According to this study, it is seen that there is a successful implementation of KMC in families at the community level. |

The use of KMC to encourage breastfeeding. Establishing potential dose-response effects, optimal initiation timing, and physiological benefits for newborns throughout the transition to extra-uterine life is the main goal of this study. |

This updated review encourages using KMC in place of traditional newborn care for LBW infants, especially in places with limited resources. More research is necessary for the long-term neurocognitive outcomes and the safety and effectiveness of early onset continuous KMC in LBW newborns. |
Mekonnen et al [15] |

KMC encourages prior initiation of breastfeeding. As a result, hospitals must implement the KMC program for premature and LBW babies. |
El-Farrash et al. [18] |

Preterm infants who get KC for extended periods reach full enteral feeds more quickly, breastfeeding gets successful, perform better neurologically and behaviorally, have better temperature regulation, and have better tissue oxygenation. |
Jayaraman et al. [19] |

According to this study, Early KMC dramatically boosted direct breastfeeding and exclusive human milk feeding in LBW newborns. |

This study shows the benefit of KMC in rural areas with limited resources. Results are better than those reported for comparable groups not performing KMC in rural sub-Saharan Africa and are equivalent to KMC programs in metropolitan regions when neonates start KMC after stabilization. |
Bajaj et al [25] |

By focusing appropriately on the areas where knowledge, attitude, and practices are deficient, the results of KMC can be improved. The level of knowledge in this study seemed to not affect on either attitude or practice. |

The results of this trial will have global repercussions in the future, not only on the postpartum treatment of LBW newborns but also on the adoption of the mother-neonatal intensive care unit (M-NICU) paradigm for NICU architecture. |

Mothers who engaged in mindfulness exercises while providing kangaroo care (KC) reported that Mindful Kangaroo Care (MKC) was acceptable, and practical, and reduced their stress, anxiety, and depression. |

This systematic review's goal was to discover practicing enablers as well as the most commonly mentioned obstacles to KMC adoption. |

Neonatal mortality post-enrolment and mortality occurring between enrolment and 6 months of age are the primary outcomes of this study. The secondary outcomes include breastfeeding practices, the prevalence of diseases and seeking medical attention for the same, hospitalizations, increase in weight and length, and, in a subsample, neurodevelopment. |
Deng et al. [36] |

The study’s purpose is to know the security and consequences of paternal SSC on preterm infants' neurocognitive outcomes. |
Rasaily et al [38] |

According to the study, it was possible to offer KMC using the current infrastructure, and the majority of mothers of LBW infants considered the method to be acceptable. |
