Experiences of whānau Māori with pēpi at risk of neonatal hypoglycaemia
Neonatal hypoglycaemia can cause substantial morbidity and mortality. Pēpi Māori (Indigenous infants from Aotearoa New Zealand) are at increased risk. This study explored the lived experience of whānau (extended family kinship groups) Māori having a pēpi at risk of hypoglycaemia. Whānau Māori collectives were interviewed, and transcripts analysed using NVivo software and the Reflexive Thematic Analysis. There were 11 participants (10 whānau colle…
Whānau (immediate and extended family) lived experiences of whakawhānau (birthing process) during Covid-19 in Aotearoa (New Zealand)
This study aims to explore the impacts of COVID-19 on birthing for wāhine (women) and whānau (immediate and extended family) in Aotearoa (New Zealand) during the lockdowns of 2020 and 2021. This rangahau (research) provided whānau with an opportunity to share their whakawhānau (birthing process) experiences via interviews. The data were analysed through interpretative phenomenological analysis. Themes identified in the results included the import…
Culturally Safe Neonatal Care
The burden of health inequities borne by Indigenous peoples can be overwhelming, especially when mothers and newborns' lives are at stake and health services seem slow to invest in responsiveness. In Aotearoa (New Zealand), urgent action is required to eliminate persistent systemic inequities for Māori (Indigenous) whānau (family collectives that extend beyond the household). This Kaupapa Māori (by Māori, for Māori) qualitative study aimed to exp…
Lived Reality of Retinopathy of Prematurity Eye Examinations
Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is an eye condition that predominately affects preterm infants born less than 30+6 weeks gestational age and/or with a birthweight less than 1250 g. If left untreated ROP can result in permanent blindness, and early detection with regular eye examinations and appropriate treatment can prevent this outcome. The necessary eye tests can be invasive for the infant and leave whānau (extended family) feeling distressed …
He Tamariki Kokoti Tau
Māori (Indigenous peoples of Aotearoa New Zealand) bear an unequal burden of poor perinatal health outcomes, including preterm birth. An infant arriving preterm disrupts the birth imaginary of whānau (family collectives) and situates them in a foreign health environment that may not be culturally safe and nurturing. A cross-sectional interpretative phenomenological analysis of first interviews with 19 whānau participating in a Kaupapa Māori (by, …
Child/youth, family and public engagement in paediatric services in high‐income countries
BACKGROUND: Patient and public engagement in paediatric health-care decision making is under-researched, and there is a lack of systematically reviewed literature in this area. OBJECTIVE: To examine the extent, range and nature of published research investigating the engagement of children/youth, families and the public in paediatric service improvement, to summarize key aspects of the research identified and to identify gaps to help inform futur…
Small for Gestational Age and Low Birth Weight Term Admissions to a Tertiary Perinatal Centre in Northern Queensland, Australia
The surveillance of birth defects
To assess the sensitivity and positive predictive value of birth defects reported on the 1989 revision of the US Standard Birth Certificate, a population of 76,862 Atlanta-area births during 1989 and 1990 was used as the basis for comparing 771 birth certificates that reported birth defects with 2428 live-born infant records in a birth defects registry that uses multiple sources of case ascertainment. Only 14% of birth defects in the registry rec…
