Prematurity and Parental Involvement in Child Development Care

CHU de Reims1 enrolled

Overview

The aims of the study is to evaluate the association between presence and parental participation in perinatal care and psychic development of the child at 24 months

In France, as in developed countries, the premature birth rate has been rising over the past few years. Premature labor is a particularly stressful birth. It is recognized that the level of parental stress is greater at a premature birth compared to a term birth. The neuro-developmental consequences of premature birth are important. A possible association between prematurity and the onset of mental disorders such as hyperactivity, inattention, emotional problems, conduct disorders, autistic disorders and social difficulties has been shown. It has been shown that parental presence, holding and skin to skin during hospitalization would be beneficial for the child's motor development and psychological well-being by reducing the stress of the child.
