Babies born very early had stronger neurodevelopmental performance at 1 year if they received more skin-to-skin care as newborns, a Stanford Medicine study found.
The study was published online July 11 in the Journal of Pediatrics .
Preemies born at least three weeks early were less likely to be developmentally delayed at a year of age .
Babies in the study averaged about 17 minutes a day of skin-to-skin care.
An average of 20 minutes more per day was associated with a 10 -point increase on the scoring scale used for neurodevelopment.
Packard Children’s recently expanded its infant developmental care program by hiring neurodevelopmental nurse practitioners, more physical and occupational therapists.
