Official title
Improving the Transition to Home for Moderate to Late Preterm Infants Admitted to the NICU Through Parent Education and Discharge Preparation
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The goal of this clinical trial is to improve the transition to home for preterm infants born between 33-36 weeks gestational age and discharged from the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) through the use of two interventions, a "NICU Discharge Passport" and "NICU Infant Care Class," for parents. The main question\[s\] the clinical trial aims to answer are the impact of the above discharge interventions on: * parental readiness for discharge * feasibility of compliance with discharge instructions * number of ER/urgent visits and hospital re-admission rates 1-month post-discharge Participants will include parents/guardians and nurses of eligible preterm infants discharged from the Cohen Children's Medical Center NICU. Baseline data will be collected for a period of 4-6 months for a control group (who will receive current NICU discharge practices), after which two interventions will be implemented for a period of 4-6 months to the intervention groups. Interventions will include: a) NICU Discharge Passport and b) NICU Infant Care Class. Data collection will include pre and post-discharge surveys for parent and nurse participants in charge of discharging the eligible infant participant. Surveys will assess parental readiness for discharge, compliance with discharge instructions, ER/urgent visits post-discharge, hospital re-admission rates post-discharge, and if applicable, obtain feedback on interventions. Researchers will compare responses between control and intervention groups to understand the impact of the interventions on parental discharge preparedness.
