[Health visit to the newborn].
Each child's medical record was reviewed to pick out any health problems detected in 1) the Newborn Checkup, 2) the first 15 days of life, and 3) during the child's first year. The number of visits was also recorded. Each mother was interviewed about the acceptability/usefulness of these checkups. The newborn checkup facilitates compliance with programmed checkups in the health plan for a healthy child. This program is useful to detect health problems precociously, to increase the knowledge mothers possess, to build confidence in nurses, and in general, to build up links with the pediatrics services of a health center.
