Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ideal place for a newborn to be following a delivery is with their mother. Many hospitals within the United States take the baby away from the mother and place them on a warmer in order to do assessments and complete various tasks that are required within the first few hours of an infant's life. Taking an infant away from its mother can lead to ineffective bonding and breastfeeding rates. There are various studies that have been conducted that prove the many benefits that skin to skin contact offers both mother and infant. In order for a facility to reap the benefits of Kangaroo care, a policy must be proposed and implemented. Proper education and implementation must be done in order for success to happen. With the implementation of skin to skin contact within the immediate postpartum period following both a vaginal and cesarean section will promote temperature control, breastfeeding success, and glycemic control of the newborn.

This book was released on 2020-05-01 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The delivery of high quality and equitable care for both mothers and newborns is complex and requires efforts across many sectors. The United States spends more on childbirth than any other country in the world, yet outcomes are worse than other high-resource countries, and even worse for Black and Native American women. There are a variety of factors that influence childbirth, including social determinants such as income, educational levels, access to care, financing, transportation, structural racism and geographic variability in birth settings. It is important to reevaluate the United States' approach to maternal and newborn care through the lens of these factors across multiple disciplines. Birth Settings in America: Outcomes, Quality, Access, and Choice reviews and evaluates maternal and newborn care in the United States, the epidemiology of social and clinical risks in pregnancy and childbirth, birth settings research, and access to and choice of birth settings.

Book Synopsis Breast-Feeding: Early Influences on Later Health by : Gail Ruth Goldberg
Download or read book Breast-Feeding: Early Influences on Later Health written by Gail Ruth Goldberg and published by Springer. This book was released on 2009-08-29 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Breast-Feeding: Early Influences on Later Health is a new book which draws together areas of research in early lifel programming of adult health, with a unique focus on the post-natal period in terms of early life programming particularly the extent to which differences in infant feeding practices can lay an indelible imprint on metabolism and behaviour, and hence affect later function and risk of disease. This is an area where there is much less information currently available than there is for fetal programming, and the book raises many new questions and highlights numerous areas where further research is needed. The book chapters are arranged in three core sections: Chapters 1-4 lay down some of the basic biology of early life development; Chapters 5-9 examine how breast-milk and breast-feeding might ‘programme’ these processes by acting as modulators of development; Chapters 10-17 examine the epidemiological evidence that such effects do indeed exist. In addition the book includes unique chapters on the Evolution of human lactation and complementary feeding, The Macy-György Prize Lecture ‘My Milky Way’, updates on HIV and Breast-Feeding and on Early breastfeeding cessation and infant mortality in low-income countries, and measuring trace immune factors in human milk, all important topics that have such a critical impact on child health and survival in many countries.

Book Synopsis Skin-to-skin Contact by : Trista Huerta
Download or read book Skin-to-skin Contact written by Trista Huerta and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Early initiation of skin-to-skin contact immediately following birth has significant health benefits for a newborn during its extra-uterine transition. Research studies have detailed how this simple intervention of skin-to-skin contact (SSC), leads to positive outcomes including: mother/infant interaction and bonding, breastfeeding success, thermo regulation, vital sign stabilization, blood glucose regulation, and pain management. Evidence-based guidelines have been developed to improve care practices and optimize the birth experience and outcomes for mothers and their newborns. In current practices, separation of mother and newborn derives from an approach to accomplish tasks, signifying the need for education among nurses in regards to the benefits of immediate SSC (Blomqvist and Nyqvist, 2011). A search of peer-reviewed articles, relevant literature reviews and several qualitative studies revealed a significant amount of evidence to support the idea that more education is needed to prove how and why immediate initiation of SSC after birth is a critical component to postpartum care. The purpose of this proposal is to educate on benefits of SSC, and guide the implementation of early SSC immediately following birth as a standard of practice within Women and Infant Services (WIS). A SSC committee of educators will be developed to conduct research that is current and relevant to practice. This research will then be presented to leaders within WIS. With support and permission, this author is proposing a mandatory four-hour in-service pilot class highlighting the significant benefits associated with SSC (Appendix A). A talk-aloud will follow the in-service, where healthcare providers can share their questions, comments, and concerns regarding the possible changes to practice and policy. Each member of the class will be given a brief survey and questionnaire (Appendix B). This will serve as a tool to evaluate the effectiveness of the teaching, and determining the need for improvements for further teaching. Patient surveys (Appendix C) will evaluate the effectiveness of new-implemented practices and overall patient experience regarding incorporation of SSC. Stakeholders will be presented with the rational for the proposal and the survey results of the three-month trial of this new implementation practice. The Self-Efficacy Theory (SET) supports this proposal method by connecting confidence in the achievement of goals, and behaviors toward accomplishing goals, as well as identifying variables that may affect the outcome (Current Nursing, 2012). The Attachment Theory also supports this proposal as it recognizes the distinct attachment behaviors of an infant and its mother, developing an innate bond. Skin to skin contact promotes physical comfort and verbal interaction on the part of the mother, creating organic ties between a mother and her newborn. This bond imprints an emotional attachment; therefore, physical separation of infant and mother creates emotional, and physiological distress (Kearvell and Grant 2010). Understanding the impact that physical separation causes between a mother and her infant, it is important to promote this essential element into care.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This guide provides a full range of updated, evidence-based norms and standards that will enable health care providers to give high quality care during pregnancy, delivery and in the postpartum period, considering the needs of the mother and her newborn baby. All recommendations are for skilled attendants working at the primary level of health care, either at the facility or in the community. They apply to all women attending antenatal care, in delivery, postpartum or post abortion care, or who come for emergency care, and to all newborns at birth and during the first week of life (or later) for routine and emergency care. This guide is a guide for clinical decision-making. It facilitates the collection; analysis, classification and use of relevant information by suggesting key questions, essential observations and/or examinations, and recommending appropriate research-based interventions. It promotes the early detection of complications and the initiation of early and appropriate treatment, including time referral, if necessary. Correct use of this guide should help reduce high maternal and perinatal mortality and morbidity rates prevalent in many parts of the developing world, thereby making pregnancy and childbirth safer.

Book Synopsis Significance of Early Skin to Skin Contact by : Jill Blackman
Download or read book Significance of Early Skin to Skin Contact written by Jill Blackman and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Early skin to skin contact (SSC) provides physiologic and psychological benefits to mothers and healthy infants. The instinctive interactions between mothers and their newborns begins immediately after birth and is potentiated with early SSC. Early SSC entails positioning the newborn, wearing only a diaper and hat, prone on the mother's bare chest with a warm blanket on top of the infant immediately after birth (Berg and Hung, 2011). However, routine separation after birth is common institutional process in hospitals that results in many detrimental outcomes such as, discouragement of successful breastfeeding, hypothermia, and decreased bonding. Many times separating mothers and infants stems from a task oriented approach to care and a knowledge deficit related the beneficial effects of SSC (Blomqvist and Nyqvist, 2011). The purpose of this project is to implement routine practices of SSC immediately after birth for all healthy newborns at Campbell County Memorial Hospital (CCMH). A presentation to key stakeholders demonstrating supporting research of SSC displayed in an evidence table will gain enthusiasm and support to move this project forward. The development of a task force will help implement this process. The task force will initially develop a business proposal and power point presentation to help organizational leaders see the potential outcomes of this project. A staff survey will be conducted to gain a baseline of staff perception regarding SSC. Next, the task force will develop a staff education plan including a competency check off list, guidelines, and a flow chart to ensure full understanding of the process. The documentation system will be adjusted to include SSC and chart audits will be instituted to evaluate the process. Weekly staff surveys will evaluate barriers to the process. The development of patient surveys will assess and evaluate the mother's perception and experience of the SSC session. As SSC is implemented in the trial phase, adjustments will be made to improve the process. In addition, the marketing department will promote this new service with brochures and advertisements. By implementing the recommended best practice of SSC at CCMH, improved patient outcomes and improved patient satisfaction will result.
