Article Synopsis
- * A pilot study in Australia evaluated 31 mother-infant pairs over three months, finding improvements in maternal well-being and the mother-infant relationship, while also highlighting significant concerns for the infants, including high rates of physical and developmental issues.
- * Although infants showed improved socio-emotional responsiveness after PIU admission, the study's small sample size and observational methods limit its broader applicability, suggesting a need for more extensive research to identify effective strategies for supporting vulnerable infants in these settings.
