摘要
This prospective cohort study was conducted at our tertiary care center from October, 2021 to April, 2022 to compare the parents' health-related quality of life (HRQoL) scores during neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) stay and at 3 months follow-up. Pediatric quality of life inventory (PedsQL) family impact module questionnaires were used in 46 mothers and 39 fathers during NICU stay, and 42 mothers and 38 fathers at 3-month follow-up. Greater proportions of mothers were severely affected and had higher stress levels as compared to fathers both during NICU stay (67.3% vs 48.7%) and at 3 months follow-up (62.7% vs 52.6%). Among the mothers, there was a significant improvement in individual and family functioning median (IQR) HRQL scores at 3-month follow-up [62 (48-83) vs 71(63-79)]. However, the proportion of mothers severely affected remained the same at NICU stay and 3-month follow-up (67.3% vs 62.7%).
