ABSTRACT

Kangaroo care (KC) or kangaroo mother care (KMC), sometimes called skin-to-skin contact, is a technique of newborn care where babies are kept chest-to-chest and skin-to-skin with a parent. The research was carried out experimentally to investigate the effect of the early kangaroo care by using Neonatal Comfort Behavior Scale in invasive interventions applied to the babies during early kangaroo care who born as healthy normal birth. Eighty babies who born at Adana Maternity and Child Health Hospital delivery room between 1 July and 31 October 2016 and their mothers constituted the research sampling. The babies were inserted into the experimental (n = 40) and control groups (n = 40) by the simple random sampling method. The invasive interventions were executed to the babies included in experimental group during early kangaroo care and COMFORTneo Behavior Scale was applied. The crying times of babies in both groups were measured with the aid of stopwatch. The level of comfort of the group receiving kangaroo care was found to be higher than those who did not. Significant connection was confirmed statistically positive, and highly between total score and duration of crying (r = 0.925; p = 0.000). It was determined that crying time increases and comfort decreases with increment in total score. As a result, it was found that the early kangaroo care applied during invasive interventions of newborns is an effective method in increasing baby's comfort who born at delivery room.

摘要

袋鼠护理（KC）或袋鼠妈妈护理（KMC），有时也称为皮肤接触，是一种新生儿护理技术，其中婴儿与父母保持胸对胸和皮肤对皮肤。通过使用新生儿舒适行为量表对以健康正常出生的早期袋鼠护理婴儿进行的侵入性干预措施，采用新生儿舒适行为量表，通过实验研究了早期袋鼠护理的效果。2016年7月1日至10月31日期间在Adana妇幼保健医院分娩室出生的80名婴儿及其母亲构成了研究样本。将婴儿分别放入实验组（n  = 40）和对照组（n = 40）。在早期袋鼠护理期间，对实验组的婴儿进行了侵入性干预，并应用了COMFORTneo行为量表。借助秒表测量两组婴儿的哭泣时间。发现接受袋鼠护理的人群的舒适度要高于未接受袋鼠护理的人群。统计学上证实显着相关性阳性，并且在总分和哭泣持续时间之间高度相关（r  = 0.925；p = 0.000）。可以确定，随着总分的增加，哭泣的时间会增加，舒适感会下降。结果，发现在新生儿的侵入性干预期间应用早期的袋鼠护理是增加出生在分娩室的婴儿的舒适度的有效方法。
