This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Survival is possible for children perinatally exposed to or infected by Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) in the post-combined antiretroviral therapy era, but the long-term effects of HIV exposure on children and their caregivers are still being explored. Identifying factors affecting children's ability to thrive within an HIV context has great public health significance, particularly within a sub-Saharan context where the burden of HIV is felt disproportionately by women and children. Additionally, caregiver mental health is an important focus given its bidirectional relationship with child behavior. Previous studies on these topics have not included a full complement of HIV exposure or infection groups, considered how caregivers' mental health may depend on child serostatus, and or are investigated in HIV endemic areas. The three aims presented in this dissertation will explore how perinatal HIV infection and exposure can affect caregivers and school-aged children. In Aim one, we compare depressive symptoms among caregivers of 3 groups of 6-10 year old children in Uganda with known HIV exposure status: children HIV-infected perinatally (CPHIV, n=102), children born to HIV-infected mothers, but HIV negative (CPHEU, n=101), and HIV-unexposed, uninfected community controls (CHUU, n=103). Caregiver depression symptoms were assessed using the Hopkins Symptom Checklist. In Aims two and three, child executive functioning (EF) assessed by caregiver report was compared across the three HIV exposure groups; effect modification of these associations by social support and wealth was also explored. We used random effects general linear models to estimate mean differences among the three HIV exposure groups. Adjusted models included caregiver age, education, social support, lifetime trauma, and wealth as covariates. In aim one, we observed that perinatal HIV exposure status was associated with mean caregiver depression symptoms. Specifically, in unadjusted analyses, depression symptoms were higher among CPHEU compared to CPHIV caregivers (unstandardized beta coefficient [B]=-3.5, 95% confidence interval [CI] -5.3, -1.8). We also observed that caregiver social support modified the findings above (p

This book was released on 2016-11-21 with total page 525 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Decades of research have demonstrated that the parent-child dyad and the environment of the familyâ€"which includes all primary caregiversâ€"are at the foundation of children's well- being and healthy development. From birth, children are learning and rely on parents and the other caregivers in their lives to protect and care for them. The impact of parents may never be greater than during the earliest years of life, when a child's brain is rapidly developing and when nearly all of her or his experiences are created and shaped by parents and the family environment. Parents help children build and refine their knowledge and skills, charting a trajectory for their health and well-being during childhood and beyond. The experience of parenting also impacts parents themselves. For instance, parenting can enrich and give focus to parents' lives; generate stress or calm; and create any number of emotions, including feelings of happiness, sadness, fulfillment, and anger. Parenting of young children today takes place in the context of significant ongoing developments. These include: a rapidly growing body of science on early childhood, increases in funding for programs and services for families, changing demographics of the U.S. population, and greater diversity of family structure. Additionally, parenting is increasingly being shaped by technology and increased access to information about parenting. Parenting Matters identifies parenting knowledge, attitudes, and practices associated with positive developmental outcomes in children ages 0-8; universal/preventive and targeted strategies used in a variety of settings that have been effective with parents of young children and that support the identified knowledge, attitudes, and practices; and barriers to and facilitators for parents' use of practices that lead to healthy child outcomes as well as their participation in effective programs and services. This report makes recommendations directed at an array of stakeholders, for promoting the wide-scale adoption of effective programs and services for parents and on areas that warrant further research to inform policy and practice. It is meant to serve as a roadmap for the future of parenting policy, research, and practice in the United States.

Download or read book Management of Severe Malnutrition written by World Health Organization and published by . This book was released on 1999-01-01 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This manual provides expert practical guidelines for the management of severely malnourished children. Addressed to doctors and other senior health workers, the manual explains exactly what must be done to save lives, achieve successful management and rehabilitation, prevent relapse, and thus give these children the greatest chance of full recovery. Throughout, the importance of treating severe malnutrition as both a medical and a social disorder is repeatedly emphasized. As successful management does not require sophisticated facilities and equipment or highly qualified personnel, the manual also performs a persuasive function, encouraging health professionals to do all they can to save these children and meet their great need for care and affection. Recommended procedures draw on extensive practical experience as well as several recent therapeutic advances. These include improved solutions of oral rehydration salts for the treatment of dehydration, better understanding of the role of micronutrients in dietary management, and growing evidence that physical and psychological stimulation can help prevent long-term consequences of impaired growth and psychological development. Noting that the physiology of malnourished children is seriously abnormal, the manual gives particular attention to aspects of management - whether involving the interpretation of symptoms or the use of specific interventions - that differ considerably from standard procedures for well-nourished children. Details range from the reasons why IV infusion easily causes overhydration and heart failure, through a list of treatments that have no value and should never be used, to the simple reminder that underarm temperature is not a reliable guide to body temperature in a malnourished child during rewarming. Further practical guidance is provided in eight appendices, which use numerous tables, charts, sample recording forms, instructions for preparing feeds, and examples of easily constructed toys to help ensure that management is thorough, safe, and in line with the latest knowledge.
