The use of the hammock improves the ability to reach and maintain behavioral states. Behavioral states will be evaluated using the Modified Brazelton Scale (EBM) and will be collected in six moments classified as follows: (Moment 0) 5 minutes before the newborn is positioned in the hammock, (Moment 1) with 30 minutes of positioning, (Moment 2) with 1 hour of positioning, (Moment 3) in the last minute before removing the newborn from the hammock, (Moment 4) after 5 minutes after the newborn was removed from the hammock, and (Moment 5 ) 30 minutes after the newborn was removed from the net. The Modified Brazelton Scale (EBM) (aims to show through the identification of behavior, what the newborn wants to say, analyzing motor activity in relation to stimuli. The EBM assesses six behavioral states: deep sleep, sleep mild, drowsy, awake, fully awake, and intense crying.Newborn assessment is performed by direct observation, which will classify the behavior into one of six states.
