First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026

Summary

This study looked at whether having a parent help during diaper care makes preterm babies more comfortable. Researchers measured comfort levels in 105 preterm infants before, during, and after diaper changes done by a nurse alone versus with a mother or father. They also tracked parental stress. The goal was to see if parent involvement improves the baby's experience.
