Brief Summary:
This study evaluated the efficacy of a comprehensive three-part program for parents of premature infants This program was designed to improve development in preterm children and includes an educational video tests to evaluate the childs strengths and abilities and instruction in infant massage
Detailed Description:
Premature birth is a major cause of developmental delay and cost-effective replicable methods to promote development in preterm children are needed Despite the success of first generation interventions little is understood about why early intervention does not affect all parents and preterms to the same degree
This study assessed the efficacy of a three-component intervention psychoeducational video serial administrations of the Brazelton Neonatal Behavioral Assessment Scale and parent-administered infant massage that targets preterm infants and their mothers and fathers Outcome measures included infant physical intellectual and socioemotional development parental sensitivity and infant-parent attachment The project also assessed the role of parental state of mind regarding attachment and parental commitment to the intervention
Participants in this study were urban African American mothers and fathers of preterm low birthweight infants admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit Fathers were eligible for the study if nominated by the childs mother Participants were randomly assigned to an intervention group or a control group Both groups were comparable with respect to race maternal pregnancy history education income presenceabsence of partner infant gestational age infant small-for-date status and infant gender
The intervention group viewed a videotape about preterm infant abilities Over the course of the study the intervention group administered infant massage and completed multiple administrations of the Brazelton Neonatal Behavioral Assessment Scale with increasing parental involvement
The intervention began when infants were 32 to 36 weeks post-conceptual age PCA and ended when infants are 52 to 56 weeks PCA The efficacy of the intervention and the moderating roles of adult attachment and parental commitment to the intervention were evaluated in terms of infant physical mental motor and social development and parental adjustment and sensitivity to the infant during the first 2 years
