Aims and Objectives: The study described the quality of care at SNCUs in aspirational districts of Odisha by using 7 quality of care indices, 2020-2022. Materials and Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional descriptive study on all newborns who received care at SNCUs of 10 aspirational districts in Odisha using the data from the SNCU online database for 2020-2022. Every quarter of the year, all the parameters were extracted and entered into an already designed spreadsheet. The 7 indices generated the SQCI score. We used MS Excel (2021) for data analysis. Results: A total of 50,226 admissions were registered. Perinatal asphyxia caused the significant morbidity (14,421, 29%). Throughout the 12 quarters, composite SQCI showed satisfactory performance (0.59-0.66). Rational admission of all units was good, and their scores were 0.71 to 0.87. Mortality in normal weight babies showed good performance. The Low Birth Weight Admission Index score ranged from 0.22 to 0.30, that is, unsatisfactory performance. During 2020 to 2022, the overall composite SQCI score of the 10 SNCUs corresponded to satisfactory care (0.56-0.68). Conclusion: SQCI is an essential tool for assessing the SNCU quality evaluation. It should be regularly used at the district level to enhance quality care. Health facilities’ preparedness for managing perinatal asphyxia is to be studied.","PeriodicalId":16516,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Neonatology","volume":"29 1-2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139864393","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}

We aimed to determine whether early administration of stress dose hydrocortisone to preterm babies during acute illness is associated with decreased incidence of BPD at 36 weeks of gestation. We retrospectively identified extremely premature neonates admitted to our neonatal intensive care unit before 24 hours of age. The primary exposure was receipt of a course of stress dose hydrocortisone (at least 3 mg/kg/day for 3 days or more) in the first 14 days of life. Our control group comprised of neonates who did not receive stress dose hydrocortisone in the first 14 days of life.

Given India’s extraordinarily high rates of preterm births, infant mortality, neonatal deaths and maternal fatalities, exclusive breastfeeding becomes even more crucial. There are many advantages of breastfeeding, but there are lots of barriers that need to be addressed. These problems need a proper objective assessment. To assess optimum positioning and attachment in mother-infant dyads, infant breastfeeding behaviour in the early neonatal period and early breastfeeding skills in mothers. A prospective cross-sectional study was conducted in the postnatal ward of a tertiary care hospital. In total, 208 full-term neonates (Age - 24 hours to 7 days) who were admitted to a postnatal ward of a tertiary care hospital and who were on direct breastfeeding were observed for breastfeeding. Objective assessment of breastfeeding was done by using the Bristol Breastfeeding Assessment Tool, Infant Breast-Feeding Assessment tool and LATCH tool. Statistical analysis was done by using SPSS version 25 with appropriate statistical tests. For the BBAT tool, 110 (52.9%) infants were well supported while feeding and 118 (56.7%) had proper latching or attachment. For IBFAT Score Analysis, 109 (52.4%) infants were effective vigorous feeders and 95 (45.7%) and 4 (1.9%) were moderately effective feeders and poor feeders, respectively. For LATCH Score Analysis, 173 (83.2%) mother-infant dyads achieved a high score and 35 (16.8%) achieved moderate score. Objective assessment of breastfeeding by using these tools will help to identify the problem related to breastfeeding for both baby and mother. Addressing a particular problem in a timely manner will help the mother and the baby to establish, initiate and sustain exclusive breastfeeding. Caesarean-delivered mothers as well as primiparous mothers both needed more focused counselling for breastfeeding positioning, motivation for early initiation breastfeeding, a strong supportive relationship, adequate assistance during the early neonatal period for breastfeeding and proper guidance to sustain exclusive breastfeeding.","PeriodicalId":16516,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Neonatology","volume":"116 32","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139615133","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}

The dissemination of Acinetobacter and Enterobacterales species were of great importance owing to their high prevalence and resistance against a broad spectrum of available antimicrobials, thereby exacerbating the prognosis for afflicted patients. This study aimed to highlight neonatal sepsis cases caused by MDR Acinetobacter and Enterobacterales in the NICU of a tertiary healthcare center in Surabaya, Indonesia. Methods: This retrospective cohort study was conducted in Dr. Soetomo General Hospital, Surabaya, from January 2020 to August 2022. Documented cases of neonatal sepsis were identified from electronic medical records under the ICD-10 P36 code. Continuous monitoring of blood culture was performed following the initial suspicion of sepsis, complemented with semiautomated antimicrobial susceptibility testing. Results: A total of 75 out of 125 culture-proven neonatal sepsis cases were reported caused by Acinetobacter baumannii ( n = 19; 15.2%) and Enterobacterales ( n = 56; 44.8%) species. These organisms exhibited the MDR rates of 78.9% and 91.1%, respectively. Klebsiella pneumoniae ( K. pneumoniae) emerged as the predominant Enterobacterales, demonstrating an MDR rate of 92.1%. Possible extensively- and possible pan-drug-resistant organisms were also identified at a concerning rate in Acinetobacter (73.7% and 21.1%, respectively) and Enterobacterales (28.6% and 1.8%, respectively). The susceptibility of Acinetobacter to carbapenems was notably low (26.3%), whereas Enterobacterales exhibited a relatively higher susceptibility rate (75%). Notably, 9 and 37 documented deaths were associated with neonatal sepsis because of MDR Acinetobacter and Enterobacterales, respectively. Lower birth weight and shorter length of NICU stay were significantly related to mortality in neonatal sepsis. Conclusion: The alarming rate of MDR underscores further investigations on the extent of inappropriate antibiotic usage in the unit, particularly concerning neonates requiring invasive medical interventions and those with foundational clinical risk factors.","PeriodicalId":16516,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Neonatology","volume":"54 14","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139531831","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}

However, mastitis and lactational breast abscesses (LBAs), pose serious health risks for nursing mothers and are traditionally treated with minor surgery, that often separates mother and child, and causes significant maternal distress. This study investigates dynamic tape (DT) as a nonsurgical intervention for LBAs that will allow breastfeeding even during treatment in postpartum Indian women. Methods: This prospective, observational cohort study was conducted at a tertiary maternity center (Karnataka, India) between October 2017 and December 2018 [CTRI Number/2018/05/013788]. Twenty postpartum women with mastitis and LBA were subjected to dynamic taping (using DT Beige Tattoo or DT Eco based on breast size and abscess location). LBA resolution was confirmed through ultrasonography and clinical examination. Results: Twenty participants (median age = 30 years) completed the study without adverse reactions; 65% practiced exclusive breastfeeding. Lump sizes and pus volumes were significantly reduced after treatment; 60% experienced self-drainage, 35% experienced resolution without self-drainage, and only 5% did not experience resolution; average time to resolution was 13.95 days, with each taping session lasting 3.85 days. The mean lump measurement and pus volume significantly reduced post-treatment from 108.7 cm 3 and 54.58 ml to 3.14 cm 3 and 1.07 ml, respectively, with 95% experiencing abscess resolution.
