Identifying and developing strategies for implementation of a guided internet- and mobile-based infant sleep intervention in well-baby and community mental health clinics using group concept mapping.

Background: This study aimed to identify strategies for the implementation of a guided internet- and mobile-based intervention (IMI) for infant sleep problems ("Sleep Well, Little Sweetheart") in well-baby and community mental health clinics.

Study Design: We used group concept mapping, a two-phased mixed methods approach, conducted as a two-day workshop in each clinic. We recruited 20 participants from four clinics and collected sorting and rating data for implementation strategies based on the Expert Recommendations for Implementing Change taxonomy and brainstorming sessions.

Internet-based interventions for parents with children 0-5 years: A scoping review.

Aim: This study aims to review the existing literature on Internet-based health interventions directed to support parents of children aged 0-5 years.

Methods: We systematically searched electronic databases between January 2000 and 2018. The search consisted of terms describing eHealth, intervention and families and/or children.

The effect of relationship-based interventions for maltreated children and adolescents: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Child maltreatment is characterized by a harmful relational environment which can have negative cascading consequences for the child's development. Relationship-based interventions may improve maltreated children's functioning by addressing key aspects of the parent-child relationship at various stages of development. The objective of the current study was to perform a systematic review on relationship-based interventions for maltreated children and a meta-analysis on the impact of these interventions on observed parent-child relational behavior.

To see or not to see - or to wait and see: clinical decisions in an oncological emergency telephone consultation.

Background: Cancer treatment is often given on an outpatient basis. An oncological emergency telephone line has been established to improve access to cancer care and prevent life-threatening side effects. However, healthcare professionals need to make clinical decisions without being able to assess patients face-to-face, which may be problematic.

Managing the absent clinical eye in calls to an oncological emergency telephone - a focus group study.

Background: Telephone consultations are common in supporting patients and caregivers in managing symptoms from cancer diseases and side effects from cancer treatment. In connection with telephone consultations, it may be a challenge that healthcare professionals have to rely on their auditory sense alone when they assess whether the problem can be solved over the telephone, or whether patients need an examination face to face.

Objective: To explore how healthcare professionals identify patients' essential concerns and assess serious conditions in calls to an oncological emergency telephone without face-to-face contact.

Calling an Oncological Emergency Telephone to Seek Advice: An Interview Study.

Background: Cancer treatment is increasingly provided on an outpatient basis, which may challenge patients and caregivers coping with illness and adverse effects at home. A telephone consultation is an accepted type of healthcare provision to support patients and prevent adverse outcomes when their capacity to self-manage is inadequate. Whether this option for help sufficiently supports patients needs further investigation.

The role of responsibility in oncological emergency telephone calls.

Background: Patients and their caregivers are expected to take joint responsibility for reporting symptoms and seeking medical assistance, for example, by calling oncology emergency telephones or other helplines during a cancer trajectory.

Research Objective: The aim was to explore the meaning of responsibility as it appeared in patients' or caregivers' experiences of calling an oncological emergency telephone.

Design, Participants And Context: Inspired by qualitative description and qualitative content analysis, a secondary analysis of data from interviews with 12 participants calling the oncological emergency telephone at a Danish university hospital was performed.

Quality of social interaction in foster dyads at child age 2 and 3 years.

The main aim of this study was to investigate the quality of social interaction between 60 foster parents and their foster children compared to a group of 55 non-foster families at 2 (T1) and again at 3 (T2) years of age. Video observations were used to investigate child-parent interaction at both time-points. "This is My Baby" interview was administered to investigate foster parents' commitment at T1.

The relation of dissociation and mind wandering to unresolved/disorganized attachment: an experience sampling study.

Individuals with unresolved/disorganized representations of childhood trauma (U/d attachment) report more psychological distress than others, but little is known about their everyday mentation. In the present study adults with childhood trauma (N = 45) completed the Berkeley-Leiden Adult Attachment Questionnaire-Unresolved (BLAAQ-U) and the Adult Attachment Interview (AAI), and reported everyday mentation during 5 days of experience sampling. The BLAAQ-U and the AAI showed a medium association with each other, but only the former significantly predicted negative affect, dissociation, and low control/awareness of mentation.

[Young Foster Children's Attachment and Socio-emotional Functioning - A Norwegian Prospective and Longitudinal Study].

The main aim of the present study was to investigate 60 young foster children's attachment to their foster parents and their socio-emotional functioning at age two and three years compared to 42 low-risk children. At age two, the children were seen in the Strange Situation Procedure (SSP), and a foster parental report was used to investigate socio-emotional functioning. A majority of the foster children was classified as securely attached at both time points, and no significant group difference was detected.

Foster parents' state of mind with respect to attachment: concordance with their foster children's attachment patterns at 2 and 3 years of age.

The present study investigated the possible differences between foster and comparison parents' state of mind with respect to attachment, and the concordance between caregiver state of mind and child attachment classifications among 60 foster children, all placed before the age of 2 years, as well as 42 comparison children. Caregiver state of mind was measured when the children were 2 years old (Time 1) while child attachment classifications were assessed at age 2 and again at age 3 years (Time 2). The associations between foster children's attachment, age at first and final placements, number of placements, and reasons for placement also were investigated.

Attachment security in young foster children: continuity from 2 to 3 years of age.

The present study investigated attachment patterns among 60 foster children (FC) and 42 comparison children (CC) at 2 years (T1) and again at 3 years (T2) of age, as well as stability from T1 to T2. Descriptive analyses, including cross-tabulation, were used to present attachment patterns, group differences and stability from T1 to T2. Most FC were securely attached at T1, and no group differences were identified; neither the FC nor CC differed from typical children in their attachment patterns.

Cognitive development and social-emotional functioning in young foster children: a follow-up study from 2 to 3 years of age.

Foster children (FC) are at risk of delayed development relative to their peers due to early caregiver disruptions and adverse experiences prior to placement. Descriptive analyses and linear mixed effects (LME models) were used to analyse the cognitive development and social-emotional functioning of 60 FC and 42 comparison children (CC) at 2 (T1) and 3 years (T2). Changes in group differences between T1 and T2 were examined, and significant group differences occurred on all cognitive scales, with the FC obtaining lower scores than the CC.

A tele-obstetric broadband service including ultrasound, videoconferencing and cardiotocogram. A high cost and a low volume of patients.

We established a tele-obstetric service connecting the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology at the Nordland Hospital in Bodø to the delivery unit at the Nordland Hospital in Lofoten. The telemedicine service included a videoconferencing link (3 Mbit/s) for transmission of ultrasound scans and a low-speed data link (telephone modem) for transmission of cardiotocograms (CTGs). One hundred and thirty pregnant women entered the antenatal clinic in Lofoten during the eight-month study period.
