Abstract

This study was carried out to determine the effects of the yakson or gentle human touch methods applied by mothers on their preterm new-borns on the mother’s attachment levels and the baby’s response. The yakson and gentle human touch methods are touch-based methods where stimuli with stress-reducing effects are given to preterm new-borns. This study was conducted with 90 women and their new-borns (Yakson = 30, gentle human touch = 30, control = 30) who were hospitalized at the neonatal intensive care unit of a state hospital in Turkey between August 2016 and August 2017. As a result, it was determined that the yakson and gentle human touch methods practiced on the new-borns by their mothers increased mother-baby attachment, contributed to sleep-calmness states, vital signs and weight gain of the baby and reduced their durations of hospital stay.

摘要

进行这项研究的目的是确定母亲对早产新生儿应用的 yakson 或温和的人体触摸方法对母亲的依恋水平和婴儿的反应的影响。yakson 和轻柔的人体触摸方法是基于触摸的方法，其中对早产新生儿给予具有减压效果的刺激。这项研究是在 2016 年 8 月至 2017 年 8 月期间在土耳其一家州立医院的新生儿重症监护室住院的 90 名妇女及其新生儿（Yakson = 30，温柔的人情 = 30，对照 = 30）进行的。结果确定，母亲对新生儿进行的 yakson 和温和的人际接触方法增加了母婴依恋，有助于婴儿的睡眠平静状态、生命体征和体重增加，并减少他们的住院时间停留。
