The investigator used a semistructured interview and McCubbin's Familial Invulnerability Test to examine how mothers and fathers cope with caring for a cardiorespiratory-monitored infant in the home. Content analysis of interview data showed that the persistent gravity of the situation and fears of incompetency in managing their infant's care, coupled with inadequate respite, were the greatest source of hardship for parents. Informational and emotional support from family members and professionals were resources used to manage this experience. Both emotion-focused and problem-focused strategies were used to cope with this situation.
研究者采用半结构化访谈和麦库宾的家庭抗逆力测试，以考察父母如何在家中照顾接受心肺监测的婴儿。对访谈数据的内容分析表明，情况的持续严重性、对照顾婴儿能力不足的恐惧，再加上休息不足，是父母面临的最大困难来源。来自家庭成员和专业人士的信息和情感支持是他们应对这种经历所利用的资源。父母采用了以情绪为中心和以问题为中心的策略来应对这种情况。
