Feeding plate for a newborn with Cleft Palate.pptxSatvikaPrasad
A feeding plate is a prosthetic device used for newborns with a cleft palate to assist in feeding and improve nutrition intake. From a prosthodontic perspective, this plate acts as a barrier between the oral and nasal cavities, facilitating effective sucking and swallowing by providing a more normal anatomical structure. It helps to prevent milk from entering the nasal passage, thereby reducing the risk of aspiration and enhancing the infant's ability to feed efficiently. The feeding plate also aids in the development of the oral muscles and can contribute to better growth and weight gain. Its custom fabrication and proper fitting by a prosthodontist are crucial for ensuring comfort and functionality, as well as for minimizing potential complications. Early intervention with a feeding plate can significantly improve the quality of life for both the infant and the parents.

3. INTRODUCTION:
Many young adults will remember their time spends in
the hospital with fear and trembling because of the
loneliness and pain they felt at an age when they could
not cope alone with these feelings.
The practices in use in some hospitals today have
changed little over the past 20 years, but in others they
have gone through a rapid transition. This has occurred
partially because of findings of research in the social
sciences, partially because of new thinking in child
psychology and partially because of social and
consumer pressure.

or erratic body
movements.

considered punishment for the mother’s.

the nurse can explain the real cause of illness.
If the parents are anxious because they feel that they
are not competent, the nurse can praise things they do
well to increase their self-confidence.
If the parents need help with resolving guilt beyond
that which the nurse can give, they should be referred
to another helpful professional person.

situation one step at a time.

situation.

74. RESEARCH AND JOURNALABSTACT:
1. The concept of hospitalization of children from the view point of
parents and children.
[Iran J Pediatr. Jun 2011; Vol 21 (No 2), Pp: 201-208]
ABSTRACT:
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to reveal a clear picture of the
meaning of hospitalization in children, to show the experience and
behaviour of hospitalized children and to discover the meaning and
understanding of hospitalization in them.
METHODS: This study is a phenomenology study of qualitative
research. The objective group consisted of children 7–11 years old and
their parents hospitalized in the children’s ward of 22 Bahman
Hospital and the surgery ward of 15 Khordad Hospital during the study
(2008). In the method of sampling, an object group of 20 (12 children
and 8 parents) were chosen and interviewed.
75. FINDINGS: The analysis of the interviews and the written
narrations of the participants led to the extraction of 6 inner
themes consisting of sickness, environment, reciprocal
relationship, parents’ personal problems, mental and emotional
matters and a spiritual dimension; all of which define a specific
aspect of the experience of hospital in children and parents.
CONCLUSION: Nurses can ease the process of hospitalization by
showing the importance of experience and feelings of individuals
at the time of hospitalization and help people to adapt themselves
to their new surroundings. This matter can enable the nurses to
utilize methods of helping in the adaptation of individuals and
thus guide the unique powers present in every individual to ease
and quicken recovery.
76. 2. Nursing support for parents of hospitalized children.
[Issues in Comprehensive Paediatric Nursing 2009
Sep;32(3):120-30]
ABSTRACT:
OBJECTIVES: The aim of the study is to describe the quality of
nurse-parent support in Iranian parents of hospitalized children
in paediatric sites.
METHODS: This was a descriptive study using a convenience
sample. Two hundred and thirty parents (183 mothers and 47
fathers) with hospitalized children took part in this survey that
used the Nurse Parent Support Tool (NPST). This validated
instrument has 21 items and 4 subscales (Informational Giving
and Communication Support; Emotional Support; Appraisal
Support and Instrumental Support) and was translated into
Farsi.
77. RESULTS: The total mean of the NPST was M = 4.1 (SD = 0.7).
There was a significant difference between gender of the
parents and the Instrumental Support subscale. Also, there
was significant difference between among education level of
parents and Emotional Support. In addition, there was
significant difference related to the gender of the child and
Information Giving and Communication Support and Appraisal
Support. There was no significant difference in any of the
subscales when analyzed for length of hospitalization, kind of
diseases and age of children.
CONCLUSIONS: The findings indicate that parents received a
high level of support from nurses. Nurses can promote the
quality of family care and should be aware of the importance of
the several types of nursing support in meeting the requests of
parents. It is important that nurses continue to develop their
knowledge about types of communication with the family,
especially in providing support for the parent role.
78. SUMMARIZATION:
So today we had discussed about the followings;
Definition of hospitalization.
Meaning of hospitalization to the children.
Preparation of child and parents for hospitalization.
Effects of hospitalization on child and parents.
Nursing responsibility in care of child and parents.
Research abstract related to the topic.
