It is also positively associated with an increase in fetal head circumference and femur length. To assess the impact of pre-pregnancy BMI on neonatal anthropometryMethods This multicenter observational study was conducted from July 2010-July 2011. A total of 1,000 mothers were enrolled, and their antenatal records were screened for pre-pregnancy weight, height, and other details. They were assigned to four categories as per their BMI: underweight: BMI<18.5kg/m2, normal:18.5-24.99kg/m2, overweight: 25-29.9kg/m2, and obese: ≥30kg/m2 group. The neonatal anthropometric measurements and other information were retrieved from the neonate's files. Neonates who were admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) were followed till their discharge from hospital or mortality.Results Out of 1,000 cases, 170 (17%) belonged to underweight, 224 (22.4%) to overweight, 86 (8.6%) to obese, and 520 (52%) to the normal group. Overweight and obese women were at a higher risk of developing gestational diabetes mellitus, hypertensive complications during pregnancy, and undergoing cesarean sections. They also had a higher risk of delivering large for gestational age and post-term neonates, whereas underweight women had a significantly higher risk of delivering small for gestational, low birth weight, and premature newborns. Furthermore, a positive correlation was observed between maternal BMI and neonatal anthropometric measurements.Conclusion As evidenced by the obtained results, both low and high pre-pregnancy BMI is associated with adverse maternal and perinatal outcomes.","PeriodicalId":14584,"journal":{"name":"Iranian Journal of Neonatology IJN","volume":"22 1","pages":"77-84"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86979839","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Even though kangaroo mother care is now recognized by global experts as an integral part of essential newborn care, the adoption and implementation of the kangaroo mother care is still challenging. Aim of this study to explore perceived enablers and barriers of kangaroo mother care among mothers and nurses in neonatal intensive care unit.Methods: Descriptive Phenomenological study design was conducted in Tikur Anbessa Specialized referral Hospital at Addis Ababa with 13 mothers and 7 nurses from 10th May -15th July, 2020. In-depth interview used with semi-structured questionnaire and data was collected till saturation of information. Thematic analysis was done with ATLAS.Ti software version 7.5.16 .Results: Major enablers and barriers of practicing kangaroo mother care among mothers and nurses reported that lack of understanding of KMC, family responsibility and workload, lack of awareness of KMC by community, social practice and traditional adaptation were the barriers to practice of KMC. Poor supervision and follow-up, limited resource especially sanitation resource are the major barriers related to health staff and setting. Nurses reported that scale- up of kangaroo mother care was influenced by absence of training, poor attention given by managers and administrative, shortage of rooms and facilities, workload and time shortage.Conclusion: A complex array of barriers and enablers determine a mother’s and nurses ability to provide KMC. Improve the mothers' to practice KMC and to promote the health of preterm infants, supports such as family, community and health professional support needed. Nurses needed in-service education, proper administration and less workload to promote KMC practice.","PeriodicalId":14584,"journal":{"name":"Iranian Journal of Neonatology IJN","volume":"135 1","pages":"63-69"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88439981","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is a cross-sectional study on newborns delivered or admitted to the All India Institute of Medical Sciences Raipur (AIIMS Raipur), Chhattisgarh, India. Methods: Dried blood spot analysis of newborn thyroid-stimulating hormone (nTSH) was carried out on 1,216 newborns after ethical clearance. The TSH levels were presented in percentage to determine the distribution in the study population. The mean values were compared within the groups categorized under each variable. The newborns' variables in this study included birth weight, Ponderal index, and neonatal complications. The studied maternal variables included antenatal visits, maternal age, gestational age, anemia, and mode of delivery. Results: The mean (standard error of the mean) for nTSH was obtained at 3.37 (0.12) mIU/L and 97% of newborns were below 8 mIU/L. Mean nTSH was significantly high in mothers older than 30 years (P=0.019) and those with anemia during the antenatal period (p <0.001). It was significantly raised in babies with complications (P=0.004). Besides, higher values were also observed in low birth weight babies and those with low Ponderal Index. Higher nTSH was observed among newborns born to mothers with a thyroid disorder, those delivered prematurely and/or by cesarean section, and those with no antenatal visits.

In this regard, the present study aimed to determine the effect of mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) program on “coping behaviors” and attachment of mothers of neonates with congenital anomalies. Methods: This randomized clinical trial (code: IRCT20190123042471N1) was conducted on 70 mothers of neonates with congenital anomalies under medical treatment in two medical-education centers of Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran in 2019. The subjects were selected based on the inclusion criteria and were randomly assigned to two groups of intervention and control (n=35 per group). The intervention group, which included 10 subgroups of 1-3 subjects, received a modified four-session MBSR program (once a week, 1-1.5 h per session). The control group received routine care in the hospital during their hospitalization. The Coping Health Inventory for Parents questionnaire and Maternal Postnatal Attachment Scale tool were completed by the intervention and control groups, both before and after the intervention. The data were analyzed in SPSS (version 25.0) using multivariate analysis of variance. Results: The MBSR program affected the pattern of coping behaviors and maternal-neonatal attachment. There was an increase in the mean scores of coping behaviors and maternal-neonatal attachment in the intervention group, compared to the control group (p <0.05).
