“…Diniz KT et al [29] used surface electromyography to investigate the effect of the kangaroo position on brachial and ischiotibial biceps (biceps femoris) in premature newborns, concluding that the kangaroo position increased short-term electromyographic activity in the group submitted to that position.…”

Introduction: The electric activity of muscles can be assessed using electromyography to determine their function and help identify possible delays in motor development. Objective: Determine the amplitude of the electromyographic activity of the head and trunk flexor and extensor muscles of term and preterm newborns. Method: This is a longitudinal pilot study where 20 preterm and 20 term newborns admitted to the Prof. Fernando Figueira Institute of Comprehensive Medicine were assessed. All the newborns were evaluated between 24 and 72 hours after delivery, with the premature children assessed a second time when term equivalent age was reached at 40 weeks. Data were recorded using a surface electromyograph and the electrodes were attached to the muscle bellies of the sternocleidomastoid, upper portion of the trapezius, rectus abdominis and erector spinae muscles. Results: Comparison of the electromyographic activity between the preterm newborns showed significantly higher values in all the muscles when the group reached term equivalent age. Additionally, the electromyographic activity of the term group was greater than that obtained by the preterm newborns. Conclusion: With advancing age and maturation of the physiological systems, including the muscle system, preterm newborns tend to exhibit a similar muscle activation behavior to that of the term infants, resulting in better motor development.

“…The frequency of kangaroo care across studies varied and ranged from 1 time per day [50] to an average of 4 times per day [56,57]. The length of time that kangaroo care was studied ranged from 1 day [53,[58][59][60] to 3 weeks [50]. No new tactile interventions were identified since the previous review.…”

“…However, multimodal interventions often included a tactile component (see "Multimodal" section below). Positive outcomes associated with increased duration and/or frequency of kangaroo care included stabilized respiratory rate [58,61], improved maternal-infant attachment [54,55,61,62], decreased parental stress [50,54,55,61,63], lower heart rate [58,60], increased shortterm electromyographic activity of the biceps brachii and hamstrings [59], increased oxygen saturation [51], decreased infant salivary cortisol levels [64], increased salivary oxytocin levels for infants and parents [64], decreased anxiety for parents [64], decreased risk of early postpartum depression or impaired bonding [54,55], increased weight gain, fewer episodes of apnea, decreased use of formula, improved sleep, and decreased crying Populations with a purposeful sample of healthy infants (defined as 3 or more of the following factors: never on oxygen, never on medications, no intraventricular hemorrhage or other perinatal brain injury, Apgar scores >7 at 1 or 5 min, or never had sepsis) A systematic search for studies published from October 2015 to October 2020 was performed using databases including MEDLINE (via PubMed), CINAHL (Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature), the Cochrane Library, and Google Scholar. Reference lists of included studies were also searched.…”

NICU sensory experiences associated with positive outcomes: an integrative review of evidence from 2015–2020

et al. 2023

To inform changes to the Supporting and Enhancing NICU Sensory Experiences (SENSE) program, studies investigating sensory-based interventions in the NICU with preterm infants born ≤32 weeks were identified. Studies published between October 2015 to December 2020, and with outcomes related to infant development or parent well-being, were included in this integrative review. The systematic search used databases including MEDLINE, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature, the Cochrane Library, and Google Scholar. Fifty-seven articles (15 tactile, 9 auditory, 5 visual, 1 gustatory/olfactory, 5 kinesthetic, and 22 multimodal) were identified. The majority of the sensory interventions that were identified within the articles were reported in a previous integrative review (1995–2015) and already included in the SENSE program. New evidence has led to refinements of the SENSE program, notably the addition of position changes across postmenstrual age (PMA) and visual tracking starting at 34 weeks PMA.

Este estudo visa analisar as percepções dos pais de recém-nascidos pré-termo sobre o Método Canguru. Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa, modalidade Estudo de Caso, cujos dados foram obtidos entre março e dezembro de 2016, mediante entrevistas semiestruturadas com 12 mães e três pais de recém-nascidos pré-termo, em um hospital de ensino de Campo Grande - MS, Brasil, sendo suas narrativas submetidas à técnica de análise de conteúdo temática. Os dados coletados foram agrupados em três núcleos temáticos: “O Método Canguru como contribuinte para a aproximação e formação do vínculo entre pais e filho”; “O Método Canguru como favorecedor do crescimento e desenvolvimento do filho pré-termo”; e “O Método Canguru como facilitador do aleitamento materno exclusivo”. Na descrição destas percepções, encontraram-se como benefícios do método a construção do vínculo entre pais e filhos, a aceleração do ganho de peso do bebê, melhor desenvolvimento motor, incentivo à amamentação e à alta precoce, coincidindo com as vantagens descritas pela literatura vigente.
