Clinical Trial Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if Kangaroo Mother care can have effect on oxidative stress in premature neonates. It will also learn about the bonding between mother and her premature infant. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does Kangaroo mother care lower the biomarker of oxidative stress in premature neonates? - Is Kangaroo mother care associated with mother-infant bonding? Researchers will compare Kangaroo mother care to Conventional incubator care to see if Kangaroo mother care works to have effect on oxidative stress. Participants will be: - given Kangaroo mother care on third day of life or standard incubator care for one hour - Urine sample for oxidative stress biomarker will be collected via noninvasive method before and after Kangaroo mother care or conventional incubator care from premature neonates. - Mother-infant bonding scale will be filled by mothers of enrolled premature infants before and after kangaroo mother care and conventional incubator care


Clinical Trial Description

Researcher will follow existing guidelines for shifting of infant from incubator to the mother's chest. The researcher will assist the mothers to have the baby from the incubator and to sit in the special KMC chair and bed. Urine will be collected from premature infants before and after KMC/Incubator care on third day of life by applying urine collection bag. This method is highly successful in collecting urine non-invasively. Collected urine is then placed in ice box till transportation to lab at University of Health sciences(UHS). and stored at -80 °C. After completion of data collection enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay ELISA kit of Oxidative stress biomarker (Allantoin) will be used for checking level of Allantoin in stored samples within a week. Mothers of both the KMC and control groups will be given the Mother-infant bonding scale (MIBS) self-rating instrument on 3rd Day postpartum before and after KMC and incubator care for bonding assessment. ;
