The primary objective of this study is to compare the level of stress and comfort of preterm infants when sedation is given during the MIST procedure compared to no sedation.
The aim of the trial is to obtain data on the optimal dose, feasibility and pharmacokinetics of bumetanide when given as an add-on treatment for seizures in full term babies with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE). Bumetanide will be given in a…
To establish normal ranges for the lateral ventricles in neonates with a gestational age ranging from 25 to 42 weeks.
In this multicenter trial we compare resuscitation of preterm neonates with either 5 cm H2O PEEP or 8 cmH2O PEEP. We think resuscitation with 8 cmH2O PEEP results in a better outcome compared to resuscitation with 5 cmH2O PEEP.
Evaluation of the effects of intravenous lipid and extra amino acid supplementation from birth onwards to very low birth weight infants on amino acid turnover and protein accretion. As secondary objectives the safety, energy expenditure and short-…
The development of a disease specific questionnaire to measure the quality of life in children with BPD at age 4-8, that can be answered by the parents.
To evaluate the course of concentrations of oxidative stress parameters and neuro-biomarkers in cord blood, serum and urine of full-term asphyxiated neonates. Furthermore, to investigate whether these concentrations are correlated to hypoxic…
The objective is to study the effectiveness of the Triple P program compared to a control group, for parents and their NICU-graduates with emotional and/or behavioral problems. Effectivenes concerns children's problems, parents' parenting…
To evaluate the bowel function, quality of life and nutritional status in adolescents/adults who experienced an episode of NEC at neonatal age.
This study will answer the question if (repeated) abdominal amnioninfusion after midtrimester PPROM with associated oligohydramnios improves perinatal survival and prevents pulmonary hypoplasia and other neonatal morbidities. Moreover, it will…
A:To get insight whether respiratory support in the neonatal population, as artificially ventilation and Nasal Continously Positive Airway Pressure, will give an increased stress or pain respons which only can be detected by a 24 hours SCA…
The ultimate goal of this research is the clinical implementation of a non-invasive test for prenatal fetal genotyping, including fetal sex determination, using cff DNA in maternal plasma, to replace the current standard practice of invasive tests,…
1. To describe the development of the nature of the immune system in early life in a profile of cytokines, chemokines and adipokines. 2. To evaluate less invasive methods like the use of saliva or less demanding methods like the use of dried bloods…
In the present proposal, we aim to answer whether antenatal allopurinol administration does reduce hypoxic-ischaemic encephalopathy in neonates exposed to intra-uterine asphyxia.
The project aims to gain more insight in the process of bonding between parents and prenature infants, to validate a screening instrument that can be easily adopted in maternity wards of (general) hospitals to detect parents and children at risk for…
To optimize the quality and cost-effectiveness of care for jaundiced neonates in the Isala Klinieken.
