BACKGROUND Against a background of failure to prevent neonatal invasive early-onset group B Streptococcus infections (GBS) in our maternity unit using risk-based approach for intrapartum antibiotic prophylaxis, we introduced an antenatal GBS carriage screening programme to identify additional women to target for prophylaxis. OBJECTIVES To describe the implementation and outcome of an antepart...
Regulation of body heat and it's relation to the neonatal mortality and morbidity rate is of great importance, considering the high incidence of hypothermia amongst neonates specially preterm infants. As a whole the knowledge and skills of health team personnel play an important role in regulating infant's body tempreture. Maintaining the right tempreture of neouatal unit, screening the neonate...
OBJECTIVE To estimate the cost-effectiveness of fetal aneuploidy screening in the general pregnancy population using non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) as compared to first trimester combined screening (FTS) with serum markers and NT ultrasound. METHODS Using a decision-analytic model, we estimated the number of fetal T21, T18, and T13 cases identified prenatally, the number of invasive pro...
OBJECTIVE To compare three strategies for gestational diabetes screening (i) screening of high-risk pregnant women with the 50 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT); (ii) screening of all pregnant women with the 50 g OGTT; (iii) screening of all pregnant women according to the 75 g OGTT. STUDY DESIGN Cost-effectiveness analysis. The outcome measures, i.e. macrosomia, prematurity, perinatal mor...
The large majority of the available dysphagia screening tools has been developed for the stroke population. Only few screening tools are suitable for heterogeneous groups of patients admitted to a subacute care unit. The Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital (RBWH) dysphagia screening tool is a nurse-administered, evidence-based swallow screening tool for generic acute hospital use that demonstra...
Congenital hearing loss is estimated to affect one in every 1,000 newborns. Causes of hearing loss can be conductive, sensorineural, mixed, or central. Known risk factors for congenital hearing loss include cytomegalovirus infection and premature birth necessitating a stay in the neonatal intensive care unit. However, up to 42 percent of profoundly hearing-impaired children will be missed using...
The National Breast Screening Programme is an ongoing public health programme. Women between 50 and 64 years are being invited to attend for screening at three yearly intervals. The results of the first 5,000 women screened in the Eastern Health and Social Services Board's unit are presented. The breast cancer detection rate was 7.8 per thousand women screened. The malignant to benign biopsy ra...
A cord-blood screening program, designed primarily for detecting sickle cell disease, has been in operation for seven months (8000 samples) at a large maternity unit in Kingston, Jamaica. We describe techniques of cord-blood collection and electrophoretic investigation on both cellulose acetate and agar gel. These methods appear to give rapid, valid results at minimal expense and are well adapt...
