| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| LATCH | 30 day | It was developed by Jensen and Wallace in 1994 in order to perform breastfeeding assessment objectively and systematically, to identify breastfeeding problems, to establish a common language among healthcare professionals and to be used in studies. It is similar to the apgar score system in terms of scoring method. This measurement tool consists of five assessment items. The word LATCH is a combination of the first letters of the English equivalents of these items. |
| Neonatal Stress Scale | 30 day | The neonatal stress scale developed by Ceylan and Bolışık consists of a total of 24 items in 3-point Likert type. The scale items include 8 subgroups including facial expression, body colour, respiration, activity level, comfort, muscle tone, extremities and posture and each subgroup is evaluated between 0-2 points in scoring. A minimum score of 0 and a maximum score of 16 points are obtained from the scale. As the score increases, the stress level of the baby increases simultaneously. |
