Чтоб были счастливыми дети! 5 6 PREFACE The First International Congress "Psychological Trauma: Prenatal, Perinatal & Postnatal aspects (PTPPPA 2015)” was successfully held in Belgrade, Serbia, during 15-17 May 2015. This Congress was organized by Life Activities Advancement Center – Serbia, The Institute for Experimental Phonetics and Speech Pathology – Serbia, and The International Society of Pre- and Perinatal Psychology and Medicine – Germany. The Congress was organized under the auspices of Ministry of Education, Science and Technological Development – Republic of Serbia, Association for Prenatal and Perinatal Psychology and Health – USA, Cosmoanelixis, Prenatal & Life Sciences – Greece, and DRF Fund for Promoting Holistic Research and Ecology of Consciousness – Serbia. We kindly acknowledge all of them, and also our Scientific Committee, Organizing Committee, and Secretariat – and particularly all our participants who have presented fifteen plenary lectures, nineteen oral presentations, nine poster presentations, and three workshops. It was the first Congress devoted to the comparative analysis of prenatal, perinatal and postnatal psychological traumas and their interaction. The aim of the Congress was to summarize modern knowledge in biology, medicine, psychology, including prenatal and postnatal phases of life, and other natural sciences, in order to give the impulse for the intensification of research of psychological traumas and their consequences. This is necessary for better understanding of these phenomena and providing opportunity to find the more effective approaches and techniques of their diagnostics, therapy and prophylaxis. A special attention was given to: (i) Possibilities of diagnostics of prenatal, perinatal, and postnatal psychological traumas – separately and/or by their combination, (ii) Therapy of patients with such psychological traumas, (iii) Trans-generation passing of such psychological traumas, (iv) Eliminating or reducing the impact of distorted information on psychosomatic condition and functioning of a person, and (v) Topicality of prophylactics of prenatal, perinatal, and postnatal traumas, in which the whole humankind should be involved. The presentations included Theoretical aspects of consciousness, thinking, and psychological traumas (Part I), Prenatal and perinatal aspects of psychological traumas and their treatments (Part II), and Ways of diagnostics, treatment, and prevention of psychological traumas in general (Part III). All presentations even different in contents were quite interesting, providing new information and new fresh ideas. So, participants of the Congress (psychologists and psychotherapists, obstetricians- gynecologists and other physicians, biophysicists and engineers, and other specialists) have estimated this forum as a very successful event. The three intriguing workshops were also presented: (i) Tashaev’s on Relief in Psychological and Psychosomatic Traumas by Means of Body Discomfort Personification, (ii) Gouni’s on Applying the Salutogenic Principles in the field of Prenatal Psychology or How Can Our Children Live a Better Quality of Life, and (iii) J&T Turners’ on substantiation of the Whole-Self Prebirth Psychodiagnostics and an interpretation of the efficacy of the Whole-Self Prebirth Psychology, Psychotherapy, Philosophy and Education in human relationships. Globally, the conclusions of presented papers provided the following message: (i) For understanding development of human consciousness, communication, behaviour and learning, we must apply a holistic approach from the prenatal period, from preconception, because a man is a unique expression of trans-generational characteristics of his ancestors and interactions with closer and wider environment; (ii) If in considering development of communication and behaviour we do not perceive this fact, we might consequently come into a situation of not being able to have substantial insight into our own situation and behaviour, and even less of the others; (iii) Experts who 7 deal with child development, upbringing and education, should complement their knowledge with the art of composing and interpreting genealogic tree (somatic, psychological, spiritual), thus gaining holistic insight into the complete development of a person from the moment of conception, and being adequately prepared to support young generations properly. We look forward to organizing our next Congress on this exciting and important field soon. Editors 8 CONGRESS REPORT TO ISPPM AND APPPAH By Dr. Rupert Linder, Past President of ISPPM I want to describe to you some impressions of the Prenatal Trauma Congress from May 2015 in Belgrade. It was organized by our most appreciated old friend Grigori Brekhman together with Mirjana Sovilj and Dejan Rakovic from Belgrade. The atmosphere of the place was lovely – a recently new build comfortable Hotel adjacent to the Sava river – a little above its flowing into the Danube. Although the issue of prenatal trauma certainly is no light fare, it got better digestable by the friendliness of the organizing staff and the lot of experienced older and young presenters from the impressingly busy Institute for Experimental Phonetics and Speech Pathology in Belgrade. There have been friendly connections since decades with the

Medical Publishing, Inc. St. Louis FOREWORD Safeguarding the health and well-being of all children has been an increasing focus of modern society. We have come far from the days when parents considered their children “property.” Along the way we have instituted many measures to improve the health of children: immunizations, car seats, lead detection and abatement, the “Back to Sleep” campaign, and the “Reach Out and Read” campaign, to name a few. The battle against child abuse and neglect has also made significant strides, although the war is far from over. Twenty years ago our knowledge of normal anogenital anatomy in children was just beginning to emerge, and disclosures about child sexual abuse were often discounted as stories confabulated by children. Secrets about being molested remain hidden in many cases, but sometimes they do surface in the psychiatric and medical complaints of adult men and women. It is hoped that research as well as professional and lay educational efforts have lessened the disease burden of many sexually abused individuals.

  • Healing the Body-Mind in Heart-Centered Therapies
    Journal of Heart-Centered Therapies, 2006, Vol. 9, No. 2, pp. 75-137 © 2006 Heart-Centered Therapies Association Healing the Body-Mind in Heart-Centered Therapies David Hartman, MSW and Diane Zimberoff, M.A. * Abstract: Some of the most profound influences on human behavior may be found within the deep evolutionary streams of human nature, flowing through the hormonal and nervous systems, regulated by the instinctual “reptilian brain” (limbic system). These archaic, archetypal patterns, when denied or thwarted or undischarged, split off from the whole self and become trapped in the body. That is where we find them, and how we heal them. We assess the damaging effects of traumatic response in the womb and in childhood. If a person tends toward hyperarousal (fight/flight) response that is not effectively discharged, his/her body will tend to utilize parasympathetic dissociation as a defensive effort to achieve the semblance of homeostasis. If a person tends toward hyporarousal (freeze) response that is not effectively discharged, his/her body will tend to utilize sympathetic dissociation to achieve the semblance of homeostasis. The area of the body that is not feeling (parasympathetic dissociation) can be equally as important an indicator of stored trauma as body parts that do feel (sympathetic dissociation). We review the Theory of Structural Dissociation proposed by Nijenhuis as a way to understand the common alternation between re-experiencing trauma and detachment from or unawareness of the trauma. The primary emotions are regulated neurally. The emotional operating systems proposed by Panksepp can be divided into the primordial set (FEAR, RAGE, and SEEKING) basic to survival; and the social set (LUST, PANIC, CARE and PLAY) characteristic of mammals, which depend on the creation and maintenance of social bonds for survival.

  • The Vulnerable Prenate. William R. Emerson
    Correct Variant The Vulnerable Prenate William R. Emerson (USA) Abstract. Emerson reports on the effects of prenatal traumas, drawing on his 20 years of research into the significance of prenatal and perinatal experiences for an individual’s life-history. More than one trauma is usually involved. Emerson assumes that children can experience consciously before birth and also have a prenatal memory. A number of examples are given to illustrate this. One of Emerson’s important findings is that prenatal traumas may result in complications at birth. In particular, a child that suffers injury before birth may experience a normal birth as traumatic. Another significant observation is that prenatal and perinatal traumas impede an individual’s ability to form relationships and predispose him or her to violence later on. An increasing number of therapists are now able to deal with the effects of prenatal and perinatal traumas in the therapeutic setting. * The prenate (i.e., the unborn baby) is vulnerable in a number of ways that are generally unrecognized and unarticulated. Most people think or assume that prenates are unaware, and seldom attribute to them the status of being human. I recall a recent train trip, where an expectant mother sat in a smoking car filled with boisterous and noisy people. I asked her whether she had any concern for her unborn baby, and whether she thought the smoke or the noise would be bothersome to her unborn child. Her reply was, “Well of course not, my dear. They are not very intelligent or awake yet.” Nothing could be further from the truth.

    and treat pain Reducing pain with needle procedures Our Objective Design, test & deploy the clinical practices, and foster the culture, required to eliminate all needless pain and to minimize all moderate and severe physical pain and distress…………… Goal: To partner with patients and families to create a better patient experience. Scope: All acute and procedural pain Initial efforts : We started with needle procedures, because the majority of patients and families named them as their (child’s)worst pain. This will include: Lab draws ,POC testing, injections, PIV starts, PICC placements, arterial sticks or line placements, and PAC access. 2 | © 2013 Needle Procedures Current staff attitudes: •Needles don’t hurt that much, especially finger sticks. • The pain of a needle stick is unavoidable… •“So just get it the first time and do it quick!” Current reality: •Needle sticks do hurt and cause anxiety(most kids rate them 6/10). •Finger and heel sticks are usually more painful, take longer, and may require more than 1 stick. •We have solid evidence on how to reduce or eliminate needle pain. 3 | © 2013 Why do we care? • Most children receive a minimum of 18 needle procedures, in their first year of life. • If they were born pre-term the exposure is significantly higher; − Critically ill infant may experience >480 painful procedures during NICU stay. − Neonates at 33 weeks gestational age admitted to NICU experienced an average of 10 painful procedures/day; 79 %were performed without any type of analgesia.

Introduction The presence of pain is one of the most common reasons people seek health care services. National surveys have found that persistent pain—defined as pain lasting longer than 3 months—affects approximately 100 million American adults, roughly one-third of the United States (US) population, and that the economic costs attributable to such pain approach $600 billion annually.1 With the prevalence of individuals seeking relief from pain, the rise of the opioid crisis came front and center in the United States. In 2021, The American Physical Therapy Association (APTA) updated a published white paper detailing the role physical therapists (PT) have in the treatment of pain and ultimately, the opioid crisis.2 The white paper explicitly states, “Physical therapists, who engage in an examination process that focuses on not only the symptoms of pain but also the movement patterns that may be contributing to pain, must become central to this multidisciplinary strategy.”2(p5) Physical therapists must work collaboratively with patients, health care providers, payers, and legislators to help stop the opioid crisis, but with this call to arms, there is a need for evidence informed knowledge and skills to appropriately address those in pain.

No text of specified style in document. Disclaimer The recommendations in this guideline represent the view of NICE, arrived at after careful consideration of the evidence available. When exercising their judgement, professionals are expected to take this guideline fully into account, alongside the individual needs, preferences and values of their patients or service users. The recommendations in this guideline are not mandatory and the guideline does not override the responsibility of healthcare professionals to make decisions appropriate to the circumstances of the individual patient, in consultation with the patient and/or their carer or guardian. Local commissioners and/or providers have a responsibility to enable the guideline to be applied when individual health professionals and their patients or service users wish to use it. They should do so in the context of local and national priorities for funding and developing services, and in light of their duties to have due regard to the need to eliminate unlawful discrimination, to advance equality of opportunity and to reduce health inequalities. Nothing in this guideline should be interpreted in a way that would be inconsistent with compliance with those duties. NICE guidelines cover health and care in England. Decisions on how they apply in other UK countries are made by ministers in the Welsh Government, Scottish Government, and Northern Ireland Executive.

  • Pain Management for Infants During Vaccination: Evaluation of Online Resources and Pilot
    Pain Management for Infants during Vaccination: Evaluation of Online Resources and Pilot Testing of Parent-Targeted Interventions Shokoufeh Modanloo, BScN, MScN A thesis submitted to Faculty of Health Sciences, School of Nursing in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Doctorate in Philosophy degree in Nursing Faculty of Health Sciences School of Nursing University of Ottawa © Shokoufeh Modanloo, Ottawa, Canada, 2020 VACCINATION PAIN MANAGEMENT FOR INFANTS ii Abstract The overall aim of this thesis was to improve the use of recommended pain management strategies during infant vaccination by investigating the quality and use of evidence-based online parent resources. Study 1: A two-armed pilot randomized control trial (RCT) was conducted to evaluate the feasibility, acceptability and preliminary efficacy of two interventions, delivered online, aimed at improving the use of recommended pain management strategies during infant vaccination. Parents of infants < six months old were randomized to 1) Be Sweet to Babies videos and tip sheet; and 2) Be Sweet to Babies videos, tip sheet and Motivational Interviewing- informed Affirmative Statements and Questions (AS&Q). Results showed it was feasible to recruit parents via online means (201 eligible respondents recruited in a week, 170, 85% provided written consent, and 89, 59% completed all data collection. From these 89 participants, there was high acceptability of the study, 84 (94%) were satisfied with study processes, and 78 (88%) intended to recommend the strategies to others. For preliminary efficacy, almost all participants used at least one of the pain management strategies in the subsequent vaccination (Intervention 1 (49, 98%); Intervention 2 (38, 95%)). There were no significant differences in the use of pain management strategies between the two study groups.
