SANTOS, María Soledad. Construction Of An Observation Scale Of The Bond Mother - Baby Interned In NICU: Preliminary Results Of The Observational Protocol Administration. Anu. investig. [online]. 2008, vol.15. ISSN 1851-1686.

In this article the Observation Scale of the bond mother - baby interned in Neonatal Intensive care Unit (NICU), and the preliminary results obtained in the administration, will be presented. The scale includes 5 functions: approach, corporal, visual, verbal and posture function. The observations took place in the NICU of three hospitals, in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The frequencies of the communicative behaviours observed and the analysis of the punctuations, will be presented. In order to study the capacity of the scale detecting cases of "adequate bond mother -baby" and "risk in the bond" , we estimated the sensitivity (0.75), specificity (1), positive predictive value (1), negative predictive value (0.84) and total of correct predictions (0.89). The existence of a observational method for the bond will allow to enhance preventive interventions in the perinatal mental health area.
