ABSTRACT
Objective: To determine the prevalence of skin-to-skin contact (STSC) and breastfeeding (BF) stimulation, as well as the reasons for these practices not to be performed; to identify whether women were given information on these practices along the pre-natal monitoring.
Method: A cross-sectional study carried out in a university hospital with 586 women. Data collection was from February to September 2016. Data was collected from patient records and from a questionnaire. A descriptive analysis was performed.
Results: Immediately after birth, 60.1% of the newborns (NBs) had STSC, and 44.9% were stimulated to suck at the breast. After primary care, 24.1% had STSC, and 69.3% were stimulated to suck at the breast; 47.7% of the newborns did not have STSC due to their unfavorable clinical conditions; 79.2% of the women were not able to inform the reason why BF was not stimulated; 58.5% of the women had pre-natal guidance about STSC, and 90.8% about BF.
Conclusion: Both STSC and BF rates could be improved, in view of the benefits provided by these practices.

INTRODUCTION:
The implementation of good childbirth care practices is recommended by government initiatives to qualify care and to reduce the use of interventions deemed unnecessary.
The Child Friendly Hospital Initiative (Iniciativa Hospital Amigo da Criança, IHAC) in fourth step of the “Ten Steps to Successful Breastfeeding” recommends that the professionals help mothers initiate breastfeeding stimulation within the first hour after birth, favoring skin to skin contact immediately after delivery for at least one hour1.
The Stork Network, established in 2011 by the Ministry of Health,
"consists of a care network aimed at ensuring women the right to reproductive planning and humanized care for pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium, as well as to the child the right to safe birth and healthy growth and development”2.
In the childbirth component, it addresses the "evidence-based health care practices, according to the following 1996 World Health Organization document: Good childbirth and childbirth care practices" and, in the puerperal component and comprehensive child health care, the "promotion of breastfeeding"2.
Thus, among the good practices of attention, skin-to-skin contact (STSC) and breastfeeding stimulation (BF) immediately after birth stand out, which provide important advantages for mother and the newborn (NB)3-4.
The benefits of STSC for the NB are better first-feeding effectiveness, reduced time to develop effective suction, regulation and maintenance of the NB body temperature, and cardiorespiratory stability. For women, there is a decrease in pain caused by breast engorgement, a feeling of relief, safety and a decrease in anxiety developed during pregnancy. In addition, STSC may result in better breastfeeding rates in the first four months after delivery, longer breastfeeding, better affection and attachment behavior of the mother, bonding, feelings of happiness, love, tranquility and comfort for the woman and the NB. This mix of feelings causes a woman to divert her attention from the discomfort and pain of childbirth to the pleasure of being with her NB3-4.
Breastfeeding also includes short- and long-term advantages for newborns and women. Short-term breastfeeding immediately after birth prevents neonatal morbidity and mortality and is associated with longer duration of breastfeeding and longer exclusive breastfeeding. For women, it favors oxytocin release and has a protective effect on maternal mood disorders. In the long term, among the benefits is the better motor development of NBs, as well as the reduced risk of diseases such as diabetes, obesity, gastroenteritis, among others. Women have lactational amenorrhea, decreased risk of developing type 2 diabetes, breast and ovarian cancers, and lose weight faster5-6.
Breast milk is the food with the highest amount of nutrients and immunological agents that protect the NB of infections, which are the main causes of neonatal mortality. Thus, immediate BF at birth is essential for the NB and prevents 22% of the neonates from dying of infections as well as it assists in the prevention of bleeding in puerperal women, which is the leading cause of maternal death currently5,7. BF still brings long-term benefits to the child, such as higher school performance, higher IQ, and longer study time8.
The combination of STSC and BF has a more effective analgesic effect and recovery after a painful procedure. This was confirmed after evaluating the NB, who had a shorter crying duration, decreased heart rate and increased breastfeeding frequency6.
The systematic review and meta-analysis of the effect of STSC between mother and child soon after birth showed that the practice had a significantly positive effect on success and duration of first breastfeeding9.
Given the benefits provided by performing STSC and BF for women and newborns and the rates presented, this study had the following as its guiding question: How is the skin-to-skin contact practice and breastfeeding stimulation in a university hospital?
The objectives of this study are to determine the prevalence of STSC and breastfeeding immediately after birth and reasons for not performing it; and to identify if women received information about these prenatal practices. It is considered that the findings will allow us to identify the advances in the performance of these practices, as well as opportunities for improvement, and to guide the proposition of evidence-based actions on the means to increase STSC and BF rates, aiming at the qualification of care.
METHOD
This study is derived from a research entitled “Care practices implemented during the parturition and birth process”. This is a quantitative cross-sectional study, developed at the Obstetric Inpatient Unit (UIO) of a university hospital in a large city in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, a public and university institution, part of the network of University hospitals of the Ministry of Education and linked to the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul. In 2011, it joined the Stork Network and is certified by the Child Friendly Hospital Initiative. The maternity serves usual-risk pregnant women and is a reference for attending high-risk pregnant women. In 2018, it had a mean of 293 births per month, most of them from the Unified Health System (Sistema Único de Saúde, SUS).
The sample calculation considered the proportion of BF in the first hour of life of the NB of 68%, and the difference between the proportions of the NB whose Odds Ratio(OR) is 0.610, 80% power and 5% significance level. The sample consisted of 586 women and their NBs.
The sample included parturient women who remained for two hours or more in labor and had their deliveries at the Obstetric Center, with live NBs with a gestational age of 37 weeks or older, according to the Capurro method. Women undergoing elective or emergency caesarean section, cases of fetal death and malformation, cases of twinning and those who were hospitalized for health insurance or self-funding were excluded from the study and from the study from which this study was derived.
The data collection period occurred from February to September 2016, was held after the postpartum woman or her guardian, when underage, signed the Free and Informed Consent Form. Data was obtained from the postpartum women and their NBs medical records and through a questionnaire applied to the postpartum woman after the first 12 hours postpartum. A descriptive analysis of the data was performed using the SPSS software version 18.
As the dependent variable skin-to-skin contact and breastfeeding was considered and, as independent variables, age, race, marital status, schooling, number of prenatal consultations, prenatal care professional, number of pregnancies, parity, type delivery, weight, Apgar score and the information/guidance received.
The larger project was submitted and approved by the Research Committee of the UFRGS School of Nursing (Opinion No. 30187) and the Research Ethics Committee of the institution where the study was developed (Opinion No. 15-0519). The study met the terms of resolution 466/2012.
RESULTS
The sample of this study consisted of 586 postpartum women. Regarding the sociodemographic, prenatal and obstetric characteristics (Table 1), it was found that most were white, aged between 20 and 35 years old, with complete high school, with a partner, performed six or more prenatal consultations, were nulliparous and had the current vaginal delivery.
Regarding the characterization of the NBs, it was found that 98.1% had a weight greater than or equal to 2500g, 89.2% had an Apgar score greater than or equal to seven in the first minute and 99.1% an Apgar score greater than or equal to seven in the fifth minute.
The following is the data related to receiving STSC information/guidance. Among the interviewees, 265 (45.2%) reported that they were informed/oriented about this practice at the Obstetric Center Unit (OCU) and the Obstetric Internment Unit (OIU) of the studied institution; 53 (9.0%) women attended prenatal care; 30 (5.1%) attended guidance in the media; 23 (3.9%) were informed by friends and family; 11 (1.9%) obtained information in the group of prenatal pregnant women; 8 (1.4%) were oriented at another hospital; 3 (0.5%) obtained information in their vocational training (health area); and 3 (0.5%) already knew this information due to previous pregnancies. Some women reported having obtained STSC information from more than one source.
Regarding the sources of information about breastfeeding during pregnancy, the highest percentage of women (77.1%) obtained it from the OCU and the OIU of the institution where the research was conducted, followed by prenatal consultation (20%), friends and family (8.4%), the media (6.5%), the pregnant group (2.2%), another hospital (1.9%), health professional training (0.9%), previous pregnancy (0.7%) and neonatal intensive care unit (0.2%). It is noteworthy that some women received information from more than one source.
In Graph 1 below, the frequency of the actions related to STSC by the health team is presented, according to the maternal report. It was found that 350 (60.1%) NBs performed STSC with their mothers immediately after delivery and 138 (24.1%) had STSC after the professional had performed the first care. It is noteworthy that some women reported performing STSC before and after the first care with newborns.
It is to be noted that 186 (32.7%) of the newborns did not experience STSC at any time.

Graph 2 shows the frequency of breastfeeding stimulation immediately after birth and after first NB care. Soon after birth, before the first care was performed, 245 (55.1%) newborns were not stimulated to BF. After the first care, 343 (69.3%) were stimulated to BF and, in 240 of them, suction succeeded and 103 did not suck. Non-breastfed infants and women who could not report why there was no stimulation of BF did not enter the frequency calculation.

When the woman answered that she did not perform STSC and did not have BF stimulated, she was asked why she did not perform these practices. The main reason mentioned by the women for not performing the practice was NB without clinical conditions, i.e., those who needed immediate care at birth, resuscitation maneuvers or who were transferred to the Neonatology Unit. Table 2 shows that 61 (47.7%) newborns did not perform STSC immediately at birth and 25 (40.3%) did not perform it after the first care, because the NBs were not in clinical conditions. About BF immediately after birth and after the first care, 190 (79.2%) and 105 (69.1%) women, respectively, could not inform what the reason was for not stimulating BF (Table 2). The “others” category includes the following reasons: OCU crowded, professional told the mother not to touch the NB, staff asked to take the NB, inappropriate environment, NB slept, the patient herself put the NB to suck.
After leaving the delivery room, women go through a period in the postpartum recovery room (PPRR). Regarding STSC during this period, it was found that 543 (92.7%) women remained with their NB. However, 39 (6.6%) pairs were separated because the baby did not have adequate clinical conditions, one (0.2%) woman was not clinically well and 3 (0.5%) NBs were separated from the mother to perform the first cares. Regarding BF, in 467 (88.1%) mother-infant pairs, it was found that BF was stimulated. Among those who were not stimulated (11.9%), 51 (81%) NBs showed no interest in breastfeeding, 5 (7.9%) women had no help putting NB to breastfeed, 3 (4.8%) women were not in clinical conditions, 3 (4.8%) NBs also had no favorable clinical conditions for BF, and 1 (1.5%) woman reported that the nurse asked not to stimulate BF until the effect of anesthesia passed.
DISCUSSION
In this survey it was found that most women had an appropriate number of prenatal appointments, as recommended by the Ministry of Health, which establishes at least six visits4. However, it is recommended that these consultations be interspersed between doctor and nurse4, which in this study occurred with less than half of women. Such a situation may be due to the fact, in many health units, nurses predominantly perform managerial activities; thus, a larger contingent of consultations is performed by the doctor.
Regarding the information obtained by the women about STSC and BF during prenatal care, there are deficiencies since, even with an adequate follow-up, most women did not receive information before STSC4. About BF, a research study11 showed that 55.2% of the women interviewed had information about BF in the first hour of life of the NB, similarly to the data found in this study. Another study12 points out that women who receive information about BF are three times more likely to practice exclusive BF. The findings12 point out that a good prenatal care, with appropriate and consistent guidelines, can influence women's decisions after birth and the continuity of BF.
Prenatal care is the opportune moment for orientation of the woman and her partner. It is essential that information on good practices of childbirth care be addressed during prenatal consultations and that the participation in a group of pregnant women is provided and encouraged, a space in which the exchange of knowledge and experiences is motivated. It is noteworthy that the consultations performed by nurses usually cover the holistic care of women, in addition to health education, and help in the role of women in their pregnancy-puerperal cycle. Nurses are certified and qualified to play the role of caregiver and educator, and health education is paramount for clinical nursing care13.
STSC and BF are practices that should be encouraged in the first postpartum hour, known as “the Golden Hour”. During this period, all the routines should be postponed due to the performance of STSC, which will bring physiological stability benefits to the mother-infant binomial, increasing attachment behavior, protecting against negative effects of maternal and child separation, supporting optimal development of the NB and promoting the stimulation of BF3-4. Thus, it is recommended that the first contact between mother and child be the STSC immediately after delivery, being provided and made possible by the care team14.
A study conducted in the Northeast of the country showed that the prevalence of the fourth step of the IHAC was 50.5%, but only 9.3% of the mother-baby pairs kept performing the fourth step after the first thirty minutes of life15. This early intimate contact, touching, looking, beginning of the mother-child bond, and stimulating BF is of paramount importance for the newly born life to begin its development in a healthier way16. The Ministry of Health recommends that 80% of the births fulfill the prerogatives of the fourth step of the IHAC. Immediately after birth, the NBs should be placed on the mother's lap and, when they show signs, BF should be stimulated1.
In the present research, the practice of STSC was evaluated before and after the first care. Comparing these data with those of a study conducted in 2012 at the same institution, it was found that there was a 290.2% increase in STSC before the first care and of 43.4% after the first care with the NB17. The STSC rate is expected to continue to increase as all the newborns in good clinical condition should be placed on their mother's lap immediately at birth. This finding shows that there were advances related to the qualification of care in these four years after the implementation of the Stork Network.
The systematic review data point to the overall prevalence of STSC by income level of the countries and show that this practice after normal delivery was relatively high among high-income, though oscillating. In Denmark, the prevalence of STSC reached a high rate of 96%, while Japan and Spain reported low rates, with 20% and 29%, respectively. Among upper-middle income countries, there was a wide variation in the STSC rate, with 9% in Mexico and 98% in Croatia. Brazil is part of this group, with STSC rates ranging from 34.1% to 41.9%. In middle-low income countries, the STSC rate ranged from 8% to 74%; in low-income countries, the practice was below 20%18.
Findings from a research study17 developed in 2012 at the institution where this study was conducted showed low rates of STSC and BF, with 15.4% of the newborns placed on STSC immediately at birth and 16.8% after the first care, 23.2% stimulated to BF immediately after birth and 57.9% after the first care.
When women were asked if, after the care, the NB returned to her lap to continue performing STSC, the vast majority responded that the NBs returned but were placed on their clothing, an action not characterized as STSC. This situation was also evidenced in other studies since the professionals did not favor that the STSC was performed properly, as they used surgical fields to protect the child from heat loss, and the maternal physiology and the contact of the NB with the mother makes for the NB to warm up and maintain body temperature14.
The main reasons for not performing STSC before and after the first care mentioned by the women in this study were the unfavorable clinical conditions of the mother and/or baby, reaffirming what was presented in the previous study in 201217, findings that differ from another research14, in which the reason would be at the request of the mother and due to the performance of the first cares. It is believed that a justification for not promoting STSC may be compliance with institutional routines, lack of knowledge on the part of the professionals, or even a shortage of human resources, which undoubtedly is a limiting factor for the implementation of good practices.
Regarding BF, in 2011, a survey was conducted in an IHAC-certified hospital that found that 31% of the NBs were breastfed within the first hour of life11; in the present study, 44.9% of the NBs were encouraged to breastfeed immediately at birth. In 2012, a similar survey was conducted at the same hospital as this survey, and a 93.5% increase in BF stimulation was observed immediately after birth, and of 19.5% after the first care, showing positive variations17. This finding shows that there have been improvements in the care practice; as a result, it is believed that there are margins for further progress in this area and the realization of good practices.
Regarding the reasons for not stimulating BF, the research shows the health problems of the NB, such as respiratory distress; maternal health problems such as preeclampsia and delay in the rapid anti-HIV test result11. The reasons found in this research include the unfavorable clinical situation of mother and baby, being the same reasons as the study conducted in 2012 in this institution17. However, a disturbing fact is that some women could not inform the reason for the non-occurrence of this practice. This situation indicates a possible communication failure between health team and user. It is essential that the parturient be informed about the issues surrounding her and the baby's care, reinforcing the relevance of health education.
It should be noted that the rates of mother and baby joint accommodation in the postpartum recovery room and BF stimulation had a significant result in the current study. For BF to be effective, women need the help of the health professionals, who must be technically and scientifically prepared for the encouragement and protection of the mother-baby pair16. In a study at the same institution, conducted in 2012, the joint accommodation of mother and NB in the PPRR had an insignificant increase of 5.6%, and BF in the PPRR had an increase of 21.7%17. To ensure the humanization of care, so that it is effective and consistent with the strategies of the Stork Network and the IHAC, it is necessary to raise professional awareness about the benefits of the practice for the mother and the NB.
Concurrently analyzing the practices, it is noteworthy that immediate and simultaneous BF with STSC has benefits, such as decreased bleeding, due to the release of endogenous oxytocin19. A cohort study shows that women who did not undergo STSC and BF soon after delivery were twice as likely to develop postpartum hemorrhage. Oxytocin plays a key role in postpartum uterine contraction to prevent bleeding, and STSC assists in adapting the NB to extrauterine life5.
CONCLUSIONS
It was found that 60.1% of the newborns in this study performed the STSC and that 44.9% were breastfed immediately at birth; however, these practices did not reach the percentage recommended by the Child Friendly Hospital Initiative and by the MoH. The women need information about the benefits of STSC and BF since prenatal so that, at birth, these practices make sense to women. We found that women were informed about the good practices during pregnancy, but most of these women received the information only in the obstetric center and obstetric hospitalization units of the studied institution; only a small number of women reported discussing the issue at prenatal consultations.
The most prevalent reason for not performing the STSC, both immediately after birth and after the first care, was the fact that the NB was not in good clinical conditions, which may justify the rates found, since the research was conducted in a reference hospital for the care of high-risk pregnant women. One fact that drew attention was a significant number of women who could not report the reason for not performing the good practices, which may characterize a deficiency in communication between the health team and puerperal woman.
It is considered essential that the entire health team be involved, supporting and enabling the execution of evidence-based practices in childbirth and birth care, with a view to advances in care indicators, especially in STSC and BF stimulation. Thus, in this study it was verified that the findings point to opportunities for improvement regarding the performance of these practices.
A possible limitation of the study was not knowing how long the first care took, since these data were reported by the women. One suggestion is to conduct new studies in order to know the point of view of the health professionals about the performance of STSC and BF immediately after birth.
