Survey on the practice of skin-to-skin contact in Spanish neonatal units during the first days of life. Influence of the presence of umbilical catheters
There is significant variability in the timing of SSC initiation in PTNBs in Spain, and the use of UVCs has been identified as a potential barrier to early implementation. The existence of clinical guidelines or protocols could help improve PTNB care and standardize practices across different units.
