Impact of the Problem on the Patient
The impact of lack of education regarding skin to skin/kangaroo care can have many
negative effects. It can interrupt the initial bond between the mother and her baby, prevent the
baby from getting body warmth for temperature regulation, and lack of skin to skin can also
hinder oxytocin production which is important for breastfeeding.
Impact of the Problem on the Organization
The impact of lack of education regarding skin to skin/kangaroo care may cause the
organization to have a negative reputation. If the nurses are not informed and educated about
importance of skin to skin, they cannot implement it in the work place. Evidence based practice
is very important in an organization and if an organization is not up to date with current practice,
patients may leave unsatisfied of their care.

Research Article
Background Introduction
As per the research article by Allen et. Al. 2019, as the births are being conducted more
in hospitals now, the separation between mothers and their babies have increased which has
caused a decline in skin to skin contact. Skin to skin contact, as per the researchers, is vital in the
first few hours of birth as it stimulates oxytocin production. It also helps regulate the baby’s
temperature and blood sugar levels and creates a protective bond between the mother and the
baby. The researchers of this article reviewed some literature and found that in some studies
women had uninterrupted skin to skin contact with their babies and in other studies skin to skin
was interrupted by medical interventions. The researchers also noted that women who had c-
sections were less likely to hold their babies for longer during the first hours of birth. The
researchers constructed their study to fill in the gaps in the previous studies as they had not
specified if there was skin to skin contact or just baby holding; which parent held the baby, and
there was some vagueness in the timings. The researchers conducted their study to determine
points like how often was immediate and uninterrupted skin to skin and breastfeeding happened,
and the factors that encouraged or prevented them (Allen et. Al., 2019).
Methodology
The researchers had a cross sectional design with purposive sampling. They distributed
anonymous e-surveys through social media and maternity networks. They created a 26 item
survey of which the first 17 were closed response items where they were asked about the first 60
