Marte meo: interaction intervention with video feedback

Social interaction and communication between, for example, parent and child are important factors in promoting positive development of the child. Marte meo is used to support, among others, guardians, teachers, and caregivers in their interaction with children, students, or patients. Video recordings of daily interactions are analysed to promote positive interaction and development.

SBU Enquiry Service

Consists of structured literature searches to highlight studies that can address questions received by the SBU Enquiry Service from Swedish healthcare or social service providers. We assess the risk of bias in systematic reviews and when needed also quality and transferability of results in health economic studies. Relevant references are compiled by an SBU staff member, in consultation with an external expert when needed.

Question

What scientific studies and systematic reviews are there on Marte meo as a method to support guardians or caregivers in the social interaction with children and patients?

Identified literature

One relevant systematic review was identified, but as the risk of bias was high, the authors´ conclusions are not presented here [1]. Five primary studies were identified [2-6]. The primary studies were not assessed for risk of bias.
