The genesis of cognitive and behavioral deficits inpremature graduates of intensive care. Minerva Pediatrics 55 (2), 89-101.Increased survival has led to deficits into school age and adolescents. Onecause of deficits is prolonged hospitalization and the stress that it causes.The stress can be minimized by positive maternal-infant interactions. Positiveinteractions enhance neurobehavioral development. KC is recommend as a positiveparent infant interaction and related to improved neurodevelopmental outcome.Review, developmentSchanler, RJ.

A nursery policy that advocates early skinto-skincontact between LBW infant and mother may improve host defense of theinfants”(211). “Guidelines for feeding LBW infants must include skin-to-skincontact to promote development of maternal antibodies”(217). Premise is thatbaby’s skin picks up NICU pathogens and when in contact with mom’s skin passesthem to her. She then makes antibodies, “it is possible that the mother maymake specific IGA antibodies against nosocomial pathogens in the infant’senvironment and pass them along to the infant in her breastmilk”.Stevens BJ, Franck LS. 2001. Assessment and Management of Pain inNeonates. Pediatric Drugs 3(7), 539-558. On page.546 it refers to KC, saying ithas “improved survival, increased the incidence and duration of breastfeeding,resulted in improved respiratory and temperature control, and enhanced maternalinfantinteraction.’ However, only 1 study has investigated KC as a painmanagement strategy during acute painful stimuli…given the encouraging resultsof this study, further investigation of this technique as a potential source ofanalgesia in human neonates is most certainly warranted.”Stevens BJ, Yamada J, Ohlsson A. 2001.
