Objective: to analyze the association of skin-to-skin contact and social determinants of health.
Methods: this is a cross-sectional study with 187 medical records of newborns from a reference rooming in in northeastern Brazil. An instrument with maternal and neonatal data was used. Analysis was descriptive and inferential statistics. For the associations, a chi-square test was used to measure strength, an Odds Ratio was calculated, with a 95% confidence interval.
Results: 62% of newborns who made skin-to-skin contact at birth were eutrophic, full-term, Apgar > 7, mothers with prenatal care and without abortion. The determinants associated with non-skin-to-skin contact were preterm (CR=3.2;95%CI: 2.72-18.98); 1st minute Apgar < 7 (CR:2.9;95%CI: 2.38-3.06), cesarean section (CR:8.4;95%CI: 4.29-16.57), and unhealthy NB (CR 12.7;95%CI: 4.9-32.67). We used STROBE guidelines.
Conclusion: skin-to-skin contact was influenced by gestational age, Apgar, delivery, and newborn health.

Infants admitted to Danish neonatal units demonstrate satisfactory growth independent of feeding type at discharge.

Department of Clinical Research, Faculty of Health Science, University of Southern Denmark, Odense, Denmark.
Aim: The aim was to investigate feeding type at discharge; exclusively breastfeeding (EBF), mixed breastfeeding (MBF), and formula milk feeding (FMF), factors associated with feeding type, and changes in weight-for-age z-score (ΔWAZ) in infants admitted to Danish neonatal units.
Methods: Using data from the Danish National Quality Database for Births and the Danish Newborn Quality Database, we included 8639 mother-infant dyads admitted ≥5 days between February 2019 and December 2021. We used logistic regression to investigate associations between maternal and infant factors and feeding type, and descriptive statistics to describe ΔWAZ and feeding type at discharge.
Practices supporting cue-based breastfeeding of preterm infants in neonatal intensive care units across Europe.

School of Health and Welfare, Dalarna University, Falun, Sweden.
Background: Emerging knowledge about supportive neurodevelopmental neonatal care shows the need for an individual approach to establish breastfeeding. However, evidence on how cue-based breastfeeding is supported in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) is scarce. Therefore, the aim was to describe supporting practices for cue-based breastfeeding.

Skin-to-skin contact between the mother and baby during the first hour after birth has significant benefits for mother, newborn and breastfeeding. However, optimal implementation is highly variable. The 2023 International Guidelines on skin-to-skin contact in the first hour after birth place high confidence in the evidence that immediate, continuous, uninterrupted skin-to-skin contact should be routine for all mothers and all babies over 1000 g, regardless of mode of delivery.

Infants requiring surgery for congenital heart disease (CHD) are at an increased risk of neurodevelopmental delay. Developmental Care Rounds (DCR) have been implemented widely to support the neurodevelopment of children with CHD while admitted to the hospital. This study aims to describe caregiver perceptions of DCR at a quaternary academic children's heart center.

There has been a significant paradigm shift in the management of infants with NOWS to emphasizing the role of non-pharmacologic care centered on the mother-infant dyad. By promoting bonding through rooming-in, breast-feeding and skin-to skin contact in a low stimulation environment, short and long-term outcomes have dramatically improved, resulting in reduced length of stay and need for pharmacologic treatment of the newborn. This shift in care also empowers the mother and promotes bonding and attachment, providing a solid foundation for a safe discharge.
