Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The Kangaroo Unit (UK) takes care of newborns requiring special care or monitoring for a pathology whose clinical situation is stable and whose prognosis is favorable. In order to avoid separating mother and child, these units were created with a care pathway somewhere between that requiring hospitalization in a neonatal unit and that of pathology-free newborns in post-natal care. Theoretically, the mother-child bond created in the UK is as good as that created in conventional post-natal care. However, studies show that there are limits to the quality of the bond in the UK. This study aims to assess whether the mother-child bond is degraded in the UK, in comparison with that of mothers in post-natal care.
