Title : Preterm births : A global health problem Material Type: printed text Authors: Ryan, Jane Greene, Author ; Dogbey, Evelyn, Author Publication Date: 2016 Article on page: p. 278-283 Languages : English (eng)
in MCN > Vol.40 No.5 (Sep-Oct) 2015 [01/24/2016] . - p. 278-283Keywords: Infant; Kangaroo-Mother Care Method: Nurses; Preterm birth premature; World Health Organization. Abstract: Globally, in 2012, there were 15 million babies born preterm. The majority of preterm births occur in resource-poor countries including India, Nigeria Pakistan, and the Democratic Republic of Congo where many die due to lack of basic skilled nursing care. In September 2000, the United Nations signed the Millennium Development Declaration establishing eight Millennium Develop- ment Goals(MDGs). These MDGs provide specific, measurable targets that are designed to provide equitable health to all, particularly the most vulner- able including preterm babies. On May 2, 2014, the World Health Organization specifically targeted the nursing workforce as a key stakeholder in strategies to reduce global prematurity and end preventable preterm newborn deaths. Spe- cific strategies include primary care, screening for risk factors, kangaroo mother care, and early initiation of breastfeeding with exclusive breastfeeding for the first 6 months of life. By sharing our knowledge and skills, nurses can contribute to global actions being taken to end preventable preterm newborn deaths.

Infertile couples may opt for this chosce atter reading enticing Intemet advertisements of global m tourism offering special deals on commercial surrogacy. This is particularly true in India where couples from the United States can transnational surrogacy for less than one-half or even one-third of the costs purchase in the United States, including the cost of travel The majority of surrogate mothers in Inda come from impoverished, poorty educated nural areas of India. Commercial surogacy offers the lure of eaming the equivalent of 5 years of family income This multidisciplinary review of the literature suggests that the issue of commercial surrogacy is complex and infuenced by a number of factors including expensive infertility costs, ease of global travel, and the financial vulnerability of Indian commercial surrogate mothers and their tamilies, Questions are being raised about decision making by the sumogate mother particularly as influenced by gender neguties, power differentials. and inadequate legal protection for the surrogate mother More research is needed to understand cornmercial surrogacy, especial y research inclusive ot the viewpoints of the Indian mothers and their families involved in these transactions.

The practice of FGC/M has been gaining increased attention as women from those countries have been migrating to the United States and Western Europe. The World Health Organization(WHO) has estimated that 125 million women worldwide have undergone FGCIM The practice has serious short-term and long-term physical, obstetric, and psychological complications lt has been proposed by some healthcare professionals that physicians or other healthcare providers should perform the cutting because it would be done under more sanitary conditions that would reduce complications However, the WHO and other organizations have condemned the practice by any medical professional The F procedure is a human rights violation and has been banned by WHO and other organizations and governments This article provides an overview of the current issues related to FGCM and addresses important cultural considerations for nurses caring for women with FGCM Nurses are in a unique position to provide holistic, culturally competent care in a respectul, nonjudgmental atmosphere Nurses have a role in educating women with FGC/M about the complications and care, as education is necessary in the challenge to eradicate the practice of FGC/M.

Title : Measles : Still a significant health threat Material Type: printed text Authors: Lindberg, Claire, Author ; Lanzi, Maria, Author ; Lindberg, Kristen, Author Publication Date: 2016 Article on page: p. 298-305 Languages : English (eng)
in MCN > Vol.40 No.5 (Sep-Oct) 2015 [01/24/2016] . - p. 298-305Keywords: Communicable diseases lmmuniza tion. Measles; Pediatrics, Abstract: Measles(Rubeola), although considered United States, still causes periodic outbreaks. Vaccine re fusal leads to vulnerable pockets of individuals who may become infected once the virus is imported from countries where it is endemic. In turn, these individuals may spread the virus to young infants and to other vulnerable individuals Many healthcare providers are not familiar with this disease or with the factors that contribute to the risk of spread. Measles causes a serious febrle illness that may lead to pneumonia blindness, deafness, neurological disorders, and even death Patients with measles need supportive care and administra tion of oral vitamin A The measles vaccine is highly effective and considered extremely safe, but misinformation about the safety of this and other vaccines has decreased immunization coverage in some areas of the country. Mandatory immuniza- tion laws exist in every state and have been upheld by courts including the United States Supreme Court, but laws and ex emptions vary among states. Nurses can play a strong role in care of patients with measles, case identification, and prevention of transmission. Most importantly, because nurses hold positions of trust in their communities, they should be tireless frontline advocates for immunization, The purpose of this article is to provide information on measles, its transmission, signs and symptoms, treat ment, prevention, and relevant laws and regulations Link for e-copy: ้http://www.lww.com Record link: http://libsearch.siu.ac.th/siu/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=25302 [article] Measles : Still a significant health threat [printed text] / Lindberg, Claire, Author ; Lanzi, Maria, Author ; Lindberg, Kristen, Author . - 2016 . - p. 298-305.

Abstract: Purpose: Among African Americans, breastfeeding rates are lower and obesity rates higher than other ethnicities in the United States. The objective of this systematic review was to examine the correlation between breastfeeding practices and childhood obesity rates among African Americans in the United States. Study Data Source and Eligibility criteria:The cumulative lndex to Nursing and Allied Health Literature(CINAHLI, pubMed, and Google Scholar were searched using the key words African Americans OR Blacks, Breastfeeding, Childhood 0besity OR overweight, andAdolescent obesity OR0verweight Twelve articles met inclusion criteria and are discussed. Results: No randomized controlled trials or meta-analyses were found. All studies were observational only. Eight studies found a protective effect of breastfeeding against childhood obesity among African Americans, whereas four other studies were inconclusive. Limitations: Only 12 studies met inclusion criteria for this review, and all studies included other ethnicities in addition to African Americans. More evidence is needed to effectively generalize the results to this population. Conclusions and lmplications: More research is needed on the topic, however, current research does suggest a protective effect of breastfeeding against childhood obesity in this high-risk population. Primary care providers and other healthcare workers need to address breastfeeding benefits and barriers among African American women across the continuum of care Link for e-copy: ้http://www.lww.com Record link: http://libsearch.siu.ac.th/siu/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=25304 [article] Breastfeeding and childhood obesity among african americans : A systematic review [printed text] / Hess, Camber, Author ; Ofei, Agatha, Author ; Mincher, Alicia, Author . - 2016 . - p. 313-319.

Abstract: The purpose of this systematic review of the literature is to highlight published studies of perinatal substance use disorder that address relational aspects of various care delivery models to identify opportunities for future studies in this area Method: Quantitative, qualitative, and mixed-methods studies that included relational variables, such as healthcare provider engagement with pregnant women and facilitation of maternal-infant bonding were identified using PubMed, Scopus, and EBSCO databases. Key words included neonatal abstinence syndrome, drug, opioid, substance dependence, and pregnancy Results: Six studies included in this review identified statistically and/ or clinically significant positive maternal and neonatal outcomes thought to be linked to engagement in antenatal care and development of caring relationships with healthcare providers. Implications/Conclusion: Comprehensive, integrated multidisciplinary services for pregnant women with substance use disorder aimed at harm reduction are showing positive results. Evidence exists that pregnant women's engagement with comprehensive services facilitated by caring relationships with healthcare providers may improve perinatal outcomes. Gaps in the literature remaini studies have yet to identify the relative contribution of multiple risk factors to adverse outcomes as well as program components most likely to improve outcomes.
