摘要：

PURPOSE. This study aims to detect differences in outcomes for very preterm infants after the introduction of developmental care in a neonatal nursery, and to evaluate the effect of developmental care on parental well-being. DESIGN AND METHODS. Prospective before and after cohort study of very preterm babies, with education for all staff between cohorts. RESULTS. No significant differences were found between cohorts for short-term outcomes for babies or parental anxiety levels or depression. All infants scored within normal temperament ranges at 4 months. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS. Developmental care is a safe practice model. The interdisciplinary study facilitated professional development and increased the knowledge of nurses.
