Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Kangaroo care involves skin-to-skin contact between the parent and the baby. This method helps to regulate the baby's body temperature, heart rate, and breathing, and has been shown to be effective in stabilizing preterm infants. It also encourages bonding between the parent and the baby. The other options, such as the Lamaze method, acupuncture, and schema therapy, are not relevant in this situation and would not have a direct impact on the baby's medical condition.
