Protocol for a Systematic Review of Effects of Parenting Interventions on Early Childhood Development in Low- and Middle-Income Countries

Background: Different non-medical therapies such as Non-nutritive sucking (NNS), oral sucrose with or without NNS (non-nutritive sucking), wrapping with thin blanket or cloth, kangaroo mother care (KMC), songs as well as multi-sensory stimulation are beneficial in pain reduction among neonates and infants. According to the gate control theory, vibrations applied sat a site on the body block the nociceptive signals via the A???? and C fibers reducing the pain perception. When used along with many other nonpharmacological methods, This technique has been shown to minimize discomfort in pain-inducing treatments such as Intravenous cannulation, vaccines, heel prick, etc. The primary purpose of this study is to analyze vibrational therapy effects on infants pain perception, thereby, providing evidence for a better pain management strategy in vaccination centers. Objective: To determine the efficacy of vibration therapy on pain perception by infants during vaccine administration. Material and Methods: Out of total 90 eligible healthy infants who come for routinely immunization will be given either vibrational therapy (interventional group) or breastfeeding(control therapy) after doing randomization in this randomized controlled trial. The baseline vitals include cardiac rate (HR), respiratory rate (RR), and oxygen (SpO2) will be recorded before, during, and after vaccination during this treatment. Similarly, we will report Visual analog scales (VAS), Neonatal Infant Pain Scale (NIPS), and Wong-Baker FACES Pain Rating Scale, Modified Behavioral Pain Scale (MBPS) after giving the vaccine to the infant. Results: After completion of the study we will come to know the effect of vibratory therapy on pain control. The pain intensity with the help of the NIPS score will get less in the vibratory group than in the control group. The level of distress by using the Color Analogue Scale, MBPS scale, and FLACC scale, during the vaccine-related procedure will get a lower score in the infants who has taken vibratory therapy than the control group. Conclusion: study will probably give us information about vibration therapy, which will be an effective method for managing the pain after vaccination in infants.

“…Several factors affect the nutritional status of children in the early childhood period [9][10][11]. Reviews on causal chain analysis [12] and systematic reviews [13][14][15] from this region are available. Socio-cultural determinants of infant and young child feeding practice and careseeking behavior of families for their sick infants in this region were mainly addressed in terms of child nutritional deficiencies and associated deficiency disorders [16][17][18].…”

Background: Protein-energy malnutrition (PEM) is commonly seen in developing countries, especially in infants and young children up to 5 years of age. Edema is one of the characteristic features which occurs due to excessive protein loss or decreased protein intake. It is one of the rising concerns of parents and leads to mortality if untreated. Case Presentation: A 6-year-old male child was brought with complaints of excessive skin lesions and loss of appetite for four months. He sustained burns on his legs four months back, and his general condition worsened at home. Protein-energy malnutrition (PEM) is common among children 6-59 months. The age of presentation in our patients is unusual. We stepped up his nutritive intake, added micronutrients and trace elements, and he recovered with our efforts. Conclusion: We recognized the child’s underlying condition well and started the apt treatment. The child responded well to the nutritional intervention and showed signs of recovery. The age of presentation was rare, which has made us report the case. The parents were counseled well to step up the child’s protein and calorie intake and ensure a tender and stress-free environment at home, enhancing the child’s recovery.

Early childhood development (ECD) encompasses physical, socio-emotional, cognitive, and motor development. The early years are critical because this is the period in life when the brain develops most rapidly and has a high capacity for change, and the foundation is laid for health and wellbeing throughout life. Children benefit from engaging, demanding, and supportive environments to develop these skills, which serve as a framework for healthy self-regulatory practices and academic tenacity. Children have a deep curiosity in observing new things, learning through mimicking their caregivers, and a desire to master new abilities from birth. Early childhood education provided to caregivers assists youngsters in reaching their full potential. It has been discovered that responsive parenting is still not performed and that there are no notions of it in the rural area. Caregivers are still unaware of critical competencies to raise their child; there are negative consequences to the standard authoritarian parenting style; research has shown that an authoritative parenting style is good for the child in the long run. Parents find it difficult, but these early days are critical for the child's brain and body, necessitating enough nutrition, proper stimulation, tender love, and care to help them grow into physically and intellectually sound humans.
