Article Synopsis
- Family Integrated Care (FICare) has been effective in supporting sick neonates and their families, but its implementation is mostly limited to developed countries, prompting the need for adaptations to make it more widely applicable.
- The RISEinFAMILY project is researching an adapted FICare model through a multinational trial involving several countries, including Spain, the UK, and Zambia, focusing on infant-family dyads in Neonatal Intensive Care Units.
- The study aims to assess how well this new model can work in different cultural and socio-economic settings, while also comparing its effects on newborn outcomes, family mental health, and healthcare professional satisfaction against standard care methods.
Neonatal resuscitation has been poorly instituted in many parts of Africa and most neonatal resuscitation algorithms are adapted from environments with abundant resources. Helping Babies Breathe (HBB) is an algorithm designed for resource-limited situations and most other algorithms are designed for resource-rich countries. However, there are neonatal referral centers in resource-limited countries who may provide more advanced resuscitation.
