Can more cuddle time stop Mom's depression? major trial tests Skin-to-Skin care
NCT ID NCT06545760
Summary
This study is testing whether letting mothers and their low birthweight babies stay together in a special care ward for more than two days after leaving intensive care can help prevent depression in the mothers. Researchers will compare this extended 'kangaroo mother care'—which involves prolonged skin-to-skin contact—to the standard shorter stay. They will also check if the extra bonding time helps the babies' development and is cost-effective in low-resource settings.
