AbstractOne opinion among people who are experienced in hand rearing Newborn mammals is that goat milk is more suitable than cow milk if the young needs a milk replacer. The purpose of this literature review was to find out if there is scientific evidence that goat milk is a better milk replacer for piglets, rat pups and foals than cow milk. The milk is essential for the Newborn animal, as its only source of nutrition until it has learned how to eat solid food. In this literature review, the composition of goat milk and cow milk is compared with the nutrient requirements after birth in piglets, rat pups and foals. The nutrient requirements and the milk composition are partly determined by the Newborn mammals activity level and suckling frequency, which also is described.

Newborn Individualized Development Care and Assessment Program (NIDCAP) är en modell för omvårdnad av prematura barn samt dess familj och ett huvudsyfte med denna modell är att stödja utvecklingen av barnet. I Sverige kallas NIDCAP för familjecentrerad utvecklings-stödjande neonatalvård. Enligt internationell praxis anges en okomplicerad graviditet ha en längd av ca 280 dagar, 40 veckor. En fullgången graviditet varar från 37+0 till 41+6 veckor. De flesta av de prematurt födda barnen har en medicinsk komplikation.Syftet var att belysa hur NIDCAP påverkar det prematura barnets utveckling.Metoden för studien var en forskningsöversikt.

Introduction: About 160 children with Down syndrome are born each year in Sweden. They will spend their first time in life at the neonatal departments around the country. Previous research has shown that parents in these situations have experienced an unsatisfying behaviour from the caregivers and that they are not getting the care they desire. However the research that reflects the nurses? role in these situations is sparsely studied.

To be preborn and treated in a hightech environment, will expose the child for an abnormal stimulance. Immature lungs and brain are accountable for the biggest healthrisks. The medical treatment will affect the childs future development. Nursing according to NIDCAP®, Newborn Individualized Developmental Care and Assessment Program, aims at reducing the surrounding disturbance in relation to the childs maturity. The aim for this literature study is to survey the affects of NIDCAP®-nursing. The literature study is based upon scientific articles.

Bakgrund: Att föda barn är en av de mest betydelsefulla händelserna i en kvinnas liv. Direkt efter förlossningen sker den första interaktionen mellan mamma och barn. Om barnet behöver avancerat omhändertagande bryts den första interaktionen. Tidigare forskning visar att interaktion och tidig hud mot hud kontakt mellan mamma och barn är betydelsefullt för anknytningen. För att kunna främja anknytningen och stödja den nyblivna mamman måste barnmorskan ha kunskaper i vad som påverkar mammors upplevelser av en separation med deras nyfödda barn.

I Sverige sker cirka 2500 transporter av nyfödda barn varje år. Socialstyrelsen publicerade i slutet av år 2013 en ny vägledning ?Vård av extremt tidigt födda barn?. Ett av de områden som har prioriterats är neonatala transporter. Betydelsen av en väl fungerande transportorganisation är nödvändig för att skapa en säker och jämlik vård för denna patientgrupp.

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of large amounts of straw in the farrowing pen on thermal regulation of the Newborn piglet in different weight classes. 20 sows were given 15 kg of straw in the farrowing pen 2 days prior to until 7 days after parturition. A control group of 18 sows had no straw in the pen. 6 litters from each treatment were observed. Measurements of piglet body temperature were made at 0h, 2h, 4h, 8h and 24h after parturition. At ?8h? the body temperature of the piglets in the Straw group were significantly higher (P=0,0149) than the piglets in the Control group.

Background:Breast milk has many good qualities and recommendations declare that breast milk alone is the most favorable choice for Newborn babies up to six months of age. When the mother can´t provide her own breast milk for her baby, donor milk is a valuable source. Unfortunately the demand is often higher than the supply and thereby milk banks suffer from shortages. Aim: Highlighting women's experiences of being milk donors. Method: The study has been conducted as a literature review in which existing research has been used.

Background: Almost every 20th child is borne premature in Sweden, before the parents are ready to care for a new family member. The parents need to cope with the stress and anxiety of having their Newborn child in the neonatal ward and influenced by nursing care of neonatal staff grow their parental role.Purpose: The aim of this study was to illustrate experiences of parenthood within the care of premature at the neonatal ward.Method: A review where 18 articles between 2000 and 2005 were chosen and examined. The articles were analysed according to VIPS, which facilitates the practical use of the result.Result: The study reveals that parenthood is experienced as a time dependent process with three phases, primary, secondary and tertiary, where the parent?s needs and experiences changed character. The parents experienced that they developed from passive to active in the care of the premature child when the neonatal staff guided their participation, gave information/education and support.

Det föds drygt 110.000 barn i Sverige varje år och nästan 10% behöver neonatalvård på grund av för tidig födsel eller sjukdom. I denna situation befinner sig föräldrarna i en värld fylld med oro och ovisshet över sitt barns överlevnad och utveckling, vilket kan skapa en kris hos föräldrarna. För att sjuksköterskan i omvårdnaden ska kunna bemöta föräldrar på ett adekvat sätt då deras barn är beroende av sjukhusvård, bör behovet av stöd belysas, vilket var syftet med denna litteraturstudie. Fyra kategorier speglar resultatet för att beskriva olika behov av stöd; Stöd i främmande miljö, Stöd genom att skapa närhet, Stöd genom information och Stöd genom kommunikation och delaktighet. Sjuksköterskans uppmuntran och stöd har betydelse för föräldrars delaktighet i omvårdnaden av deras barn och       därigenom få möjlighet att hantera situationen.

Several factors affect the heifer´s growth and development, the Newborn calf´s feeding of co-lostrum during its first hours of life is one important factor. The colostrum contains higher amount of immunoglobulins and insulin growth factors compared to matured milk. A high intake of immunoglobulins from colostrum results in a high blood concentration of immuno-globulins until the age of eight months. This leads to a lower incidence of diseases that can affect the growth and development negatively. Diarrhea is the most common disease in calves younger than 30 days.

Science and technology has been the bedrock of human growth and dynamism. Man has over the years distinguished his existence from all other beings by his ability to champion and fashion his existence. Among his tools is biotechnology which actually attenuates the fears of aging and death.Human reproductive cloning stands out as one of the means through which biotechnology plans to achieve this perfect existence for man. Technological advancements in the field of biotechnology are now in the threshold of human procreation.Human reproductive cloning is seen as an assisted method of reproduction which creates a Newborn that is genetically identical to another human being.Human reproductive cloning as a technology and as a means of reproduction is not without its pros and cons. In as much as the technology promises to mention but a few, hope for the infertile couples and single parents, as well as the hope of reproduction without passing on hereditary diseases; it at the same time beeps some flashes of worry.

Föräldraskapet är en upplevelse som de flesta ser fram emot, men ibland uppstår komplikationer. Barnet behöver extra vård och föräldrarnas föreställningar kring tiden med det nyfödda barnet blir omkullkastade. Syftet med denna litteraturstudie är att beskriva föräldrarnas upplevelse av att deras nyfödda barn vårdas på neonatalavdelning. Metoden som används är en systematisk litteraturstudie där tidigare forskning inom området sammanställs. Använda databaser för sökningen av artiklar är Elin@Kalmar, Cinahl och PsychInfo.

In modern dairy production, the Newborn calf generally is separated from its mother and put in a single pen for some time before it is introduced to group housing. Group housing is becoming more and more common because it saves the farmer a lot of valuable time. Even thought group housing has a lot of benefits it is often associated with a higher morbidity and mortality in the young calves. Therefore, knowing the optimal way to use the group pen lies in many farmers? interests and the importance of different factors such as the optimal age of introduction is important to evaluate. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of age at introduction to group housing on the health of the calves in the group pen.

Syftet med denna litteraturstudie var att beskriva vilken aktuell vetenskap som lett till rekommendationen av att administrera sockerlösning till nyfödda barn i smärtlindrande syfte, i samband med hälstick/venpunktion. Litteraturstudien var av kvantitativ, deskriptiv art. Data analyserades med hjälp av Forsberg och Wengströms granskningsmall för randomiserade kontrollerade studier. De studier som granskades i denna uppsats visade genomgående att sockerlösningen har betydelse för smärtlindringen hos det nyfödda barnet som genomgått någon form av procedursmärta. Vad gäller styrkan på sockerlösningarna kunde konstateras att högre styrka gav bättre effekt.
