs and policies aimed at improving reproductive health and well-being in the U.S. and Latin America.

Outcome of a home-visiting intervention to improve social withdrawal assessed with the m-ADBB in six-month old infants in Khayelitsha, Cape Town : a cluster randomised controlled trial

Durandt, Nicola Estelle 12 1900 (has links)
Thesis (MSc)--Stellenbosch University, 2014. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Pregnant women living in South African peri-urban settlements face many challenges for their health and the health of their infants. Current health care services face many constraints and are not able to meet all the needs of pregnant mothers. Home-visiting programmes implemented by community health workers can alleviate these constraints. The current RCT assessed the effectiveness of the Philani Plus Intervention Program that addressed HIV, alcohol, maternal and child nutrition and mental health. The effectiveness of the intervention was assessed by measuring infant social withdrawal behaviour using the modified Alarm Distress Baby Scale (m- ADBB). A total of 681 cases were randomised into control (N=330) and intervention groups (N=351) and assessed using the m-ADBB. A cut-off score of two and above was used to determined significant social withdrawal behaviour. Data was analysed using descriptive statistics and cross-tabulation initially, followed by analysis of variance and multilevel modelling. Results indicated a prevalence of 46.7% of social withdrawal behaviour; however, no significant differences between groups were found. The current prevalence was substantially higher in comparison to the only other published study using the m-ADBB. Furthermore, the prevalence rate was also significantly higher compared to the majority of other studies using the original Alarm distress Baby Scale (ADBB). The high prevalence of social withdrawal behaviour found in this study indicates an increased risk for suboptimal infant development. Further research regarding social withdrawal behaviour and the casual mechanisms associated with the development of such behaviour is needed. Furthermore, validation of the m-ADBB in different settings is needed. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Swanger vroue wat in Suid-Afrikaanse buitestedelike nedersettings woon staar baie uitdagings in die gesig met betrekking tot hul gesondheid en die gesondheid van hul babas. Huidige gesondheidsdienste is baie beperk en is nie in staat om in al die behoeftes van swanger moeders te voorsien nie. Huis-besoek programme wat deur gemeenskaplike gesondheidswerkers geïmplementeer word, kan hierdie beperkings verlig. Die huidige RCT het die effektiwiteit van die Philani Plus Intervensie Program wat MIV, alkohol, voeding en geestelike gesondheid aanspreek, geassesseer. Die effektiwiteit van die intervensie is geassesseer deur sosiale onttrekkingsgedrag met behulp van die gewysigde Alarm Nood Baba Skaal (m-ADBB) te meet. ‘n Totaal van 681 gevalle is lukraak in kontrole (N = 330) en intervensie groepe (N = 351) verdeel en geëvalueer volgens die m-ADBB. 'n Afsnypunt van twee en hoër is gebruik om beduidende sosiale onttrekkingsgedrag te bepaal. Data is aanvanklik ontleed met behulp van beskrywende statistiek en kruis-tabulering, gevolg deur analise van variansie en multi-modelle. Resultate toon 'n 46,7%-voorkoms van sosiale onttrekkingsgedrag, maar het egter geen beduidende verskille tussen groepe getoon nie. Die huidige voorkoms was aansienlik hoër in vergelyking met die enigste ander gepubliseerde studie wat gebruik gemaak het van die m- ADBB. Verder was die voorkomssyfer ook aansienlik hoër in vergelyking met die meerderheid van die ander studies wat gebruik gemaak het van die oorspronklike Alarm Nood Baba Skaal (ADBB). Die hoë voorkoms van sosiale onttrekkingsgedrag dui op 'n verhoogde risiko vir suboptimale baba ontwikkeling. Verdere navorsing oor sosiale onttrekkingsgedrag en die meganismes wat verband hou met die ontwikkeling van sulke gedrag, is nodig. Verder word die bekragtiging van die m-ADBB in verskillende instellings benodig.

A experiência materna no cotidiano de cuidados dos bebês de risco / Maternal experience in the daily care of at-risk babies

Petrokas, Rejane Cristina 08 February 2018 (has links)
Esta pesquisa se propôs a conhecer a experiência materna no cotidiano de cuidados dos bebês de risco no domicilio, considerando que esses cuidados são determinantes para o desenvolvimento infantil. Foram realizadas histórias orais temáticas com três mães de bebês atendidos em um núcleo de reabilitação da periferia da zona leste de São Paulo, selecionadas por conveniência. As entrevistas foram gravadas, transcritas, textualizadas e transcriadas e posteriormente analisadas segundo método da hermenêutica-crítica. Por meio de análise temática foram identificadas duas categorias como resultado: Tornando-se mãe de um bebê de risco em meio às durezas do cuidado especializado e O cotidiano de cuidados de um bebê de risco, cada qual subdividida em quatro temas. O nascimento dos bebês veio acompanhado da notícia de sua condição de risco e da necessidade de internação hospitalar, o que gerou sofrimento para as mulheres. A interação com os bebês de risco não se configurou de forma espontânea, o que trouxe marcas no processo de tornar-se mãe das mulheres. O período de internação hospitalar dos bebês se configurou para as mães como um vazio, resultando em seu investimento para a concretização da alta, de modo a poderem dar continuidade à vida e à maternidade. As mulheres assumiram o papel de acompanhantes de suas bebês durante o período de hospitalização e passaram a se apropriar de informações acerca dos cuidados envolvidos, vivendo também uma expectativa pela alta. A chegada dos bebês ao domicílio no pós-alta hospitalar configurou-se como um momento que as mães assumiram o papel de cuidadora quase exclusiva, lidando com a instabilidade da condição de saúde do bebê. A ineficiência da rede de assistência tornou essa experiência solitária, frente à descontinuidade do cuidado oferecido. Mesmo com a sensação de insegurança, as mães assumiram o cuidado rotineiro, os procedimentos especializados e o acompanhamento ambulatorial dos bebês. Com a precária oferta de programas e políticas que garantissem a continuidade dos cuidados, as mães empreenderam a construção pessoal de uma rede de cuidados. A investigação do diagnóstico das bebês constituiu-se como um processo longo, com realização de exames e encaminhamentos em serviços diversos de saúde e de reabilitação. A preocupação com o futuro das filhas, o cuidado de si e os projetos pessoais passaram a se configurar como temas para as mulheres. Com muitas tarefas a cumprir e com tempo escasso para cuidar de si, as mulheres vivenciaram desgaste físico e emocional resultante dos cuidados requeridos por seus bebês, mas em geral também referiram a experiência como prazerosa, intensa e vivida com muito afeto e interesse nesse cuidado. O fato das mães colaboradoras serem todas primíparas contribuiu para a compreensão da experiência de vivenciar a maternidade pela primeira vez na condição de torna-se mãe de um bebê de risco. Contudo, outros estudos são necessários para se conhecer as diferenças nas experiencias de mães que tiveram outros filhos anteriormente / This research aimed to know the maternal experience in the daily care of babies at risk at home, considering that a good care is determinant for child development. Thematic oral histories were carried out with three mothers of babies attended in a rehabilitation nucleus of the periphery of the east zone of São Paulo, selected by convenience. The interviews were recorded, transcribed, textualized and transcreated and later analyzed according to the method of critical hermeneutics. By means of thematic analysis, two categories were identified as a result: Becoming the mother of a baby at risk amidst the hardships of specialized care and The daily care of a baby at risk, each subdivided into four themes. The birth of the babies was accompanied by the news of their risk condition and the need for hospitalization, which caused suffering for the women. Interaction with at-risk babies did not develop spontaneously, which has impacted the process of becoming a mother. The period of the hospitalization of the babies was experienced by the mothers as an emptiness, making them to invest their strength in the babies\' discharge, to give continuity to life and motherhood. The women assumed the role of supporting their babies during the hospitalization period and began to get information about the care involved, also living an expectation of discharge. The arrival of the babies at home after hospital discharge was set up as a time when mothers assumed almost exclusively the role of caregiver, dealing with the instability of the baby\'s health condition. The inefficiency of the assistance network made this experience solitary, in the face of the discontinuity of care offered. Even with the feeling of insecurity, the mothers took on the routine care, the specialized procedures, and the out-patients follow-up of the babies. With the precarious supply of programs and policies that could ensure the continuity of healthcare, the mothers undertook a personal construction of a support network. The investigation of the diagnosis of the babies constituted a long process, with examinations and referrals in various health and rehabilitation services. The concern for the future of the daughters, the care of themselves and the personal projects began to be configured as themes for the women. With many tasks to accomplish and with limited time to take care of themselves, the women experienced physical and emotional exhaustion resultant of the care required by their babies, but in general they also referred the experience as pleasant, intense, and lived with great affection and interest. The fact that the participants were all primiparous contributed to the understanding of this experience of experiencing motherhood for the first time under the condition of becoming a mother of a baby at risk. However, other studies are necessary to understand the differences of experiences regarding mothers who had other children previously
