Validation of telesimulation in the care of late preterm newborns with hypoglycemia for nursing students.

OBJECTIVE: To develop and validate a telesimulation scenario for nursing students in the care of late preterm infants with hypoglycemia. METHODS: A methodological study conducted between August 2021 and May 2022 in a virtual environment involved constructing and validating the scenario with 10 experts, and testing it with 10 students. The content validity index assessed validity, with a threshold of 80% or higher, and suggestions were analyzed using semantic approximation. RESULTS: Validation confirmed the appropriateness of all 14 scenario items, with an overall index of 97.8% and clarity and relevance indices of 98.5%. During testing, the overall index was 99.7%, with the "resources" item receiving the lowest score. Adjustments were made to objectives, technical terms, resources, and target audience based on feedback. CONCLUSION: Telesimulation is a widely accepted educational technology for training nursing students, with potential to enhance teaching quality and neonatal care.

Maternal and neonatal factors associated with hospital readmission of newborns of adolescent mothers.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the maternal and neonatal factors in newborns of adolescent mothers associated with hospital readmission in the neonatal period. METHOD: Quantitative cross-sectional, retrospective and analytical study, with 489 newborns of adolescent mothers, born in 2019 and 2020 in a high-complexity public hospital in southern Brazil. Data were collected through a query and analyzed in the SPSS software using the chi-square or Fisher's exact tests. To control for confounding factors, the multivariate Poisson regression model was used. RESULTS: The prevalence of hospital readmissions for newborns of adolescent mothers was 9.2%, mainly due to respiratory conditions, being the most prevalent the diagnosis of acute bronchiolitis, at 22.3%. CONCLUSION: Neonatal hospital readmission was associated with prematurity, 1st minute Apgar <7 and maternal origin.

Breastfeeding of preterm newborns in a neonate hospitalization unit.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the factors associated with breastfeeding of preterm infants at discharge. METHOD: Cross-sectional study with newborns with gestational age <37 weeks, admitted to a university hospital. Data obtained from the medical records of 180 participants, from August/2019 to August/2020. To assess an association between categorical variables, Pearson's chi-square and Fisher's exact tests were used. The significance level adopted was 5% (p ≤ 0.05). RESULTS: Mean gestational age was 32.8 ± 2.7 weeks and mean birth weight was 1,890 grams ± 682 grams. During hospitalization, (n=166) 28.3% received predominantly breast milk. At discharge, (n=164) 84.1% received breast milk and, of these, 2.4% were exclusively breastfed. Breastfeeding at discharge was associated with gestational age ≥ 33.5 weeks, higher weight at birth, and shorter hospitalization. CONCLUSION: The study showed that during hospitalization, about a third of the participants were breastfed. However, at the time of discharge, there was a predominance of breastfeeding in most cases, and the associated factors were higher weight at birth and shorter hospital stay.

ABSTRACT Objective to analyze the sociodemographic and gestational factors of adolescent mothers associated with prematurity. Methods quantitative, cross-sectional, retrospective, and analytical study, developed with 488 adolescent mothers and their respective 489 newborns. Data were collected by query and analyzed using the SPSS. To verify the association between variables, the Chi-square or Fisher's exact test was used. To control for confounding factors, the multivariate Poisson Regression model was used. Results adolescent mothers were mostly single, with occupation and education inadequate for their age; 76.5% did not have prenatal care appropriate for gestational age. The prevalence of prematurity was 6.6% and was associated with the number of adequate prenatal visits, twin pregnancy, and vaginal delivery. Conclusion prematurity was associated with the number of prenatal visits, type of delivery and pregnancy. Contributions to practice: the study allows health professionals and managers to have more knowledge about the repercussions of teenage pregnancy, as well as the clinical and social outcomes in maternal and child health, such as prematurity, enabling more precise targeting of actions and programs aimed at this problem.

Maternal nutritional status in diabetes mellitus and neonatal characteristics at birth.

OBJECTIVES: to analyze the nutritional status of women with diagnosis of Diabetes mellitus in pregnancy and the newborns' characteristics in relation to health conditions at birth. METHODS: transversal study with data from 394 electronic medical charts (197 newborn and 197 mothers), between 2017 and 2018. Descriptive and analytical statistics. RESULTS: there was prevalence of women with Gestational Diabetes (78.2%), followed by Type II Diabetes (13.7%) and Type I Diabetes (8.1%), and of term births (85.3%) and cesarean deliveries (54.8%). Type I Diabetes was associated to earlier gestational age at birth (p>0.001) and obesity during pregnancy was associated to higher birth weight of newborns (p=0.024). Clinical complications occurred in 37.6% of newborns. Among complications, Type I Diabetes was associated with respiratory disorder (p=0.005), and prematurity was associated with mother's overweight/obesity (p=0.010). CONCLUSIONS: we strongly advise about the need of metabolic and nutritional control during gestations that course with Diabetes mellitus, due occurrence of negative consequences to the newborn´s health at birth.

Prevalence of hypothermia in the first hour of life of premature infants weighing ≤ 1500g.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the prevalence of hypothermia in the first hour of life of preterm infants with birth weight 1,500 g or less. METHOD: A cross-sectional study performed in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. Data obtained from 359 computerized records of premature infants admitted between 2012 and 2016. Descriptive Statistics and Poisson Regression were used. RESULTS: Premature infants (66.9%) presented hypothermia in the first hour of life, with axillary temperature of 36.2ºC (35.7-36.6), associated with: diagnosis of preeclampsia (p = 0.001), small for gestational age (p = 0.029), and the need for chest compression in the delivery room (p = 0.001). In cases of peri-intraventricular hemorrhage grade III (75%) and death (78.9%), there was a prevalence of premature infants with hypothermia in the first hour of life. CONCLUSION: Hypothermia in the first hour of life was prevalent in preter m infants, being associated with clinical complications. The prevention of hypothermia in the first hour of life is fundamental in the reduction of diseases related to prematurity.

Stress experienced by mothers of preterm newborns in a neonatal intensive care unit.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the stress level of mothers of preterm infants with gestational age ≤34 weeks, hospitalized in neonatal intensive care. METHOD: A cross-sectional study with 74 mothers of premature infants in neonatal intensive care, who answered the "Parental Stress Scale: Neonatal Intensive Care Unit" instrument, validated in Brazil. RESULTS: The mean stress level was 4.41 (± 0.77) and the general stress level was 4.36 (± 0.76), with a significant difference (p <0.001) between the subscale "Alteration in parental roles" and other subscales, meaning that mothers were in a very stressful situation. CONCLUSION: All items in the subscale "Alteration in parental roles" of the "Parental Stress Scale: Neonatal Intensive Care Unit" were identified as the main source of stress experienced by mothers. This study suggests carrying out further studies with other methodologies to increase the knowledge of maternal stress in the national context, applying care interventions involving the parents.

Resultados: prevalência de mulheres com Diabetes Gestacional (78,2%), seguido por Diabetes Tipo II (13,7%) e Diabetes Tipo I (8,1%), e de neonatos a termo (85,3%) nascidos por cesariana (54,8%). Diabetes Tipo I foi associado a menor idade gestacional ao nascimento (p<0,001) e gestantes obesas ao maior peso de nascimento (p=0,024). Complicações clínicas ocorreram em 37,6% dos neonatos. Dentre as complicações, Diabetes Tipo I foi associado a distúrbio respiratório (p=0,005), e sobrepeso/obesidade maternos, à prematuridade (p=0,010). Conclusões: reitera-se a necessidade do controle metabólico e nutricional na gestação com Diabetes mellitus, devido ocorrência de consequências negativas no neonato.

Hypothermia and the newborn's bath in the first hours of life. / Hipotermia e banho do recém-nascido nas primeiras horas de vida.

OBJECTIVE: to analyze the occurrence of hypothermia in neonates before and after bathing in the first hours of life. METHOD: a cross-sectional study in which the axillary temperature of newborns before bathing, after bathing, 30 and 60 minutes after bathing was verified at an Obstetric Center. In the statistical analysis, the Chi-Square, Student's t and Mann-Whitney tests were used, with α = 0.05. RESULTS: A total of 149 newborns were included in the study, showing the prevalence of neonatal hypothermia in 40.3% of the cases, with a statistically significant association (p <0.001) between the occurrence of neonatal hypothermia at all axillary temperature assessments. A statistically significant correlation was found between the variables: room temperature and temperature verification 60 minutes after bath (p = 0.032). CONCLUSIONS: It is concluded that the first bath can be postponed to favor the adaptation of the neonate to the extrauterine environment, preventing the occurrence of neonatal hypothermia.

Contato pele a pele entre mãe e recém-nascido e amamentação na primeira hora de vida / Skin-to-skin contact between mother and newborn and breastfeeding in the first hour of life

Introdução: O contato pele a pele (CPP) entre mãe e recém-nascido (RN) é uma intervenção simples, que facilita o processo de transição deste para o meio extra-uterino e favorece o início da amamentação precoce. Este estudo objetivou analisar a prevalência de CPP entre mãe e RN e de amamentação na primeira hora de vida. Métodos: Estudo transversal, conduzido no centro obstétrico de um hospital universitário no sul do Brasil, em que se observou a interação entre mãe e RN a termo e com peso ≥2500g, durante a primeira hora de vida do neonato (n=111). Utilizou-se estatística descritiva, os testes qui-quadrado, exato de Fisher e correção de Yates para análise dos dados. Resultados: A prevalência de CPP foi de 81%, enquanto 52% dos RN foram amamentados no período. O tempo médio para iniciar a sucção ao seio foi de 29±11 minutos de vida, sendo que 47% RN sugaram por até 15 minutos, 41% sugaram por 15-30 minutos e apenas 12% sugaram por mais de 30 minutos. Conclusão: O contato pele a pele favorece o início da amamentação na primeira hora de vida, sendo recomendado como indicador assistencial. (AU)

Introduction: Skin-to-skin contact (SSC) between mother and newborn is a simple intervention that facilitates the baby's process of transition to the extrauterine environment and favors the initiation of early breastfeeding. This study aimed to analyze the prevalence of SSC between mother and newborn and of breastfeeding in the first hour of life (n=111). Methods: A cross-sectional study conducted at the obstetric center of a university hospital in southern Brazil, where the interaction between mother and newborn was observed at term and weighing ≥2500g, during the neonate's first hour of life (n=111). Descriptive statistics, chi-square test, Fisher's exact test and Yates correction were used for data analysis. Results: The prevalence of SSC was 81%, while 52% of the newborns were breastfed in the period. The mean time to start suckling at the breast was 29 ± 11 minutes, with 47% newborns sucking for up to 15 minutes, 41% sucking for 15-30 minutes and only 12% sucking for more than 30 minutes. Conclusions: Skin-to-skin contact favors the initiation of breastfeeding in the first hour of life and is recommended as a care indicator. (AU)
