Actigraphy and Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome of Hospitalized Newborn in Intensive Care Units

Overview

The aim of this study is to analyse the correlation between actigraphy and Lipsitz scoring system in neonatal opioid abstinence syndrome of hospitalized newborn in intensive care units

Hospitalized newborn in intensive care units can receive opioids to manage pain or sedation. Neonatal opioid abstinence syndrome can occur when newborn receive opioid treatment for a long time. Many scoring systems, like Lipsitz scoring system, are used to diagnose and manage neonatal abstinence syndrome but they are subjective. The majority of items in these scores are motor skills items. Actigraphy allows to measure objectively the newborn motricity. This study will analyse the correlation between actigraphy and Lipsitz scoring system.
