of habitat and ecological niche of the infant and that KMC is really good for promoting breastfeeding. Says the biggest
barrier to BF success is separation of mother and newborn. First part of article summarizes neurodevelopment of fetus
and newborn, and second identifies barriers and how to fix them. Promotion of uninterrupted and continuous KC is
needed. Does not have an actual measure of breastfeeding success (such as Carfoot’s desire and final study had), but is
talking about overall success. This is very similar content to Winberg’s article
Bergman NJ, Linley LL, & Fawcus SR 2004. Randomized controlled trial of skin-to-skin contact from birth
versus conventional incubator for physiological stabilization in 1200- to 2199-gram newborns. Acta Paediatrica 93(6),
779-785. Over first 6 hours post birth, gave either KC or incubator care and measured number of times infant’s
physiologic values exceeded clinical norm range and scored the values using SCRIP, a stability scoring system.
“Newborn care provided by KC on the mother’s chest results inm better physiological outcomes and stability than the
same care provided in closed servo-controlled incubators. Cardiorespiratory instability seen in separated infants in the
first 6 hrs is consistent with mammalian “protest-despair” biology, and with “hyperarousal & dissociation” response
patterns described in human infants. Newborns should not be separated from their mothers.” (pg.779).PT, RCT, HR,

Mother Care. J. Tropical Pediatrics 49 (5), 311-312. Report of the 4 th Workshop is Cape Town in 2002. Reports that
objectives of the workshop were to review clinical research, examine KMC public health policy, empower delegates to
more effectively implement KMC, and equip delegates with ability to promote KMC to general public. KMC starting at
birth with 1200 gramers and larger was shown to be safe (pg. 311),developmental and bonding benefits of KMC beyond
12 months were shown, Cochrane (Anderson et al., 2003) of fullterm early KMC outcomes – BF outcomes most marked,
less crying, improved attachment were reviewed. Many provinces and countries have adopted KMC as formal
government policy, and WHO’s Kangaroo Mother Care – a Practical Guide was reviewed. Social marketing principles
(selling KMC to the public) were presented on Day 3 by Dr. Amy Seidel Marks. Principles are: identify stake holders,
package the message separately for each target audience or market sector, sometimes putting aside was the medical
manager knows and whats for the community and instead putting in what the people’s needs and wants (the consumer’s
perspective) are. Thus, KMC requires marketing not just a product,but new behaviours and values associated with
KMC.Each segment of the market has a different value. Packaging must also match client’s stage of change. Barriers to
change need to be understood and addressed for each market (readers are referred to Prochaska & DiClemente, 1983.
