Development of a single-center quality bundle to prevent sudden unexpected postnatal collapse

Auswirkungen geburtshilflicher Analgesie mit systemischen Opioiden auf das Neugeborene – eine Übersichtsarbeit

“…Auch Simma et al empfehlen eine Überwachung von Neugeborenen, deren Mütter Codein oder andere sedierende Medikamente erhalten (Allgemeinnarkose, Magnesium). Ob ein SUPC auf Grund der möglicherweise eingeschränkten Aufmerksamkeit einer postpartal erschöpften Mutter entsteht oder durch einen potentiellen Übertritt von Medikamenten auf das Kind begünstigt wird, kann nicht abschließend beantwortet werden [46]. Zusammenfassend sind die bekannten Risikofaktoren für einen SUPC die Lagerung der Neugeborenen in Bauchlage, enger Haut-zu-Haut Kontakt zwischen Mutter und Kind, das Liegen in einem gemeinsamen Bett (engl.…”

Heart‐rate agreement between ECG and a new, wireless device during early skin‐to‐skin contact

“…The general aim of the study was to validate a new tool for implementing strategies for SUPC prevention. Most authors agree that parents’ education and periodic clinical monitoring are preventive measures, 18,19 although evidence of efficacy is still lacking. Linguistic barriers, mother's exhaustion or distraction 24 or overworked care givers may limit the effectiveness of educational information and clinical monitoring.…”

“…11,[14][15][16] To prevent SUPC, clinicians adopted different strategies, including infant assessment tools 17,18 and continuous monitoring of physiological parameters. 19 Whereas the function of clinical vigilance is widely recognised, the role of cardiorespiratory monitoring for preventing SUPC is debated and often perceived as unnecessarily invasive, even by care providers. 19 Recent technological developments have focused on creating minimally invasive and easy-to-use devices that maintain effective monitoring.…”

Skin-to-Skin Contact at Birth in the COVID-19 Era: In Need of Help!

“…6 These safety concerns around SSC by health care professionals have been mitigated by interventions aimed to reduce the incidence of SUPC, by providing relevant information to families, and developing specific checklists for the clinical assessment of the neonate. 7,8 The practice of SSC has clearly overcome many cultural and implementation barriers so far. The novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) epidemic represents the most recent, and at the same time, the most challenging hurdle for SSC, due to concerns on the transmission of severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), particularly in the delivery room.…”
