Assessment

Primary outcomes

The primary outcome was the score on the Mother-Infant Bonding Scale (MIBS) reported by the parents one month after the baby's birth.

Key secondary outcomes

Secondary outcomes included the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), the Family Image Technique (FIT), and salivary oxytocin levels measured twice after delivery and once at one month postpartum for both parents. The Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) was administered to mothers one month postpartum. Additionally, we recorded single milking capacity and visiting rate.
Participants in the web camera group completed a survey regarding their use of the web camera. Upon completion of the study, we conducted a survey with healthcare providers to assess the workflow impact of using the web camera.
