Using an observation tool (Parent-Infant Interaction Observation Scale) to assess parent-infant interaction in the first 2 weeks of life: A feasibility study.

Background: Emotional maltreatment (EM) has profound effects on the developing brain but is hardest to identify in infancy. Early observations of parent-infant interactions may provide opportunities to identify babies at risk of neglect and EM. This prospective study tests, in the first fortnight of life, the feasibility of using an observation tool previously validated for use at 2 to 7 months of age.
