A study of visiting patterns to an intensive care nursery over a 6-month period was undertaken. Data on visits were obtained from 167 admissions, 99 of which were from infants transferred from other towns. In addition, the parents were interviewed to determine factors precluding visiting. Inborn (Group A) and out-of-town (Group B) data were analyzed. For Group A, the mean number of weekly visits was 6.59 (range, 1.7-16.5) and the total cost of visiting during hospitalization was $135.00 (range, 5.76-649.36); for Group B, the figures were 3.6 (range, 0.1-12.4) and $328.00 (range, 12.96-1523.36), respectively. Parents in Group B visited less often, made fewer telephone inquiries, and earned a lower salary than parents in Group A. Frequency of visits was correlated to social class. The most commonly identified factors limiting visiting were care of siblings, demands of work, cost of the trip, and distance.
对重症监护新生儿病房6个月期间的探视模式进行了一项研究。关于探视的数据来自167例入院病例，其中99例是从其他城镇转诊来的婴儿。此外，还对家长进行了访谈，以确定妨碍探视的因素。对本地出生婴儿（A组）和外地婴儿（B组）的数据进行了分析。A组每周探视的平均次数为6.59次（范围为1.7 - 16.5次），住院期间的探视总费用为135.00美元（范围为5.76 - 649.36美元）；B组的相应数字分别为3.6次（范围为0.1 - 12.4次）和328.00美元（范围为12.96 - 1523.36美元）。B组的家长探视频率较低，电话询问较少，收入也比A组的家长低。探视频率与社会阶层相关。最常被提及的限制探视的因素是照顾兄弟姐妹、工作需求、旅途费用和距离。
