Resumen
[ES]En la actualidad, la cifra de mortalidad y morbilidad de prematuros y recién nacidos de bajo peso es elevada. Distintas intervenciones van dirigidas a paliar esas cifras de morbimortalidad. Una de esas intervenciones es el Método Madre Canguro (MMC), que consiste en el contacto piel con piel entre el niño y su madre, y es un método eficaz, sencillo y económico. Los objetivos planteados han sido: analizar los beneficios que el método madre canguro aporta al niño prematuro y al recién nacido de bajo peso, y conocer aquellos beneficios que éste produce sobre la madre y el padre, para ello se han revisado diferentes bases de datos, y se han analizado 37 artículos, de los cuales se han obtenido diferentes resultados, y como conclusión se ha obtenido que este método tiene grandes beneficios a nivel fisiológico, psicológico y emocional tanto para los padres como para los hijos, aunque aún quedan por hacer estudios que expliquen el motivo de su poco uso.
