Summary Review
Student’s Name
Institution Affiliation
Article One: Early skin-to-skin contact for mothers and their
healthy newborn infants
Initial skin-to-skin contact refers to placing a undressed baby,
covering the head with warm blanket as well as dry cap
crosswise the back on the mother’s chest. After reading the
article, I expect to learn the special effects of early skin-to-skin
connection on psychological alteration, breastfeeding and
behaviour in healthy mother-newborn relation. The report
covers the relationship between mother and new-born baby
through early skin-to-skin contact. The rationale of the research
is to proof the effects of early skin to skin contact on
breastfeeding and other outcomes in mothers such as duration
and also mother’s healthy and late preterm newborn infants
(Moore et al., 2016). The article affirms that intimate contact at
early birth influence neurobehaviors, promoting the fulfilment
of basic biological needs.
The research was conducted in Cochrane Pregnancy and
Childbirth Group’s Trialist Registers, contacting trialist and the
bibliography on Kangaroo Mother Care. Randomised control
trials were used in the research. Trial quality was assessed
independently, and data extracted as well as more information
given by study authors. The main outcomes of the literature
found that there is an affirmative effect of SSC on breastfeeding
in the first four months after birth (Nagai et al., 2010). It was
also noted that the SSC increased the duration of breastfeeding.
Cardio-respiratory stability was noted in late preterm infants
6. (Neu & Robinson, 2010). The findings are supported by graphs
which illustrate that none of the studies met all the
methodological quality criteria. In conclusion, the authors
affirmed that intervention benefited breastfeeding outcomes,
decrease infant crying, and cardio-respiratory stability. The
response also was found to have no adverse effects. However,
further investigation is recommended. There are 66 references
included in the article review.
Article Two: Baby to Mother’s Skin or Baby to Radiant
Warmer; Which Practice Promotes the Best Outcome for a
Healthy, Term Newborn Delivery?
After reading the abstract, I expected to learn the benefits of
skin to skin contact for a newborn immediately after
spontaneous vaginal delivery as compared to radiant warmer. I
expected to learn how skin to skin contact promotes
stabilisation and promotion of newborn's well-being. The
literature review was made to examine the evidence regarding
which of the two practices promotes the best outcome for a
healthy newborn delivery. The research methods used in this
literature review include PubMed and CINAHL search engines
for Penn State Hershey George T. Harrell Health Science
Library. Surveys were also conducted on the current practices
of 3rd Floor Women’s Health RN’s in the labour and delivery
setting (Landis et al., 2013). The literature supports skin to skin
contact directly after vaginal delivery of a healthy newborn.
The benefit identified include mother-newborn bonding,
thermo-stabilization, initiation of breastfeeding, easier
transitions to extra-uterine life, pain reduction, stimulation of
oxytocin and promotion of antibodies (Weddig et al., 2011).
Surveys were conducted in the Labor and Delivery RN’s at
Hershey Medical Center which found that 90% prefer skin to
skin contact, while only 10% preferred warmer radiant
following delivery (Fleming, 2012). Pie chart and a graph were
7. used to present the findings of the literature. Radiant warmer
were said to cause complication such as infant pulmonary
distress, mental illness, newborn Hypoglycaemia and maternal
pain management challenges. In conclusion, baby to belly
directly following delivery was proven to be the best for mother
and baby stabilisation. However, the study should be conducted
on the level of education or policies on the practice, and staff
comfort in initiating breastfeeding. The literature used five
references to analyse the issue.
Article Three: Benefits of skin-to-skin during neonatal period:
Governed by Epigenetic Mechanism
The abstract of the article presents the importance of perinatal
experiences in the child’s later life psychology. The purpose of
the literature is to examine the current skin-to-skin practice and
the need for more studies discussed. The article emphasises the
contribution of skin-to-skin contact in establishing regular
breathing as well as maintaining healthy blood glucose and
blood temperature levels (Almgren, 2018). Also known as
Kangaroo mother care, SSC is appropriate care to stabilise low-
birth-weight infants.
In a Zimbabwe hospital where there was no equipment to care
for neonates was examined in the research. The literature was
weighing the survival of infants between 1000 and 1500 g.
Another randomised control study where stable neonates with
birth weight 1200 to 2199 g were examined got conducted. One
sample was assigned skin-to-skin and the other assigned
conventional care. Cardio-respiratory and temperature scores
were monitored within the 6 hours after birth (Carbasse et al.,
2013). The survival of infants had been as low as 10% in the
Zimbabwe hospital but improved dramatically to 50% for
infants with weight 1000 g-1500 g. In the second study found
that 100% of the sample assigned to SSC resulted in stability
scores as compared to the conventional care group 46%.
8. Graphical representation was used to show the findings of
Bergman et al. (1994) survival according to weights. Lastly,
there is a need for more studies and researches on the impact of
skin-to-skin on premature newborns. The article has used 18
references to examine the issue.

Skin to Skin Contact
Name:
University
May 7, 2019
Mothers and infant need to be close together during birth and
from the hours that follow. It is safe and essential to keep
mothers and babies together. Various evidence has supported
the need for constant skin care, after vaginal birth and during
and after caesarian surgeries for many stable mothers and other
babies. This text reviews various works of literature supporting
the need for skin to skin care during birth.
The best practice that supports safe and birth that is healthy is
to keep the mother and babies together and make sure that the
opportunities for the skin to skin care and breastfeeding are
15. unlimited. There is a need for psychological need between the
mother and babies the following birth since it helps to improve
maternally and the newborn outcome (Bergman, 2013).
According to World health organization and United Nations
children funds (2009), urge that every woman regardless of
feeding preferences and method of birth to have interrupted skin
to skin contact immediately after delivery for an hour until the
first feeding. Skin to skin care refers to placing a newborn
without clothes on the woman's bare chest with the only warm
dried and unclothed blanket covering the back of the newborn.
Other maternal care should take place during the skin to skin
care or postpone it until the skin to skin care has taken place
(Mark, 2010).
As stated by Buckley, (2014), the first hour after birth is very
sensitive and is greatly influenced by the elevated levels of the
maternal reproduction hormone, oxytocin which crosses the
placenta to the baby. Skin to skin contact helps to protect the
newborn baby from the negative effect of separation. Babies are
born to interact with their mothers. A mother and her newborn
baby are literal single biological organism until their umbilical
cord has been cut. Attachment between the mother and infant is
significant in the development of the new infant which helps to
self-regulate and maintain their homeostasis. The skin to skin
contact helps to control newborn exposure to the environment.
Therefore, it is evident babies who had skin to skin contact have
a higher survival during parents separation compared to those
who have experienced radiant warmer.
There is an increase in the oxytocin level during the skin to
skin care contact. It helps to promote mother to baby attachment
and regulates thermal temperature, reduces newborn stress and
helps faster transition to the postnatal life. (Dowell, 2012).
During this sensitive time which is always referred to ass, the
magical hour, golden hour or holy hour requires protection,
respect, and support. New innate protective behavior may be
suppressed due to delay or lack of skin to skin to skin care
which may lead to behavioral disorganization and make
16. attachment and breastfeeding to be more difficult. (More et al.,
2012).
According to Braun K. (2011) skin to skin contact helps for the
survival of the newborn baby. The surface to skin care contains
biochemical activators that prime the brain rewards circuitry
which increases the behavior of maternal care. The author also
argues that hormones are responsible for attachment behaviors
due to the skin to skin contact. This is very important to a
vulnerable new baby born; one of the hormones that are
generated due to the surface to skin contact is Oxytocin. This is
a love hormone that results in the bond between the child and
the mother. The hormone has shown to provide a relaxation
mood, attraction, and facial recognition. Mothers who have had
skin to skin contact with their newborn have a higher bond
compared to those who never had the skin to skin contact.
Early separation and denial of skin to skin to skin care may
disrupt maternal-infant bonding and reduce the dynamic
response of the mother to the baby. This will later hurt maternal
behavior (Dumas et al., 2013). According to Takashi (2011),
there is a heightened response of stimulations which meets the
new basic biological needs when the newborn is placed into the
skin to skin care with the mother. An immediate skin to skin
care helps in the colonization of the newborn maternal flora vs.
the hospital flora. This helps in protection against infection and
helps in breastfeeding of the infant (Sobel, 2011).
There is an increase in the neonatal hypothermia when skin to
skin care is interrupted, some of the benefits that are accrued
about skin to skin, are pleasant temperature, beneficial flora and
a prime opportunity to crawl to the breast which is the best
outcome between the mother and the baby.
How a baby is welcomed into the world in the first hours after
birth affects its health, the impact can be either positive or
negative. The article also emphasizes that healthy newborn
babies who are placed skin to skin with their mothers
immediately after delivery make a great transition from fatal
into a new life with excellent stability in respiration,
17. temperature, glucose, and less crying. This indicates that they
have a less amount of stress ( Chamberlain, 2013).
Safety measures
When a newborn is on a routine care practice, many infants are
exposed to various environments that are considered to be
painful such as heel lance procedure, blood sampling, and
intramuscular injections. Skin to skin care has shown neutralize
these responses to a painful stimulus inclusive a decrease in the
facial grimace, standard heartbeat and crying (Custardy, 2013).
According to WHO, not any person can perform skin to skin
contact care. He recommends that there need to be well-trained
healthcare personnel such as a registered, nurse, midwife or a
nurse practitioner or any physician to be in attendance for any
matter concerning skin to skin sessions (Moore et al., 2012).
There have been cases of a sudden relapse and postnatal
collapse infants which were unexpected because infants were
positioned prone when doing skin to skin contact (Morgan
2014). Despite having no evidence of sudden infant collapse in
various kinds of literature, there have been cases where infant
became apneic.
It is essential that healthcare personnel trained on ways to
manage skin to skin contact in postpartum and obstetric
settings. Various training should include things like proper
positioning, newborn and maternal safety measures and other
health indicators should be measured keenly when there is an
ongoing skin to skin contact (Stevens et al., 2014) even though
many stakeholders urge on the use of neonatal assessment tools
to monitor the wellbeing of infants, no means have been so far
approved at this time.
Recommendation.
It is recommended that all infants who are higher than 37 weeks
and 0 gestation should be placed in an immediate skin to skin
contact for at least for one hour only if either cesarean surgery
or vaginal delivery bore them. Additionally mothers of stable
infants who are more than 37 weeks of gestation should have a
choice to practice skin to skin care during their neonatal
18. procedure, e.g vaccination, sampling of blood and many more,
last but not least parents with healthy infant and greater than 37
weeks should be encouraged to have a frequent skin to skin
contact with their newborn while being in hospital and after
their discharge.
Conclusion
To Sum up, for a bay to adjust to the outside life of both skin
to skin contact is very necessary. The art is supported by much
organization who are responsible for the care and the wellbeing
of their infants, apart from being safe to the mother and the
babies it provides both short term and long-term benefits. From
various research, it is evident that new postpartum skin to skin
care tend to increase the psychological, stability and promotes
optimal psycho-emotional wellbeing and also supports the
structural and function of the newborn.
