Facilitating Skin-to-Skin Contact In the Postnatal Period

25. juli 2019 oppdatert av: Birmingham City University

A Skin-to-Skin Contact (SSC) Facilitating Device Used Within a Mother-Infant Dyad: Exploring Its Acceptability, Usage and Effect on Health Outcomes in the Postnatal Period.

This study evaluates the safety and efficacy of a skin-to-skin facilitating garment used by mother-infant dyads. It has three phases including researcher observation, randomised controlled trialing and qualitative midwifery staff perspective. The research will determine the effect a facilitating garment has in comparison to conventionally facilitated skin-to-skin contact, by measuring its effect on the baby's temperature stability, breastfeeding status and weight velocity.

Detaljert beskrivelse

Skin-to-skin contact is used as part of a package of Kangaroo Mother Care across the world. This has been demonstrated to reduce neonatal morbidity, mortality, and inpatient stays for low birth weight and preterm infants (Charpak and Ruiz 2016).

This study examines the effect a facilitating garment, the Snuby® has on neonatal health outcomes associated with skin-to-skin contact, such as neonatal thermoregulation, breastfeeding status, and self-reported mother-infant bonding. It uses a mixed methods approach to address quantitative and qualitative outcomes including participant's perspectives, and measurable health markers.

Våpen og intervensjoner

Deltakergruppe / Arm
Intervensjon / Behandling
Eksperimentell: Snuby® users
This group receives the Snuby® skin-to-skin facilitating garment to use in the first six weeks following birth with their baby. The use of the Snuby® garment is participant led, and used for as long and as often as they wish in the six week period.
Fabric garment designed to accommodate term neonates having skin-to-skin contact.
Andre navn:
  • Snuby®
Ingen inngripen: Conventional Care
This group does not receive any intervention, and collects data on the research outcomes when having conventionally facilitated skin-to-skin contact, using a towel, blanket, or clothing as preferred. Skin-to-skin contact frequency and duration is dictated by the participant.
