The search focus on clinical decision-making, guidelines, expert consensus, evidence summaries, and systematic reviews. The search timeframe should cover from the inception of each database to June 2024. Literature was subjected to quality appraisal, and only high-quality sources were included for evidence extraction and synthesis.Results:A total of eight documents were included, consisting of one clinical decision-making, five guidelines, one expert consensus, and one systematic review. A total of 23 best practice recommendations were extracted and categorized into six domains: team composition and training, indications and contraindications, pre-implementation preparation, implementation protocols, implementation recommendations, and precautions.Conclusions:This study provides a comprehensive summary of current evidence related to early maternal-neonatal skin-to-skin contact during cesarean section.
