Abstract

Background: Premature infants are prone to loose skin stimulation through skin contact with the amniotic fluid and the uterine wall of the mother during the intrauterine phase. This situation becomes one of the decisive factors in the growth and development of infants’ nerves. In addition to the initial sensory deficiency, prematurity raises other related factors such as the absence of bonding between the mother and the newborns due to the need to remain in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Prematurity also has adverse effects on the psychological and biological development of the children and the parents’ welfare. Aims: The aim of this study was to analyze the literature relating to holistic care in massage and music therapy for premature infants and summarize the benefits of both therapies. Methods: The method used in finding articles was a literature review, using the keywords. Search was conducted electronically using several databases, including Pubmed, Science Direct, and Google Scholar Results: The massage and music therapy contribute positive impact on infant development. Massage therapy not only provides comfort but also improves sleep quality, insulin levels, pulse frequency and body temperature, and induces weight gain. Likewise, music therapy helps to accelerate the baby's growth by reducing the effects of psychological stress. Conclusion: Massage and music therapy have benefits for premature infants growth.

Abstract

Background: The government has been supporting expecting mothers by providing pregnancy education courses in order to improve the quality of mother and child health and to reduce maternal mortality rate (MMR) and infant mortality rate (IMR). However, the existing activities are felt to be ineffective to accelerate the decline of MMR and IMR, therefore the government is reorganising its program by emphasising in knowledge and changes in mother and family behaviour.

The research was designed by using Quasi-Experiment Wilcoxon statistical techniques. Results: From Wilcoxon test, the results demonstrate a level of knowledge in the control group with a score of 0.59 sig (p>0.05). In the treatment group sig 0.05 (p>0.005) indicates a significant difference between the group using flip charts and the flash card group. From the Mann-Whitney test, the results yield sig 0.002 (p>0.005) which shows that flash card proved to increase the level of knowledge of pregnancy. Conclusion: Counselling using a flash card is an effective method to educate the expecting mothers to better understand the knowledge of pregnancy health.
