TLDR
NIDCAP is a proven framework for providing developmentally supportive care in the NICU, and can mitigate risks of prematurity earlier initiation of NIDCAP led to discharge at a younger post‐menstrual age and quality improvement investigations are effective in addressing critical healthcare needs.About:

Journal ArticleDOI
Neurodevelopment at Age 10 Years of Children Born <28 Weeks With Fetal Growth Restriction.
Steven J. Korzeniewski,Elizabeth N. Allred,Robert M. Joseph,Timothy Heeren,Karl C.K. Kuban,T. Michael O'Shea,Alan Leviton +6 more
TL;DR: The more severe the growth restriction in utero, the lower the level of function on multiple cognitive and academic achievement assessments performed at age 10 years, raising the possibility that whatever adversely affected their intrauterine growth also adversely affected multiple domains of cognitive and neurobehavioral development.
Journal ArticleDOI
Duration and Time Trends in Hospital Stay for Very Preterm Infants Differ Across European Regions.
Rolf F. Maier,Béatrice Blondel,Aurélie Piedvache,Bjoern Misselwitz,Stavros Petrou,Patrick Van Reempts,Francesco Franco,Henrique Barros,Janusz Gadzinowski,Klaus Boerch,Arno van Heijst,Elizabeth S Draper,Jennifer Zeitlin +12 more
TL;DR: A better understanding of the discharge criteria and care practices that contribute to the wide differences in very preterm length of stay across European regions could inform policies to optimize discharge decisions in terms of infant outcomes and health system costs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Filling a significant gap in the cardiac ICU: implementation of individualised developmental care.
TL;DR: Reviewing how developmental care was introduced in a paediatric inpatient cardiac service through multidisciplinary collaborative staff education, clinician support, child neurodevelopment assessment, parent support, and research initiatives finds that it requires a thoughtful and well-planned approach.
Journal ArticleDOI
A pilot study demonstrating the impact of the supporting and enhancing NICU sensory experiences (SENSE) program on the mother and infant.
TL;DR: Preliminary evidence demonstrates improvements in maternal confidence and infant neurobehavioral performance following SENSE implementation, as well as maternal mental health and confidence, following its implementation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Emergent Prophylactic, Reparative and Restorative Brain Interventions for Infants Born Preterm With Cerebral Palsy
TL;DR: The development of novel markers of preterm brain injury is considered, which will undoubtedly lead to improved diagnostic and prognostic capability, and more accurate instruments to assess the efficacy of emerging interventions for this most vulnerable group of infants.

The Improvement Guide: A Practical Approach to Enhancing Organizational Performance
TL;DR: The slogan for quality improvement is, simply, “all improvements involve changes but not all changes are improvements,” and ENM employs this model and method to teach providers in SBHCs to identify practice changes that will lead to improved patient care and help reduce health care costs.

Developmental care for promoting development and preventing morbidity in preterm infants
Amanda J Symington,Janet Pinelli +1 more
TL;DR: The results of the review indicate that developmental care interventions demonstrate some benefit to preterm infants with respect to improved short-term growth outcomes, decreased respiratory support, decreased length and cost of hospital stay, and improved neurodevelopmental outcomes to 24 months corrected age.
Journal ArticleDOI
A systematic review of the effects of early intervention on motor development
TL;DR: It is concluded that the type of intervention that might be beneficial for infants at preterm age differs from the type that is effective in infants who have reached at least term age.
