Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The discipline of bioethics came into being in the early 1970s in the wake of the major societal revolutions of the 1960s and the rapid rise of medical technology. Neonatology was first recognized as a subspecialty within the field of pediatrics in 1975. The extent to which advances in medical technology have transformed the field of neonatology is unmatched by those in any other field. This transformation has, in turn, given rise to ethical dilemmas in neonatal intensive care units with a regularity and intensity equally unmatched. In spite of this, very few fellowships in neonatal-perinatal medicine offer formal education and training in ethics. This thesis will begin with a historical overview of prior efforts at ethics education in American medical schools, pediatric residency programs, and neonatology fellowships. The second and third chapters will describe and critically analyze a pilot educational module in ethics designed for and presented to the Division of Neonatology at Wake Forest School of Medicine. In closing, recommendations for future endeavors in ethics education for neonatology training programs will be outlined.

Download or read book Helping Low Birth Weight Premature Babies written by Ruth T. Gross and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 1997 with total page 694 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Each year in the United States, 250,000 infants are born too soon, weighing too little. For these low birth weight, premature infants, the future is uncertain, since they are at risk for a variety of serious medical and developmental problemsincluding behavioral and learning disorders that may have damaging effects for the rest of their lives. The extent to which a comprehensive early intervention program could improve or prevent these adverse outcomes was examined in the Infant Health and Development Program, a randomized controlled trial involving almost 1,000 infants in eight cities in the United States. This book describes in detail the program, its research methodology, the progress of the program, and the results of the clinical trial. The program was administered by an interdisciplinary team composed of physicians, biostatisticians, child development specialists, and researchers from several disciplines. It was instituted upon the discharge of the infants from the neonatal nursery and was maintained for three years. One-third of the infants were randomly assigned to an intervention group, the remainder to a follow-up group. Infants in both groups received pediatric care and community referral services, but only those in the intervention group participated in a program that included extensive home visits, attendance at a child development center, and group meetings for parents. The results of the program proved to be clinically important; at age three, the children in the intervention group had significantly higher IQ scores, greater cognitive development, and fewer behavioral problems. The implications of the findings for public policy are equally important, for there is increasing interest in the prevention, early detection, and management of developmental disabilities in children, as evidenced by such legislation as the Education for All Children Act. Strategies to minimize the problems of low birth weight children, with their potential for long-term savings through the prevention of disabilities and their attendant costs, could have significant repercussions in such governmental areas as medical care, education, and social welfare.

Download or read book Training the Future Child Health Care Workforce to Improve the Behavioral Health of Children Youth and Families written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2017-11-30 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Increasing numbers of evidence-based interventions have proven effective in preventing and treating behavioral disorders in children. However, the adoption of these interventions in the health care system and other systems that affect the lives of children has been slow. Moreover, with few exceptions, current training in many fields that involve the behavioral health of children falls short of meeting the needs that exist. In general, this training fails to recognize that behavioral health disorders are among the largest challenges in child health and that changing cognitive, affective, and behavioral health outcomes for children will require new and more integrated forms of care at a population level in the United States. To examine the need for workforce development across the range of health care professions working with children and families, as well as to identify innovative training models and levers to enhance training, the Forum on Promoting Children's Cognitive, Affective, and Behavioral Health held a workshop in November 2016. Workshop panelists and participants discussed the needs for workforce development across the range of health care professions working with children, youth, and families, and identified innovative training models and levers for change to enhance training. This publication summarizes the presentations and discussions from the workshop.

Download or read book Neonatology written by Dara Brodsky and published by LWW. This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "As a pediatric subspecialty, neonatology poses a special challenge for residents: rotations are short, but care for preterm and critically ill patients is complex. Despite residents brief exposure to neonatology, they're expected to have a good understanding of key concepts, diagnoses and therapies when they sit for the boards. Attendings often struggle with how best to teach these concepts, because residents don't always have exposure to the range of babies they need to see to have a good foundation in this area. Neonatology Case-Based Review addresses this information gap by presenting 112 case-based multiple-choice questions in neonatology. Cases are mapped to the American Board of Pediatrics Content Specifications for pediatric residents; the Review is appropriate for residents entering their neonatology rotation, as an introduction to the subspecialty, and again as they study for their boards. Answers include rationales so that the Review is a comprehensive teaching guide for attendings as well."--Publisher's website.
