Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
1. Early stimulation of the newborn. The technique of auditory, tactile, visual and vestibular multi-sensory stimulation (VCTA) is used.
2. This therapy performs the hearing of the stimulus with the voice of the mother, the touch of the stimulus with the realization of an ordered and sequential massage; Visual stimulation with visual contact with his mother and vestibular stimulation with slow movements in the arms of the mother
3. ATVV therapy is performed according to the Rice Protocol modified by White-Traut and Contributors and lasts for 15 minutes.
4. Mothers received training in therapy by a nurse. A video was used to do the demonstration of each stimulation and neonatal behavioral responses showing pleasure with the stimulus. The video lasted 6 minutes. Then a recording gives continuous instructions to the mother step by step during the performance of the stimulation therapy
5. During the first application an understanding checklist is made
6. To promote adhesion, the mother is given a headset set with recorded instructions
7. At home, mothers performed therapy by listening to recorded instructions, twice a day for 7 days

Statistical methods / analysis
Sample size: Was calculated to establish differences between and within groups with repeated measurements. alpha: probability of incurring type I error Beta: probability of incurring type II error Delta: upper bound of the standard deviation from the valuesproduced by the total variable of the scale used deviation standard: Minimum difference between the means of the groups to establish the value of beta K: number of groups
Values established for the sample of the sample. alpha = 0.04 beta= 0.01 Delta = 0.8s K = 2 Taking into account these precisions of the required size is 60 dyads. The size of the global sample previously identified by 120 dyads, ie 60 dyads per group.


Inferential Statistics:
To test the hypotheses raised, a normality test will be performed first to determine the distribution of each of the variables. Once established, a path of analysis with parametric tests will be considered according to the normal distribution and for the non-normal distribution, a path of analysis with non-parametric tests. The significance of the tests is set at p: <0.05. The analyzes follow two different ways, one to compare two groups (the experimental and the control); And the other to compare the group with itself at two different time points, in the first 14 days and 4 to 6 weeks

Summary
Brief summary
Contrary to popular conceptions, mothers and newborns do not spend the best time of their lives once birth occurs. Both go through a period of physiological adjustments , emotional and behavioral, which are reflected in the affectation of physical and emotional well-being. This adaptation is influenced by contextual factors peculiar to a developing country such as poverty or low level of schooling; Which can lead to consequences such as postpartum depression in the mother and delayed growth and development in children (12,17-19). In Colombia, no support or rigorous follow-up strategies are available during this sensitive period for mother and child dyads (20,21). The multimodal auditory, tactile, vestibular and visual stimulation (VCTA) has been studied since 1980 and is known to favor the premature newborn and its growth has ended; Decreases stress; Favors the organization of neonatal behavior and improves mother-child interaction. When the mother offers it, there has been a decrease in depressive symptoms. Objective: To measure the results of the multisensory stimulation ATVV performed by the mother to her newborn, in the adaptation to the birth of the mother and child dyad. Method: A quasi-experimental, blind study using the design of equivalent materials, with repeated post-test measurements. Expected Results: Performing the stimulation (VCTA) by the mother to her newborn will generate positive results in: 1. The synchrony of mother and child interaction. 2. Decreased depressive symptoms in the mother. 3. Health and maternal energy level. 4. Effective neonatal suction. 5. Neonatal growth and development. In this way, adaptation to the birth of the mother and child dyad will be favored.
