About this trial

This study aims to explore parents' experiences and emotional burdens related to their newborn's hospital stay using an online survey. Our target population consists of parents of newborns born preterm, with low birthweight, or critically ill. Particularly the presence of infant- and family-centred developmental care (IFCDC) principles as well as support through political framework conditions will be investigated.
