Objective: to explore the potential use of the “Baby Diary” from the perspective of mothers with premature babies hospitalized in the intensive care unit. Method: descriptive and exploratory study, with a qualitative approach. The collection took place in a neonatal intensive care unit in Southern Brazil from February to June 2022 and consisted of implementing the emotional support tool “Baby Diary”, so that mothers of premature babies could record their experiences during hospitalization. After delivery, the document became the possession of the mother and family. After discharge to the ward, the tool was evaluated through audio-recorded interviews regarding its use. Data processing and text analysis were carried out using the IRaMuTeQ software. Result: most mothers were primigravidae, with intensive care stays between 22 and 65 days. Four classes were identified: The use of the “Baby Diary” and initial resistance; Emotional support and demonstration of feelings; Use of the “Baby Diary” as an intermediary in organizing thoughts for conversation with the family; Empowerment in issues related to care. Conclusion: the “Baby Diary” had potential as an educational tool for interaction and support for families of premature babies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objetivo: evaluar la autoeficacia materna para el cuidado de recién nacidos prematuros en la unidad de cuidados intensivos neonatales y después del alta hospitalaria, y relacionarla con la duración de la lactancia materna en el hogar. Método: estudio longitudinal que empleó escalas de evaluación de autoeficacia de 38 madres de recién nacidos prematuros en el período de noviembre de 2020 a enero de 2022 en la ciudad de Cascavel – PR – Brasil. Los datos fueron analizados por estadística descriptiva e inferencial. Resultados: La autoeficacia materna durante la hospitalización mostró ser elevada, y se mantuvo, así, en la evaluación tras el alta. La autoeficacia para la lactancia no presentó diferencias estadísticamente significativas durante la hospitalización (p=0,335) ni tras el alta (p=0,640). Sin embargo, las madres con alta autoeficacia en la hospitalización y en el hogar mantuvieron la lactancia materna exclusiva durante más tiempo. Conclusión: Identificar la autoeficacia materna debe ser una rutina en la práctica clínica de la enfermería en la hospitalización y seguimiento post alta, para potencializar el mantenimiento de la lactancia materno exclusivo.

The objective was to understand the care provided by nurses with the insertion of the Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter in preterm newborns, in order to identify whether the practice continues to guarantee patient safety. This is a field research, descriptive, with a qualitative approach, carried out in a tertiary care hospital, located in the southwest of the state of Paraná, with nine nurses from the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit and the Neonatal Intermediate Care Unit. Data collection took place by applying a checklist and a semi-structured recorded interview, with the aid of a recorder, whose answers were transcribed and grouped by similarities. They classified them into two categories: Practices that promote safety to the newborn while using the PICC; and Practices that promote comfort to the newborn during the insertion of the PICC. The importance of knowing the safety and comfort measures is understood, in addition to developing appropriate actions, so that they can be guaranteed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Introducción. La Organización Mundial de la Salud recomienda focalizar la atención en el período neonatal, eliminar la mortalidad de causa prevenible y brindar cuidados de calidad. Es esencial conocer cuáles son las condiciones con alta probabilidad de ocurrencia en esa población para monitorearlos de forma sistemática, de modo que se logre su detección temprana; y el abordaje terapéutico y rehabilitación oportunos. Objetivos. Sintetizar las recomendaciones incluidas en las Directrices de práctica clínica basadas en la evidencia para el seguimiento de recién nacidos en riesgo, publicada por la Centro Latinoamericano de Perinatología/ Salud de la Mujer y Reproductiva de la Organización Panamericana de la Salud en el 2020, con el fin de presentar las estrategias para el seguimiento de los niños recién nacidos con condiciones de riesgo desde su nacimiento hasta los 2 años. Métodos. Se llevó a cabo una síntesis de la guía y sus recomendaciones. Además, se realizó una búsqueda sistemática en Pubmed, Lilacs, Health Systems Evidence, Epistemonikos y literatura gris de estudios desarrollados en la Región de las Américas, con el fin de identificar barreras, facilitadores y estrategias de implementación. Resultados. Se formularon 21 recomendaciones y 14 puntos de buena práctica que aplican a los recién nacidos con condiciones de riesgo hasta los dos años (prematuros y aquellos con alteraciones adquiridas o congénitas). Se identificaron barreras como la disponibilidad de pruebas de tamización, deficiencias en el sistema de referencia y conocimiento de las recomendaciones para su implementación. Conclusiones. La guía brinda recomendaciones sobre los criterios de egreso, incluidas pruebas de tamizaje; información y apoyo para padres y cuidadores; tamizaje y frecuencia de seguimiento de los niños en riesgo hasta los dos años en la Región de las Américas.

• El tacto terapéutico es un apoyo emocional que le da tranquilidad al RNPT conectado al CPAP nasal. • La adaptación del RNPT con CPAP nasal requiere intervenciones que proporcionen confort y seguridad. • El tacto terapéutico es seguro de aplicar en el recién nacido prematuro conectado a CPAP nasal. • El profesional de enfermería además de estabilizar el patrón respiratorio del prematuro debe proporcionarle intervenciones que favorezcan el neurodesarrollo. Introducción: El recién nacido prematuro presenta una inmadurez del sistema cardiorespiratorio, lo que dificulta su adaptación al medio extrauterino y conlleva a múltiples complicaciones las cuales se requieren intervenciones que mejoren la ventilación y el intercambio gaseoso tales como la oxigenación a través de dispositivos de apoyo terapéutico como la presión positiva continua de la vía aérea o CPAP. Objetivo: determinar el efecto del tacto terapéutico en la adaptación del recién nacido pretérmino con CPAP. Materiales y métodos: Estudio cuasi-experimental, con una muestra de 13 RNPT a quienes se les aplicó el tacto terapéutico durante 15 minutos, con 2 sesiones diarias (6 am y 8pm), con evaluación antes y después del CRE: “Adaptación del prematuro”. A lo cual se le realizó el análisis descriptivo correspondiente. Resultados: El total de los participantes, fue asignado al grupo control y grupo intervenido de forma similar, evidenciando cambios antes y después de la intervención, pero en especial en el indicador postura de las manos, con una diferencia entre ambos grupos de p 0,74 con valor de 0.006. Conclusiones: La aplicación del tacto terapéutico al RNPT con CPAP nasal permite mejorar el confort del RNPT a través de indicadores fisiológicos y neurocomportamentales.

Conclusión: Es fundamental el apoyo emocional, empatía y educación por parte de los profesionales hacia las madres, para ayudarlas a sobrellevar este proceso de la mejor manera posible, disminuyendo la incertidumbre, aumentando la confianza y tranquilidad de ellas.

Human milk is the food of choice for low birth weight preterms, but its processing and administration lead to nutritional losses. Studies have been proposing human milk additives, and the challenge is to seek techniques for effective lipid supplementation, with emphasis on omega-3, due to its importance in neurological development and cell integrity. The objective was to develop and test emulsions containing omega-3 source oil to microcapsules manufacture for addition to human milk. The experimental study used fish oil, soy lecithin as emulsifier, and starch and maltodextrin as wall materials with subsequent lyophilization for the production of powders from the microcapsules. The stability and characteristics analyzes of the product showed positive results, being a viable alternative for the addition of lipids to human milk. Future analyzes will allow the study of the behavior of the product added to human milk and will subsidize research on human milk additives for vulnerable children. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Establishing criteria for standardized, more aggressive enteral nutrition, with a start of trophic feeding within the first 24 hours and the gradual advancement of enteral feeding, appears to have a positive effect in preventing postnatal malnutrition in preterm and low birth weight infants. The aim of this study was to synthesize the knowledge evidenced in the scientific literature on early enteral nutrition, trophic and fast diet, comparing several studies on the subject. It is an integrative review, with research with secondary data collection. The scientific articles of this study belong to the LILACS and MEDLINE databases, with the following descriptors: "infant premature", "nutrition therapy" e "recommended dietary allowances". Early and fast nutrition promoted weight gain, neurological development, faster full nutrition, reduced hospitalization, and necrotizing enterocolitis, among other outcomes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The oropharyngeal administration of colostrum in preterm newborns may offer immunological benefits through the contact of protective biofactors with oropharyngeal-associated lymphoid tissue. The objective was to elucidate the influence of maternal colostrum administration in the oropharynx of premature babies with clinical suspicion of early neonatal sepsis. We selected twenty newborns, admitted to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) of a public hospital during the study period. Raw colostrum was placed on the oropharyngeal mucosa until the 5th day of life. Blood samples were collected to complement the diagnosis. The study concluded that newborns who received oral colostrum in the first days of life reached birth weight faster than babies who did not. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

To identify the dietary profile of premature newborns admitted to a Neonatal Unit of a federal public maternity hospital in the city of Rio de Janeiro. This is an excerpt from a descriptive, retrospective study with a quantitative approach, based on the review of medical records analyzed using simple descriptive statistics. The most prevalent diet was the enteral diet (65.63%), followed by the oral diet (33.33%). The average in days of each one was 26 days in enteral diet, eight days in oral diet. Mostly used techniques were gavage (57.29%), breastfeeding (27.08%), cup (8.33%), gastroclysis (4.17%) and bottle feeding (3.13%). The current research has made it possible to know the dietary profile of preterm infants in terms of their growth and also through the practices carried out in the unit, in addition to detailing how this transition process occurs during hospitalization, as well as the main complications encountered during this period.

Objective: to analyze in the literature the scientific evidence available on the position of the premature newborn (PTNB) in a neonatal intensive care unit. Method: integrative literature review carried out in the MEDLINE / PubMed, CINAHL, LILACS AND BDENF databases in February 2020 without time delimitation. Results: 27 articles were included, with a predominance of experimental studies. It was found that positioning can improve the physiological parameters of PTNB such as breathing, heart rate, brain flow, nutrition. In addition to benefits in behavioral responses with emphasis on decreasing pain, comfort, posture and sleep. Conclusion: proper positioning can contribute to improving the physiological and behavioral responses of PTNB and should be a practice incorporated by the health team. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The objective was to describe maternal experiences related to breastfeeding of premature infants in a neonatal unit of a baby-friendly hospital. This is a qualitative exploratory-descriptive study conducted in 2015. Six mothers of premature infants hospitalized in a baby-friendly hospital participated in the research. Information was collected through semi-structured interviews. Thematic content analysis was used. Three thematic categories emerged: Difficulties faced during the breastfeeding process; Human milk bank milking routine and Feelings related to breastfeeding of a premature child. It is concluded that, in this scenario, mothers experienced difficulties, such as the baby's clinical conditions and feelings of stress and anxiety. However, they were pleased to be able to breastfeed their premature children and assist in recovery. It was also possible to identify the importance of health team performance in this process.

Qualified care for premature newborns has promoted scientific and technological advances that have contributed to reducing neonatal morbidity and mortality. The use of balance nets, redeterapia can help control the heart rate and breathing of babies, according to the evidence. The aim of this study was to verify the perception of nurses about the use of redeterapy in newborns in neonatal intensive care units. For this, a field study with a qualitative approach was carried out, carried out in two reference maternity hospitals in the care of the newborn. Twenty highlevel nursing professionals from the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit sector were part of the sample. The data analysis was performed using the content analysis technique proposed by Bardin, with two categories emerging: Conceptions about the use of redeterapy in nurses' care for PTNB; Daily care challenges regarding the use of redeterapy by nurses; and benefits of PTN redeterapy.

Resumo: A prevalência de nascimento pré-termo tem apresentado uma tendência crescente em vários países, inclusive naqueles desenvolvidos. Estudos no Brasil relatam que o Sistema de Informações sobre Nascidos Vivos (SINASC), até 2010, subestimava a prevalência de nascimentos pré-termo, quando comparada aos estudos baseados em dados primários. A partir de 2011, a idade gestacional ao nascer no SINASC tem sido calculada, quando disponível, pela data da última menstruação (DUM). O objetivo foi avaliar a acurácia da determinação da idade gestacional gerada pela DUM, comparando com a de outros estimadores, e correlacioná-la com o peso ao nascer. Estudo de base populacional com dados do SINASC disponíveis no Departamento de Informática do SUS entre 2011 e 2015. As definições de prematuridade, baixo peso e asfixia ao nascer foram aquelas determinadas na literatura. A adequação do peso ao nascer com a idade gestacional foi calculada baseando-se nas curvas de Fenton e Intergrowth-21. Compararam-se as médias de peso pela presença ou não de prematuridade. A estimação da idade gestacional foi realizada pela DUM em 58,5%, e 41,5% utilizaram outro método. Encontrou-se que a proporção de prematuridade foi de 12% no grupo DUM e 8,4% no grupo outro método, já o baixo peso ao nascer foi de 6,5% e 8,4%, respectivamente. A média de peso dos prematuros no grupo DUM foi maior. O uso da DUM como estimador da idade gestacional superestimou a proporção de peso maior ou igual a 2.500g nos prematuros, o que não parece compatível com a distribuição esperada para esta faixa. A DUM favoreceu a “correção” da prematuridade para os parâmetros comparáveis aos de estudos com dados primários, embora as distorções encontradas entre idade gestacional e peso ao nascer possam indicar que ainda existem problemas com este estimador.

Introduction: The preterm newborn (PTNB) is the baby born after the termination of pregnancy before completing 37 weeks of gestation. In view of the numerous consequences of this early birth, the sensation of pain is identified with greater intensity, as its inhibitory pathways are not fully developed in PTNB. Many resources have been suggested as promoters of well-being and consequent pain reduction in physical therapy interventions in PTNBs, such as the hot tub. Objective: This integrative review sought to identify the benefits of the hot tub on the well-being of newborns related to pain. Methodology: This integrative review was carried out using current bibliographic references that address the health of the PTNB and the hot tub, as an aquatic physiotherapy technique capable of promoting the well-being and reducing pain of these babies. Conclusion: Based on the consulted literature, it was possible to identify that the hot tub is able to offer PTNB a humanized approach, considered one of the most indicated techniques. It promotes an adaptive improvement to the environment, pain relief, weight gain, decreased heart rate and irritability. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
