Kangaroo Mother Care
#Editorial
Overview
Our client was working with the Bangladeshi government to create educational content that local paramedics can use to educate the communities in the rural regions of Bangladesh.
To supplement our client’s e-learning courses and presentations, we created educational illustrations that would support the paramedics in teaching the community members about Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC).
What is Kangaroo Mother Care?
Kangaroo Mother Care is a method of care for low-birth-weight and premature babies. The method involves the infant being carried, usually by the mother, with skin-to-skin contact.
Studies have found that by holding your baby skin-to-skin, it can stabilize the heart and respiratory rates, improve oxygen saturation rates, better regulate an infant’s body temperature and conserve a baby’s calories.
