Most causes of infant death are problems that occur in newborn/neonatal (0-28 days old), Low Birth Weight Babies (LBW) is one of the factors which has a contribution to infant mortality, especially in the neonatal period. Infant Mortality Rate (IMR) is a benchmark in determining the degree of public health, both at the National and Provincial levels. This study aimed to determine the effect of the Kangaroo Mother Care Method (KMC) on the prevention of hypothermia in low birth weight infants at Morowali District Hospital in 2019. The type of research used was a quasi-experiment. The population is all low birth weight babies born from May to July 2019. The sample in this study was all newborns with low birth weight born from May to July 2019, totaling 30 babies. There is a difference (influence) on the baby's body temperature before and after KMC with a p-value=0,000. The kangaroo mother care can continue to be affiliated considering its benefits for both infants and mothers, as well as increasing the ability of health workers in conducting KMC so that they can provide in-house training for mothers to be carried out at home.

This individually randomized trial was conducted to estimate the effect of promoting community-initiated Kangaroo Mother Care (ciKMC) in low birth weight (LBW) infants on gut inflammation and permeability. Participants included 200 stable LBW infants (weighing 1,500–2,250 g) in North India enrolled between May and October 2017. The ciKMC intervention included promotion and support of continuous skin-to-skin contact and exclusive breastfeeding through home visits. The mothers in the intervention arm were supported to practice ciKMC until 28 days after birth, i.e., the neonatal period, or till the baby wriggled out of KMC position, if earlier. Infant stool specimens were collected during the first week of birth, and within 1 week after end of the neonatal period. Concentrations of fecal neopterin (nmol/L), myeloperoxidase (ng/mL), and alpha-1-antitrypsin (μg/mL) were determined using ELISA, and composite enteric enteropathy (EE) score at the end of the neonatal period was calculated by principal component analysis. We did not find any substantial difference in means between the ciKMC and control arm infants in the log-transformed values of neopterin (0.03; 95% CI −0.15 to 0.21), myeloperoxidase (0.28; 95% CI −0.05 to 0.61) and alpha-1-antitrypsin (0.02; 95% CI −0.30 to 0.34). The mean (SD) composite EE score was 13.6 (7.5) in the ciKMC and 12.4 (8.3) in the control arm infants, and the adjusted difference in means was negligible, 0.4 (95% CI −1.8 to 2.7). Our findings suggest that the promotion of ciKMC did not affect gut inflammation and permeability in our target population of LBW infants in North India.

Abstract Objective Evidence on the safety and influence of kangaroo mother care (KMC) in extremely low birth weight infants (ELBWIs) on ventilation is lacking. Study Design This is a retrospective cohort study performed in 145 ELBWIs on noninvasive mechanical ventilation from a tertiary center. Results The duration of nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation (nIPPV) and continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) ventilation was significantly shorter in infants with KMC compared with infants without (21 vs. 13.5 days, p = 0.001 and 29.5 days vs. 20.5 days, p = 0.001, respectively). The frequency of apnea during hospital stay was fewer in KMC infants, compared with no KMC (23 vs. 20 times, p = 0.002). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that KMC was an independent protective factor for shortening nIPPV/CPAP duration (β = −9.90, 95% confidence interval [CI] [−13.20, −6.60], p < 0.001), total supplemental oxygen support (β = −10.52, 95% CI [−16.73, −4.30], p = 0.001), and reducing times of apneas (β = −5.88, 95% CI [−8.56, −3.21], p < 0.001). Conclusion KMC benefits ELBWIs by shortening nIPPV/CPAP ventilation duration and total supplemental oxygen support, and reducing the frequency of apneas.

Tujuan penelitian ini mengidentifikasi pengaruh perawatan metode kanguruterhadap kecemasan ibu dan status bangun-tidur BBLR. Rancangan penelitian one group pretest posttest design dengan sampel16 ibu dan BBLR di sebuah rumah sakit Surabaya secara consecutive sampling. Kecemasan ibu diukur dengan PSS: NICU danstatus bangun tidur dengan modifikasi skala Brazelton oleh Priya. Hasil analisis uji statistik menggunakan Wilcoxon Sign RankTest dan uji Friedman menunjukkan ada perbedaan bermakna (p= 0,000; α= 0,05). PMK mempunyai pengaruh signifikanterhadap perubahan kecemasan ibu dan status bangun-tidur BBLR. Tenaga kesehatan disarankan mengembangkan PMK untukpeningkatan status kesehatan ibu, juga tumbuh kembang bayi yang optimal.Kata kunci: kecemasan ibu, perawatan metode kangguru, status bangun-tidur BBLR.AbstractClinical condition and treatment at Low Birth Weight Infants (LBW) in the intensive care unit affects sleep-wake status andcauses anxiety for the mother. The aims of this study is to identify the influence of methods of kangaroo care on maternalanxiety and sleep-wake status of LBW. The design of this study was one group pretest posttest design with sample of 16 mothersand low birth weight in a hospital in Surabaya by consecutive sampling. Maternal anxiety was measured with the PSS: NICUand sleep-wake status with Brazelton scale modified by Priya. The result of statistical analysis test using Wilcoxon Sign RankTest and Friedman test showed there are significant difference (p= 0.000; α= 0.05). KMC has a significant influence onchanges in maternal anxiety and sleep-wake status of LBW. Health care provider are recommended to develop KMC forimprovement of maternal health status, as well as the optimal infant growth and development.Keywords: maternal anxiety, kangaroo mother care, sleep-wake state in low birth weight baby

AbstractBabies with low brith weight (LBW) require special care to prevent neonatal death due to low birth weight. To identify the description of the implementation of Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC) care in low birth weight infants. This research method used Literature Review. Research articles from several databases, namely PubMed and Portal garuda, were identified using the keywords "Kangaroo Mother Care" AND "Low Brith Weight" AND "Practice".These articles were published in 2015-2021. Research articles that met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were reviewed using the JBI Cross Sectional Study instrument. There are five articles analyzed in this study. The results of the study showed the implementation of Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC) in LBW infants. The average time of KMC implementation duration 65 minutes. Most of the respondent carried out KMC in the hospital after giving birth with the correct SOP according to the hospital procedures. It can be concluded that the implementation of Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC) can increase body weight in LBW babies, normal body temperature, and increase breastfeeding or nutrition.Keywords: LBW Babies; Kangaroo Mother Care; Practice AbstrakBayi dengan berat badan lahir rendah (BBLR) memerlukan perawatan yang khusus untuk mencegah terjadinya kematian neonatal. Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC) adalah salah satu cara yang mudah dan efektif untuk mencegah terjadinya kematian neonatal akibat BBLR. Untuk mengidentifikasi gambaran pelaksanaan perawatan Kangaro Mother Care (KMC) pada bayi berat badan lahir rendah. Metode penelitian ini menggunakan Literature Review. Artikel penelitian dari beberapa database yaitu PubMed dan Portal garuda di identifikasi dengan menggunakan kata kunci “Kangaroo Mother Care” AND “Low Brith Weight” AND “Practice” yang di batesi dari tahun 2015-2021. Artikel penelitian yang memenuhi kriteria inklusi dan ekslusi di telaah dengan menggunakan instrument JBI Cross Sectional studi. Terdapat lima artikel yang dianalis pada penelitian ini. Hasil dari penelitian menunjukan pelaksanaan Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC) pada bayi BBLR yaitu terdapat durasi waktu pelaksanaan KMC yaitu rata-rata 65menit, mayoritas ibu yang melaksanakan, dilakukan di Rumah Sakit setelah bayi lahir dan dengan cara SOP KMC yang benar sesuai prosedur RS masing-masing. Dapat di simpulkan bahwa pelaksanaan Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC) yang dilakukan dapat meningkatkan berat badan pada bayi BBLR, suhu tubuh normal dan meningkatkan pemberian ASI atau nutrisi.Kata kunci: Bayi BBLR; Perawatan Metode Kanguru; Praktik
