Maternal-Infant Interaction
__________2007
Ali & Lowry, 1981
Bauer 2005
Review of Moore et al., 2007 in which VEKC infants interacted
More with their moms than kids who did not get VEKC.
PT, Review in Sizun and Brown Dev. Care text. Cites proximity
should allow for better interaction

Bigelow,Power 2012 FT, RCT
Bigelow et al.
FT, RCT
Bystrova 2008
FT, RCT her dissertation report-compared KC, clothes, swaddling,
The first two hours after birth are a sensitive period for early
development of mat-infant interaction, just like Hales, et al., 1977;
Kennel, Trause & Klaus, 1975; Klaus, Jerauld, Kreger, McAlpine,
Steffa & Kennel, 1972, Klaus & Kennel, 1976 said)
Bystrova et al., 2009 FT, RCT. interaction at one year was established with Birth KC.
There is sensitive period immediately after birth and if separated,
maternal behaviors to infant are not the same.
Carfoot, W, D, 2003 PT, May have something to say about interactions. Or later ones
may also.
Carlson et al.,1978 FT, RCT. better maternal behaviors during feeding with Birth KC
Chalmers 2009
Commentary that there is sensitive period (1st two hours after birth)
for establishing maternal-infant interaction patterns
Charpak et al. 2005 PT, this is a review of articles and does say KC improves
interactions.
Chiu & Anderson,
PT, RCT, NCAST feeding at 6 and 12 months and NCAST
2009
play/teaching at 6,12, 18 months after KC early after birth and for
next five days. Only difference was in play at 6 months and KC
infants scored more poorly (lower score). Authors say it is due to
small sample size and insensitive measurement and low dose KC
deChateau et al. 1977 FT
deChateau etal 1979 FT
deChateau et al.1984 FT
Dumas et al., 2013 FT, RCT. Separation and swaddling at birth interfere with
maternal-infant interaction during BF on Day 4 in hospital
(watched on 151 videos).. Moms who did not get birth kc
demonstrated significantly more roughness in behaviors with
infants. There is sensitive period for separation after birth.
Immediate and uninterrupted skin to skin contact at birth should be
Encouraged
Feldman et al., 1999 PT, measured bonding behaviors and said proximity is needed to
establish bonding. Not sure if this is review or a study. .
Feldman et al., 2002 PT, quasi experimental of 146 videotaped interactions. KMC
moms looked more, touched more, showed more positive affect,
and more adaptive to infant signal than controls (standard
incubator care). KC had DIRECT impact on maternal interactive
behavior by providing proximity.. Better interactions at 37 wks
pma.
Feldman et al., 2013 PT, quasi-exp of 2002 infants, 73 who got 1 hr of Kc/day for 14
consecutive days vs 73 who did not get KC. There was improved
maternal-child reciprocity during interactions at 10 years in Kc
group.
Gathwala et al. 2008 PT, RCT, mother infant interaction scored by video and KMC
mothers more involved in caregiving than controls
Heinemann et al. 2013 PT, study of effects of staying with babies on moms and those
who gave KMC said that KMC enhanced their interactions with
their infants.
Hosseini et al., 1992 PT, Descriptive of paternal KC. Interaction Score was good for
Paterenal KC dads.
Hsieh & Huang, 2000 PT, Qualitative study. Moms believe that KC promotes +
relationship with baby.
Johnson, 2007
PT, Qualitative study. KC Moms are satisfied with their
interactions with their babies regardless of severity of illness
Klaus, 2009
Commentary, says there is sensitive (but not critical) period for
establishing maternal-infant interactions and that is during first two
hours of birth and refers to Bystrova et al., 2009 as proof.
Korja R et al., 2008 PT, correlation study of amount of holding time at home after
discharge and interaction. The more the holding, the better the
interaction.
Kritzinger & Louw, 1999 PT.Clin report of Prenatal communications with mothers
increased KMC
Kritzinger & L, 2003 PT, another clinical report of use of KC to improve communication
between mothers and infants.
Lud-Hoe et al, 1992 PT, Pat KC descriptive. Good interaction scores for dads in KC.
Lud-Hoe et al., 2008 PT. Systematic review that address maternal-infant interactions too
Magill & Evans 2006 PT, FT, Review of paternal intervention studies and says that if
father is allowed to participate in care of child, enhanced
interactions will occur.
Miles et al., 2006
PT, RCT. Daily KC for 4 wks starting within 1st week in <32 wk
PMA infants showed no diff in interaction at dc, 6 and 12 months
Moore et al. 2007
FT, Cochrane review. Infants who got VEKC interact more with
their moms.
Moore & Anderson FT
Nyqvist, 2009
PT Recommendations for WHO and gives one of reasons for KMC
In NICU as promoting maternal-infant interaction.
Nyqvist et al., 2009 PT,Recommendations for 7th INK meeting and cites that maternalinfant interactions improve with KMC.

Roller 2005
PT, video scoring of mother infant interaction.
Schaller et al., 1979 FT, Birth KC affects maternal-infant interactions/maternal behavs
Tallandini & Scalembra, 2006 PT QuasiExp of two groups at two different hospitals.
KMC dyads had better interactive style.
Tessier et al., 1998. PT, RCT, KMC moms were more sensitive, responded more
adequately than controls during interactions with infants and
infants had clearer cues than controls.
Uvnas-Moberg 1996 Review of neuroendocrine changes with KC and that these
hormones promote better interactions.
Vairvre-Douret et al. 1996 Review that says KC promotes better interactions
Varendi et al. 1994 FT, descriptive of one group. Birth is a series of sensitive interActions between mother and infant
Velandia et al. 2010 FT, RCT of 25 mins of Birth KC immediately after C/S with
mother or with father. Different behaviors from mom than with
father and infants initiated vocalizations to parents within 15
minutes of birth.
Velandia et al. 2012 FT, RCT of 25 mins of birth KC immediately after C/S with
mothers or father. Parents interacted differently, fathers directed
more speech to boy than girl infants, mothers acted differently too.
Girls cried more than boys during KC.

FT, RCT. mothers who had birth kc had different mothering
behaviors than no KC mothers.
