Consideration should be given to incorporating this intervention into clinical practice procedures promoting skin-to-skin contact in women undergoing elective caesarean section.
Analysis was based on intention-to-treat.Īctive warming of women significantly reduced neonatal (P=0.02) and maternal (P=0.0027) hypothermia at the end of skin-to-skin contact in the operative theatre, maternal hypothermia on post-anaesthesia care unit admission (P=0.0022) and maternal shivering (P=0.0001).Īdministering warm intravenous fluids during caesarean section when skin-to-skin contact is performed at birth is a safe practice with multiple health benefits for both newborns and their mothers.
#EL HIJO DE PATRICIA RIVERA TRIAL#
This trial compared the effectiveness of warm intravenous and room temperature fluids among women performing at birth skin-to-skin contact on perioperative neonatal and maternal heat loss.Ī double-blind, randomised controlled trial compared warm and room temperature intravenous fluids in 150 healthy women performing at birth skin-to-skin contact while undergoing elective caesarean section. Perioperative hypothermia for women undergoing elective caesarean section is a common comorbidity, which may result in neonatal hypothermia when at-birth skin-to-skin contact is performed. Future research should involve follow-up to determine any long-term effects. Conclusions: A programme that provides academic support and mentorship in the clinical environment along with skills development can build research capacity. Skills development was facilitated by the organisation of workshops and conferences. Sustainability was demonstrated by progression of participants to PhD (n = 3) and research projects that remain ongoing (n = 5). Increased research capacity was demonstrated through dissemination of research in peer-reviewed journals, posters and oral presentations at national and international conferences. Results: Individuals (n = 17) and small research groups (n = 4) were supported. Data were extracted from programme reports, conference proceedings, paper references, and workshop and conference sign-in/evaluation forms. Methods: Document analysis was used to evaluate RCB activities and outputs. Aims: This paper provides an evaluation of the Research Excellence Across Clinical Healthcare (REACH) programme from 2013–2016. Nurses and midwives participated from acute hospital, community, public health, mental health, older adult, intellectual disability, addiction and palliative care settings. The programme was developed and implemented using Cooke’s principles of RCB.
A novel research capacity building (RCB) programme was developed to address existing barriers. Background: A lack of support and research skills development has contributed to low research output by clinically based nurses and midwives in Ireland, including those in specialised and advanced roles.
