This study deals with qualitative, Convergent-Care Research whose objectives are to investigate the adaptation process experience of families in this third stage of the Kangaroo Method with premature and/or low weight newborns, to implement a nursing visit in reference to the four adaptive modes of the Roy Theory. The study was developed from October, 2006 to February, 2007 in a University Hospital. The subjects were six mothers, family members, and their babies. Data was collected through Roy's adaptive care process model, using observation techniques and semi-structured interviews. The data analysis process was carried out through apprehension, synthesis, theorization, and transference. The results show the need to strengthen the role of the family in the patient's leave from the hospital and the communication among the interdisciplinary team, as well as to rethink the criteria for releasing in the third stage.

Background: Postpartum haemorrhage is a preventable cause of maternal mortality that commonly occurs during the third stage of labour. Skin-to-skin contact is an intervention that can support the physiological processes of labour by increasing oxytocin levels, which can accelerate placental expulsion and enhance uterine contractions, thereby contributing to the prevention of postpartum haemorrhage.
Objective: This systematic review aims to evaluate the impact of skin-to-skin contact on key maternal variables during the third stage of labour, including the duration of this stage, placental integrity, the need for manual placental extraction, the administration of therapeutic uterotonics, and the position of the uterine fundus.

Intraoral disease, including macropod progressive periodontal disease, is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality for wallabies under human care. Clinical signs associated with intraoral disease vary, and diagnostic findings can be difficult to interpret without intraoral radiographs or advanced imaging; therefore, this disease process can be challenging to detect in its early stages. Previous studies have investigated the effects of intraoral disease on the normal oral microbiome of various domestic species.

Sarcoptes scabiei mites and skin lesions consistent with severe sarcoptic mange were identified in a Tasmanian devil (Sarcophilus harrisii) and Bennett's wallaby (Notamacropus rufogriseus) from Tasmania, Australia. The devil and wallaby both had severe hyperkeratotic skin lesions. All stages of mite development were identified in the devil, suggesting parasite reproduction on the host.

Attaining full enteral feeding at the earliest possible stage can facilitate the removal of vascular catheters and decrease catheter-related complications.
Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort study comprising 145 extremely preterm infants with a gestational age < 28 weeks who underwent non-invasive mechanical ventilation at Shenzhen Maternity & Child Healthcare Hospital between January 2019 and June 2020.
