Evaluate the effect of parental protective factors on parental stress at time of NICU admission and prior to discharge.
Parents of infants born at <35 weeks gestation were approached at a single level III NICU. Consenting parents completed a questionnaire on admission and prior to infant's discharge of demographic information and three validated instruments: (1) parental stress (PSS:NICU), (2) Parents' Assessment of Protective Factors (PAPF), and (3) health literacy (PHLAT-8).
Mean PSS:NICU Total score was 2.8 ± 0.9 (Time 1) and 2.6 ± 1.1 (Time 2). Mean PAPF scores in all subcategories were high (means >3, ±0.3-0.5) (Time 1, Time 2). There was no clinically significant association between PSS:NICU scores and PAPF or any of the other measured variables.
PAPF and other commonly implicated factors were not associated with perceived self-reported parental stress at time of NICU admission and prior to discharge.
评估父母保护因素对新生儿重症监护病房（NICU）入院时和出院前父母压力的影响。
在一家三级 NICU 中，对胎龄<35 周的婴儿的父母进行了调查。同意的父母在入院时和婴儿出院前完成了一份问卷，内容包括人口统计学信息和三个经过验证的工具：（1）父母压力量表（PSS：NICU），（2）父母评估保护因素量表（PAPF），和（3）健康素养量表（PHLAT-8）。
PSS：NICU 总分的平均值为 2.8±0.9（时间 1）和 2.6±1.1（时间 2）。所有亚类别的 PAPF 评分均较高（平均值>3，±0.3-0.5）（时间 1，时间 2）。PSS：NICU 评分与 PAPF 或任何其他测量变量之间没有临床显著关联。
在 NICU 入院时和出院前，PAPF 和其他常见的相关因素与自我报告的父母压力无关。
