Babywearing is the practice of carrying an infant in a baby carrier, which may provide an inexpensive, nonpharmacological intervention for the parent-infant dyads to handle mental stressors, such as pain and anxiety, especially among vulnerable infants. This study investigated the influence of babywearing on parent-infant autonomic coregulation based on the changes in the HR of mother-infant and father-infant dyads for infants with neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS). Guided by the Calming Cycle Theory as the framework, the correlation between parent HR and infant HR and the difference in the mother-infant dyad (n = 17) compared to the father-infant dyad (n = 8) were examined. Although only the mother-infant HRs reached statistical significance during babywearing (r̅ =.52, p = .03), both parent-infant dyads had strong correlations during babywearing (compared to pre- and post-babywearing conditions), indicating that babywearing, for parents and their infants with NAS, may influence autonomic coregulation.
背娃是指用婴儿背带背着婴儿的行为，这可能为母婴或父婴二元组提供一种廉价的非药物干预措施，以应对精神压力源，如疼痛和焦虑，尤其是在脆弱的婴儿中。本研究基于新生儿戒断综合征（NAS）婴儿的母婴和父婴二元组心率变化，调查了背娃对母婴自主神经共同调节的影响。以平静周期理论为框架，研究了父母心率与婴儿心率之间的相关性，以及母婴二元组（n = （此处原文可能有误，推测是 =17））与父婴二元组（n = 8）之间的差异。虽然在背娃期间只有母婴心率达到统计学显著性（r̅ =.52，p = 0.03），但两个母婴二元组在背娃期间（与背娃前和背娃后情况相比）都有很强的相关性，这表明背娃对于患有NAS的父母及其婴儿可能会影响自主神经共同调节。
